Great thread.......anyone else have any input?

As always, looking forward to reading about your next adventure with your dad. Wishing you both a happy birthday and a wonderful time. And I love the wrapping paper! My dad turned 88 last month. He was supposed to go with us on our extended family cruise this June to Bermuda but pulled out at final payment much to the disappointment of his grandchildren.

Hmmm.....we are in club balcony suites in June 2025, but I think I will look into these new cabins. Thank you for reporting on your switch!

Add us to the early bird list! Even if we are not in the Haven, we get to the port super early and like to be onboard as soon as possible. This allows us to take care of updated reservations, book the Platinum events, book the entertainment that is available and then have a nice lunch. This then allows us to spend the rest of the full afternoon in the Vibe as a great start to our vacation. Sitting in the waiting room for an hour or two or three does not bother us as we all have books and tablets. For us, it is part of the excitement.

Thank you very much. We have never eaten at Ocean Blue before, but the young adults in our family want to give it a try. The men and young adult men would rather not bring or wear pants.

Thank you but we will be docked in Bermuda. We agree, it is on the chilly side while the ship is moving but do enjoy eating outside while docked.

I know that pants are required for men at Ocean Blue, but are they required if you are sitting outside?

@luckybeckyThank you very much for taking the time to post this report on what sounds like an amazing adventure. I appreciate your how you are writing up your daily summary with a nice amount of added pictures. I will definitely go back and read your other trip reports.

Wow, what beautiful shots from the webcam. Thank you for posting.

Really looking forward to reading about your new adventure. Your posts are always very informative and I enjoy reading them. Have a wonderful cruise!

For some reason, I really enjoy the carafe of water. I pour it in my yeti that I use for water so the ice does not melt.

Thank you for posting your Vibe experience so far for your Alaskan cruise. We have passes for our June 2025 Encore cruise and with three see days (one being Glacier Bay), I would be very happy to have one really nice day weather wise. Regardless of the weather, I am sure our group will be spending a good amount of time there including sail a way. Enjoy the rest of your cruise!

That is what I would do also if I just wanted the Vibe pass and not the cabana. However, I would definitely check every day. What sailing are you on in February?

Since they started preselling the Vibe passes in the summer of 2022, I have always been able to secure the passes very far out of final payment.

We also happily took the free water!
