I am, at this writing, on Apex. I am Sapphire as well. Both my wife and I received the classic package and internet. 
 

We received an email confirming this about 3 months in advance   See below. 
 

I also received my $500 in casino play promptly and the casino staff were very friendly and welcoming 

Blue Chip has delivered in my opinion

Thanks ,I thought there would be.

I always bring a sportcoat on 7 night cruises but may pass for a 4 nighter

But you look great in the sportcoat

 Vesper 

We disembarked from Apex on 4.23….started feeling bad with difficulty breathing back in Austin on 4.24…believed it to be oak pollen…got worse and last night tested positive for COVID-19….see Doc this afternoon hope to be back at full speed soon

We’re just off Apex.  Wonderful trip.  Wondering what covid numbers are like- by yesterday there were a LOT of Retreat employees either sick or in quarantine.  Made for interesting Luminae experience last night and this morning!

Positive tests

crew. 62

passengers. 19

Trying to board Apex this morning 4.16.2022

Our flight out of Austin was canceled 

Found a flight to Tampa 

All of our luggage was lost

Drove from Tampa to FLL arriving at 4:30 AM

Try to sleep before shopping for clothing at the nearby Shell gas station 

What a trip 

Trying to talk the wife out of the “I’m with Stupid” T-shirt 

Thanks for the review and the pictures…so many pictures 

Much appreciated

We don’t spend enough time in the room for it to have a major effect on our vacation enjoyment anyhow. 

Our 54 cruises have been spent “Out and About”.  So like you cabins only enhance our cruises not make or break them. 
 

Looking forward to the Apex on Saturday 

Thanks answering all the questions… much appreciated 

We board the Apex on Saturday 

Truth in advertising…..lots of pictures 

Thanks

Thanks for the wonderful review 

Thanks for your review 

Board next Saturday….keep the posts coming 

Thanks for the livish or lavish review 

Booked for 6.26.2021

Can't wait

Now I have agreed as a compromise to cruise, solo, only four times once retired, probably in the first 2 years, and then hang up the deck shoes.  Thoughts or suggestions on this plan are appreciated as I am probably not the first in such a mixed marriage. 

I believe that is grounds for annulment.

I'm no expert on immunology but I can't wait for my vaccination on Thursday!

I also feel very fortunate.

There is not

You must be kidding me....are they encouraging the hanging of swimsuits just anywhere?

It is sad

St. Martin

We used our first 35 cruises window shopping for a place in the Caribbean to vacation.

We have spent a week or two in St. Martin each year since 2010.

We will apparently miss this year but can't wait to return.

TINA is all I have to say

I have sold this stock several times over the last month..still taking cash out

RCL continues to move up 

Airline stocks up as well

We bought RCL more than 20 years ago purely for the onboard credits.   We have been paid back for the stock we purchased several times.   We will hold it as it certainly is not one we are counting on for income.   Let our heir deal with it when we are gone. 

Your heir will receive a stepped up basis making dealing with gains easier.
