cctn Posted July 4, 2008 #760 Share Posted July 4, 2008 I'll keep that in mind. :D Thanx!!! I think I don't let anything get in the way tho' = our last cruise in May - 14 days-- Alaska, the Serenade was a norovirus ship and I didn't realize it - not til I got home and I read the news. Luckily, hubby and I didn't get sick - it was a norov. ship before we boarded in SF and again the following cruise after us - Corkey Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseAwayWithMe Posted July 5, 2008 #761 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Really? Good thing that you didn't get the dreaded norovirus. :eek: I was onboard the Liberty about a month after the norovirus scare. Everything was okay though. We asked some crew about the norovirus on the Liberty. They acted like they never heard of it. I guess, they are paid to pretend everything is okay. :p I always wash my hands before every meal & use any hand sanitizer. Also, I wipe down the cabin with some clorox wipes. It never hurts to try to be too clean. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we are careful too - mostly, I think we tried to get as much fresh air as we could, tried to stay away from people with colds, coughs, etc. -- washed our hands -- Corkey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cctn Posted July 5, 2008 #763 Share Posted July 5, 2008 There's a thread called Mariner's Of the Seas; the SHip - it has lots of nice pics of the Mariner for those of you who haven't seen the ship yet... Corkey Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseAwayWithMe Posted July 5, 2008 #764 Share Posted July 5, 2008 24 hours from 7 AM I will be on my flight over to Orlando, Florida. I'm sure that most of the sickness probably start on the airplane. It's just so confined and everyone is touching everything! :eek: I dunno how to stay safe on the airplane. Maybe just not touch my mouth or nose. Try to keep my hands washed even though it's an airplane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beej Posted July 5, 2008 #765 Share Posted July 5, 2008 I try never to fly without taking AirBorne. I try to take a few days ahead, but always before a flight. Hand sanitizer gets a workout, too. It can really be scary with all the little things being recycled right at you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseAwayWithMe Posted July 5, 2008 #766 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Did Airborne actually work for you everytime? I read about Airborne. Not everyone agrees that it works, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beej Posted July 5, 2008 #767 Share Posted July 5, 2008 So far it is working. i did get little cold or something last trip, but half the ship had it. i think i got on board. i took the airborne every four hours for three or four days and it was gone. others who were coughing and had runny noses lasted a lot longer. i always use it at the start of a cold and it seems to minimize the time. Can't hurt to try it, no drugs in it. Only one suggestion, if you want to cary it with you, buy it off the ship, like home. it is almost double the price on board have a great trip BON VOYAGE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseAwayWithMe Posted July 5, 2008 #768 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Oh, yes I've noticed that everything is double price on the cruise ship. :p I can buy something at home for 1/4 of the price usually. But, airport security is so tight that they take everything. :eek: Last year they created a rule where you have to carry under 3 oz. We had suntan lotion in a carry on bag and it got taken. I'm bringing some 2 oz hand sanitizer, hope it doesn't get taken. I put it in a plastic zip lock. Should be okay. I understand that the rules are for saftey but they are getting very tight. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beej Posted July 5, 2008 #769 Share Posted July 5, 2008 As long as you use a 1 quart baggie and nothing is over 3 ounces you'e good to go. If you have liquids in big bottles see if your local pharmacy will sell you a couple of 3oz medicine bottles to put it in. Otherwise scotch tape the top so it won't open, put it in a plastic bag and pack in your checked luggage. The tape keeps everything closed and the bag is there for insurance.

We'll try to keep the ship, shipshape, but the Royals may be gone from the pub with the Royal mariner Crooners aboard:D We sail the same week as Emma - there is a Roll Call for our sailing. It has been a bit quiet yet - hopefully when the shore excursion info comes out it will pick up some. (I know you can get the shore excursion info other ways - I was just thinking it might make everyone start planning/thinking more about the cruise and generate more talking) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
