I figure in less than 10 cruises (I will have to do a couple junior suites to get two points each night) I can reach Diamond Plus and then not have to buy the drink package. That would save us a tone of money. We got there with grand suites that gives us 3 hour happy hour among other perks. But when we started doing them they were a lot cheaper just a little more than junior or even balcony, this was pre oasis class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it is better to play up than to just roll over everyone else. It will help his playing so much.

Once I get those restaurant reservations done and also our MDR reservations since we like to eat at a specific time and have the same waiters I will be great. This cruise we got the Key. I enjoy the Chops menu in the MDR for a leisurely lunch before cabins open up. we have the key too! I got 12pm but I believe we will get a Key email with a different earlier time so don't worry! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was one of my "bonus freebie traits" a couple months ago.... gee, thanks a lot! LOL I never know what kind of "gem" I'll find in my inbox each week! 🤣 Here’s a gem of a video. I follow this guy on YouTube and he got his ears cleaned in an ancient traditional way. A very interesting watch. The guy speaks numerous languages and surprises people when he talks with them in their native language. He also had this done.

If nothing else just because I'm bored. I know the Key lunch is from 11am-1:30pm. In a perfect world I'm on board by 11am -11:15am make my specialty reservations and go to the Key lunch at 11:30-11:45. At some point we need to see about all of us getting together for Sail Away. Maybe Sky Bar on 12? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already paid to upgrade the cabin and added excursions and dining pkg. I think I’ve maxed out my skills of persuasion!

Oh how I hate refreshing and refreshing just waiting for that option to appear. I alternated between the app and the cruise planner on my computer. The computer opened up first. I started at 11pm CST and finally got in about 3-4 minutes after 11pm which was 12am Florida time. I was under the impression you could bypass all the information editing and go straight to pick your boarding time but it wouldn't let me even if I clicked on fill guest information later. I got a boarding time of 11:30am which was the earliest listed but I thought on previous cruises there was a 10:30 slot. I don't know if I took too long and the 10:30's got full or maybe 11:30 is the earliest. Any ideas???? I thought I was too slow checking in for our Mariner cruise, because the earliest was 11:30am. Now I’m wondering if that’s the earliest they’re offering now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost forgot this week. And I did get 11:30. Last week I think I got noon. Cannot wait for this treatment to be over and this nasty disease to be gone. Your attitude is helping. I’m impressed by your focus on healing and getting past this terrible period in your life. Prayers and good thoughts from your friends are your backups. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, my theory is the earlier you give them your bags, the earlier they will show up at your cabin. I won’t say it has usually worked out that way, because I don’t want to jinx it. I already have my reminder set for check in for our Symphony cruise, and check in is not till November 1. I always think our baggage will be in the bottom of the mountain, but I still want the earliest check in. Even if I were to get stuck sitting in the terminal, I would be across the boundary line between my life and my cruise! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mo&fran Posted September 6, 2023 #102575 Share Posted September 6, 2023 I wonder if, out of curiosity, you went back and looked closer to sailing date, if you could get an earlier time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
