I don't weigh in on here very often anymore.... but I am going to add my 2 cents. At this point in time, I believe it is up to the individual to protect themselves and not rely on the "perceived" health status of others. By perceived I mean that although everyone is tested before boarding, we all know that people are catching covid after they test and then boarding with it, or they have covid but haven't yet tested positive (this happened to my daughter and she finally tested positive on day 5). So what I mean is, it is up to the individual to protect themselves, and wear a mask. I have zero issues wearing a mask in an indoor crowded space and will do that on my b2b in November. I am relying on myself to stay safe onboard.

After 40 cruises with Royal, I sailed Norwegian in June. There is merit to trying to another line.....I had a great time and would sail them again, however I found myself making comparisons at every turn. At then end of the day, I have low expectations of food quality on any cruise - even the specialty restaurants can be hit or miss. I am on a b2b in November on Explorer and despite some negative reviews lately, I am going in with an open mind knowing things are not the same since Covid. I hope your next cruise is much better!

Being from Canada I have Nexus which is pre-approved entry into the US. It also gives me TSA pre when I am returning to Canada from a US airport. Having this had made airport travel SO much easier!

She's beautiful! Thank you!!

This is perfect, and a group I am happy to have found and now become part of. Thanks for the warm welcome 😀 I see a lot of names I remember fondly!

I actually had a cruise booked on Oasis for the week before, but I canceled to add a week to my Explorer cruise in November. Now I may be tempted to book Oasis again lol 😀 I was on on the last Oasis sailing before the world closed - although I do enjoy Oasis class, it is not my favorite - I love Freedom class best. Sounds like a group cruise would be a lot of fun!

It is a great city for sure! You've been here 8 times? Where do you usually stay?

Bon! How are you? Thanks for the welcome. I miss doing my LIVE reviews too! I have a b2b booked on EX in November, so I may just have to post live on that one.......of course I will need Ocean Boy to tell me where I am at all times, so if he is agreeable....😉 I will definitely be checking in here regularly. It is good to be back! Hope you are doing well.

Thank you! Judging from the few pages I have already read, I am happy to be here 😀 I see quite a few names I recognize!

Ha ha I think you may be right! That's ok, I'm not shy to just jump right in.

I just found this thread! How could I have missed it all this time? Love the banter 😀 Now I have to figure out how I will possibly read over 2600 pages to catch up? Feel free to give me the coles notes version on what gets discussed here.

She never did find out the meaning - but she did get a balcony stateroom.

How many drinks per day for D+ on the sea pass?

Does anyone know what category PRV is? My daughter has a reservation that just went from GTY to PRV for her upcoming cruise on the Wish - she is on the media cruise next week. Thanks!

I pulled the trigger and upgraded to the Plus package for my cruise on Getaway June 27th. I decided that I don't want to think about what I can and cannot have. I want water, Starbucks, Veuve and The Botanical Gin and the upgraded wines at dinner. For me I have done the math and know it will make sense.

Ask your cabin attendant when you board - that is the quickest way

I booked a club balcony suite for my upcoming Getaway cruise and read that the beds in that category have memory foam mattresses - can someone confirm or deny?

Can anyone tell me if the bed is by the door or the balcony for Club Balcony Suite 13184 on the Getaway? First time on NCL 🙂
