  1. Yeah, I don't want to be on a cruise with any large group, I don't care who they are.
  2. There are at least 4 posts and dozens of replies. Someone made a booboo!
  3. I just had the same experience. How bizarre. 🙂
  4. That's the message I got on my phone, from the app, about 45 minutes ago. I am not on a cruise. I got a text from a friend that her son got one - he hasn't been on a cruise for over a year. I hope they aren't waiting for us. 🤪
  5. Just out of curiosity, who was the group? And yes, having two venues closed the entire trip would indeed be disappointing.
  6. We had a lot of the Indian dishes were available on Jewel in Scandinavia last fall. Not spicy hot enough, of course, but quite tasty.
  7. Latest time is usually 9:30, 9:45. They want the ship empty by 10, and boarding sometimes starts at 10:30 or 11.
  8. So long as people KNOW that your card will be in there, full disclosure, there should be no issue.
  9. We were on Jewel earlier this month, right after the holiday break, and there were so few kids that we could practically count them. We never saw anyone in the arcade. But the previous week we were told there were 800+ kids. If it's an itinerary you like, take it.
  10. We got off on the 14th. They said that the new menus would be 'soon, maybe not next week'. So they might be making the changeover now.
  11. Just got off last week. It's an old ship, but still a nice cruise. Great crew. We did MTD which was hectic, but they did their best. Cruise director (Cruisin' Susan?) was great. Don't miss the Parade of Nations on the last sea day, 64 countries represented in the crew and they had a lot of fun with it.
  12. Our Jewel cruise last week there were a dozen or more that I notice who wore masks. No one seemed to be bothering them about it. There were also a few crew members who chose to be masked. You do what makes you feel comfortable.
  13. Jewel last week was Caribbean tails, small, but as many as you wanted. Our waiter automatically brought two for each of us.
  14. Oh my gosh, I forgot about the skeet shooting. The FIL learned to loft his golf shot high, to catch the wind, instead of going for distance on his drive. He won all the time. 🙂
  15. I would love to have a new Sovereign! It was our first cruise in 1993.
  16. In the video that I have seen, it is firmly upside down and steady. Did it right itself later?
  17. You can bring a hub that will hold USBs or more plugs, but it cannot have a surge protector.
  18. I have the menu for the 1/6 sailing. It is the old one.
  19. It is - but she got it fixed, it went viral, she made the news, and got a call from DC from the main office.
  20. A friend had a military move from one post to another. Their household belongings didn't arrive, and the contract mover kept prevaricating. Their airtags located the boxes and they were able to get delivery.
  21. Having an airtag saved our bacon last spring. We were getting the cruise line's shuttle to the airport, and on the bus we noticed that our suitcase was still at the hotel. Disaster averted.
