And thank you for your very informative review! The Encore will be sailing Alaska for the next 6 months. All of the senior officers will rotate off and go on home leave at least once during that period. Captain maybe a couple three times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is more normal… buffet leftovers 😃 When I got this type of plate, room service said it was for the club balcony suite where some type of "amenity" is offered a couple of times a week. I think they sent strawberries as well. Since it was an "upgrade bid" I wasn't sure what exactly came with the cabin. Didn't come with a signed card like other "treats". Good luck in the casino, Bird! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a beautiful beach with soft, white sand. It was about a 45 minute ferry ride from St Thomas and 15 minute drive one you are on the island. That's one of my fav beaches! ❤️ Love your updates during the cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are thinking of going here when we are on our February Encore sailing so very happy to see you report on this.. As it as easy to get to as I have been reading and are there lots of chairs and umbrellas to rent? How long did it take to get there? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering if anyone know why the port stop in Tortola is so short? We are booked for the end of 2024 (forever away) and our port time is 6a-1p. Yes 7hrs, but I am not sure why anyone would want to be up and off the ship at 6a. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The choice is whether to have fewer, longer port calls and more sea days, or shorter port calls -5 more ports. We like more port calls, even if they are short. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted April 14, 2023 Author #198 Share Posted April 14, 2023 The A List is a secret bar nestled between Cagney’s and Los Lobos. It is a great place for a quiet drink. Originally we thought it was named after former CEO Andy Stuart. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
