    On our recent 7-night Celebration they would not allow us to order bottles of liquor from room service either. We have in the past. Only wine and sodas.

    We ordered a 12 pack (came as two six packs) thru RS on the Celebration last week. It was $11+ some change and tip.

    We have used Cortrans. Very happy with them.

    As technoge said, you only select your check in time. You do not select a boarding time. Check in time is when you can enter the terminal. Boarding time is when you will be allowed to board the ship, that is determined by the cruiseline and ship. Two different things often confused here on CC.

    Spending that for three balconies is far different than spending it on a single cabin.

    Some of your thoughts are probably valid, however, crew contracts end at all different time periods, not all at once, even going into drydock. There is still work for them to do on the ships.

    We've never spent $5600 (Hank's quote of $400 per person) on a 7 day cruise and never will. I do not find any value in that at all. I can enjoy my cruise just as much as the big spenders do, and that means value to me.

    Possibly the laws of the countries they would be visiting.?

    Wouldn't matter if the whole USA made it legal. "While certain CBD products used for medicinal purposes may be legal in the US, they are not legal in all the ports we visit and therefore are also considered prohibited items."

    Not for nothing, but we prefer Fishlips. To each their own.

    We've seen flying fish on every Caribbean cruise no matter what the itinerary. I don't think they migrate. Never seen the flash though.

    Just an aside, my grandfather was born in Malmo.

    U would stay at one of the hotels just outside the airport. Most have shuttles from the airport to the hotel. There are plenty of places to dine near those hotels. Hang out by the hotel pool Saturday and relax from that long flight then get one of the shuttles to the cruise port. We like Cortans shuttle. www.cortrans-shuttle.com

    Coffee in the Lido buffet is free.😁

    Oh well, guess I won't be talking to John. Not that it matters much anyway.

    I don't FB and it sounds like there's no other real way to ask him anything directly if he doesn't want emails. I don't want some middle person (such as Mary or Michelle) deciding if my question or comment is acceptable.

    If we're wondering around at a port stop, we eat ashore. Don't want to waste our time going back to the ship then leaving it again plus, eating ashore helps support the locals.

    Not sure how anyone would not know they will have gratuities unless they fail to read and understand their booking, or they don't pay attention when speaking with their agent.
  19. Pyrate13
    Grats are actually optional, you can pay or have them removed. So, it seems like they would need to make them a requirement with no removal allowed. Many would be up in arms over that.

    As far as I understand, if the category is sold out, you cannot get the price drop. snowballs posted as I was typing.😁

    I would not just guess if it was cancelled. I would want the straight answer directly from Alamo. Sure would suck to guess and then find out it wasn't, then have to pay for it plus any other reservation you might make.

    My insurance has changed every billing for years now, as my phone does depending on calls made. Dates on these has changed at times as well. I've never had my final payment date for a cruise change ever, with over 20 cruises. Oh well, as with the above poster, we just agree to disagree, or not, doesn't matter to me.
  23. Pyrate13
    I take most reviews with a grain of salt and don't just accept them at face value. As has been said, many only post to complain but there's plenty of folks that also had a great time but just don't write about it.
  24. Pyrate13
    I guess we will have to agree to disagree.

    Again, apples to oranges. When I delivered papers, i went to the house to collect each week. A cruise is a completely different situation.
