Good Morning, Thank-you, didn't think they'd have that pizza on a non Alfredos ship. That'll cut down on room service.

I know there's no Alfredos, but can you tell me if the Capricciosa Pizza is available from room service. If it is, I know my wife will order it everyday. Mahalo

My wife took her water pic with her on our last cruise on the Royal and we needed to ask room steward for an extension cord. It was kind of a pain to get it out and stretch from the desk everytime she needed it. Can you use an adapter in the bathroom, seems to me something about the plug was only for electric razors.

Mahalo, That gives me a better feeling. Still will check everyday as Princess IT dept isn't the greatest.

Great info, we'll have to look into those. Just wasn't interested in the edge type balconies.

We've had a couple very nice cruises on Carnival. Just have to go when kid season is low and stay away from the 3-5 day booze pick-up cruises. Our worst experience was on A NCL ship we nicknamed "The Ghetto Boat". We'd like to try Celebrity but am not interested in their new edge balconies.

I had to buy more sunscreen on our 14day cruise last May-June.

I've always gotten my water for my BIPAP by filling in the dietary needs. On our next 28day cruise, my personalizer has 2 gallons listed.

This is exactly what we do. We have either E730 or E731 on the next 2 out of 3 long cruises. We've cruised in those cabins on several past cruises. On the other we have a deluxe balcony. When we have either on a Grand Class, there's no other cabin we'd want. On a Royal Class we have our T/A mark as meta upgrade, as we'd accept a mini suite upgrade.That's why I inquired if you got a choice to turn the "upgrade" down. I check our reservation every morning. Only 28 more days of checking before the next sailing.😀 Mahalo

You stated your reservation was "listed as no upgrade". There is the choice of "Meta(sp) Upgrade, an upgrade to a higher category as you got. Did you get the opportunity to accept or decline? I book the cabin that I want and on occasion will only have the meta upgrade option. I check my cabin assignment daily as I don't want a surprise. Glad it worked out for you.

Great Info! I loved Amsterdam!! First time I had been east of California. 6 weeks training in 1985 at the Folker factory on the F-28. What a fun 6 weeks, and I even passed school.😀

Mahalo to all for all the info. Costco has some good rates for the 2520 Miami Rd location. Saves us a ride back to the airport. Do you have to call the car rental shuttle, or does it just continually run? It will only be the Regal princess and the Viking Star in port that am, so hopefully not to crowded.

Yes, we went on a 19day Panama Canal/Pacific Adventure cruise. We stayed in a new mini suite on the Caribe deck.

Bayou Steak House isn't as good as the Crown, but we still love the Island.

My wife uses her Iphone as a hot spot for her Ipad all the time. Very easy.

Costco was a great tip, Mahalo!! Guess it'll be the airport.

We'll be arriving from a TA into Port Everglades and want to rent a car to drive to friends house in Cape Coral. I've read about returning cars to the port although I forget what company. What's the easiest and most convenient car rental route to go? Do any companies have shuttles that come to the port? Mahalo for any info.

I asked @Redking, and hope she's recovering, about the availability of private tours at Pago. My wife and I met at the old Rainmaker Hotel( where you left the lights on in the bathroom at night so the rats wouldn't come up the toilet and eat the soap) and have been to Pago to many times to count. We'd like to hire someone to drive us to some of the old spots we used to visit. We didn't eat Tuna for years due to the downwind cannery aroma. Mahalo

A good point is that the 5 limit is per EMAIL address. I use 2 different emails and buy 10 at a time.The gift cards have no reference to any email address so that's a work around if in a crunch time. We had a cruise paid for then cancelled by Covid. All the funds refunded and used again for upcoming cruise. I cut and paste the digital cards to a page and get 4 on a page, I wonder if that will cause a stir. If it does,I think I'll just cut them up to save paper.😀

We are out of Southampton in September. The best cost I've found between Blackberry, Mead and West Quay is West Quay. It is for only 2 of us. The cost was 140 GBP, you can only book 3 months in advance.

Good to hear, safe travels.

I left Hawaiian in 91, Kahele was probably still in high school. I retire in May from United after 32yrs!

My Mom came to HNL in 1946 to work as a scrub nurse at Queens. Met my Dad, a Paia Maui boy and stayed till she passed in 2019. One of my high school friends is the Chief Physician at Queens ( he studied, I played foootball).

Hope you had Dr Dean Sato! He amputated my Moms toe.
