Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Based on the replies I think it best we avoid the Comedy Club. We cruise quite a bit, but it's been a long time since we tried it. As best I recall, I think last time we did leave. It's not a matter of being offended, it just sometimes reaches the point that challenges our personal moral values. I totally support the right of anyone to choose this for entertainment as long as it's not being crammed down my throat. (What could the comedian do with that comment? 🙂 ) See, I'm not a total prude. Thanks everyone for the feedback.
  2. My wife and I aren't prudes, but constant cussing just gets to us. They used to tone it way down for the early show. Wondering if that has changed?
  3. Thank you all. Unfortunately we are not D+ so only one free internet day for each of us. Some good points though, so I am going to try going without buying it this trip. I just read that onboard messaging is now free so that will help a bit. Also, I have T-mobile so I get limited cell service when in ports.
  4. We are Diamond and are booked on Harmony April 21, 2024. I have always bought just the basic Surf internet plan for 2 devices, no streaming. I have also always waited to get it onboard because for Diamond it seemed to be less that way. Now when I look online I see only Surf & Stream offered. I have no interest in streaming while on a cruise, I just want email available. The price is $250 which is ridiculous. Am I missing anything?
  5. We cruised on both Oasis and Allure long ago and I'm quite one of them did not have a Hibachi Grill in Izumi at that time. They were both new ships at the time so upgrades likely occurred. I need to dig into my old records to refresh my memory.
  6. Another update: We are booked on Harmony April 21, 2024. I now know there is a Teppanyaki Grill. 🙂
  7. We arrive 2 days before our April 21, 2024 cruise on Harmony and will be leaving 2 days after disembarking. I was planning on using one-way rental cars, but none of the agencies are open in Galveston on Sundays so I can't drop off or pick up when disembarking. Also, they close at Noon on Saturdays. 🙄 Now I'm looking at shuttles or Uber. 40 miles is quite a haul for an Uber. Has anyone done it that way? What did it cost? I called https://galvestonlimo.com/airport-shuttle/ They said they will drop us at our hotel in Galveston. Can anyone offer thoughts on how that would work out? Price seems very reasonable. Thanks all.
  8. We're looking at a cruise out of Galveston on Harmony. We've been on Oasis and Allure several times, one had Teppanyaki the other didn't. I don't remember which. Also, how does Harmony compare to its older siblings? Pretty much the same? Thanks for feedback that will help us decide.
  9. A month ago we sailed on the Apex and loved everything about that beautiful ship. One thing that surprised us was the lack of requirement, or even encouragement, for guests entering the Oceanview Cafe Buffet to use the handwash station. When my wife, and I, were properly washing our hands we repeatedly observed people walking right by the wash station, and even the sanitizer dispenser. I estimate that 9 out of 10 did not wash, or sanitize. We ate breakfast there every morning and several dinners. This occurred every time. There were attendants at both entrances who never once said a word as people walked by. On our last cruise on the RCCL Quantum in May that would not have happened. We are sharing the same utensils in the buffet, washing is the best way to minimize the transmission of unwanted pathogens.
  10. The second one says "FROM $219" . It would seem even when they say "From" there should be an option available for that price. $219 was the only option offered.
  11. It showed $119 on Celebrity's Website for a 7-Day Thermal Suite Pass, while logged onto my account. See attachments. When selected it suddenly became $219 per person. I would have spent $238 for my wife and myself, just for the experience, but not $476. Not worth that much for us. We may use it once or twice. I have read of others spending $199 for a couple, which is what got me looking. Our cruise is Apex Dec 10, 2022. Thanks for any thoughts on this.
