  1. Thanks so much, GTJ, for the detailed information on Busses #4 and #7. We will not use #4 as it does not return to cruise terminal area early enough for our departure. No. 7 sounds doable, but then so does the silver line and changing to red/orange lines. There is only 2 of us. We can also do Uber, but I'm not so good with my cell phone and ordering one. I'll try to practice a little! LOL.
  2. We are seniors and are interested in information on how to get from Black Falcon Cruise Terminal to Quincy Market area of Downtown Boston. I understand there is SL2 which takes you to South Station where you can transfer to Red Line to Park Street, but we would rather take one bus without transferring and ending up more in the area of Quincy Market. Can anyone provide information on either of these bus lines? Thanks in advance.
  3. Maybe it is different for the Canada/New England cruises, which ours is, also a 10 day cruise. Thanks for your answer. Our itinerary definitely shows a 7 pm departure. I guess I need to wait until the longer cruises start up.
  4. What time did you actually sail? We are sailing in September, and our itinerary shows 19:00 or a 7:00 pm departure. We are not arriving until the morning of. I know, risky, but we are on a VERY early non-stop flight from Tampa to LGA. Hoping they adhere to that 7 p.m. departure. If so, we should be fine. We plan to take a taxi to the Brooklyn Cruise Port, and it's a Sunday, so traffic should be minimal. Thanks for any info.
  5. We are on the Seaside for the 5/28 7-day sailing and I sure hope all the deficiencies are corrected by then and it doesn't impact our trip. I noted that those who are on the Seaside right now seem to be having a wonderful time with no issues. I'm pretty sure all problems will be addressed ASAP and we will be able to sail as planned.
  6. I've read every word of your "live" from your first week on Mera. We are going on the 9/24 sailing out of Brooklyn, so I am eagerly awaiting all of your posts from this week. The embarkation looked like a huge crowd and we are in our 80's, so not looking forward to that. Maybe requesting a wheelchair for my 85 year old self will make it easier. Thanks so much for doing this live again. Your writing style is very easy to read.
  7. We are in Newport late September on MSC Meraviglia, arriving at 7 a.m. and departing 4 p.m. Is Newport a tender port or is the ship docked? We are elderly and cannot do long walks, so we are interested in Trolley #67 and also DH would enjoy the auto museum. How far is the Transport Center where we catch Bus 67 from the ship terminal or tender area? Thanks for any advice.
  8. Hi Sid. I thoroughly enjoyed your "live" review of the Celebration, and I'm really looking forward to this one on the Prima, as well. We are going to be sailing out on Carnival's Mardi Gras on 2/4 also, so I guess I'll have to wait until we return 2/11 to catch up.
  9. We are on the Mardi Gras 2/4. I've done some research but can't find which venues are complimentary for lunch and which have extra charges. The same for breakfast. Regarding the MDR menus, if there is an *by an item (such as the salmon and flat iron steak) is there an extra charge and, if so, how much? If someone can answer this, I would be very appreciative. Thank you.
  10. We're doing this same cruise next September but on MSC. We will stop in Newport, and I have so enjoyed your description and pictures. I plan to read the Vanderbilt book also. Thanks also for the Fire Truck Tour info in Portland. Keep it coming!!
  11. Thank you. Drydock where? I was hoping to book the TA coming back this way or Westbound and can't find it either.
  12. I've looked for info but can't find anything. Freedom is doing a TA 9/21/23 from Pt. Canavaral to Barcelona, but I can't find where she goes next. I believe she's back in Florida in November 2023, but what about from 9/21 on. Anybody know anything??
  13. DH and I have had this problem many times on cruises. The staff running Karaoke don't even know what you're talking about when you mention changing key. DH has shown them how to do it and most, (not all) are willing to try to accommodate you.
