  1. I was pretty sure I wouldn't be able to but DS insisted I find out.
  2. Nice, do Plats have another waiting area?
  3. We have used Trip Advisor for many excursions in various ports. Just be mindful of the times of return to port. We always opt for very early start times with getting back to port a few hours before all aboard time. A lot of excursions guarantee timely return to port.
  4. We're cruising with our son and his family. I'll be doing the platinum check in two days early. Our bookings are linked. He asked if I can check them in, too. I don't think so, but I told him I would check. Is this doable?
  5. We haven't sailed out of Miami since turning platinum. Is there a separate waiting area? We will be sailing with my son and family and we are surprising the grandkids, they don't know we'll be sailing with them. We don't want them to see us before we board.
  6. I really don't have a favorite entree. There are a couple desserts I like. Grand Mariner souffle and Bitter and Blanc. I get these every cruise.
  7. I've seen this on the menu but have never tried it. It looks really good. Can you tell them how you want the steak cooked? The above is just a touch rarer than I like.
  8. I usually bring my own hair dryer, but we are flying this time and I'm trying to pack light. Does anyone know if the hairdryers on the Magic are the kind that you have to hold the button down for it to work?
  9. It must have been so thrilling to be that close to these majestic animals. It almost seems like they were putting on a show for you.
  10. I had similar experiences on the Magic. I was pre-op on a knee scooter. The staff in the buffet were very helpful carrying my plates and drinks.
  11. After seeing the gold by the inch on several cruises, I broke down and bought a bracelet and charm for my granddaughter. What a POS. I don't remember how much I paid, but what ever I paid, it was too much.
  12. Off topic, I attended a couple of tapings of Family Feud last month. Steve Harvey is hilarious. I sure wouldn't want to be the person to do the editing for airing. Sorry to highjack your post.
  13. People do this? It's never occurred to me, but it will going forward 😉
  14. They price match alcohol. I brought them a picture of rum from port that was a couple $s cheaper and the ship matched it.
  15. John Heald said he was "gobsmacked " by the hateful and insensitive remarks made by some posters on his FB page. WTH is wrong with people??
  16. Working at a department store, I feel like I have a very good handle on what is a good deal on the ship, especially with my employee discount, so not much. Also, when I tell the spa folks I work at M***ys, they stop with the sales pitch.
  17. I didn't say no one buys them. We sell lots of them. I'm saying they are not a premium brand. The average price of an MK is $300 to $600+. Guess is under $100. We don't put security tags on them. We don't have a theft problem with them like we do with like a brand like Coach, etc.
  18. Guess is considered the "costume jewelry" of the handbag world.
  19. I always wondered why Guess was such a big deal on the ship. I work for a major department store and Guess handbags are not considered high end. They are kept in a different area from Michael Kors, Coach, Kate Spade, etc.
  20. Same here, I was about 6 months post op and they said I couldn't get a massage. I got a facial instead.
  21. This just goes to show you how subjective taste can be. The hubs loves Italian food. I can take it or leave it. It all tastes the same to me. He loves it. We always have supper there at least once.
