Thank you all a lot to consider, we are flying Southwest second flight out direct. I am going to change it to day before. I know if I don't I will be wondering and yes driving is an option. Only if I really have too.

Will be in Atlanta for our Feb 18th cruise out of Tampa, would you risk flying in non stop 6:30am flight? I know Atlanta could a dusting of snow, just not sure if it has ever effected the airport.

Do you recall who you used for transportation?

Thank you.

We are sailing out of Tampa, return 2/23/22. Do you think we can make an 11:30am flight, carrying off our luggage? Do they have standing taxi's, or uber drivers waiting for rides?

Check Beyondships.com

Thank you, I wasn't sure if that would work for a phone. Not the best with a computer. Thank you again.

Do you download anything before hand or just log into Rapid site? Sorry for questions we have not started back cruising again and I'm still nervous about getting it right.

Do they ask if you want to use your phone or laptop, or ipad.

And the grammar police are now on CC.....

Plain and simply: it's your vacation enjoy and don't sweat the little things like if shorts will offend someone. If your comfortable and your DH is comfortable enjoy your dinner, breakfast or lunch which ever you choose to eat in the MDR. Remember you paid for this vacation.

Consider renting a car near the port.

We had never had a problem ordering two drinks, it comes up that both ppl in the cabin have the package so the bartenders we have had never had a problem with it. Commonsense prevailed!!!

Fav, bread pudding with vanilla sauce, least anything spicy.

I always get two bottles has never been a problem.

We only eat at the windjammer Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. Always enjoy Cafe's and pizza for snacks. Not to mention other lines here but we enjoy BBQ and Deli (I think you know to whom I speak.)😉

Just like Ptroxx, pre-covid we never had our room serviced. We would ask for fresh towels when needed. I make our bed, and kept the room neat. Not really necessary for us to have someone cleaning up behind us. And yes we still paid with extra tip. Not their fault I don't need someone cleaning constantly. Just need fresh towels. But I have not cruised sensed they started back. Will start again 2023. I plan on doing the same thing.

Absolutely, well said!!

Brillohead you are correct, you just implied I do not like resolving my issues. But I'm the one with the reading issues....and the rant was just that letting off steam, I apologize for those that had to read it. And you for clicking onto it, doing so by your on free will. I do know one thing in writing and reading. I know how to admit when I'm wrong, and write it so others can read it. Thank you, I am happy I resolved the issue.

Brillohead I beg to differ, if you read correctly you would have noticed I said I resolved the issue. I may not enjoy hanging on a phone for an issue that RCC caused but be clear I resolve every issue that directly effects my bookings. And as I stated in 20years we have never had an issue like this. And as I stated if your happy with your TA that's great no judgement, but because I choice not too use a TA, with, "significant bookings" I would appreciate the same judge free zone.

I'm happy your TA is does a great job for you. Thank you for clearing up the term. Ta's aren't for everyone, enjoy your world cruise.

John and la la I'm not sure what you mean by "keep control" of our booking? That may be a term I'm not aware off for cruising. But to me, OP it sounds like I was in the wrong for catching a $400 swing in RCC favor, that should never had happened and hours on the phone being completed irritated. I do not use a TA because we enjoy all the leg work of looking, and cruising for 20 years we have never had this issue, and when it comes to my money I will fight for every penny that is due us. RCC was completely at fault and needed to be held accountable, which I did for us. A TA would never be able to convey my discuss and frustration that RCC caused, I prefer to fight my own battles. A TA may be able to reach someone on the phone faster, But I can wait and advocate for myself.

This is whats happening, Changed a cruise paid the $100pp (not a problem). Paid $300 at time of change for deposit increase.(new deposit $500, no problem). Had a balance of $1,500, deposit brings it too $1,200. I have two receipts reflecting new balances...Now the BS starts. Go online to make a payment, online reservation balance is $1,600.....I make a call gentleman fixes and I ask for a new "Cruise vacation receipt". Back to $1,200. That was 4/22. I go online today payment back too $1,600. Another phone call, BS,BS,BS I'm hearing and they are telling me my new balance is $1,400.......Seriously ,how they heck did you decide that will be what I owe.... Now I'm on old for a supervisor, anyone want to take bets no one will pick up the hold!!!!! Any thoughts or ideas that will help with this?

We are looking at Deck 11, but wondering if deck 12 spacious ocean view can look directly on to deck 11 balcony cabins? It looks like the windows are tilted outward, so can they look down on the balcony's of deck 11. TY.
