MalteseMama2 Posted December 15, 2019 Author #102 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I think I’ve coveted everything I meant to. This review was a spur of the moment thing. I ran into a couple problems I didn’t anticipate. For instance, I took pictures with my iPhone because it has a much better camera. But typing information on it was a pain. However, we were relying on the free internet offered to Suite guests, so to transfer pictures from the phone to my iPad I had to use John’s internet password on one device. I’ve saved the best tip (IMHO) for last. Our friend from Fredericksburg told us how to “cash out” our remaining onboard credit. He took John to the casino and basically what they did was this: Make sure you know how much credit you still have. Go to any slot machine. Tap your card on the slot machine Press ACCOUNT then PERSONAL BANKER Enter 4 digit PIN CODE, month/day of your birthday Press TRANSFER TO GAME, then ROOM CHARGE Select amount UP TO $500 and press ENTER (This is where you must know how much credit you have left) Then cash out. Happy Sailing! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Sailing! I've also been reading that you can visit Guest Services on your last day and they'll give you cash for any remaining OBC you haven't used.

BeachChik Posted December 15, 2019 #105 Share Posted December 15, 2019 A lot of judgement here about the elevators. Just because someone looks young and “able bodied” doesn’t mean they are. And even if they just want to be lazy and take the elevators that’s fine too. There is no rule saying you must be disabled to use them. People just need to learn to be more considerate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He loved the tomato soup that was offered at lunch. I couldn’t try it because it wasn’t gluten free, but he had it many times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope we can get in for it. If I want to do lunch at CK, I’ll have to sneak in through the kitchen. We’re in a Junior Suite! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Sailing! Wow...great advice! Thanks! We wanted to pull last 50.00 in OBC out, went to table and asked for chips. But then of course with each of us holding a 25.00 chip...we just "had" to play. And we both lost. 😮 Oh well, at least it wasn't our own money. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OBC given to us for free just for booking a cruise on board, that is non-refundable??...yeah...bonus that I look at as "not my earned money". 😉 I book most of my cruises online direct, so no OBC on those. Always a treat to play with OBC on board. My record still stands at leaving .18 cents on the table. 😄 Edited December 19, 2019 by island lady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
