My wife rolls her eyes in regards to my six pairs. I'm pretty sure that many shoes, even in YC, is exceptional among male cruisers. 👞 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I 'bit the bullet' and for $60 upgraded the complimentary browse wifi to streaming. That's a passel of towels, make no mistake. With that many towels, you could open a small car wash... Whoa, whoa, whoa, talking 'bout a car wash, yeah. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How they snuck in and got past everyone as far as seating themselves at a table is beyond us." If only there was a way to escort the interlopers out of YC to the tune of Chopin's funeral march. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have heard so many wonderful things about maitre d' Arthur over the years. Would you be able to find out if he'll still be on board in September? We'll be on 9/10 - 24. Thanks! Just asked Arthur if he will be on in September. Said I had a friend and great admirer of his that can not wait to see him in September. Yes was his answer.

Rare Georgia_Peaches Posted June 12, 2023 #92 Share Posted June 12, 2023 (edited) 5 hours ago, NCteacherlovescruising said: You don't wear your wristbands? We didn't wear ours either. They are made of rubber and after a day of wearing one, my wrist had some sort of reaction at the contact point. This only became a minor issue when we went to the YC area of the PI where a very astute employee tried to redirect us to another area. Our most excellent butler came to our rescue. The other person as much as scolded me for not wearing my band but I explained my reaction to the rubber so he gave me a pass. From that point on, we just carried them and kept them visible when it was warranted. Additionally, it is my understanding that wristbands can be purchased by non YC passengers to use on board as well so I'm not sure that the wristband alone is enough of a tell for who should/shouldn't be in YC.

kelleherdl Posted June 12, 2023 #93 Share Posted June 12, 2023 I went and looked. Half of my wristbands from previous cruises have the YC logo and the other half only have the MSC logo. I’m thinking all the new YC ones have the YC logo as they are the only ones that are issued to guests gratis. They came in the YC folder at checkin.
