  1. We have plus so don’t use the bottles much. We trade them out for vodka and pour them into empty water bottles and use them for Bloody Mary’s and Screwdrivers at home
  2. That is one of the cheapest things I have heard of. Do you not know that when you tip you waiter in a land based restaurant that it some of it goes to bus people and bartenders. Do your logic that tips are pooled makes no sense at all
  3. Did 14 days in Alaska on the Discovery in June. No such thing
  4. We have over 45o days. Alaska cruises we almost always make the cut. On Hawaiian cruises it is hit or miss. Panama we also always get an invite
  5. Some of us are tired of waiting over an hour to sit down for a pizza or an hour for room service to arrive and stepping over piles of dishes in hallways
  6. If you google a ship and date you can often find more information on cruises like these
  7. These theme cruises are usually not done by the cruise lines but by travel agents who have groups on board who are paying to meet the celebrities. I was on a coastal cruise a few years ago awash with SF 49er players and fans
  8. My wife and I both hit jackpots on an Alaskan cruise the last night before Victoria snd about a moth later the tax papers arrived in the mail. If you are a US citizen I believe anything over $1,200 is considered taxable on a slot payout. I have gotten them on several cruises in different areas of the world
  9. When the table minimum is $6 I will bet $5 and put the extra dollar on Lucky Ladies.
  10. The laundry perk and mini bar are the best in my opinion
  11. All my shoes are now Allbirds and On Clouds. Nothing to polish here
  12. That is the beverage package by its own no requirement for 2 in cabin to have not the plus fare with Wi-Fi and gratuities which requires first 2 to take
  13. Very few grand class ships have a pizza restaurant
  14. Concierges are only on Royal class ships and only handle full suite passengers. We have watched many people turned away by the hostess. If you are going to ask for a favor on one night or so I would check with the Reserve class manager
  15. I am sailing on the Crown in a month and always sail in aft suites which on Grand class ships makes it easy to get to suite breakfast but really prefer mid ship for dinner
  16. On every post Covid cruise I have taken the Reserve class dining has always been in the midship dining room. Did they move the sign to the aft dining room ?
  17. They may be stating that but all of my future cruises look to be very heavily booked
  18. Very few Grand class ships have a pizza restaurant
  19. When there are lots of families on board it is like being in a Chucky Cheese
  20. Paying a little might well be preferable to the 1 hour plus wait there was for a table in June on the Discovery to some people
  21. Counting on things staying the same anywhere land or sea is expecting a lot
