  1. Any single bet where the winnings are over $1,200 need to be reported for tax purposes. There should have been no problem bringing cash back unless it is over $10,000. They probably couldn’t believe you didn’t buy something with a portion of it and didn’t declare it
  2. That’s nice we sail on the 14th and it doesn’t look like ours have even been mailed
  3. If you let one thing go then how do you draw a line. Can you imagine an Israeli flag next door to a Gaza flag. ? I can just see some people arguing why us and nor them.
  4. There is not. Plus and premier packages waive any room service charges unless you are talking about a beverage only package
  5. Ships insurance will not cover medical as far as I know
  6. The treatment would not be free. I tipped and fell breaking 3 ribs. The next day had X-rays paid on my folio and got reimbursed. Travel insurance does not cover medical at least mine doesn’t I was back at lunch same day broken ribs do not mean staying in cabin and even if it did it is not an interruption. I have been quarantined for Covid twice and you get room service for food and booze but you don’t get reimbursement you are still on a cruise
  7. At lunch nothing to worry about I usually show up in jeans and a t shirt for breakfast and lunch. Slacks and button down shirts are reserved for dinner and many times I still wear jeans at dinner
  8. The poorly lit portion would have no chance of any lawsuit or else everyone who had tripped waking up stairs in a movie thatre coming back from the bathroom wood be rich. In my opinion most of the so called maritime lawyer are ambulance chasers just looking to make a buck
  9. Check for other ships with similar itineraries. The Coral is similar but without all the added cabins
  10. What ship and itinerary has more than 5 formal nights ?
  11. Poor taste is a very subjective idea. I also think they are concerned about political issues
  12. I have made many a trip to medical over the years and have always gotten reimbursed by my medical coverage once I got home just make sure you keep records. For those with Medicare review your coverage as some plans may not reimburse. I have a Kaiser Medicare Advantage plan and have always been able to get reimbursed
  13. Just figured that out we are on the Ruby Hoping that sailing from Canada and less passengers will help but it is sold out and I do know some of the other passengers are like me with over 500 days
  14. From which port ? We are on a smaller ship sailing from Vancouver. I know that almost all cruises out of SF and LA have lots of folks like us with over 500 days
  15. Wow that is so different from what we experience on Grand or Royal class ships. We have never waited more tha 2 minutes for a table. The menu has always been exactly the same as MDR and the extra entree was announced verbally to us when we got our menus. I guess this is one more reason you will never see me on the Sun
  16. We have a 15 day cruise next year that does to ports that Princess never goes to like Seward and Wrangell. I am assuming they are not going to publish one just for that trip. We have done inland passage and voyage of glaciers many times
  17. The Alaska 7 day cruises have a pretty low threshold maybe 200-300 days. Last summer we were in the top 10 with 470 days. Sailing Hawaii next month with 500+ days just crossing fingers
  18. I use it for wordle and connection games at breakfast. No problem doing banking, new feeds etc
  19. It is $35 for Sabatini’s and $39 for Crown Grill. So far I have not been charged the 18%. We will see what happens next month
  20. I will be on that cruise as well. I am not to worried about massive changes like the Island had. If they were going to add cabins there would be multiple deck plans and the ability to book aft suites which do not exist today
  21. You can see the menu but it will not include the “extra “ entree in Reserve dining and I have never seen an option to order from the TV
  22. The fare would be the same but not the package price. If people don’t have the package they would both have to pay for WiFi
