I wonder if I’m going to be setting off metal detectors in the airport and cruise port now. I already get all of the random searches as it is. I don’t need anymore heat on me. For some reason my knee set off an alarm last time I flew. And, no, there was no reason for it. But now I’m thinking that my right knee may need replaced in the future 😜 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s something I hope I never have to go through. Knee and back problems don’t look fun. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I was at the South lot. They have some kind of October special happening and it's only 25 cents/day more to park in the North lot. Last time it would've been like $5/day more. I guess I'm starting to accumulate points with them. My account says I have enough points for a free day. I'll probably save those for a time when they don't have a sale going on. That's not bad though. I only parked there for Mardi Gras...and I parked at the one in Houston when I went on that short Cozumel trip in May. Yay another live review! Glad the dental work is over for ya-years of braces made me not like having people mess with my mouth at all. Parking spot must be running some kind of sale-using the one in STL in Jan when we fly out for our Panorama cruise. Tried to get reasonable flights from our town but $1000 for the 3 of us vs $375 for 3 of us (reward miles + SWA sale) made paying for parking an easy sell-and I am doing covered parking so we won't have to deal with possible ice scraping of window when we get back. Plus have never had an issue with shuttles (unlike hotel shuttles) Hope this week goes fast for you!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted October 17, 2021 Author #62 Share Posted October 17, 2021 (edited) I woke up with some swelling this morning. I had some yesterday but this was more. So I’m not going to do the pizza thing today. I’m going to make loaded mashed potatoes. Edited October 17, 2021 by Saint Greg 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azjim66 Posted October 17, 2021 #63 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Looking forward to this review!. My wife and I were also on the Panorama 2/29/20 when we got held over an extra day.

Sometimes I set off the detector, sometimes I don't! Just had the 4th surgery on April 1st., so I'm still not 100%, but that's not going to stop me from our cruise next week!!!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my return flight, at Newark, it was my shoulder/neck area. Huh? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotscrapz Posted October 17, 2021 #68 Share Posted October 17, 2021 So happy to have found this thread and read along! I’ll be getting on the day you get off. Very unplanned last minute cruise but the price was impossible to say no to! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I’m not going to do the pizza thing today. I’m going to make loaded mashed potatoes. Recently went through similar dental work. Front tooth cracked root needed bridge or implant. Went with the bridge due to shorter healing time. Just a word or caution. My temporary would pop off and I would need to return to dentist to have reattached. Since you are going to be out of touch with your dentist, I would recommend asking him for adhesive you can use (my dentist offered me that after the second time) or at least go to a drug store and pick up a dental kit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THIS IS US! Posted October 18, 2021 #75 Share Posted October 18, 2021 On 10/15/2021 at 1:11 PM, Saint Greg said: Booking I had a FCC (Future Cruise Credit) from Carnival that had $600 OBC (On Board Credit) attached to it. I believe the booking had to be made by the end of September for a cruise by the end of next year. Otherwise the FCC would still be good but I would lose the OBC. Saint Greg my DM and I were in the same situation as I am sure many others were as well. Excited for our first cruise post COVId after all the cancellations and rebooking. I like ok forward to your updates as always. For those that are new, Saint Greg is my John Heald (Go to for all things Carnival). If by any chance you could let us know if they still have food available in the morning adjacent to check in, that would be great. We are sailing in November and flying in day of. Thanks for all you do Saint Greg and happy sailing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
