Also USB ports near the bed

Pig and anchor still free, no filet.

Chibang and Cuchina free the first time, $8 each time there after.

Boarding tomorrow, hope to see you there!

I'd buy/borrow an old phone from someone and just connect to the wifi and use the app. Can't imagine not having it. I used to enjoy locking the phone in the safe and not seeing it until debark but, those days are over. I no longer take a camera either.

And the credit for one free drink you get on those ships is a little loop hole to get a 16th drink with drink package.  

You sure about that? I guess we'll find out next week!😁

Wonder if that free drink counts towards your CHEERS...  

 

Yep, only the ones on the trays don't.

A version of the strawberry soup is on the elegant night menu. It's called "Chilled Strawberry and Chia Seed" now. And, I imagine it now has chia seeds in it.

Does it make you grow funny hair?

Seriously? Wife hits Platinum this weekend and we were looking forward to tipping a server and getting a tray!

And how in the hell do they know what my credit limit is on my card?

Ohhh... So have the new menus not officially rolled out on any of the ships yet? For some reason, I was thinking they had already started on a few.

We are on the 10/19 Sunshine sailing…very first sailing with the new menu. Not sure I am excited about that.  First, the new menu isn’t grabbing me so much.  And second, being the Guinea pig for their very first time!

 

Has anyone else sailed on the first sailing with the new menu?  Would love to hear some thoughts. 

My Wife and I were talking about this last night. I was so excited and she's like..."Great, it may be awesome..or it may be a ***** show!"

First night, new menus...Planning on long service times. Hopefully the food quality doesn't suffer.

Me too, leave next week.  Will be interested in seeing if the new menus are out on our sailing.

According to John Heard or whatever his name is, Mardi Gras gets it starting Saturday!

Speaking of South Beach ... is there a reasonably priced hotel you would recommend?  We have a full day and night pre-cruise and usually stay at the airport area for convenience but this next time (December) we want to try a day of exploring around South Beach.   

We stayed here:

And will be going back in November. Great lil chic hotel. 

Wish you could view the menus for upcoming cruises on the Hub App. Can't find out until next week.

It's gonna be rough without one.

Luckily I think the Fun Times are back to paper.

Brand Ambassador John Heald posted on his FB page about the updated timeline for the rollout of the new MDR menus.  Here's the timeline:

 

He mentioned in his post that the Luminosa and Splendor are scheduled to get it at the start of 2024.

Thank you, YEESSSSSSS We board Mardi Gras on 8/19!

See ya Saturday!!

Gimme my $12! 🤣

Stockholder benefits have only been denied that I know of for the, You cruise for $200 and we give you the $200 back cruises. Got one scheduled for Nov, not anticipating getting the credit on that one.

Going on a casino offer this weekend and got the credit...the cruise was still $2k plus.

I could do Rat Pack for all meals.

Post Malone, Pink, and Ace of Bass doesn't scream upscale dining to me. 

Wish they would let you see them and the menus ahead of time on the Hub App. With the caveat that it's subject to change.

Great choice, enjoy!

Could possibly have to do with average passenger age?

On the Liberty this weekend, the only time I checked was after my first night. I was in there for almost 3 hours and managed about 900 points (BJ only).

Cool, that makes me happy 😁

I'll post my experience here next week!

This is slightly confusing to me because I have the same count down but I can also order stuff, book excursions, speciality restaurant, Etc… but my friend shows the same thing u r showing only that count down clock. 

Mine does too but, I think if they scroll down they'll see more items. 

Mine shows a link to download my documents, we board this weekend though.
