We get the PUP emails, each to our own email address and have since the inception of PUPs. (I hope I didn't just jinx us.) However the past two PUP opportunities my DH received to an email address he's never used with X instead of the email he uses to sign into his account and has received all of the previous emails to for the past 2+ years. Head scratch, but happy he's still getting them.

No shorts for men for dinner anywhere except buffet and room service.

My best results have been very early morning or late evening.

We like the 240 WIFI minutes instead of only 90.

-For the record, we did our December trip in early December. (7th-21st),. There were no kids but the cruise after they were expecting 250 children.

We stayed in 2105 and didn't hear any noise from above. We loved the location near the pool and loved the large balcony. It would be a cabin I'd book again in a heartbeat if it were available. It was below the carpeted section of the OVC near the entrance.

We cruised from Ft. Lauderdale to Valparaiso, Chile in early December and the weather was glorious every day. I can't speak to weather in March since we've never done it.

We book packages all the time. We go to one of the specialty restaurants immediately upon boarding and haven't had a problem booking what we wanted yet.

We cruised recently and sent an email about our concerns to LLP. We received a call from her office in response. The rep listened politely and thanked us for our imput. Frankly it seemed somewhat condescending but at least we were heard. I'd not rely on sending our feedback only through Cruise Critic to get our message where it needs to go.

Check the sticky on S-class ships. Many rooms are noted and you can tell if you find a room near yours by alternating. Also the rooms with the triangle have the bed near the bath.

Try this one on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/EINSKEY-Waterproof-Outdoor-Protection-Fishing/dp/B01J1GQ1HY/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=I0QV0E9VHZSL&keywords=mens+sun+hat&qid=1677965201&sprefix=mens+sun+hat%2Caps%2C76&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzRVU1UE9VNkVEWjFQJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNzAyNzQxMTRLWDNNVFE3Q0NWWCZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUExMDE5MjY4MlMwRkFXT1U5OE5HOCZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=

YW. It was.😜

If you scroll down to the very bottom of the page below the credit card ad you will see Quick Links. Below that you'll see Points History. If you click there your sailings should all appear. Mine did.

We did Go Green on our last sailing and honestly say no difference between it and the regular service. We weren't limited in any way with towels. We didn't specify a time for the cleaning, however we had the most amazing steward we've ever had on any of our cruises who seemed to magically know as soon as we left our cabin that we were gone and cleaned our room before we returned.

Yes

None of the refundable OBC will show in your account until you're on the ship. Any OBC issued from X will show on the website.

My point earlier was take precautions that are right for you and live your life. Be respectful of others and if you have symptoms, test and take appropriate actions to protect yourself and others and live your life. It can happen anywhere, not just on a cruise ship. We were on a March 2020 sailing (the last to leave Ft. Lauderdale before the shut down) and several sailings post re-start and were fine. I got it at home and have no clue where. It can happen.

DH and I have had our shots and all 3 boosters. We've masked and been super careful and managed to avoid covid. We've cruised without issue since the start-up multiple times without issues. I somehow got covid. I only found out because I took a routine test because I had a slightly congested nose and no other symptoms. I quarantined. I was lucky. DH tested multiple times and never got it. I had no known exposure. My point is is that you can get it anywhere. Be careful and stay safe...and enjoy your life.

You can ignore it and go when you like In our AQ sailings we've only received a suggested time for first night.

Blu doesn't take reservations (unless perhaps an exception for a large group).

There are shower heads on the wall on S-class ships in addition to the overhead one. Sorry, I no longer use the spa for treatments since I got tired of their non-stop sales pitches and I don't do fitness classes.

@HMR74 are right about the price of AQ going through the roof. Pre-Covid the difference in fare between verandah and AQ was often less than $500 pp for the entire cruise. In the past year it more often upwards of $1000pp. Also in the past year they have increased the cost of specialty restaurants at least 20% and added an 18% gratuity on top of that.

Check your credit card online. Ours showed a charge from X 2 days before we saw anything from X. In fact we noticed that the cabin number on our reservation changed and never received an email notification from X that our bid was accepted.
