  1. Short of it, assuming things do not change, during the Solstice's '22/'23 season, she is always at B93 except for two sailings in April
  2. Majority of sailing options offer the "All Included" rate which does include drinks yet it does sound like what you're experiencing is a bug
  3. As I said above, refreshed and they re-appeared, checked hours later and they still appear
  4. -Taxi, very short walk, jump in and go to the airport; fixed price at $20 -Ride share, at best takes the same amount of time as a taxi and may be a few bucks cheaper…At worst, they’re more expensive, you’re waiting for a driver who may never come as they could cancel after getting spooked at the security checkpoint or may not be able to get through it for a variety of reasons including a language barrier
  5. Out of FLL done three flights at 8:47am. Here are my tips for making early flights: 1) have a backup flight picked out with open seats 2) self carry if you’re able to 3) use a taxi as while I’m a huge ride share fan, you don’t want to deals a driver who cancels and/or can’t get into the port area 4) you can use curb side check in if you don’t have status, I was told the cutoff for checked luggage was 45mins before scheduled departure 5) If you ever travel a few times a year get global which is a little over $100 for 5 years which includes pre-check…Just to keep on your shoes walk through a metal detector vs a body scanner is worth it
  6. 100% agree and it should be stated a charge back is a blanket term. Generally a dispute is when you reach out to your lender to dispute the charge, sometimes the lender will ask you follow up questions. The lender reaches out to the company who charged the card asking for evidence/their side and gives them a deadline. If they don’t respond by the deadline the lender pulls back the funds and gives them back to you; aka a charge back. So we do have some datapoints that if you are waiting for a refund then if you do a charge back then X won’t blacklist you.
  7. just going to say, I refreshed the app and it worked. I closed the app and reopened it and it still works; will check again a few hours from now

  9. I did say "risk" and every chargeback situation can be different. A cousin of mine did a chargeback (pre-pandemic) for Princess and was blacklisted.
  10. You have an iPhone and can successfully switch sailings right now? This issue only started very recently
  11. Always a risk of getting blacklisted if doing a chargeback but for those who are done with celebrity it doesn’t matter
  12. Many have had issues with booking select dining then getting moved to late dining. First time I’ve heard this happening the other way.
  13. Received the exactly schedule, double check as some itineraries go to Mazatlan and others to Ensanada. Move the clock one hour the night of… Day 1/embarkation: Forward Day 2: Forward Day 4: Back Day 5: Back
  14. I'm going to get political here, who can I vote for that will permanently lock us in the US into DST the soonest?
  15. Thanks for posting, I also wanted to confirm that ship time will mirror local time which is usually the case but not always
  16. I realized I forgot to list NEW bookings only although in some cases you could cancel and rebook if the pricing makes sense. Thanks for sharing as you'll save an extra $40 or $140 total on $1,000. Often these gift card reselling sites do not have ample inventory but it appears there's plenty on Cardcash
  17. I believe the best use of the IVs are in places where its cold due to people not wanting to bundling up to sit on the balcony. That and the Starlink fast internet may attract first time GenX-ers from other lines but for us X regulars, I don't think there's a huge improvement over M/S-Class. On the recent Millie Panama Canal sailing which was only around 40% capacity, we visited the Sky Lounge several times when going through the Canal and it was surprisingly full, every chair by a window was occupied, others seemingly pulled up chairs and there were people standing behind them. They wouldn't be happy with the Edge.
  18. The irony is, in supermarkets or warehouse stores, the leaner the ground beef is, the more expensive it is
  19. If anyone is on the fence, look at this, thanks to some of the points accrued from PUPs, I'm one AQ 7 night sailing w/GoGreen away from Elite+ (5 x 7 + 5 = 40)
  20. Due to strict X gift card redemption rules, maximum saving is $100 per stateroom and X Gift Cards CANNOT be used in the cruise planner or as an OBC, can ONLY be used for bookings. You need a $12 AARP membership, you would buy two $500 gift cards ($1,000) for $900 hence the $100 savings. This may work for some but this clearly not for everyone X's gift card rules/T&Cs: https://celebritycorporatekit.com/content/uploads/2017/06/GiftCardTCs.cleandocx.pdf URL: https://www.aarp.org/rewards/redeem/#sort-by=default I searched and didn't see anything mentioned.
