  1. If I want to make an iced coffee at the buffet, does anyone know how easily I can obtain non-dairy milk of some sort? I’m not fussy about which, just don’t want the lactose.
  2. Mine took 3 days or less. Might have been the following day but based on the email, I didn’t look right away.
  3. This press release is the first time I’ve seen a limit of 2 on juices/smoothies. Bad enough they’re 5 ounces. Now I see I’m entitled to no more than 2 for free.
  4. I don’t picture them tracking stock transactions to see if you’re cheating. Assuming my name was John Smith, there would be a major hassle every time someone with the same common name sold shares. I’m hanging on to mine for now. It was purchased at a reasonably low cost and I expect to cruise on CCL brands again in the future. But I’m pretty sure I could dump it right now and not lose my OBC for a March sailing.
  5. I recommend using the downdetector app to see whether others are having difficulties as well.
  6. Service Temporarily Unavailable Is all I ever see.
  7. The man obviously took his MDR dress code advice from Joe Cocker’s interpretation of the Randy Newman song* * obscure reference of the day.
  8. We are on the Mar 2 sailing and this is probably the best information you have passed on. I mean, it’s all been valuable, but I sure hope she hasn’t run out of the blood orange syrup before I get there.
  9. So, if it gets quiet after 10 PM, check to see if the life boats are still attached.
  10. It looks incomplete. I don’t see any bourbon. And Princess says they stock Woodford Reserve, among others.
  11. It sounds like he is both Itchy and Scratchy.
  12. We are on the Caribbean next month. So far I can spot 2 possible formal nights out of 10, but not much else. 28 days out. I wonder if we will see tropical 🌴. I have loads of appropriate shirts.
  13. They need to promote who ever is in charge and move them to the IT department.
  14. Thanks. I found it. It took less than 3 business days to appear.
  15. I bought 100 shares of CCL and emailed paperwork to Carnival. I got an automatic acknowledgment back. I know it could take several weeks to receive my OBC. The app and website being a little hard to negotiate, somewhat less than intuitive, can someone tell me how to see any OBC on my account? My OCD brain tells me to check daily until it appears (somewhere).
  16. I’ll try them all before judging. But they’re a smidge over 5 ounces. If you want to fortify one at a nearby bar, you’ll need a taller glass.
  17. Can you post a link? I can’t find the announcement.
  18. Not for me. I insure minimum trip cost. I just want to be covered in case I get very ill or injured and need hospitalization and/or evacuation. If I lose all or part of the cruise fare, oh well.
  19. The combo package is 60 X 2 X 7= $840. Gratuities are $224. That leaves $616 for stuff you apparently don’t want. Ridiculously, the package with drinks alone is priced higher than the combo.
  20. I am willing to accept that challenge.
  21. I can remember a drink of the day on Royal Caribbean. I don’t think Norwegian had one. Princess does not. I used to get a coupon book from RCCL with a free drink of the day, which for some reason usually turned out to be a strawberry daiquiri.
  22. A reasonably intelligent purchaser assigns value based on personal use and experience. I don’t think most people would be convinced that a motor vehicle offered for sale at $100,000 was a bargain just because the sticker said $150,000 when comparable vehicles sell for $50,000.. $76 for a drink package is a bargain compared to other lines. But it fails when compared to a $60 package that includes more than drinks. The irony is that both are offered by the same line. No matter what Princess tells the consumer, a drink package is worth how many drinks I purchase at the per drink prices. Two beers a day at $8 each is still only worth $16. And ten fancy drinks at $15 each is worth a whopping $150. I assume most people can still do basic math.
  23. I think the $76.69 referenced is the drinks only package? Which doesn’t make sense compared to the Plus package which offers much more at a lower price. I wonder how long they will continue to offer it.
  24. You are correct. The new price limits have not yet taken effect. But given that Princess has been selling Premier and Plus with higher limits for cruises sailing after 2/20 for a while now, it would have been nice to see that mentioned. I have bookmarked the page for future reference.
