It is going to get worse with once a day cabin service. Next used towels will be out with all the other stuff.

The Windjammer had trays for years before they got rid of them.

I understand your concerns with the non refundable deposits. RCI wants people to book early and also want people to assume the risk of doing so. Initially deposits were refundable until final payment date. Then RCI started non refundable deposits with suites and then it spread to all cabin catagories. Then to intice people to book non refundable the difference compared to refundable is sometimes eye popping. These days I tend to book much closer to, or within, final payment when my plans are less likely to change.

I don't get the thing with beach picnics either. Maybe analogous to booking a cruise on a billion dollar cruise ship and then sharing food with flies at Labadee.

That ending fight with guests nearby was over the top. We will see what Sandy does with that. I also think it odd that Sandy approved of that beach for a picnic. It is fortunate for the crew that she was involved with picking it. Now she can't blame them if the guests complain about it.

I'm done until the next snowfall.

I didn't get an email for my upcoming cruise. I didn't know it was applied until I saw it in the cruise planner.

Time for Below Deck.

So would I. 😕

At least they shrunk and stretched Oasis to make their point.

That seems to be a definite trigger around here.

Neither do I. However, I want the used towels, dirty dishes, and used glasses out of the cabin. And don't increase the gratuities just when you are about to decrease the level of service.

However, don't assume that everyone that fills that spot will fall in love with cruising. I know people who have no interest in trying it and others who tried and won't go back.

👍👍

I doubt that phones that old will receive the Android 13 operating system with IU 5. That is what caused the issue with the Samsung keyboard.

On an Adventure sailing several of us on the ship were posting on the same thread. It was pretty cool!

You won't have any issue not having a suit with you.

Depending on your carrier and plan, US territories in the Caribbean are treated as if you are within the States. It would be pretty easy to verify with your carrier before you travel.

I wonder if there is a way to let Samsung know that their keyboard has issues since the update? However, I'm not sure I care as this new keyboard seems much better at deciphering my keystroke mistakes into the word that I am actually trying to type.

That would be me.

I just sent out a message on the football app that we use with no trouble. I have no idea what made you think to try a different keyboard but THANK YOU!

I am quoting you using the Microsoft keyboard and the Samsung browser and it's working!

Thank you so much. I will try this when I get home.

Yes, but it is nice while it lasts.
