This is what Allure has on the top of the desk/vanity area, and below the counter, in our Balcony cabin. We purchased this a while back: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072K5ZJXF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It shows unavailable now, but they have tons of different ones out there. This one has a usb c for new ipads, and regular usb. Only uses one outlet , and can charge multiple devices at once. Don't bring a surge protector. They might take it due to a fire hazard. If you like Martinis, may I suggest Champagne Bar. It was our favorite spot, especially for pre-dinner drinks. It's been replaced on the newer ships by the bionic bar, and we definitely miss Champagne's! Enjoy your cruise. Allure is a beautiful ship and so much fun!

Agree with everyone. It just depends. One morning it's in the 20/30s and the same afternoon it's in the 70's. No telling down here, it's a crap shoot. Just look at the forecast about 5-7 days beforehand and that should give a pretty good idea. We've been on Eastern and Western Caribbean cruises during the winter months, and it's never been cold in the islands. The water was a little chilly a few times, but once you were in, it was fine. One of the coolest things about leaving out of NOLA, is if it's not too dark, when you leave the mouth of the Mississippi and enter the Gulf of Mexico. Pretty cool to see that. Enjoy your cruise!

Thanks for the detailed list of bourbons. Glad to see there is a decent selection onboard! Definitely miss the older days when they had high end bourbon on board every cruise!

Hope everyone has been doing great! We are booking a cruise on Mardi Gras for this winter and the wife is concerned about the quality of the food in the MDR. We've been on 7 cruises Pre-covid with carnival and always thought the food was great. Although they didn't really have many restaurants that had an additional cost (except 555 Steakhouse). We did take on cruise on RC on Allure of the Seas and the MDR food was horrible. The additional restaurants were delicious though. Any insights on the quality of the MDR, since they have so many additional options? We haven't cruised since Covid hit, so we are looking forward to getting back out there! Thanks as always for everyone's opinions and help! - Joshua
