Rare Lady Arwen Posted August 25 #1 Share Posted August 25 Loving it! The Sanctuary is empty. We had our choice of location for the entire week. Our lovely host said it’s not booked at all except for sea days. At the moment, we are totally alone and loving the serenity. Tonight is The Catch. Can’t wait! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grimace95120 Posted August 25 #5 Share Posted August 25 good to know, thanks ! I've got the Air Canada pilots strike looming on the 17th (uggh) and if that happens It might just have to be Porter to Newark.....

qoap24 Posted August 25 #9 Share Posted August 25 Enjoy your cruise. We get on her Saturday and I cannot wait. We fly into Newark and you had me a little freaked out until I saw your next post about using Princess Transfers. We booked through Carmel, which we have used before, so hopefully we don't regret it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have the plus package. But there is at least one night we want to do SD, but I haven't booked it because I have OBC. I am worried I am making a mistake not booking it now. I guess we shall see. Regardless, I am going to enjoy my trip as I need really need it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wishing on a star Posted August 25 #12 Share Posted August 25 Ohhhhh, you are living our dream!!!!! I will be following, if you post while onboard. I wish that there were some way to be able to get into the Sanctuary on the SUN on our next cruise. Wonder if somebody could get us into a Sanctuary Cabana if they are not all sold out? ENJOY!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor weather? My impression has been that it is like "the running of the bulls" when boarding to get a spot there. Happy cruising! ⚓ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know why, but apparently this itinerary attracts folks who want to spend the day ashore. Lucky us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lady Arwen Posted August 25 Author #17 Share Posted August 25 At 200pm the attendant said to leave our stuff and follow them. We thought we were being sent away. They took has to the biggest cabana and said please enjoy your complimentary upgrade for your entire cruise. We have gone to heaven! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LACruiser88 Posted August 25 #21 Share Posted August 25 Congratulations and enjoy! That was our home for 26 days this past fall... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lady Arwen Posted August 25 Author #22 Share Posted August 25 A sofa, two chairs, a large coffee table, a fridge, a tv, a ceiling fan and two plush loungers. At tea time we had ours in the cabana. Big tips coming their way for sure. All the attendants are fabulous and can’t do enough for us. The absolute best cruise experience ever and we are so appreciative. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, so special. We met our cabana neighbours, a young man, his husband and his mother and sister. We’re now doing the two Canadian ports with them! Fun day and six more to come. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

United is Star Alliance so they will be on AC metal . Fingers crossed between now and the 17th they settle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
