Sterling30D Posted September 9, 2008 #1 Share Posted September 9, 2008 We're going to be sailing this weekend out of San Juan, PR and I was hoping some of you could give me some tips about this particular cruise. I've heard rumors like it is illegal to wear shorts in down town Barbados. Any truth to that? Any info on this Ship or the Itenerary would be greatly appreciated. If anyone could point me to a review that a Member has written on this cruise that would be appreciated as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissMelis Posted September 9, 2008 #4 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Thank you very much! Now if someone could recommend a good hotel in San Juan I would be set. We plan to stay a few days after the cruise to enjoy PR. My husband and I are sailing AOS on 9/14 also...check out the Meet & Mingle below, a lot of people are staying either a few days before or after sailing in PR: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=684673 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillychick Posted September 9, 2008 #5 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I just returned from the AOS on Sunday - any questions just ask & hopefully I'll be able to answer them!!! Barbara from Philly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sterling30D Posted September 10, 2008 Author #6 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Does anyone know if AOS has AT&T cell phone coverage at sea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXMary Posted September 10, 2008 #7 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Just got back from the AOS on Sunday also and will be happy to answer any questions that I can. We have AT&T and had cell service throughout the whole cruise. Absolutely no truth whatsoever to no shorts in Barbados! In Barbados, St Lucia, and Antigua the Compass did say that camouflage or military-type clothing is offensive and you could be fined for wearing it. Maybe that is where the rumor started. You will definitely want to wear shorts in Barbados- it's hot! :) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone could point me to a review that a Member has written on this cruise that would be appreciated as well. LOL, that rumor is funny! No truth to it! Probably, as noted above, it is a corruption of the law against camouflage in St. Lucia and Antigua. That law came about because thugs were impersonating the military and robbing tourists.
