Everyone with Fly2fun is having that problem. They can check in at the pier. There will be no priority boarding.

Suz&Sean pretty well nailed it. Get your RAT test before you leave. My insurance pays for 4 tests per month but that might be going away. On my iPhone, swiping up on the picture shows the date and time. People who are already on the ship have said that they haven’t even really been checking for the picture. For NCL they also wanted a picture of the batch number.

For safety’s sake, I would take the test and take a picture with your phone camera )it will capture the date and time. The original email said to take a picture with your passport. Carnival has different information between Carnival.com.au and the US version. And the programming on the websites has been pretty terrible.

Typically airlines will allow instruments that will fit in the bin although it will count as a carry on. We kind of cheated by calling them personal items since we had a carry on. But yes, we are bringing our ukuleles. We are joining Bribie Jammin on Wednesday afternoon. That’s our great fun - joining local ukulele groups when we travel.

I would either check with shore excursion Group or download Shipmate, which uses the shore excursion group to book excursions. Plugging in the dates on the shore excursion group website seems to produce inaccurate results. It calls it a 20 day cruise arriving May 3. Shipmate calls it a 22 day cruise. logically, we are sleeping through most of the time change. To give a brief example, we will be getting an extra hour of sleep and resetting back on the ship as opposed to “traveling to the future”. (Making up dates and times) Ships time vs “real time” 20th 8:00 pm vs 21st midnight in Brisbane in 4 hours we’ll call it the 20th again and keep sleeping away the difference. This is obviously a simplified explanation, but I know we are arriving in Seattle on the fourth so shore excursion group has something messed up.

West Port area is a fun area. It’s exciting to hear that Kansas City is finding a way to connect these highlight areas of the city. Hopefully we will meet on board! We are pretty easy to find because my husband usually rides a little travelscoot.

Where do you live in Kansas City? My wife used to live there in the north land about 30 years ago. We lived in mid Missouri most of the time and recently moved to St. Louis about a year and a half ago.

We will be doing a B2B with the Great Barrier Reef on this ship immediately before this cruise. We'll be doing an NCL from Sydney to Auckland beginning March 4, then flying to Brisbane to stay with friends we met on a Baltic cruise and travel the Gold Coast in the meantime.
