  1. It is totally dark. It will be a miracle if they do.

    Yes a miracle if the person is found . I'm close to the front where the search light is searching . Port side . Helicopter is now searching away from ship .

    I think we will be leaving once the coast guard boat gets to our location .

    Sad ! Prayers to the family !

  2. We also are on the Getaway . We were sitting window seat in the Savor and watched the speed boat go get her . She was one lucky lady ! I was impressed by the Capt letting us know he had a overboard and was turning the ship around . It was a quick recovery . Friends said they saw her get off the rescue boat and saw them help her walk . Not sure of her injuries but know she was taken by ambulance to St Thomas hospital . Hope she gets the help she needs . During q & Answers Someone asked all they said was it was the Capt first rescue . Less than 1 percent . She was very lucky !

  3. She was my first cruise, yes. I remember those white gloves. 4 of us in our early 20's had the time of our life. Got me hooked! You NEVER forget your first one! First island was Haiti! Not a dry eye when we returned to the ship! Culture shock. I remember saying I AM PROUD TO BE A AMERICAN! Children 6 years old were diving for coins yelling TAKE ME TO AMERICA! As years went by I upgraded to bigger ships! CREW was fantastic! Now I choose the larger ships!

  4. We have had offers the last 5 years from Vegas Harrahs properties. We live in IL and never made it to Vegas in Feb to pick them up.

    This year Harrahs in Joliet had their first cruise offer for NCL went to pick it up .

    We stopped at Hollywood on our way home. Left our cards at home so we stopped to get new cards. The person asked for our email we gave them . A few weeks later received e mail to come in on Friday for a cruise cert. I told my husband I was driving the 2 hours to pick up my cert. He says get your sister to go ! I checked his e mail and he also had a offer. So we both drove the 2 hours to pick them up.

    Going June 6 on Getaway! Hope we get s free cruise from the casino staff while we are on the ship. Cert was for inside but we paid 300 each TP up grade to mid Bal plus port fees and taxes.

    Need to book the 2 offers by June 30 for the Carnival cruise. I like the bigger ships so what ship would be good? Or are smaller ships better for getting free cruise?

    My offer was anytime except Holiday for Bal room. My husband was inside no holiday no June July or Aug!

  5. Just received an email from Hollywood Casino for a free cruise certificate on Carnival. Does anyone know the expirations or how long they are usually good for? They won't tell me till I pick it up on May 1st!!

     

    We got 2 March 17. Have to book by June 30 & sail by March

    My husband offer was inside. Could not be used holidays or June July Aug

    Mine was bal room. Any time but Xmas & New Years mine was for Alaska but his wasn't. 7 days. We haven't book yet . Waiting until we return from a free NCL cruise we got in Jan we are taking Breakaway June 6. The offer was inside upgraded 300 @for mid Bal. Had to pay port fees taxes and tax on the free cruise

  6. Following! Love the pics and details. I cruised several older NCL ships in the late 70's 80's. Started to cruise RCCL and love the big ships! Booked today on the Getaway after reading this review! Yes why not try something new and different. Lifeisgood! Looking forward to more of your adventure! Question does the Getaway have anything like Park Cafe ? We booked June 6 sailing! Celebrating retirement and my 60th BD

  7. I have just finished reading the entire thread! Thanks for all the hard work! I love your post's. Love the pics! Wishing I was there. I leave on this ship Dec 3 . My cruising friend SEACAT65 HEIDI has been sailing with you doing the B2B. I saw here in one of the pics you posted. If you see her tell her JUNE BUG says hello!! Safe Travels to everyone!

    I think I have gained weight just looking at the pictures of all that food!
