  1. Our receipt says the tour includes tickets to USS Arizona Memorial (on board), USS Missouri, USS Bowfin submarine, and Pearl Harbor Aviation museum, as well as various places in and around Honolulu. Tour lasts all day but sounded pretty good to us. Thanks for your advice!
  2. We're on this cruise too and plan to spend 4 nights post-cruise. Also interested in any suggestions! We were also looking at the Outrigger Resort/Hotel on Waikiki beach! Mosey on over to the informal roll call if you dare! We already purchased ticket for a Pearl Harbor tour on Monday, October 2nd, since I heard they sell out quickly! Considering also purchasing tickets for Chief's luau, which will open up for booking 5 months pre-cruise! Maybe we'll see you on the ship or out there somewhere! Cheers!
  3. Why are you asking these questions twice? I posted on your first one.
  4. Hmmmm, I recently bought tickets for a Pearl Harbor tour from an independent operator for October 2, 2023 during our hotel stay post-cruise because I had heard that tickets sell out quickly and wanted to be sure to get some. I like things planned way in advance. Did I goof this time?

    Four of us will be on Celebrity Solstice in September, 2023. The Outrigger on Waikiki beach looks incredible! Can you give me some more details if you have a moment please? TIA
  6. I didn't think so either; however, a few years ago (can't remember when exactly), we were on a B2B. On turnaround day, we noticed a room steward, who seemed very upset. We stopped to ask him if he was ok. He proceeded to tell us that he had been taking care of 2 cabins all week and the young guests occupying the cabins were extremely messy and he worked very hard for them. He was angry that they had their gratuities removed and did not leave him any tips whatsoever. So, now I wonder if they are able to find out when gratuities are removed. Just sayin' that was our experience.
  7. There's another thread posted by someone currently on the Wonder, so I posed your question to them: Good luck!
  8. There's another thread posted about the Wonder, which is asking if they are having the belly flop contest at the pool. Maybe you'll be able to answer that question for them. TIA!
  9. Hmmm, has anyone ever seen females enter the belly flop contest?😏
  10. If you're going on the cruise fairly soon, the menu will be displayed in your cruise planner on the app. We're going on Mariner in October for 8 nights to Bermuda and I can view the menu on my app. Oops, you beat me!
  11. Hmmm, IDK but a bunch of us are going on the Wonder this December and we specifically reserved 2 casitas by the pool for the 2nd to the last sea day, which is usually the day for the belly flop! We'll be disappointed if it's not held for sure! We'll just have to drink more, I guess!😏
  12. Not sure about the outcome from a phone call pre-cruise; however, I do know that, when we were on a previous cruise a couple of years ago, our adult kids were able to upgrade their refreshment packages to Deluxe on board the ship by just paying the difference.
  13. Dang! We got bypassed for February 2024!🥴
  14. Our February 2024 Voyager change to Adventure has not yet been processed either. Hoping we keep the same room!🤞
  15. I also have a B2B2B in October of this year from PC on Mariner. The 1st leg is a 5-night and the other 2 are 8 nights which include Bermuda on the 2nd two legs. Now what? Shall I assume that they will test us on board before continuing to Bermuda? Ken? Anyone? TIA!
  16. When we were there, our family rented a car and drove up Mt Haleakala to watch the sunrise. One word - breathtaking!! Unforgettably one of my best experiences! Good luck! Cheers!
  17. Sorry, no, I don't but I would check Trip Advisor for suggestions.
  18. I believe Celebrity has an 11-night in May, 2023; if so, that would be my choice. Have fun! Cheers!
  19. Best luau we've ever been to was the original Lahaina luau in Maui. So, after looking at a few of them in Honolulu, we will be picking the Chief's luau, which has a 5-star rating from Trip Advisor. We'll be celebrating anniversaries for DH and I, as well as my DB and his wife, so looking forward to the cruise to Hawaii!! Cheers!!
  20. We went to the Mystery dinner once but many, many years ago. We thought it was "meh" and probably a 1 and done for us. About a dozen or so of us sat at a large table for the dinner. Throughout the meal, the actors would appear and the act was based on a "Who done it?" scenario (murder mystery). We thought our actors weren't very into it and the performance was just ok. Try to read more reviews to see if it has improved at all or even if they have enough staff to put on a good performance. We would not book it again, unless we heard better reviews. Good luck and hope you have a great cruise! Cheers! Oh and welcome to Cruise Critic!
  21. I just repriced the DBP for Odyssey next February. Price decreased from $77.99 (20% off) to $67.99 (30% off), so saved a total of $188.70 for both of us. I originally bought the RP for us and our adult kids (x4) to celebrate my milestone birthday but they had to cancel cause they refuse to get vaccinated. We were going to pay for their cruise too. So, I figured, what the heck, it's my birthday, so switched it to the DBP! Cheers!
  22. Thanks, me too! I did go ahead and email that question to RCCL in hopes they add it to their web site as well.
  23. We're booked in October on Mariner and begin with a 5-night, so no testing is required; however, we're staying on board for the next 8-night itinerary, so how will we be able to test or will it be required? TIA for your thoughts! Sal
