Just Off the Majesty of the Seas!!

[wolfcathorse]

someone posted last month that Abe Huges had moved to Brilliance.

 

OP - am I to understand that since your did Customs and Immigration in Key West, that you didn't do it in Miami, you just walked off the ship and got your taxi?

Glad you had a great time. This will be our second time sailing on her. Was there a barbeque at the pool one of the nights? We missed it because of rain. Just wondering if they still have it.

Yes,you just walk through customs in Key West, and in Miami it's off you go.

We're doing a b2b on the Majesty too, what was the process for clearing customs on Monday morning on the turnaround day? How long did you have the ship to yourself before the new passengers started boarding?

 

It was really simple. After everyone had left the ship, they took us down to customs, they looked at our passports, said hello and we were back on the ship.

 

We had new Seapass cards and instructions delivered to our room the night before.

 

We had the ship to ourselves until around 11:15. We would have had around 2 hours but some of the late night party folks wouldn't get off the ship and they had to go find them :confused: .

Could you please tell me what the entertainment was on your cruise? ? Less than two months and counting for my next Majesty cruise!

Thanks for the information, we're looking forward to this cruise, we were originally booked on a 5-day on the Enchantment in a JS and with air fare from the Midwest being what it is we decided to switch to a b2b on the Majesty for less $$ and we still get our 2 C&A credits.

There were a coiple of production shows by the Royal Caribbean singers and dancers that were fairly good. One featured Motown and the other was based on groups such as Abba and the 70s and 80s). One evening was a magician/ comedian and I'm sorry...don't remember his name.

 

David Orien (sp) is a comedian that has opened for Jerry Seinfeld and also won Star Search...he was outstanding. Maybe put on the best show we have seen on our cruises. At least that night he was :D .

We're on her too in 2 weeks sledhead, there's a roll call Majesty OTS 2-18-08 where just me, Annsplans, Litehouse9, and Pugsley have touched base. Annsplans and I are going to wear the tri-strand (gold, green, and purple) mardi gras beads to find each other. Come on over and join us, we're trying to decide when and where to meet pre-sailaway. Did you also know we're going to be onboard during the total lunar eclipse Feb 20th?

They may have brought their own snorkels and masks. That's what we did, and it cost $15 each to rent just fins and vests.

 

Thanks for all the other posts, they've been so helpful!!

 

My girlfriend and I are going on a Majesty Cruise on the 22nd of Feb. If we bring our own snorkel/mask/fins do we still have to rent a vest for $15? Can we bring our own life vests?

[lovelights]

Our very first cruise was on Majesty and we just tried Navigator of the Seas. We figured bigger ship, more things to do, better food, etc. etc. Boy were we mistaken. BIGGER is NOT necessarily better. Majesty blows Navigator out of the water when it comes to service, food, etc.

 

We went on Navigator that left Fort Lauderdale on Jan. 28th, and it was the cruise from hell. I've been sick since the 4th day on the ship, and if I'm not feeling better tomorrow, I'm going to the doctor's to find out what the heck I picked up while on this cruise. This cruise started off on a bad foot within 24 hours after we got on board.

Is it better to do the Royal Caribbean excursion or go on the Stuarts Cove Snorkel? We'll be on "Madge" on 4/18/08.:o
