Why did you have to use Quest if you only had used 4 of your 6 tests?  Even though we have Quest labs nearby, they don't do rapid.  We'd have to drive 25 miles at least to find one that does.

 

Because we have my son and his friend cruising with us and coming in this afternoon.

Hello all! I am looking for people who have recently used this COVID Test and were able to cruise! The Carnival website directed me to this test, but I'd like to hear from real people who have used it. Thanks! 

So, this I can answer. 

We did 4 of our 6 yesterday. It was not clear if one email was possible or not, so everyone used their own email.

One warning, one of our tests came back as "not valid" so we had to quickly schedule a rapid at Quest, and that was yesterday, and still no results. Hoping for results today, sail tomorrow.

The test process itself was simple, and each person started their own call. There was no waiting for the testing session to start.

I am praying that the other 2 that test today have no issues. At some point, we may have to have the one retest again if no results from quest come back.

The three that tested, tested easily and results were in email within minutes. I printed the results and uploaded them to Verifly and approved within a few hours.

May want to make sure you have an extra proctored test kit!

Sail tomorrow and waiting for two more from my party to arrive this afternoon.

2 calls. We have one eMed account and one Navica account with two profiles on each.

I purchased 4 $500 ones to pay for 4 drink packages prior to the price increases. I am going to use the remaining to add to the onboard account.

It really hurt my pride to join AARP, but it was worth saving the $$

So I have a question that I searched for and did not find an answer. A friend who may be going on a cruise asked.

Can he preorder a bottle of vodka to be delivered to the room, and also get the cheer's package?

Before you judge, it's his liver, not mine!

This was sailing in September. The first bridge you go under is the Key Bridge, there was plenty of daylight.

The second one is the Bay Bridge, it was sunset time, and got some good shots.

Holy shoot! Is that what 'Friends of Bill' is?! I was wondering who that mamma jamma was! Everytime I pass by the library after supper, they usually have some sort of private event thing. I figured it was just bougie old people playing bridge or something. 

Sort of funny at the time story. We went to the library to find the ambassador, and walked into a "Friends of Bill" meeting with a beer in my hand. Needless to say, the leader of the group started yelling at me.

I understood her point, but it also was not marked that the library was in use.

Cabana sound systems had existing audio programming or you could connect personal devises via bluetooth

 

 

 

So when I am at the Beach Club, I should check to see if any of the cabanas are broadcasting Bluetooth and drive them nuts? LOL

Loving your review! So anxious to get on her in March!

Thank you

Canon D80 with an image stabilized 70-300 zoom. 10+ miles south of launch pad

Thank you!

We will be on the Harmony leaving on March 1st, and were wondering about the early am March 2 launch.

@John&LaLa May I ask what kind of camera that was?

Debating on a new compact or bridge camera, or a new iPhone 

Sailing March 1st, looking forward to your review

I did not see any aluminum cans of water, only plastic.

Hopefully it stays that way for March 1st! LOL

Thank you

I answered you in post #87 on Sunday.  Right after your original post.

Oops.. Thank you!

I totally missed it..

Did they have bottles of water? Reports are RCCL is moving to aluminum cans for water.

I never saw an answer to the question about what kind of can was it?

The pop top or resealable lid?

I do not drink tap water straight, it tastes bad to me.. Hence one of the reasons I am paying for the beverage package.

Awesome review! Getting me ready for the 3/1/20 sailing!

Did you get to the piano bar at all?

He could refuse to take the case based on morals alone. While this is horrible, blaming someone else and trying to get a payday is just wrong.

You mean a lawyer that has morals?? LOL

They are harder to find than Luke Skywalker!

Loving your review!

Sail on her on March 1st and this is getting me syked!

 So I have a question.

I will be sailing on the Harmony of the Seas in March.

I am going to bite the bullet and get the pass.

I hate getting my bathing suit soaked with sweat, to wear it later.

IF I wrap a towel and make sure everything is covered, will anyone say anything?

Anyone had experience with this?

The 10 year old should be banned from Royal and forced to take anger management courses. 

Why do I get the feeling that he parents think this is normal. It's all well and good until someone loses an eye.

Wow, you probably never had kids!

The OP did exactly what they should have done, reported it to the room steward and let it go from there.
