    We cancelled NYE Anthem cruise. My fear is being turned away from ports. We booked because we wanted to go to SXM. I don’t want to be stuck in my cabin. People think that won’t happen.  But looks like Odessey was turned away from Curaçao today.   There was a post on FB indicating the Casino is closed passengers are being told to stay in their cabins.  This has not been confirmed yet. But it’s exactly why I cancelled

    Have you received refund or credit for your cancelled cruise?

    I know exactly how many rooms are left in each category, except those that still have over 100 rooms available, because the site I use only shows up to 100 rooms in a category. As of this morning, there are still at least 616 balcony rooms available across all balcony categories. There are still 27 angled balconies left on decks 10 through 15 (not counting the one I'm booked in). So I really think canceling is super low risk as far as room choice is concerned. The main risk, as I see it, is that prices won't drop significantly enough to make up for the $60 difference in price between what I paid and the current price. I got a $100pp discount when booking because of unused airfare, but prices have dropped $40 since then, so current prices are $60 over what I paid. They would need to drop by more than that $60 in order to make cancelling worthwhile.

    Where do you see available inventory?

  3. Book now to freeze your price. If by April, the price has not gone up, then cancel and rebook onboard.

     

    If you do not cancel before rebooking onboard, they do not allow you to book the same cabin. If it is still booked by you, next cruise department has no access to booked cabins, and they would not cancel it for you (this is what I was told on board Anthem).

  4. Alas, it was time to jump in! And I'm never one to be shy when told to go, so off I went and waited for our guide from the ship to collect everyone in our group. Here is the Woodwind looking back once I jumped in, and in the distance on the bottom right you can just make out the Adventure so that you can get a feel for the approximate distance from the shore and the port.

     

    Your pictures are awesome! We are planning to book Woodwind on our next cruise to Bonaire. Do you remember if there is any other way to get to the water from their boat but jumping (any ladder or steps to the water)? My DH is not so good jumper...

    Thank you for your great review. Very helpful!

  5. No, just one person needs to book it for the $250. If it is like the old cabanas, it available for up to 6 people. Good score! :)

    Thank you! Price is really not bad for up to 8 sittings.

     

    I think it is very good for playing cards + beer company. But it has no lounge chairs for just relaxing...

  6. Thank you so much for your reply.

     

    I have another question, actually 2::)

     

    What is the advantage of booking onboard a particular cruise vs NextCruise certificate with "open" date?

     

    Where I can find all terms and conditions about NextCruise?

     

    Thank you in advance.

     

    I just found some info on Crown & Anchor Society> Special Offers> Onboard Booking Bonus:

  7. I'm just the opposite. I will always book as soon as the itineraries are released as many times that is the lowest the price will ever be as we are cruising at Christmas and March Break. I book several "dummy" cruises at Christmas and take the instant OBC so I get the full amount. When the new itineraries come out I can change them without losing any of my OBC or deposit. I know what cabin type I want and the length of cruise isn't going to change for me. By waiting until I am actually on board to book the cruise that I want would mean paying more for that cruise than when it was released.

     

    If I end up having too much OBC then I take it out in cash at the casino and put it into the cruise fund for future use.

     

    Could you please advise:

    I have already booked my Harmony B2B cruise at the price about $300 lower than the current online rate. I will be on Anthem next month. If I buy my NextCruise Certificate onboard Anthem, can I apply it to my existing booking on Harmony with MY rates, not current rates online?

  8. When going to Nellie's recommend you get there asap if you want to secure a nice shady spot. Beach area fills up fast and the sun can be brutal. IMO best spots are under the thatched roof umbrella-like posts. They have a shelf which keeps your personal items out of the sand.

    Where do you recommend to eat at Nellie's beach? I do not see any "food" spot close to it on Labadee map.

    Thank you in advance.
