We just went from Indy at Terminal D (which is actually a Carnival terminal) to Terminal A. Not as smooth as we were assured it would be. We got a porter to help us with our luggage and he brought us over to the complimentary Port shuttle. Except this shuttle does not go to Terminal A. He took us over to Parking Garage K (which is over by Terminal J) and helped us get our luggage off the shuttle. The shuttle that then came was actually an employee shuttle but since there were no employees waiting to be picked up, he agreed to take us to Terminal A. It took over 40 minutes to get to Terminal A with all the traffic!! But the next time we might just take a taxi from terminal to terminal.

Just watched Freeze Frame (ice show) again on Independence. My husband said it is his favorite ice show because he loved the music.

I just booked a 4-day cruise on Wonder for Dec 15, 2025, out of Miami.

Enjoyed Up in the Air but I preferred Flight on Symphony. Loved Hairspray because of the music. Aqua80 on Oasis is my favorite Aqua show.

Someone posted this.

Enjoying your review!

We were there. I think it was the Hotel Director who talked about new ships. Definitely heard someone state that they will be building a smaller ship, Voyager-class size.

Went to Guest Services and got a full refund

As @ATG posted, today is sea day and we will be on time tomorrow for Labadee. We had gone to Hideaway Bay yesterday with friends, but it was so windy and cold at 69 degrees we only stayed for a half hour.

Currently on Oasis and we are still docked at CocoCay. The Captain is waiting for the wind to change direction and then we can leave, probably within the next hour or two.

We put in a bid slightly over minimum for a suite on Oasis, got our reject email the night before we sailed.

Quantum-class ships have a Playmaker’s that overlooks the indoor sports complex area.

We did a 3-day last month on MSC Divina out of Miami. We were supposed to go to Nassau and then MSC’s private island Ocean Cay. It was so windy we couldn’t dock at either port. So we just had two sea days before coming back to Miami. We didn’t get fined or anything!

Glad you were ok. Saw videos on FB of the slot machines knocked over, that must have been so scary.

Oh wow, how incredibly exciting for you!!!!!!

We changed cabins last week and were asked to pack everything (went from Deck 10 down to Deck 6)

We had the pleasure in 2022 of sailing into and then docking in Sydney at the OPT. I have many wonderful memories from that cruise. Hope you have a fabulous time.

The J3 Junior Suites on Odyssey are great for families because they have one and a half bathrooms! That is such a great feature. We got a J3 on Odyssey through a last-minute upgrade and loved it. Since there is just 2 of us, we usually do the J4 Junior suite, which has the split bathroom but only one toilet.

We have learned that not allowing a bread basket is a great start to watching your weight. Or my husband will request one breadstick or just one pretzel roll.

Something is off. Here is the list of QR codes and the points needed for each level. I got a certificate for 2,000 points. It is only good for an interior and I played about $1,000 of my own money. So he should definitely booked through either the NextCruise deal or NextCruise on the app, because a balcony or junior suite is one heck of a deal for $20!

You do not bank it on the card. You play $260 and then cash out. You will have a voucher for $240. You take the voucher to the cashier and get your $240 in cash. You can then repeat that within an hour or whenever you want. But you must cash out from the machine, some players are not aware that on Royal the machine does not automatically cash you out.

We are on Icon first of March. Bought the 3-night dining package several months ago and it is no longer showing available to purchase. UDP is still available.

For instant certificates with a NextCruise booking, the rule has been that you must call Club Royale and book within 30 days to get your Free Play bonus and your NextCruise onboard credit. If you are not booking a casino certificate then you have 60 days to book and get the NextCruise OBC.
