well...at least you have a nice cruise to enjoy....🥺

you had me at Tottenham Hotspur 🤩. Enjoy your trip, I'm two weeks behind you, which is a bummer because my husband would much prefer me dithering on about the Spurs to someone else!

I used Coca Beach Shuttle last fall and was extremely pleased with the service.

Fare was $46.00 to MIA. Was this from Port Everglades? We have an August cruise in Port Everglades but our return flight is out of Miami and I have been trying to research the best way to get there.

My husband and I routinely get offers for interior rooms or oceanview. He called Club Royale and because both of us had the offer they upgraded us to a hump balcony for free this August on Adventure. It's worth calling to see if you can get upgraded. Neither of us had made Prime, btw...but both of us had approx 1500 points.

Does the Breakaway casino have any Pai Gow poker tables?

I am staying at Harrah's the night before my cruise, as well. How far of a walk is it?

OP was asking for input from anyone with experience upgrading the free CAS room and I was just letting him know my experience wasn't "free" and what the charges are.

My CAS "Free at Sea" cabin cost me about 1600 bucks. We had a free interior room and wanted to upgrade to a balcony. We paid the difference, which was something like 450 a person. Then we had to pay the tax on the drink package, (120 pp?) then it was the prepaid gratuties (224 pp), and finally we paid for trip insurance since we are flying out of Chicago in February.

well, dang. That burger and wings looked so good I was already planning on making it my first meal on board! I'm into gambling, so maybe I'll give it a try and test my luck. Thanks for all the good food and drink pictures!!

Has anyone had the chicken at Ocean Blue? I'm allergic to shellfish but my husband loves it so I figured we could go to Ocean Blue and I would get something non fishy. Weird, I know, but don't want my husband to be shortchanged because of my allergy.

I was on The Odyssey in March and the drinks were the smaller size and 1 punch each. If I wanted a larger drink it was considered 2 punches. I ended up getting 2 of the smaller drinks and pouring them into my insulated cup from the beverage package. Maybe it was a 12 oz size? I can't remember.

My husband wears shorts and collared shirt to MDR and trust me, he's more covered up than some of the women I've seen. Short dresses, sleeveless...my Catholic School fifth grade nun wouldn't know what to do with herself. None of that has stopped me from polishing off the bread basket, however. What other people wear or don't wear to dinner does not impact my dining experience at all. How can men wearing shorts bother anyone when you might see them for 30 seconds before they sit down? Just enjoy your apple blossom and ice cream--it's all good.

We ordered 24 cans on the Odyssey in March and received 9 large glass bottles, which was actually less total ounces than the 24 cans. They would not have been very convenient to carry.
