Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Be aware if you are picked up by a minivan or suv taxi they will charge 30% more than a sedan cab!
  2. Don't be nervous. I was on the notorious sailing. Yes, some people had issues in the elevators and water issues. We went with the flow and a majority of the cruise was great. We are booked on the 4/25 & 3/26 Summit cruises. These will be our 4th & 5th cruise in a row.
  3. Every thing was back to normal last night. They were probably still cleaning up after the water line break.
  4. There was no storm.
  5. No it was not. An electrical breaker blew in the kitchen.
  6. We went around in circles to eat up some time. I feels like we are barely moving towards Nassau.
  7. We are on the Summit right now and experiencing multiple issues. After being turned away from Bimini we are headed to Nassau. The port pilot and captain agreed it was not safe to dock. We were going very slowly to Nassau because they decided that we would have 2 sea days to Nassau. On Wednesday afternoon we lost electrical power several times. One time lasted over an hour. The ship was just floating. People were stuck in elevators and had to be rescued. Several floors have been without water,air conditioning or internet. During the night several hallways and staterooms flooded from the ceiling. This has continued into Thursday but at least we have power and at this point are scheduled to dock in Nassau on Friday. It appears the issues have not affected propulsion but are affecting many other systems on the ship. So far the captain has not been good in giving information. Needless to say many people are upset and customer service is not handling it very well. For myself we have lost water and will deal with it as this is our 3rd yearly cruise on the Summit and we are not going to let this completely ruin our cruise.
  8. I leave on 4/1 for my 3rd cruise in a row on Summit. I remember that Luminae is only open on embarkation day and sea days.
  9. We've stayed at the Hampton the last 2 years. We loved it both times. The sports bar on the ground level was outstanding. There are other restaurants there also. We would be staying there in April but I ran out of points. We will have to use my IHG points at the Intercontinental.
  10. We always Uber or Lyft to the Hampton. The price will vary based on the time of day. Hampton does not have a shuttle from the airport.
  11. We will be staying at the Intercontinental on Biscayne Ave in Miami before our cruise. We will be there on Easter Sunday. Is there somewhere that has Easter buffet at a reasonable price. The buffet at the hotel will be pricey. We are willing take an Uber to a more reasonable price. I realize that all restaurants are expensive for Easter. Even a diner with good food will do. TIA
  12. Order it after you disembark once you have your luggage. Walk out the doors and you should see the area where shuttles and ride shares pick up.
  13. We have never had a problem getting an Uber within 10 minutes.
  14. Jim, So which one are you taking, the grey suit or your tuxedo?
  15. We had to call FBC to get our seats assigned for our AA flights. Also United allowed us to get seats online. My AA tickets weren't paid for even after I made final payment. I called FBC and magically my tickets were paid for.
