Pricing is currently quite (obscenely) high fleetwide - all the way through April 2026.😱

Unfortunately, on our B2B's out of PC on Adventure, one leg is always a 6 nighter, and about 50% of those are more like tractor pull conventions.

Probably best to wait until Laura channels her inner John with actual details from what he received onboard the ship.

Not sure anyone actually reads your posts, other than to get their morning ckuckle😅

But surely you know how they do it for sure😇 BTW, all 7 of the upgrade bids we have won were the minimum bid permitted, and two of those were won within a week of the sail date, so your second 100% sure statements simply have no basis in fact.

Just motors and devices that use 60Hz as a pacing function (like plug in clocks). Typically charging devices convert incoming AC current to a low voltage, low amperage DC current.

Absolutely true, and that is why US devices that are all designed to run at 60Hz have issues on board.

Have they changed time zones since leaving LA yet? They are geographically at least two removed from Pacific time by now

The only devices that can withstand 220 to 110 conversion are those that have the capability built into them. (Usually clearly marked 110/220V 50/60Hz on the UL certification label) The problem with using an after market adaptor (unless you spend a lot of $$$ on it) is that the ship’s 220 is 50 Hz and our 110 is 60 Hz, and what you are buying is merely a step down transformer - us old folk used to call that a rheostat). The inability of the adaptor to change from 50/60 cycles per second will generate additional heat on the motor, and increased load on the heating element. In short, the motor runs slower, the elements run hotter, and the device can’t handle that for long before the thermocouple safety overheats and shorts out the device.

Like your new avatar😇

They died doing what they loved.

The only used house we ever lived in had a codicil in the deed that specifically prohibited it from being used as a “sporting” house. 😱 after that we have only bought new builds😇

I would add a fourth leg, but my wife would kill me - three weeks seems to be her limit on RCL ships.

On ours they upgraded us from a JS to a CLS for $100 each. Our last cruise before the shutdown was in an upgrade from a balcony to a CLS on Harmony the week before everything went south. Nice way to bookend the pandemic. Now DW won’t sail in anything less than a GS😇

We were on Allure the week after yours, and it was still quite empty (maybe 900 pax). The vibe on the ship was very downbeat - the ship felt dead.

We always book on board as soon as the new itineraries come out, and always book the same weeks each year, then salt in a few unique one offs that look interesting as we go.

We are currently on Adventure (2nd leg of a B2B) and the food in the WJ has been consistently outstanding. We only tried the MDR one night, and have had all our meals in the WJ ever since.

Drat. We end our B3B on the day you board

It will work out eventually, hang in there😇

And DW says it seems like we are trying to cut back on cruising with that schedule.😇

Unfortunately not. We have a B2B in April, a B3B in July, and another B3B in October this year, then B2B’s in February, April and an B3B in October next year all on Adventure.

We currently have 19 B2B or longer cruises booked on Adventure between April 2024 and April 2026, so maybe we will finally see you and Bucky on board😇

If you like the shows and the Flowrider, we find that Voyager class ships are a good fit between too large and too small.

Thanks for letting us all tag along on your adventure. Safe travels home and we’ll see you on the flip side.😇🚢

The last two times we were on wonder in July, there was virtually no soot on the sun deck, so they apparently figured out the problem. We still wouldn’t sit on anything up there without a layer of towels between our seats and theirs.😇
