  1. we would not be so patient..that's way too long.. why didn't you try another bar?
  2. nice pics.. wish some had captions. Halloween costumes were very well done! We only cruised once on Oct 31st.. overnight in ARUBA...los of fun! thanks for posting!
  3. Thanks for ur recognition..Cruise Critic is our go to guide! I really enjoyed the read. We did the bus to Taormina..We had some harrowing hairpin turns..closed my eyes more than once. Beautiful area..esp looking down to the water where you likely did the boat ride..
  4. Fabulous review! Pictures are outstanding... Thank you for sharing your artistry and thoughts!
  5. we were in Luminae on BEYOND. The restrooms are off to the side within the restaurant..close to kitchen entrance. Beware the auto doors! I was trapped inside for several.minutes, hit by the doors trying to escape.. It was a very unpleasant experience. After I got out maitre d was just " ho hum..sorry". could not locate another restrm nearby maybe at tme gym ???
  6. Yup it takes us almost full day to get from LI NY to Fl..absurd! Used to do Frontier( grin and bear it) non stops for awhile but they were not reliable and stopped going to our Fl airports from ISP
  7. Thanks for the tips.. .def will look into these card options as ..we fly back and forth to Fl several times a year..
  8. Lately nothing seems reliable...so sad. We have our bad expetiences with SW air but it has improved somewhat. Our local airport ONLY has SW Air to the places in Florida we need to access. ..and we must change at Baltimore which we hate. Involves a very long walk from 2 gates very far apart often with little time to spare. Only plus is we are 10 min drive from the airport and get resident parking a short walk to the terminal. To get better flights means a car service to JFK or LaGuardia..Ugh! Or flying to airports in Fl that are hours away from our destinstion. good luck!
  9. I understand..but have no way to judge this persons perspective . We are not on f b so usually cannot access its content. And we only "watch" u tube for music and kids content. So not familiar with that person. . If it helps people decide then it has some value
  10. On some ships now it is back..as per recent posted reviews.. It would be awful of X to delete a long standing perk of a relatively higher fare cabin and then sell it off to others at a discount. But X never ceases to surprise us like that...
  11. saves time cecking in ahead for SW Air.. ( no assigned seats) You have your boarding pass in hand!
  12. MDR and BLU do not have the same kitchen, so maybe not so easy peasy . BLU has great soups, fresh salads, veggies and bread..lower fat & salt.. We will ask for all dressings, sauces and gravy on the side so we can see our food. We skip dessert.
  13. great cabin choice.. we liked SV better than the SS we had on BEYOND with Retreat/Butler . (used all our future cruise credits).. Preferred the 4 mdrs to Luminae..so don't feel bad with your SV! It will be sweet!
  14. no idea even who he is.. we do not follow other than trusted Cruise Critic posters!
  15. GOOD REMINDER NOT TO BOOK THESE SHIPS IN JAN AND FEB! sometimes X strings cruisers along until the Charters are finalized . had that bad experience more than once!
  16. we used to get boarding passes printed out at the Computer Center..no charge..No idea if that still works?
  17. so if excursion waS cancelled did you do anything in the port? T and T is supposed to have amazing birds and flowers, very natural.. Had hope to hear more
  18. sorry. very poor grammar and misleading on my part .. sorry if I got anyone's hopes up in AQ class that we are getting a lunch! AQ Class has priority embark Concierge. has .priority embark AND lunch!
  19. and the BLUE CHIPPERS who I believe also also get priority??? also AQ Class & Concierge whose fare includes boarding luncheon??
  20. Great choice for a birthday cruise!. You will board as we disembark. We enjoyed an SV ( deck 7 middle on EDGE)...Large stateroom with outside balc , nice size .Room for loungers. We had .great aft views, sunrise, sunset and night sky..all amazing! We enjoyed the 4 mdrs..fav were Tuscan and Cyprus. we booked AQ on Ascent this Jan, but for 2025, we booked an SV..due ti higher prices. All good!
