Yes, Serenade is still in dock.  It looks like her next cruise is on the West Coast on 4/26, so not sure when she is scheduled off the dock.  Unless there is someone local to PC who can see if there is equipment staged near Escape to indicate whether repairs are underway.

Do you have any insight on why another week has been cancelled? At this point I'm wondering if they even plan to sail out of PC at all.

well they cancelled the 26th 😞

chengkp75 do we have any updates on these repairs??

any updates on when the escape will attempt to leave the port again?

I know the motto is "you get what you get so don't throw a fit" but my flight reservation is carrraaazzzyyyyy and it of course is too late to cancel the airline package.  Looks like I'm out the $250 and will have to just book other flight accommodations. 

Has this happened to any one else? What did you do?

THANKS EVERYONE!!!

Does anyone have copies of any 2021 NCL JOY freestyle daily's?  I'd like to have an idea of what I'll have available to do during the week.

I will be in 18100 on the Joy in January 2022.  I've been reading all these comments and am still on the fence about tipping the butler.  I was thinking maybe I give some money every day?  Thoughts?

I’ll be in the Haven Jan 15. I was also thinking maybe I tip day 1 and day 6? 
 

what kind of things can you ask your butler to do?

Its possible that the Florida government will tell them otherwise.

I was told the same thing for a March 2020 sailing. 

Question/Senerio. I’ll be traveling with a total 4 groups of 2 who will all receive the $50 per port credit. Can we combine all of our $50 credits to cover the cost of an excursion that accommodates 8 people??? Specifically a cabana at Great Stirrup?

How long was the taxi ride there? I am torn between Orient and Mullet.

I’m having the same delema. I’ll be there the second week of April and want to be able to relax with an umbrella and a chair and access to food and beverages. However, I don’t want a big crowd surrounding us.

Puerto Rico is in the US so US dollars are okay. Some of the walking tours are still a go.

The same thing happened to me. I had to refresh the page a couple times. Also try using a different browser.

Mine held up great. I've worn crochets on multiple cruises and never had any issues. I only washed it on beach days or the very few times I got into the pool. If my hair didn't get wet at the beach or in the pool, I just sprayed it with my water/conditioner mixture when I got out of bed.

 

As for drying, I would absorb some of the moisture by towel drying then allow it to air dry.

Sorry for so many questions and thank you for taking the time to answer them for me ❤️❤️

Following. I’m interested in what anyone thinks about Mullet Beach as well.

Ok ... so it appears synthetic hair will hold up as long as you keep it washed and conditioned. Did you let your crochet air dry afterwards? I’m assuming there is no other way to get it dry ( is a blow dryer a no? )

Well maybe I will do that bc the human hair bundles are $50 each...If you didnt have an issues I imagine Ill be good with synthetic too. Were you able to wash the synthetic crochet often during your vacation?

I've looked into crochet braids using human hair. I feel like it may hold up better than synthetic. I plan to be in the water a lot...so I'm worried about how the synthetic hair will hold up.

Love the ones with the metal fastener !

Oh that sounds fun. Were you able to find anything?

If you were arriving in Orlando earlier I would say stay in Orlando, rent a car, and drive yourself to port. We found a deal on a rental that we are picking up on International Drive and dropping off at Port Canaveral. However, you're sailing out the next day so it may be wise to stay at a hotel near the port (maybe Cocoa Beach) and shuttle over in the morning.
