I searched and could not find useful answers here. If I use the app while onboard is it gonna chew up my very few at sea internet minutes? I have a 10 day approaching with 150 internet minutes. If I peruse the dailies on the app, whooops- would you like to buy more minutes sir?

It would be nice to sip a nice bottle of port at the end of the night on the balcony. Technically, port is fortified wine. I wonder if they will not let me bring a bottle on? Any port lovers bring a bottle?

Aye, all 4 of my grandparents were Irish immigrants. The gift of gab and a strong liver works well on NCL!

Artemis just updated: NASA has requested backup launch opportunities for Wednesday, November 16, at 1:04 a.m. and Saturday, November 19, at 1:45 a.m., which are both two-hour launch windows. A launch on November 14 would result in a mission duration of about 25-and-a-half days with a splashdown in the Pacific Ocean Friday, December 9. The Saturday early morning Artemis could give the 11/18 Getaway folks (me included) a double header launch with the Friday 5:30 Falcon for sail away and then the nightcap Artemis blastoff at sea!

AFC East tightening up, thanks J-E-T-S. I was flipping back and forth between Fins/Bears and Bills/Jets wondering if JL made it home to see the game in time... Are you a member of the Bills Mafia? I saw them take over the Elbow Room in Ft. Lauderdale when the Bills visited earlier this year. They are definitely the team to beat.

Where I come from the Booty Special would be misinterpreted.

The only way to sail away is with a real blast! Praying for no delays or postpones due to weather. If it stays on schedule there will be alot of launch watchers in the area, extra congestion near the port.

Who cares about the internet? They have stadium PICKLEBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally. Pointy heads. Have. Listened.

I never forget my small plastic baggie(s). Why? Because I fill them with cheerios from the buffet or room servie and then feed the wild donkeys on the islands. They love cheerios. Cheerio!

Was the food good?

Streaming my be a lesson in frustration with lags and buffering. NFL games are played on all tvs (including your cabin) with 3 on Sun, Mon and Thur nights and Sat late in the regular season. If you are in O'Sheehans you'll see about a minute pause and everyone is on pins and needles until the game finally shows up and a loud cheer is made! You'll still have access to some ESPN and sportscenter for highlights. Also, Thanksgiving games are shown too. I've noticed that Steelers and Packers seem to travel very well in their team colors on gamedays. We usually sail out of FL and there will be some Fins, Bucs and Jag fans around too. We once sailed on Celebrity Reflexion over thanksgiving and they set the theater up with big screen and a special bar rolled in to show all 3 games- there was only about 20 people interested and we had a blast!

I miss my kitty and we haven't even left yet. And I will be going to see Cat Daddies on Fri.

What a bunch of Maloney! We're sailing 10 days out of Port Canaveral for Thanksgiving. Who wants to buy my drinks?

Don't wear your Bills hat around Miami.

Here's one for you: Let's say I bring one of those insulated, stainless steel travel mugs. Will the Haven bartender make me a drink like a margarita or vodka/tonic in it? Or is it ok to just dump his glass drink into my mug? Is it kosher to fill up the mug and then take back to the cabin, say one for the road? How about unopened beers? I would guess gratuity will go a long way here...

For those of you who received the FCC how long did it take until you were notified? I started the 7 day period 9 days ago and have yet to hear anything.

Secrets of the Haven- pssst, hey guess what? You do not have to write your butler a letter if you want some M&M's.

Seems almost every cruise the capn tells us about his "wessel". Sounds Norwegian to me.

I made the call today. A significant price drop north of $2K. 2 options: complimentary upgrade cabin OR 7 day review escalation for FCC used within 1 year. Not exactly clear on whether we have to book or sail within one year to get the future discount. We'll see in 7 days. Incidentally, we'd be boarding gold and departing platinum and have never sought a credit in the past. GL to us!

Thanks for the NFL post. I went on a cruise out of PC on the Epic a few years ago and the 4:00 game had the Steelers on a sea day. I was in O'Sheehans and when the first game ended suddenly at least 100 Pitt fans showed up in full jersey attire. They rocked the place! The Steelers really travel well!
