Was on Glory last week and saw them on any balcony large enough to have them. On my regular (small) balcony I had a chair with an adjustable back.
Sorry, LOL, I sailed Glory last year, just got off Valor. LOL MY mind still in cruise mode!

I’ve sent out my cotton nightgown, socks, undies, jeans, workout shorts, cotton capris, and cotton pants. I don’t send out nice t-shirts due to fear of them shrinking in the hot water and hot dryer. I think bras and bathing suits are too delicate for the industrial treatment and are easily washed out by hand. The cotton pants and capris came back nicely folded but quite wrinkled. I used the iron in the public laundry room to make them presentable.
I have also used the public laundry rooms, but, in my experience, they are often busy unless you are willing to do your laundry very early in the morning or very late at night or during a port day.
People on these boards have said they have written special instructions such as “cold water” or “delicate cycle” or “low dryer heat”, but I am not at all sure those instructions are followed. I only send out what I feel won’t be damaged by super hot water and super hot drying.
I usually do my own in self laundry on a port day, normally the only one in there.

I've never been on a cruise ship with self serve laundry but I guess I will be when I go on the Pride. How much does a load of laundry cost, and do you scan your sea pass card, or should I bring quarters?
TIA
Use your card, think around $3.50.

It will show up when you get to payment when ordering.

So are the espresso / latte drinks included on the punch card? Do you buy the punch card, or, do they offer it to you on your first purchase? Thank you!
My last cruise I didn't get cheers, I had to ask for the card.

Great idea. Question: where do I find an inexpensive watch? Here in NE NJ you can’t find too many inexpensive things! 🤯😳😣
Are you cruising out of port other than NY NJ area? If so, if you have time, run to Walmart or a chain drug store to find a cheap watch.

We just booked a 2025 cruise out of Sydney. I'm reading that we need a visa, but my sister says no! Anyone tell me their recent experience? Traveling from U.S.

Went on Spirit with my sister in Oct. We had car issues embarkation day, about 3 hours late for our boarding time. They had us go to back of line, but eventually 1 of the workers let us skip part of the line. Everything went quickly after that. I don't remember it happening in Spirit MDR, but on Glory, drink service was absent nights I was there. Really no complaints overall on Spirit. We had a couple of rough sea days, but nothing like you saw in Cozumel.

I got a phone case with a strap, pockets for card and a small zippered pocket. Works great for me, easy access to sail card.

Totally disagree. I've done three (prior Covid) spring break cruises with my boys (11 & 13) and we never noticed rowdier or bad behavior. Yes, there were definitely more kids, and yes, they pushed every elevator button before they got off on their floor, but I say that's par for the course and I just rolled my eyes as we stopped on every floor.
I've never really noticed a difference either.

OBC can be used, online or onboard.

Just be aware of how many bottles are in cabin when arrive. Last cruise there was only 1 bottle in cabin, I saw that we were charged for a bottle. Had to go to guest services to have charge removed.

Should be able to accommodate 16 with 2 tables.

It's a fun activity! Ducks can be hidden anywhere save for stores and restrooms. If you find one, you have the choice to either keep or re-hide it. If you keep it, sometimes you have to take a selfie with the duck so that the Facebook group can see how far their ducks have traveled.
Also, don't hide on open decks.

I priced them both Erato will be $225 and Fulton will be $167. Is the shuttle free or is there a charge? I am worried about getting a spot as it will Mardi Gras weekend. I am also leaving very early because many streets will be closed due to parades. We live an hour away north of the lake. Any advice?
Shuttle is free (except for tipping)

Buy yourself a $500 gift card for $450 on aarp. Load it up as bar cruise cash. That's your drink package. Sure sounds like that would be plenty.
It would be better to get regular cruise cash as bar cash can only be used at bars, regular anywhere.

Because you used her card to accumulate points?
No, she used her card.

I usually stay in Biloxi pre-cruise and arrive at Fulton around 9am. Considering staying in NOLA next cruise due too Monday embarkation. (traffic will be heavy) Does Fulton allow check-in day before cruise? Hyatt right next door, their parking cost is $35.

Starboard side, there's a white sign hanging from hallway ceiling and sign on door, easy to miss if not paying attention. $3.50 for both washer and dryer. $2 for detergent from machine, I bring tide pods and dryer sheets from home.
