Wildcatfish Posted September 8, 2017 #926 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I am anxiously watching from myrtle beach. My heart is breaking for all those affected by Irma. A coworker has been planning her wedding near you at Garden City Beach... for Sunday. How are things in your area, and what do you think the chances are of a Sunday wedding taking place on the beach?

Clarea Posted September 8, 2017 #928 Share Posted September 8, 2017 A bit of work but we have unlimited free Surf one hour at a time. Biker, who is much safer on Oasis than home in Oakland Park. How does that work? Does every guest on the ship have the free hour at the same time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted September 8, 2017 #929 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Yes, though most probably don't realize that it's renewable. The first choice in the list of packages is the free 60 minutes. It was 30 minutes at a time. I have not seen it on other ships but they also offered a "mid cruise special" for Stream at $50 - not much of a saving over the remaining days package.

Bahamas Paradise is having a 4 day cruise to nowhere tomorrow leaving port of Palm Beach. $50 per person, per night. Might be on that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakeconmag Posted September 8, 2017 #935 Share Posted September 8, 2017 How does that work? Does every guest on the ship have the free hour at the same time? Yes! On the Harmony. The captain announces when it starts and when it ends. Guests just go to Royal wifi and connect. Today it was activated for two hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlmbar Posted September 8, 2017 #938 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Who knows??? I'm reading so much stuff out of the media today, it think they are trying to stir-up hysteria at this point just to keep us watching them. Sent from my iPhone using Forums You have got to be kidding! This is not fake news. The media is trying to inform people and warn them so that they will evacuate where it is necessary and not create problems for the EMT etc and to prevent needless deaths. I doubt there is any exaggeration and no need to stir up hysteria. I think the pictures of the Caribbean are enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today it was activated for two hours. Not like that on Oasis. You have to sign up for the 60 minute package like any other VOOM package, it just costs nothing.

LadiDicruiser Posted September 8, 2017 #943 Share Posted September 8, 2017 The only things I have seen that don't appear right are - there is a news article saying Jose will batter the same islands as Irma....and if you look at the NOAA tracking, doesn't look like Jose is going anywhere near.

When it goes by it is expected to be 120-130 mph. At current time they are on the outer portion of the path so if it stays the same they will at min get tropical force winds and rain. You also have to understand that any wind they get is bad as structures are weak and there are still several things laying on the ground that will get blown around. Not to mention the places they have to shelter are very limited. Any type of severe weather these islands receive will not be beneficial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewSalt Posted September 8, 2017 #946 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I feel a little bit like Typhoid Mary. After talking about doing it for a few years, last week I finally made plans to spend some time in the Florida Keys next year before our February cruise AND booked a cruise for next summer to St, Martin, among other places. Just a few days ago, DD and I were talking about how much we were looking forward to re-visiting one of our favorite beaches. Of course, we'll be disappointed if we can't, but that's completely a third-world problem compared to what the unfortunate people on those devastated islands are facing. My heart breaks when I think of how little so many of those lovely people have and now they've lost even that. And they'll also face a loss of income for quite some time until tourism returns to normal. On several of the tours we've taken in the Caribbean, the tour guide has pointed out damage from hurricanes that happened years before. But I do find it a little humorous, in a gallows-type way, that every communication I've seen from the cruise lines regarding cruises that are being extended have mentioned reduced alcohol prices as the first item being offered at a reduced rate.
