  1. When-I-booked-NCL-as-a-solo-for-this-November-I-could-only-book-a-Club-Suite. Then-my-TA-sent-their-upgrade-bid-request. Every-category-of-the-real-suites-were-available-but-they-wanted-a-bid-for-2-passengers. That-was-more-than-I-wanted-to-pay!
  2. Looks-like-such-a-fun-cruise! Loved-Navigator-too. Enjoy-and-safe-travels. I-am-here-in-Florida-waiting-the-arrival-of-TS-Debby!
  3. Am-I-reading-this-wrong-or-should-you-have-already-set-sail-as-it-is-8:42PM-East-Coast-time?
  4. I-just-sailed-solo-on-Enchantment-of-the-Seas-in-a-Grand-Suite. No-issues-at-all! Had-a-wonderful-stateroom! Planning-a-solo-NCL-on-Jewel-for-Thanksgiving. Any-information-on-their-solo-practices-would-be-appreciated!
  5. I-use-Cruisemapper.com-to-see-what-ships-are-in-any-given-port. https://www.cruisemapper.com/ports/baltimore-port-33?month=2025-03#schedule Based-on-their-one-ship-only-limitation-you-are-the-only-ship-in-port-on-your-sail-date. Enjoy-the-port-it-is-user-friendly!
  6. 😭 I-cannot-stop-crying-over-this-devastation. The-destruction-on-this-beautiful-island-provides-a-wake-up-call-for-all-who-do-not-think-we-need-to-quickly-address-climate-change. My-heart-goes-out-to-all-affected-and-those-still-in-Beryl's-path.
  7. I-am-just-off-Enchantment-June22nd. They-are-in-Cozumel-today-and-scheduled-for-Belize-tomorrow. They-were-then-scheduled-for-Costa-Maya-and-Roatan-no-Progresso.I-am-not-sure-what-ships-would-be-going-there. After-Belize,-I-would-be-surprised-if-Enchantment-stayed-anywhere-around-the-Yucatan. On-our-sailing-although-TS-Alberto-was-way-north-we-met-up-with-wild-weather. Missed-Costa-Maya-as-winds-were-higher-than-25-miles. For-two-nights-the-ship-rocked-side-to-side-and-forward-and-aft. My-dresser-drawers-banged-open-and-shut-along-with-the-closet-doors. I-was-on-deck-8-but-my-balcony-was-drenched-in-sea-water-from-the-high-waves. We-sailed-through-squalls-with-torrential-rain-and-high-winds. I-hope-all-in-the-path-of-Beryl-come-though-in-good-condition.
  8. Just off Enchantment today. Yes, they were there to take your boarding pic. They also had several nights for more formal or informal pics. Photographers were visible for sure. The usual photo gallery was there for pax to choose their photos. So, you can choose to join in or not-but on this ship-they continue with onboard photos.
  9. They do have a printed Kid's Menu in Luminae if you ask. Also a Veterinarian Menu. JIM-By-chance did-you mean vegetarian?
  10. We-had-a-similar-experience-with-jewelry-at-this-port.Purchased-good-silver-earrings.The-seller-took-the-earrings-in-the-back-of-the-kiosk-and-returned-them-wrapped-up. Did-not-open-this-package-until-the-cruise-ended-only-to-find-a-cheap-pair-of-metal-earrings-were-substituted. I-think-one-lesson-I-learned-is-to-see-the-items-I-purchased-not-wrapped. Too-much-opportunity-for-replacing-valuable-items-if-they-are-wrapped. Cannot-think-of-any-reason-to-wrap-items-away-from-the-buyers. There-is-little-chance-of-a-return-or-dispute-in-my-situation.
  11. C-legs-have-you-been-to-Nachi-in-2024?-If-so-any-current-experiences-to-share? IMO-the-post-you-focused-on-with-mention-of-a-snake-etc.-is-not-reflective-of-the-overall-CC-posts-on-this-resort. When-you-say-"it-will-be-very-different"-are-you-referring-to-7-ships-in-Cozumel? I-am-not-clear-on-what-would-be-very-different. That-number-of-ships-is-typical-and-they-handle-the-pax-volume-very-well!
  12. Charla-I-do-not-think-your-kind-offer-of-sailing-with-me-is-creepy! You-have-many-dedicated-followers(including-me)-reading-your-posts-on-solo-cruises,cruises-with-DH-Jeremy-and-let-us-not-forget-the-memorable-threads-sailing-with-Gen-Z(adorable-young-lady). After-all-of-these-reads,-I-feel-like-I-know-you. You-do-not-know-me-however-which-makes-your-offer-the-more-special. This-will-be-a-tough-time-for-me-in-the-coming-days. I-will-not-rain-on-your-wonderful-thread-but-I-thank-you-for-your-kindness. Enjoy-every-minute-with-those-you-love. Diane
  13. I-lost-my-husband-one-year-ago-2/13/23. We-loved-cruising-and-racked-+34-cruises-from-2004-2022. I-have-stayed-away-from-the-boards-as-the-joy-I-knew-cruising-was-too-hard-to-revisit. Thank-you-Charla-as-you-are-an-inspiration-for-me-to-possibly-cruise-solo. I-honor-your-strength, kindness-and-ability-to-share!
  14. Thanks-all-for-your-information! Helpful-for-an-MSC-newbie.
  15. What-do-solo-cruisers-pay-on-MSC? Single-or-double-rates?
  16. We-went-to-Costa-Maya-in-2004-on-Explorer-of-the-Seas.This-was-our-first-cruise-with-MANY-to-follow. I-remember-a-tour-by-bus-to-likely-someone's-house-on-the-beach.It-was-at-the-opposite-end-from-Mahajual.Also-remember-fondly-sitting-in-beachchairs-in-the-shallow-water-at-theCats-Meow.I-still-have-their-T-shirt-and-photos.Owner-was-from-Canada.She-would-carry-a-beautiful-black-cat-around-with-her. The-strip-was-nothing-like-it-is-now.Most-places-were-right-on-the-water-and-very-low-key.Not-crowded-but-food-was-inexpensive-and-tasty. The-whole-area-wasdevastated-by-Hurricane-Dean.The-Canadian-owner-returned-to-her-country.We-were-there-post-Dean-and-it-was-hard-to-believe.Hardly-a-tree-left-standing;just-sticks-in-the-ground. We-were-just-there-again-late-2023.Have-done-that-Western-Caribbean-itinerary-about15+-times!
  17. So-what-are-the-newer-information-sources?Facebook?
  18. DH-and-I-have-been-to-the-Western-Caribbean-ports-more-than-18-times-since-2004-(first-cruise)-so-I-have-no-interest-in-a-particular-location. To-clarify-I-am-not "disappointed"-in-the-content-of-posts. My-point-was-to-encourage-more-than-a-few-to-post. When-you-consider-the-volume-of-those-sailing-to-W.Caribbean-how-can-others-be-enouraged-to-post? Why-d-others-not post? When-I-read-these-boards-despite-many-trips-to-the-area-I-see-replies-from-a-few-and-I-am-not-posting. I-do-not-see-this-on-other-ports-to-the-degree-it-is-seen-here. Just-my-opinion!
  19. It-is-disappointing-to-constantly-read-replies-from-the-same-posters-on-several-of-these-threads! No-current-information-is-provided,along-with-reporting-on-older-experiences. I-do-do-reply-on-these-boards-that-are-constantly-covered-by-the-same-cc-posters. Hoping-with-all-the-volume-of-cruisers-through-these-ports-we-can-benefit-from-more-recent/current-information. These-are-exciting-ports!! Let's-hear-from-CC-recent-western-Caribbean-cruisers!
  20. I am new to your live reviews, but it seems many on CC are very happy for your Live! Love the pictures you posted. What beautiful scenery. Have a wonderful cruise.
