I thought if you cancelled 3 months out before final payment that you could get your deposit back. I booked once with Cunard and cancelled and that is how it worked then.

I would not book an inside room until there is a vaccine for Covid just in case something goes wrong and you are stuck in there. Casino noise might be the least of your problems.

Much worse if it was above a theater which I would not do at any price.

Celebrity Edge-- Concierge Suite
This cabin category has a separate bedroom, but it is listed as for 4 persons. Does anyone know if the sofa in the living area is a pull-out ?
Thanks

You can google "low single supplement cruises" and that could lead you in the right direction. Hopefully what I just said is allowed.

Dress is supposedly relaxed, but I can imagine the costs of those 'relaxed' clothes. I think the bigger question for jmsync might be the ages. Granted, I haven't sailed with them.
Despite the current reduced single supplement, I can't confirm that flights from Canada are included and the quoted per day rate in Cdn is still ~3 times my normal per day budget. As I am not a big drinker and generally do my own 'shore tours', it appears to be wasted benefits for me. The same reason I book cheap cabin fares rather than fares with bonuses or 'free' stuff. I am not a profitable customer as I spend very little on board. But, it might be a once in a lifetime event.
I have never sailed on Silversea but I did go on Regent Seven Seas (ONCE). It's another one of those luxury cruise lines. Clientele is quite elderly and not really a fun crowd. older people can be fun. These folks were not. Alot of regulars on these lines and they tend to be self promoting- which is the most charitable way I can think of putting it.

Princess will be offering $1.00 deposits on their cruises on Cyber Monday, Nov. 26th. One day only.
Does Princess ships have any solo cabins are you booking at the full solo supplement in the hopes that your choice will be one that ends up with a reduced solo supplement?

Norwegian Getaway 7 nights out of Miami for $379 for an inside but this is very last minute. Balcony is 749. and Suite is 849.

Sort of thought that might why this thread was missing last night. I guess they don't want any feedback. Anyway, happy that the thread is back.

Was hoping for specific dishes as opposed to places that people have enjoyed. From reviews I so far have the roast beef sandwiches at Café Two70 and the lobster Mac and Cheese at Michael's pub, but looking for other suggestions. All dining venues have their hits and misses. Was wondering if cruisers had something that they particularly enjoyed and would recommend.

Just booked Anthem of the Seas for 12 nights out of Bayonne in January. What are you fav food items on this ship be it a main, app or dessert in the MDRs, specialty restaurants or where ever?
-
If you love cruising, it almost "pays" to live within driving range of a port city....especially if you are retired...
I have easy access to Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Bayonne cruise ports, but also Boston and Baltimore possible...
Those in Florida really have it made...:)
I live in Ottawa Canada and still consider NY and NJ ports to be within driving distance.its about a 8 hour drive but it can be done the day before so booking 3 days out can work if you are determined.

For what it's worth, I don't think this is unique to Cozumel. We just got off our cruise and were in Roatan where our plan was to go to Little French Key. The contact outside the port for LFK lined up a taxi for us to go to LFK as the van was full, but this taxi driver did not stop trying to get us to go to West Bay instead. He wanted to charge us 4X the normal entrance fee to enter West Bay as well. We did not agree, of course, but some of these taxi drivers definitely have their own agenda.
-
Must you spend this money they credit to you while you are on the cruise or can you cash it out?
-
ncl epic nov 25. seven days, inside solo for 582.00 including fees
where is it sailing?
-
Bit by bit people accept these invasions of privacy until they find them normal. They even decide that to be concerned about it is paranoia. Very sad.
-
Your phone has a GPS. So do many new cars. You visit web sites and many ask for your location. You are on a ship. They know where you are. Paranoia run rampant. Black helicopters from the UN, anyone?
Not really the same thing. No one is asking for your location here. They are telling you. One ought to be asked. Passengers should have rights, but don't. And won't if people just sit back and let corporations do what suits them and even help them by calling fellow travelers names if they raise questions.

Oh. One other thing: Is it feasible to taxi to Punta Sur or do you have to take an excursion to get there ?
-
It is safe to use taxi in Cozumel. There is a taxi stand just outside the terminal. There is also a big sign that lists the taxi fare ( in U.S. dollars) to the beach clubs and other attractions you may want to visit.
Excellent. Thanks!
-
Have you considered/researched going to Punta Sur?
How do you get to Punta Sur? Can you taxi there?
-
Thanks everyone. Appreciate it.
-
Does anyone have any experience with taking taxis from the cruise port in Cozumel? Is it safe? Is there anything to look out for or advice? Do you pay in pesos or US dollars? Where do you find taxis. We will be with Royal Caribbean so that the International port I think.
Thanks

Still "free" lobster on one night, usually on cruises of 5 nights or longer based out of the US.
Thanks Bob. We are on a 7 night Caribbean cruise out of Fort Lauderdale so it should be good.

I am guessing that Lobster night in the MDR is a thing of the past. Noticed you could order it for a price, but I am asking about the actual Lobster night.

I risk being booted off for saying anything, but I am certain many are thinking it. I feel that berating this poster verse and chapter is a bit excessive and heavy handed on the part of the forum admin. I recall, when people were still cruising, that cruisers were increasingly taking their roll calls to a Facebook page because it was just getting too exhausting to do so much as organize independent excursions without being scolded like school children by CC. I understand the need for rules and guidelines, but the tone does not need to be so harsh. Maybe you could just lighten up a little. After all cruising is not king anymore and we don't know if it ever will be again. Maybe best not to dump buckets of ice water on people when they try to talk about when to try booking another cruise again. Is there anything wrong with just friendly reminders that get the point across without humiliating and alienating people?
