  1. If he has no time to help you, don't you think that's a form of passive aggression? He doesn't sound very nice.
  2. It's happened to us and we've been able to get a cabin switch, if the ship is not sold out. Otherwise, some OBC has been given to us. I've never been unhappy, so I figure we were probably treated well enough. Their job is generally to keep you happy or they will lose your business.
  3. I do a little gamble on these paid upgrades. I don't take the first one, since I generally receive another, much better, offer a week or so later. This depends on how well the ship is selling. Once, I declined all offers and got placed in the upgrade for free. My lucky day! I wouldn't count on it again but it was fun while it lasted.
  4. You are all wonderful. Thank you!
  5. This is so ridiculous . I am way too sensitive.
  6. Ok..I am really sorry if I have been kind of not nice to anyone here. Like yesterday. I am a mushy lovey person really and apologize for being less than loving. You guys are the best. I get saucy and shouldnt.
  7. Our drink card gets hit hard for coffee and water. But, in the late afternoon, we always go to the same bar, Seaview, and so we aren't asked for separate cards. Sometimes, though, it might be good to use separate cards if you drink alot, so one card doesn't go over and you get charged for the over. We don't so it's not an issue. But, I've given this thought. Lol.
  8. Thanks for such a great review. It's really been fun and informative.
  9. Most fish caught at sea by commercial fishermen is flash frozen. They can be at sea for awhile, so this makes sense. We eat a ton of fish and I fail to see where the taste is affected. We also fish, as a matter of course, on our personal vessel, albin, and I don't see a huge difference. Enjoy the fish!
  10. No, I made a mistake here. Your original fare comes into play, not the new one.
  11. Something about sailing past the Statue of Liberty is breathtaking. Not to be missed, as well as view of Ellis Island.
  12. If my hunney bunny was gawking at the boots, and so on, I would say to him to grab his runtail, not walk tail, and move along Pronto! Lol! What a funny thread! Love the goodness!
  13. Football is KING! Hah! We've been onboard for many superbowl events and we always rooted for the wrong team, according to our fellow cruisers. We were in the super minority, to say the least, but we drank beer and had alot of fun and laughed when our team won.
  14. No kidding on the roaming charges! I got nailed one year in Spain for an outrageous amount of money, so therefore, and hence forward, I never use my smartphone onboard. My beloved carries his around, but I dare not. My smart phone worked but it's stupid owner, me, never put it in airplane mode! It's pretty cool how I can survive without the incessently depressing news anyhow.
  15. Ha! The one person in my life who drank martinis was extremely opinionated and kept trying to tell me what a dirty martinis was vs. What! A clean martini. No, I wasn't paying attention because I could have died of boredom right then and there!
  16. Barbados is outstanding. Beautiful beaches!
  17. So positive, thank you. None of the grinding misery of some of the reviews. Hats off!
  18. In the spring, the southern school districts have various weeks off. Your safest bet for cruise with a minimum of kids is during the fall and deep winter, after the holidays. Or, like others have said, the long cruises generally don't attract families.
  19. Yeah, but maybe you don't want to know. Hey, have a wonderful cruise! Just remember, you can sue if it's bad. Looking forward to your balanced report from one of your unbalanced fans!
  20. Poor guy. He didn't plan on all this. You can ask for a fan to drown out the snoring. White noise helps there. I've found with the all you can drink package, 🍸, I never hear a thing. Magic. Lol.
  21. If you said casual to me, I would be in shorts, no makeup, no jewelry, and me being me. It's a Florida thing. Mind if I bring my comfort pet parakeet while we are at it? Haha!
  22. Agree. There is something strange about handling pens, key cards and so on and then reaching for a lime for your drink. Heck, I never shake anyone's hand anymore in church because of the virus. Thanks for that observation.
