Itchy&Scratchy

On our upcoming cruise we got an approval 4 weeks before the cruise. Our cruise is now fully sold out. In the past - much closer to the sailing.

we got covid on 2 out of 6 cruises (June 2022 and April 2024).

you could upload on youtube and then post the link to it

what's with the crazy amount of unrelated quotes?

our first time booking with VT, but just in case I looked up some hotels around - and Embassy Suites seems to have rooms available. So, we'll just walk over. Crowne and Comfort suites also have availability at this time.

JamieLogical had a pretty bad experience a couple of weeks ago: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/3004747-jamielogicals-live-from-the-enchanted-princess-54/page/5/

it's the age. Mine was sick all the time from the time he started preschool at 4 and until about 2nd grade. He started cruising when he was 3 and only got sick on a cruise once, and it was our own friends' kid who got him sick (their kid was still sick when they boarded the ship with us). I do make sure to give him his regular vitamins and probiotics every day on the cruise, and take ALL imaginable meds with us as well. He also never sucked on his fingers. Oh, the "funny" thing is - we got covid on a cruise twice already, but our kid didn't.

she is right.

Princess has the same situation with gratuities as NCL... since you asked this same question last year on NCL board: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2965822-daily-service-fees/

did not work for us on our last Princess cruise.

we once ended up in a connecting (guarantee) cabin. Ugh. The other cabin had a toddler who screamed his head of every night for at least an hour.... It was a lot more audible because of the connection between the cabins.

that's if you are not experiencing a medical emergency or are otherwise incapacitated and can't fend for yourself.

if you have more than 2-3 people, it may make sense to take an uber to the port. There were 5 of us staying at the Hampton Inn Suites Blue Lagoon and we took an xl uber (5 of us, 3 suitcases) for $27 plus tip.

if you don't need it, why the 4 device plan? Get one and use interchangeably.

we bought it online and didn't have to deal with anyone "playing dumb"

I would get this and call it a day. That's what we did when DH needed it for his work (although it was before the price hike and cost us a lot less). If neither of you drinks alcohold, than it's a no brainer - $60 pppd for the first 2 people in the cabin isn't worth it. perhaps, she could just use free wifi at ports? or pay $10 per day for ATT or whatever plan you have on port days?

same in the US.

they were excellent on Enchanted. My kid drank his weight's worth of sodas and mocktails every day... His favorites were zero mojito and Key West cooler. The adult version of the Key West cooler is the Ultimate cooler. Also, he discovered that adding mint and lime to a regular coke makes a great tasting mocktail. Zero Miami Vice is great. Some of the venues also have additional mocktails on their menu, aside from the main ones.

my kid watched all of these production shows when he was 11. Nothing was inappropriate, unlike Grease on RCI or one of the musicals on NCL Getaway back in 2018. I disagree. I loved it and I was 48 and not a gamer at all. My 11 yo wasn't impressed just because he doesn't care about singing or dancing all that much, and he didn't care that it was "video game adjacent". I didn't see anyone walk out... Now, tons of people walked out of Cats on Oasis, including us...

people put tape over the sensor to avoid setting it off during the night. Enchanted didn't have that annoying light back in 2022. I am so glad you enjoyed your cruise! We'll be on Enchanted in 3 weeks. 🙂

ugh, it didn't have banana or coconut in it last time. There was a little pineapple in it (which I also don't like but there was very little of it), so it was more like a Midori Sour which I love. The Midori Sour I ordered at the Wakeview bar was simply awful and not anywhere close to what it was supposed to be. After searching the menu I found the closest to it drink being Dunes. It was rather heavenly, and I have been looking forward to having it for almost 2 years now. But if they added coconut and banana to it - then no, thanks.

well, I dunno, I am trying to make reservations, but both Catch and Crown Grill are sold out on most days, and only Sabatini is available.

if the balcony is larger, it will appear so on the deck map:

I mean the screenshots of the MDR menus on the app, not photos of the paper menu in MDR itself. Do you still see them in the app for the past few days? I've just read that the menus only appear on the app for the current day, so that may hinder taking screenshots later. Thank you! That's ok, enjoy your time onboard! It goes by so quickly!

haven't had or heard about any problems. We were there last Nov and will be there in 3 weeks.
