It can happen any time up until you check in for your cruise!  Usually, it's earlier and they'll send an email.

 They appear to be exactly $.01 cent less expensive than the Princess bands purchased on board. 

 

For a penny it seems to me the better choice would be to have one that is specifically designed for the OM device. 

 

Am I missing something?

The Amazon offer is for 3 bands, not one.

A 4x4 sheet [cut holes in it for drainage] is good.  The turf should cover most of the inside of the box [you don't want it to move around, because if your dog likes to circle a lot it will move and spook your dog.]  The filler can be purchased at Lowe's [it's wood shavings in a block] perfect filler to practice on.  It's all I use now on my patio.  I wish the ships would use it.

Roz, just curious, is this 4 feet x 4 feet?  I'm following a SD (Woodford) on FB.  They're on a Carnival ship and he can only fit his back end in the box, from the pictures.  It just seems awfully small (or maybe I'm just not seeing the whole thing?).

Where are they listed (or what are they called I should ask) on Amazon?   I can't find any that look anything like the picture above

 

They're called FitBit Zip.  Here's an example:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072F4MB97/?coliid=I2RI9QN88ME8O0&colid=HT01B6ADV5HJ&psc=0&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

Thank you all.  I originally had booked a Ramada and was told on here that was a bad idea.  We've often stayed at Hampton Inns, I was just going to try something else.  After a bad experience with a 3rd party booking, I always book direct now. I appreciate your help.  By the time I fly most of the day, a McDonalds burger will probably be fine!

Have you looked at the reviews and googled for places to eat.😃

Yes, I'd like to hear opinions from people I "know" here.  Is that okay?

Ft. Lauderdale Hampton Airport/Cruise port SW12th Ave (SR84)

Any information about this hotel would be appreciated, especially the closest places to eat (walking with a cane).

Thanks!

Thanks Roz!  I'm glad to know that.  I don't expect to pet the dog, but I didn't know I should ignore him/her.  Will do that in the future until given permission to talk to the dog ☺️.

I saw on a FB post, someone with a Service Dog whose dog had a vest that said to ignore him.  Is this something I should do?  I usually say to the owner, "what a sweet dog" and smile at the dog, maybe say hi.  Is this considered rude?  

Thanks

Thank you!  I looked all over the Princess site and couldn't find that info. Do you have a link? 

Never mind, I finally found it!

Thanks anyway :) 

Thank you!  I looked all over the Princess site and couldn't find that info. Do you have a link? 

I admit I didn't read this whole thread!  I don't sail until next April.  Do you have to wait until closer to sailing to use Ocean Ready for the medallion?

Thanks!

Thanks!  I'll check Trip Advisor for some other ideas.

Have you stayed here recently?  Reviews seem to be all over the place!  We'll just be staying one night pre-cruise. Thanks for your opinions.

We have FTTF so will have priority debarkation after the diamonds/plats and suites have been called, but my husband will be using a walker and will not be able to use the stairs. Does anyone have any experience with this since we won’t be able to use the stairs?  This will be the first time for the walker so never had to worry about it on our previous cruises.

If you aren't in a hurry I'd definitely ask for a wheelchair disembark.  I've used it once and it made a huge difference.

Did anyone see CCI on the Today show? The trainer, now graduate coordinator Lauren, trained Wexler.

Thank you for posting this!  

I'm glad to hear you don't have to make reservations.  To me that kind of defeats the purpose.  I don't mind waiting for a table like I would at a restaurant at home.  Do they give you a pager so you can go to the bar while you wait?

We were in a Cove Balcony under the galley-ONCE.  It's noisy all day and night.  Sounds like someone dropped a barrel of ball bearings over us!  Any other Cove Balconies should be fine.

I'm having trouble saving cruises.  I click save (the little heart) then next time I go to the website they're gone.  Is anyone able to save cruises and how?  Thanks. 

Don't put the luggage tags on until after your flight.  Too many chances of them being torn off or removed.

I fold them, punch a hole in the top and use a strong twist tie to put on my luggage handle. 

Do they have a special place for disabled cruisers?

Wonderful pictures!  I'm glad y'all had a good time.

Ah hah!  Thank you!  I was wiping out my cookie when I ran a cleaning program. Moved Cunard.com to "keep" and all's well.

Thanks so much!

I just wanted to save a couple of cruises to go back to, not book them.  I clicked "save", but they weren't there when I went back the next day.  This would be my first Cunard cruise.

Since I haven't booked anything and don't have a booking number, I guess I can't get in to save.

Thanks for your help.
