GoHoward Posted July 24, 2021 #1 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Embarkation this morning was fast and smooth, though the facial recognition only worked for two of four family members. From the Uber to the ship took about 20 minutes. Gus Antorcha is aboard welcoming guests, the Lido offerings are as superb as ever, and we have clear blue skies for sail away! The energy and excitement of all the passengers and crew to be sailing again after HAL’s 597 day hiatus is palpable! 27 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoHoward Posted July 25, 2021 Author #10 Share Posted July 25, 2021 For those sailing later this season - post any questions you have and I’ll try to answer them when in port. I don’t purchase onboard WiFi as a rule as I try to disconnect while at sea! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lstrong Posted July 25, 2021 #12 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I would love to see a picture of the current bar prices. I don’t have the promotion and am wondering about the increase in prices. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are uploaded as PDFs in the app. Most cocktails are $10 and under and wine tended to be a bit pricier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re Lido buffet at lunch, do they still offer the various stations like Italian, Asian, that idea, like they used to. My husband is curious! Enjoy your cruise.

Cruise Contract says 1 PP, nc but any after will be $20 corckage fee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
