  1. They really want to go to Atlantis... I checked ship tour for $49.00 but it stated LOTS OF WALKING. Don't think they could do that.

     

    If we go ourselves which mode of transportation (Taxi or water taxi) would involve less walking.

     

    Also, if we go ourselves can we purchase tour tickets to the aquarium & if we can, will we be allowed to walk around Atlantis?

     

    Thanks for any advise....

  2. You're not a pest! You really need to find some pictures of the Vista suites on the K.

    The bed is next to the balcony door and there is somewhat of a separation between the bedroom and the living area.

    I sometimes stay up reading after my husband goes to bed and this was much more comfortable for me rather than the couch right next to where he was sleeping.

    We really enjoyed our Vista stateroom!

     

     

    Thanks, did as you suggested - cabin does not look much bigger then a typical balcony room on the Celebrity ships. Do you know what perks come with the suite?

  3. I do not like the Signature Suites on the K, so we booked a Vista Suite and in my opinion (and DH's) - yes, it certainly was worth the extra $.

     

    Can you expand......what were the differences? Sorry to be a pest but this would be my first suite purchase. Have been on many other ships, usually in regular balcony cabins. Mostly on Celebrity. Husband wants to try Holland and I thought I would upgrade to a suite to surprise him for his 75th birthday.

  4. Looking at the Divinia 10/28 sailing...would like opinion from anyone who has sailed on Divinia in a S3 suite. Are the no balcony suite rooms bigger....which S3 suites with balconies would you recommend. Actually, any information on the S3 suites would be appreciated. THANKS

  5. My husband and I and another couple are booked on the Magic sailing 12/3. Because my husband and I are platinum & our friends are not we booked the 2 wives in one room & the two men in another. The plan was to switch rooms once we boarded the ship. Unfortunately, (medical reasons) our friends my have to cancel. Now we are wondering how we handle cancelling??? My husband and I want to still go on the cruise. Right now he is in one cabin and I in another. Any advise would be appreciated.

  6. First time sailing from Canaveral. It was a cake walk compared to Jacksonville and a little better than Miami. Look forward to our next cruise from that port.

    The first day was a bit rainy but not bad at all. We where doing this on a tight budget an cabin E49 nice aside from some behind the scenes noise. Did not really bother us, I think it might have been the elevators.

    Day 2 was overcast but not raining. Nassau was, well Nassau. Left the boat to buy some local Rum and then boarded and Sat outside at the rear of the Lido enjoying the sounds of the brass band playing down below, just past the customs check point, playing Christmas music. Loved the empty boat. Nice and relaxing.

    Day 3 started out nice but overcast, the captain sailed N NE instead of heading back past Freeport. We got within sight of Grand Bahama before turning West. Had a pretty fair wind from the East but this track kept it nice for a sea day. The atrium looked great all decked out for Christmas. Had a Christmas show in the Fantasia at 4 and had a Christmas sing along in the atrium WITH SNOW at 9. Good times. Started getting a little rough once we cleared Grand Bahama. He continued West until we where about 15 miles from the FL coast. Once he turned North it got interesting.

    Many complaints this morning of not being able to eat or losing what they had. I rather enjoyed the weather. Made it interesting.

     

     

    Don't get many reviews on 3 day cruises... We are taking our grandson on the Sensation 3 day cruise in January. Keeping fingers crossed the weather will at least be decent. He is 25 and this is his 1st cruise. Since we are seniors can you offer any advise as to what you think he would enjoy?

  7. We are taking our 25 yr. old grandson on the 3 night cruise in January. His first. & it's a surprise. He thinks he is coming to visit us in Florida. I am sure he does not plan on bringing any long pants, just the jeans he will have on when he arrives from Chicago. Will this be an issue on the cruise? Does the Sensation have the new menus the American table ? What was the entertainment?
