We will be on a back to back in August. After the first cruise of the back to back we will reach diamond status. On the second cruise will we get the drink vouchers for being diamond or does it take a few weeks to be diamond?

Thank you!

If I pay off my cruise prior to final payment date and the price goes down before final payment would I get OBC or how does that work?

Thanks! I think Star will be way over my budget. I was hoping for a 7 night on Wonder. Guess I'll have to wait and see.

I was looking to plan a August of 25' cruise. I was also hoping to get on Wonder during that time. Looks like for some reason Wonder doesn't have any sailings posted after April of 25'. Anyone know why that would be?

We just got off of Symphony of the seas and they had a table full of confiscated steamers and irons.

Any thoughts on the Coaster? Fun and exciting or pretty boring?

Had one of those in May on Symphony. Can't wait to have another in a week.

If we aren't on our balcony this is a great spot for sailaway.

Thanks! Can't wait to see Jennie she was great when we were on in May.

Who are the concierge this week? We were on Symphony in May and will be back on soon. Jenny was our concierge in May and she said she would be back when we were on board in December.

We’ll be on Symphony on December 2 appreciate your review. Thanks for taking the time to do this.

It was my understanding unless you are in a star suite you could check in 1 hour earlier then your check in time. If your check in time is 11 then you could show up at the terminal at 10.

Thank you! We can definitely walk that.

Is the pancake house walkable? Or should we plan to get a taxi from the cruise port?

Has anyone done the swim with sea turtles excursion with Viator? I'd like to know how it was and would you recommend it? I'm assuming since it's only 4 hours we would still have time to do something after. Maybe go to the beach or go shopping.

Thanks for posting. We were on Symphony in May. We stayed in Barcelona a few days before the cruise and was introduced to Paella. I would have loved a cooking class. We loved Symphony so much so we are booked on her again in about a month. The big ships are not for everyone but we love them. We booked all our dining reservations when we got on the ship so maybe that helped but I also know booking 14 nights of dining all at once is not ideal. How have the seas been?

Thank you!

Where is the best place for shopping in Aruba? By the port or is there another place we should go? We are looking for souvenirs and little boutique stores.

hahaha He'd never know.

Thanks!

Our 23 year old son will be with us on our next cruise. Can he use his own credit card attached to his sea pass card or do they only allow 1 credit card? We're all on the same reservation.

Thanks everyone for your input. I really appreciate it. As others have said... don't fix what's not broken. Will stick with bonine.

Bonine really works both ways. I took it after I was starting to feel the effects of the motion and within 30 min I was fine but lately I’ve taken it the night before we fly or leave for the ship and that works well too.

I know!! I’m always open to new ideas but Bonine does work well for me. Someone told me it was better then Bonine because it doesn’t make you sleepy. I’m not 100% sure though if I’m tired from Bonine or from just staying up late and getting up early.
