FirstTimeCruisr Posted February 6, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Can you pay more to get the spa amenity if you are not in the spa deck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejchron Posted February 6, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Staggered registration worked very well. They were checking times on boarding passes and limiting access to those in the correct window. We got there a few minutes after our window (hotel shuttle...) and were escorted past the current group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejchron Posted February 6, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted February 6, 2016 New internet (not the Hub app yet) works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejchron Posted February 6, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I don't think the spa deck perks apply to Triumph but I'll check. BTW, we're in 1114 on Spa Deck. Might be my favorite cabin yet, simply due to access - just step out the door, turn right and through the door, and your on deck. I love it.

ejchron Posted February 6, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Confirmed: no special rates for the Spa Deck on Triumph. Everyone pays the same rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desilennay Posted February 6, 2016 #7 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I see that you said the Hub app isn't working yet. I wonder if they'll let you know of a general date? I'm cruising on the Triumph in October. Thanks for all the info btw! Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejchron Posted February 6, 2016 Author #8 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I tried to use it but got a general message that the ship wasn't ready. I'll ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenMo Posted February 6, 2016 #9 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Can you pay more to get the spa amenity if you are not in the spa deck Triumph does not have the Cloud 9 Spa. There are no amenities to buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txmom11 Posted February 6, 2016 #10 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Renata at the Alchemy bar is great. As is Moseley at the Red Frog Bar on the Lido deck. :) We just left this morning. Be warned, internet is spotty once you get out to sea, but who cares. Have a great time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djh Posted February 6, 2016 #11 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Why are you still there? Was there a delay getting onboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejchron Posted February 7, 2016 Author #12 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Not sure why. They were loading the last of the luggage around 5:00. We thought it was strange too. Late flight they were holding for, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christyran1228 Posted February 7, 2016 #13 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) We are on the Triumph in 7 days ... I thought it only did 4 & 5-day cruises, with a couple of Journies cruises thrown in? Edited February 7, 2016 by christyran1228 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallFour4 Posted February 7, 2016 #14 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) Not sure why. They were loading the last of the luggage around 5:00. We thought it was strange too. Late flight they were holding for, maybe? It's Mardi Gras weekend in Galveston. The traffic patterns on I-45 reflect thousands more people on the island than what's a normal day. Today the traffic delay ranged from 5 min to almost an hour. That's reason to hold the ship for those on buses traveling from the airport. .

ejchron Posted February 7, 2016 Author #15 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Having a great time. Got up early to attend the Planet Alignment Viewing - very cool. Shot some GoPro time-lapse video of both sail away and this morning's sunrise (will post a link later). Had the huevos rancheros at Blue Iguana - as good as the sea-day brunch and we ate it on deck. Internet access is great so far. Ship is showing some wear but it's in much better shape than I expected after reading some recent reviews. Will post more later. Let me know if you have specific questions. Evan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
