I concocted a week-long photo Scavenger Hunt and split the group into 3 teams (by cabin). The List contained items to find on board as well as some to find in port, plus chances for extra credit.
I would love to see what you included on your scavenger hunt list! Sounds like a fun activity

Anyone ever used this company before or have any info?
It looks like they are providing quotes that would be a private car for a cheap rate but I'd love some feedback before booking

When do the movies switch? If my cruise starts in one month (Nov 29) and ends in another (Dec 6), will they only play the movies from the list of the month the cruise started (November) or a mix of both?

The Flying chairs are the same as a ski lift. The chairs don't stop so people can board. Rather it just slightly slows down and the people get scooped up just as with a ski lift. Getting off again it just slows down and people have to jump off and than quickly have to to side same as ski lift.. Really not safe for someone with a mobility disability that cannot walk unassisted.
Fast forward to the 9:34 sec mark of this video to see boarding and unboarding. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CT4YBIC-F3s
Thanks for the link to the video. It certainly helps with making a decision. It looks like most chairs had 1-2 people, any idea how many it can hold? We have a large family so I am thinking of making a grandma sandwich so she will have someone on each side to hold on to in order to make sure she is able to stand quickly and exit without tripping and being hurt plus a fourth person to hold belongings and walker.

How accessible are the flying chairs at Mahogany Bay? Is it possible for someone who usually uses a wheeled walker (but can walk with my assistance) to ride on the flying chair? Would we be permitted to hold the walker folded up? I realize that you can always use the walking path instead, but I think my grandmother would enjoy the views from the ride.

Has anyone sailed with Capt Shaun (7 Seas Charters) on the Volare before? When I tried to book with Nativeway they were full and recommended this company instead.
Thanks!

How long do you spend at the Tampa aquarium? We have a flight at 14:40 after our cruise and really not looking forward to sitting around in the airport for extended period of time since we have long layovers after this flight. We were wondering if we had time to get off the ship, visit the aquarium, and get transportation and checked in on time for our flight back to Canada.

I really enjoy Ruth Chris steakhouse.

We have a balcony cabin that has a pull-out couch and a bed that can be made into a double/queen size or pulled apart into 2 singles. We do not wish to share beds. Would it be better to have the beds made into 2 singles and leave the couch as a couch for sitting on and more room to move around or is it more comfortable to sleep one on the couch and one on the big bed?

Can't be that obvious if I don't see anything on two tries.
I've found "Waldo" easier than that.
Edited: Sorry if my previous message was too revealing, but I was inclined to believe that since this was not fixed that the person who emailed was not specific enough for mitsugirly to find and fix on her own.

I recently called my travel agent and paid for an upgrade from an inside to a low priced balcony. I decided to come online and research the room 1002 when imagine to my surprise what an amazing steal I have found. I can't wait to try my first balcony and to surprise my mom when she finds out we upgraded!

Was there any murder mystery lunch/dinner theatre? If so, do you remember which day or prices? I see conflicting information on whether this is still offered.
-
I have never been on a submarine before and was wondering if there is any pressure adjustments that affect your ears (kinda like on an airplane). I have had some ear surgeries in the past that make normal "ear popping" very painful and don't want to spend my days on vacation in pain.
-
Thank you for telling us when you are leaving, otherwise I would just sit watching my computer and keep pressing "refresh" over and over! What a great start to an amazing review. I can't wait to see more.
-
Does this still exist? If so how do you book it? I don't see it on my dining or entertainment options for booking, but then again, not all dining options are bookable online and I have 0 options for entertainment at 87 days to go.
I will be on the Norwegian Sun for the western Caribbean itinerary for Feb 1 if that helps and I would like to purchase this for my mother's birthday before Nov 14... am I out of luck?
-
What times were the entertainment/activities? Not sure what time to book my dinners because it seems you aren't able to book entertainment for the Sun.
Also, was any "mystery lunch" offered on the sea days?

I ask them to punch a hole in my keycard so I can wear it on my wrist keychain.
Is it possible to get your keycard punched at the casino? I would love to get this done AND avoid the lines and mayham of guest services.

It turns out that Maya Chan has renovated and all people receive either a private palapa for groups or pergola for 2 with full shade. They just haven't updated their website. Thanks for all the advice!
-
What do you request at guest services (especially the first day)? I've heard of asking for tours of the ship or asking to eat with the ship's officers. What are other insider things that I might be missing out on?
-
I understand that both of these are complimentary/included main dining rooms. What is the differences between the two? Is one more formal than the other? Is there differences in the choices on the menus? How do you chose which one to eat at on a nightly basis?
-
Does anyone who has been to Maya Chan have any experience with the differences between having the group palapas versus just 2 people sharing an umbrella? It looks like the singles/couples only get a flimsy umbrella where as the groups have a whole area with bed, loungers, hammocks, etc and it is the same price (or cheaper). Do the groups get more attention such as quicker and more attentive service and first choice with the floating loungers?
Is it worth trying to meet up with a group through rollcall or can you get a nice shady place with access to a hammock and nap place without having a palapa?
Horse riding Ushuaia
in South America

Has anyone done the horseback riding in Ushuaia?
I'm just wondering the wisdom/safety of doing it pre-Antarctic cruise as although I am quite comfortable with horses and know the basics, I would be completely devastated if something should happen (like fall and break an arm) that might prevent me from continuing on my cruise but I also want to enjoy my time in Ushuaia and the scenery looks stunning so I'm not sure this is something that I should miss out on either.
