Were covered with verizon while we're in Mexico but not on the sea day. We'll probably have to do the $2.99/minute verizon ship rate - & I'm sure you know how slow 93 year olds talk, haha!

Thanks, unfortunately the 93 year old we have to check on only does phone calls

So all Miracle cruises are to park at the convenrton center? I'm doing 4 day in a couple of weeks & have not gotten any notification

Has anyone been able to make wifi phone calls?

Can you use non refundable OBC for gratuities?

Are they still giving you $25 casino money in lieu of slot tournament?

Yes and yes

I will try that. How do they re-imburse? two items were older but very good condition (certain clothes only go on cruises )

Thanks for your answers. I have a gut feeling since the laundry bag was brown & the cabin steward appeared to be new, that it got thrown away. I wonder how they figure out what the value is - 2 of the items were older but the leggings were brand new & I had just purchased the vintage dress in Greece (and JUST threw the receipt away while I was preparing for this trip).

A more succinct word is feeling degraded when someone thinks we are only motivated by money.

Like I said, I was in the service business as a server for 40 years. Some people assumed we only responded to money, making us feel like all we were doing was performing a service to them, not seeing us as an individual. We really didn't like those people.

If you bring a bag of candy, EVERYONE gets something, not just the individual serving you. When I bring it for the IC, the coffee servers, baristas, food servers, bartenders all share.

Service people are not prostitutes - money is not as important as being treated as an individual.

I bring candy, especially at holiday time & they love it. Of course they are not children but everyone likes a little treat now & again. I worked in food service for 40 years & we always loved the people who brought us something special & different.

Hello, I sent laundry to be cleaned the first morning of the cruise as my Elite benefit. (Noticed that the bags were brown paper bags instead of the usual white bags). Never got it returned, talked to several people - they said they were searching other rooms that it could have been delivered to. I told them that if it had been cleaned & taken to the wrong room, I would have had a charge that shows up, then a credit. They didn't follow my logic. I said it probably had not been processed through to cleaning. I had to fill out a claim but I really want one of the 4 items back as it was vintage Italian (I know, I shouldn't have sent it). Has anyone ever gotten back lost laundry? I'm not very hopeful.

Can anyone confirm that the Discovery still has the tea in the dining room on at least a couple days of the cruise? I don't think they serve it every day any more

Since you have been to this lot - can a regular car go there & wait? LAX is such a hassle & I would love it if my husband could wait there & I take the shuttle

There is a free bus at LAX that takes you to the Uber lot

Haha, I wish I knew what al this means......

That's terrible! Half the joy of getting a room like that is looking forward to it .......and being escorted onto the ship, haha

Has anyone done internet calling on the Joy?

I'm sure you won't be contagious in 10 days?

The crepe station is my favorite part of NCL!!

Carnival's package includes drinks up to $20. I am now finding out that drinks that are covered on other lines are extra on NCL (coffee drinks, milkshakes, espresso martini, etc). I'm a little regretful of adding the package to my upcoming cruise. We don't drink a lot
