@cruisinghawg From my searching I think this will be the guy, Capt Rumen Yovchev

@bennybear Thanks for sharing the photos.

@cruisinghawg Do you know which captain comes on while Capt Merrick is off 4 months?

We are frequent Holland America cruisers and used to their smoking area Lido deck aft where it's a covered area by Sea view bar with tables & chairs and a cushioned chair area (and ashtrays of course). We are hoping to find something similar on our family cruise on the Radiance. What will we find for smoking area options on the Radiance? TIA

Could it be prep for lighting and staging for Blues Cruise? https://bluescruise.com/39-oct-2023-mexican-riviera/?fbclid=IwAR0QP68gn-FJCzE2yUSmfnJTcsJ11eQlVK9QAnKb9vTSVxeEq1FrQ0eW95U

@HaveWeMetYet I appreciate your recommendation. I cancelled the 4 separate accounts and purchased one account with 4 devices and saved $102. The other benefits of key don't hold value for us so we decided against it. Thanks again.

Were there any upgrades done on the September drydock?

😂 I just found my answer when I clicked through to key purchase. It must be purchased by each guest 6 and over assigned in stateroom. I'll just keep the internet package. It's not worth it to me to purchase.

I am new to royal. We have family cruise March 2024. If I get the key for all 4 adults but not 10 year old (she doesn't need the internet), will she still get the dedicated seating with us at the shows/priority tender etc? Or will I have to buy one for her also? I bought voom for 4 adults at $17.99. Our cruise had key for $18.99. I didn't know what key was but sound like internet and extras for a dollar more...good deal

Residents of Key West voted a referendum to limit the size of cruise ships based on passenger capacity thus restrict the number of people coming ashore each day from cruise ships. Rotterdam maximum capacity of passengers and crew stated as 4173. That probably exceeds their capacity.

@POA1 April Fool joke to you by HAL.😉

Unfortunately, looks like tickets now required for Pantheon. https://www.pantheonroma.com/home/

@richstowe Agree, it was a different cruise ship world smoking wise. To me the worst was my very first HAL cruise in 1985 and smoking was permitted in the MDR. That was annoying as hell.😒

IMHO top five sites not to miss in Rome: Pantheon Colosseum St Peter's Basilica Trevi Fountain The Sistine Chapel

Looking forward to following your adventures.

@fstuff1 The shuttle was a nice air-conditioned Mercedes van that we took from Ft. Lauderdale to Miami. The rate was $15 each. Jiffy Jeff# (305)588-6143
