  1. And I had rhe shrimp cocktail and mybe a salad. .. so mexican lol I saw it came with spinach... yuck. What a mexican choice. How about refried beans? We joked at our table they needed to come to texas and see some tex mex. We would teach them tex mex. This was not it.
  2. Lol I was with ya until you said it was good until dec 31, .. I sail Jan 13, 2024, 2 weeks later.
  3. I also noticed how ram rod straight she stood. Odd you would use that word. I wondered how she was feeling. Maybe you are right, it was the crown, maybe she was afraid if she bent too much it might fall off. Idk. I enjoyed watching it on tv. I'm glad they made him the new monarch. Too bad about the rain.
  4. When I see pork n beans I still will think hawaii. There you would also brown up some spam, maybe add a little water to make them more soupy and pour over rice. I didnt say I dont eat them or anything, I said they hold different memories for me. I think country and eating outside, not fancy like you eat. It wasnt meant as a criticism.
  5. Dont have the menu but I had the pulled pork enchilada. It's more like a burrito, nothing like a enchilada. I cut it in half and ate the pork out of it and left the thick casing. It wasnt spicy. No tacos for entrees. Or taco salad. I was just thinking fhe live review of the Panama canal he posted all the menus, you might go thru it and find the mexican menu. What I ate was bland. No peppers or onions.
  6. The policy might have changed, but the policy I know is carnival will let you upgrade and pay more money but cannot downgrade. It's been allowed in the past if it's a higher category cabin.
  7. Until they turn a profit, I agree that cut backs are happening. That being said my Bella oasis cruise I found faults with my no personality cabin steward, bumped from my dining tablet.. again. Radiance a smaller ship, I enjoyed all my meals except italian night. . It can vary by ship. I dont expect things to change, cruise prices are going up up up. When there is a profit maybe things will be added BACK?
  8. We were sitting there together when we boarded and a friend was making reservations for shows. .. there is a add button . where you can add others to your show reservation, just put in their cabin number and click on their name. I would have done it myself but he did it for me. Just click the "add" button when you make the reservation.
  9. I dont think I was linked, but a friend of mine added me by name when he was reserving shows on allure. I dont think its necessary if you have their name and stateroom.
  10. I tipped in cash. It's a option. I gave extra as he had to wait for me. No driver ever turned down cash I've driven with.
  11. Upset. I said very nice dishes but I dont think pork n beans suit such a lovely setting .. sorry . I should just say lovely setting. And not mention the food. Didnt mean to upset you I take it back, too late to delete my comment. .
  12. Lol sorry such nice dishes and all ... and then what looks like pork n beans all over the plates. Just not my idea of breakfast. Takes it down a notch from the fancy setting.
  13. Not sure what ship you are on, but my last cruise was radiance and I looked for brie and never found any anywhere. Maybe they just ran out for that cruise. Diamond lounge had some other cheese but no brie. I was looking for it too.
  14. I was thinking a lot of tv too. I was adding some special CNBC covering of Berkshire Hathaway all day today. Their once a year all day thing is being g covered live all day. Isnt he 90 now? Kind of a character. Drinks 5 cokes a day and says he is willing to give up 1 year of his life to eat what he wants. Lol I will probably switch over a few times to see if that's interesting.
  15. I tried to book it the day it was announced and my ta said dp340 wasnt valid. .. so if there was a limited time we are talking minutes or hours .. I saw the announcement the very first day. I trust my ta who is well known on cc when he said dp340 is not offered. If he said dp340 wasnt offered, I believe him. This time imo they wanted the extra money.
  16. When oasis was oversold they were offered a free 6 day leaving 1 day later and the $300obc. This offer isnt quite as good as I've seen before. I dont I'd take a 5 day and $300 obc myself.
  17. With so many involved I'd probably pass. There are probably plenty of retired folks like me who will jump on this offer. So no other dates offered? If I had a cheap casino offer I'd also say no, depends on what I paid. The more I paid the more apt I'd be to take the offer.
  18. Any other offers. Often there are multiple choices. So a full refund plus credit of what you paid toward another cruise. .. unless I booked a super low fare 2 cruises for 1 price would appeal to me this far out. I'm retired though so one date is as good as another. Most of my hotel reservations are changeable with no penalty. Rcl needs to change their model. They seem to expect a certain number to cancel which is no longer happening.
  19. That's part of why I changed my mind about going. Plus the solo discount isnt good july and august. So the price is even higher. They picked a date when discounts dont apply as much. If I was pinnacle then I think I might want to go.
  20. You might very well get some free bling. I wanted to go but not at summer prices.
  21. Port Canaveral passed miami last year as the busiest cruise port in the world... ..and imo prices show it. https://www.mynews13.com/fl/orlando/news/2023/05/02/port-canaveral-now-the-world-s-busiest-cruise-port
  22. Every time I've boarded in Galveston they called diamond plus to board right after they cleared the suites etc. When is the last time you boarded in texas. .. I've seen priority boarding.
  23. Probably better ways but I told my elderly parents to call my TA to get a message to the ship, since covid. Before covid and my TA i said call rcl and tell them my name, ship name, cabin number and it was a emergency and they could get a message to me. My parents were 96 and 103 when they passed and it could have been life or death and I needed to get off the ship and fly home. If its life or death matter I assume rcl will pass on a message to a passenger to call home. You have a phone in your cabin. Last I heard you can call for about $2 a minute, dont know now.
  24. I think the single option entree when I did radiance was one at a time, not just one total. I had 2 guys argue they wanted their steak and lobster on the same plate and my waiter said no.
