  1. My best meal is always lunch on embarkation day, since it means the cruise has just started.
  2. Simplify your life, be like Jack Reacher have no middle name.
  3. We are sapphires, will never sail Star, did 29 days on Sun, that was enough. We prefer the Jewel class ships, Sky was well managed and entertaining to Quebec and back. Not sure why anyone would be surprised that they had a bad cruise with Star, it is famous for them.
  4. Sounds like you did not try the onboard Sechuan restaurant.
  5. Spoke to someone who claimed they saw the new Cats, said no one walked out at intermission. Now I know why.
  6. When we got on Sky on September 1, 2023 for our cruise to Quebec out of Baltimore, the boarding was as soon as you checked in. The Sky had sailed deadhead from Miami to set up this cruise. In addition the cabins were available immediately, got to drop off our carryons and got our seapasses at 11 AM. Our check in time was listed as noon, but with only 1,600 on the cruise it was the easiest embarkation I ever experienced Good idea to check your ship's previous cruise.
  7. Been to Canada many times on both coasts, never came up. Perhaps it is because the conviction was 40 years ago.
  8. What if they could not get a visa and the cruise ends in Brazil?
  9. Exactly, we were told because of pirates in 2018 on the Mariner voyage. No pirates fired anything at commercial shipping as is the case these days.
  10. Has anyone heard if there will be changes to the itinerary in April when cruising from Dubai through the Red Sea and the Suez Canal? Will they not allow anyone on the upper decks from sunset to sunrise while heading into the Red Sea?
  11. Lucky for me DUI is not a felony in Pennsylvania.
  12. The t-shirts are always on sail, whenever the ship is moving, but sometimes they go on sale. Happy New Year!!!!
  13. Brazil is not worth the extra work required and price.
  14. We enjoyed doing b2b from Baltimore to Quebec and back last September on Sky. The biggest problems were lousy wifi and a hurricane which caused missing 3 ports on the way back. Halifax is worth two stops as is Sidney. These cruises are offered again this year, total of 20 days sailing. We did not depart until 8 PM on the turn around day, so we had a lot of time in Quebec, loved the old city.
  15. The only other thing of note is they must be at two different restaurants.
  16. Would still hear that it is more expensive than it used to be.
  17. Why would you make a heaven deposit? Where would you transfer to?
  18. We gonna be doin a 3 day in March to get the 3 points we need for diamond status. Hope you can check out the Sechuan restaurant on board and give us a scouting report, it is one of the things that makes Spectrum different than Anthem.
  19. Get ready for more of the same, happens with other cruise lines also.
