Island no longer has them. I think they were removed when they butchered her aft. EM in Miraflores locks yesterday:

By my own measure, the twins are 33” wide, making the Queen 66” wide. Not quite a king, although I saw somewhere recently that that is what is considered a king in Europe. Don’t know if that is true. EM

Yes, people board and debark at every port, but they book it that way. It’s not random. EM

Carnival does not. Celebrity only for concierge and suites. I believe HAL does. That is not to say they will tell you the MDR is open, they will try to direct you to the buffet. EM

Chances are your passport was scanned when you checked in…or at the airport when you arrived? Are you looking at the Seaside cruises? They are all r/t Martinique with first port Guadeloupe. To debark in Guadeloupe you would have to book the whole second cruise. You can’t just stay on an extra day. EM

You have to be back onboard 30 minutes before scheduled departure time. EM

The rock slide was last year and disabled one end of the railroad dock. So one fewer large ship can dock at a time. EM

I have seen it recommended to take some color catcher sheets and tuck one in a pocket of the laundry items. EM

Welcome to Cruise Critic. Have you visited the Celebrity board here? At the top of their board is a sticky where people have reviewed cabins on S class ships, and a spread sheet created. Reviews should reflect the same cabin on all S class, as they are in the same location. EM

Carnival Venezia maiden voyage live
Essiesmom replied to IntrepidFromDC's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Ship in Marseille was Costa Smeralda. A Viking ship was also visiting. EM Venezia is still in Cadiz with Pride. EM -
I believe status match is a one time thing. If it expires, you can’t match again, you start all over. If it’s important, just grab a 3 day cruise in steerage. We will welcome you. EM

Are you mostly interested in current ships, or would older ships do? There is a website called shipsnostalgia dot com that might be able to link you to older/historic ship plans. From what I get, most of the members are retired merchant seamen, usually from the UK. But they might be able to point you in the right direction. EM

It’s in the thread title. EM

How are their flights? Are they flying in a day early? If not, are they timed to get them i without stress…EM

Puerto Limon, Costa Rica Train & Tortuguero Canal Tour
Essiesmom replied to SeaThruU's topic in Costa Rica
The train ride was at the end of our tour, and instead of having to climb down out of the train and up into the bus back to the port, they had a ramp that made a level transit from train to bus. EM -

We did that tour and enjoyed it. Not a lot of walking. EM -
Carnival Radiance- Ocean Suite for 4?
Essiesmom replied to CreamsicleCatMom's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Split the big bed into twins for the teens and you sleep on the sofa bed. Otherwise, forget the suite. EM -
Ports of Call Board

It’s still there on the main boards page. Just scroll down a bit further. EM -
If you still have the holder but not the wire, just use a cable tie. They’re cheap, come in all lengths and colors… just cut it off when you need to change the tag. EM

Best way to handle US to EU and vice versa?
Essiesmom replied to Jcon3228's topic in Ask a Cruise Question
The best exchange rate will be a bank ATM at your entry port. I have often ordered some from my bank at home just to have some handy but many don’t. The ship will give you the worst rates. EM -
But none of the OV cabins on Koningsdam are portholes. EM

Reminds me of the cathedral in Rio. EM
