Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Oh my! Those last two photos show a very appetizing entree. They really did not make the plate look attractive did they!
  2. Remember too that while you age up to please your 5 year old kindergarten child, there will be kids in that group that are 8 about to turn nine who might not be so happy to have them there.
  3. Thank you for the photos. I think my scooter will fit fine in this cabin.
  4. May I ask if you are in a two or three/four person cabin? (Does the sofa pull out into a bed). We are sailing in these cabins next month are trying to figure out the space available for my small scooter. We will be in cabin 1824.
  5. Thank you both so much! No point in packing spin shoes if they don't have the clips!
  6. Does anyone know if the exercise bikes on Adventure of the Seas have bike clips on the pedals for spin shoes? Also, do they have wifi on the bikes so we can log in to our Peloton accounts for the ride. Thanks for any help!
  7. I spent about 70 minutes in the ship medical facility before they returned to port and off loaded us to an ambulance. They charged me just over $2,200 for what was billed as 70 minutes in their ICU. Luckily we had out of country medical insurance and they paid all but about two hundred of that bill. Surprisingly our regular heatlhcare coverage paid 100% of the bill in the San Juan hospital. They were even in network!
  8. Keep in mind that depending on where you are from and sailing out of - USA/Foreign Country - your phones might work until sail away and you might be able to skip day one and purchase the package starting on Day 2. That is a good chunk of savings right there.
  9. If the Serenade Captain was able to give frequent updates to those on board, then there is no reason why the shoreside staff were unable to keep the passengers waiting to board updated as well. Thank you for your updates Jacquelyn - you are much more informative than Royal has been!
  10. You do realize that 'Hurricane Season' encompasses six months of the year? That is 50%! That includes the very expensive July and August cruises. Personally I totally understand that weather issues are out of the control of Royal. What IS in their control is being honest and up front with passenger both on the ship and waiting to get on the ship. They need to make sure the correct information is being given out through all their social media channels. They need to make their updates more frequently - even if they just state that they are still waiting for the Coast Guard to complete their inspections of the channel. To just go radio silent and leave people hanging is just plain wrong. Carnival managed to get info to their passengers.
  11. Carnival have updated what is happening for Carnival Paradise - also porting out of Tampa. "Carnival Paradise 08/31/23 – The cruise will now be operated as a 3-day, departing tomorrow, 09/01/23, as a voyage without a port of call. We will communicate with impacted guests by 1:00 PM today. " It would be lovely if Royal would inform us what is happening. I imagine that given the circumstances the US Government can provide a waiver for the laws regarding foreign ports.
  12. We are taking our first cruise where I will be bringing my own personal electric scooter. Cruising out of Tampa and we are unsure where exactly my husband should drop me off with my scooter. Do we park as usual and then drive the scooter to the regular door? Or should he drop me off first and then park the car? What about our luggage? Hoping he can drop of me, the scooter and our luggage at the curb near entryway and then park the car. Anyone have experience with the Tampa port? Thanks.

  14. Very strange! I got the price increase email with a listing of our upcoming cruise on Adventure next March. Taxes are going up $9 in total. Here is the strange part - WE ARE NOT GOING TO ANY BAHAMAS PORTS! Cruise goes to Haiti, D.R., St. Thomas and St. Croix! Why did we get the email and why the Bahama tax increase on a cruise that does not sail to the Bahamas?
