  1. Well an entire cruise day int an occasion in my mind. 5 drinks at the party is a lot for me but I guess it depends on the party😃
  2. @cantgetin you are always free to roll your luggage the entire way to your cabin if its small enough. Most of the porters in Miami are part time and and are not making anywhere near what you're quoting. But even if they were, its still bag breaking work.
  3. Do I need to book as soon as I board for all these classes?I love stuff like this. And can a bar tab be used for the drinks ones or only sailor loot?
  4. Sounds like lots of optional classes that include alcohol 25 is a deal compared to Royals sushi class.
  5. All the ships departing go from the Pan American pier as far as I know. Old san Juann is for transit.
  6. So enjoying trying to figure out what the heck y'all are talking about.😀
  7. Thats certainly not binge drinking in anyway in my book. I think even my lightweight elderly mom drinks a mimosa at breakfast and a glass of wine with each meal when on vacation. There was a lot of champagne the first day? Im deciding whether to do the pub crawl.
  8. You want to drag your luggage all that way tosave 5 bucks. You just give it to a porter and start relaxing. They do work for tips. Im not sur e that makes them aggressive. Can you lift 200 bags in a row, its hard work.
  9. Id be very disappointed. There are no local tours. The tram ride is about 10 minutes to beach. There are no close food options other than very expensive food truck or the hotel. Lots of great local food but needs a golf cart ride. and Bimini is expensive. We go every year for a paddling to the US charity event.
  10. I was wondering what part of Florida he was comparing to LA. I had settled on Jacksonville or Ocala.also.😆 And Korean BBQ is so popular hear in Orlando, I bet 10 opened recently.
  11. This is word for word what you wrote on fb. And everyone else Sid they tipped in spa.
  12. Exactly right. They're sold everywhere and worn as a sling. Or on your butt as a bum bag.
  13. This looks amazing to me. I hate the hot sweaty solarium. Give me a good breeze.
  14. I think you will have a great time on Panorama. Ive been on Horizon and its a fantastic layout. The lunch choices on Carnival are awesome, Guys Burgers and Blue Iguana. enjoy saving the cash.
  15. Interesting. I specifically did not purchase it yesterday for Indy bc I was told Chops would not be open on embarkation day. I assumed it was related to The Key in the MDR .I haven't been on Indy in many years.
  16. Good review, especially for those who wonder what to spend to get a casino offer. It seems that question comes up a lot. I cruise solo sometimes and haven't had the problems you did. I'm sorry that happened to you.Do you think maybe the casino bar has more walk up traffic bc of free drinks and they stood by you too much in your personal space? I am glad you were vocal. As a former bartender, it is tricky to sit at a bar alone sometimes . It shouldn't be.😞
  17. The OP said the food was good. You actually think you're so informed about food that they'd have you address your complaints directly to the Executive Chef based on your survey?😉
  18. It is funny that people complain that its the same old thing. I have only been a few times but it is still fun with the right cruise director. Most of the people on a ship are new to cruising. Its not old hat to them. Now the one thing I do not get is why the trivia questions are so repetitive . Have a computer generate new ones. OMG I love 90s.It is my entire playlist.
  19. They were very kind but they were having a lot of problems with the covid tests and the Bermuda forms. I was with my granddaughter and she must have been asked 10 times how old she was. They had under 12 and under in separate line bc of something covid. She is 13 and we kept saying," she's 13, double vaxxed and boosted". 5 minutes later, they'd ask again.😆 But the line was slow, over 2 hours and thats a tiny ship.
  20. Thats the trick. I keep saying I am going to do that. Had it booked but then covid.
  21. Promenade is definitely not for special orders. But they always have cold cuts and cheese at the windjammer so you can easily make your own. Confused ,you said you wanted ham and cheese, then listed a ham and brie cheese sandwich? so you're looking for a specific cheese?
  22. Is the problem the word pretty? Can mens clothes not be pretty in your world? Shall I rephrase to his handsome designer dress shorts?
  23. I wish, Its always sold out when I look. I find it amusing that she is intent on telling me its worthless. She has clearly never had it and I am definitely not a new cruiser that has been flamboozled by Royal.🙃 Ill hog my internet all to myself while drinking mimosas and eating filets and lobsters. And she can cruise the way she likes also.
  24. I love dressing up and can generally get my husband to somewhat match. However, there is a world of difference between my husbands bike shorts and t shirt and his pretty linen shorts with a nice long sleeve shirt. We live in Florida and dress shorts do not turn heads in too many nice restaurants. A few years ago, our large group arrived at Berns Steakhouse and husband had on dress shorts . They loaned him a pair of long pants in his size. Hilarious plated and cuffed pair from 1980.
  25. Yes definitely a mix. I bring the cold brew coffee and Red Bulls and flavored waters.
