Thanks for the replies! I followed back up with the tour company, I stated that all we have is the handicap parking plackard and they said that would be fine? We shall see! Thanks again!

Hi! We live in the US, traveling to Italy, and have been asked by tour company for this "disability certificate"? When I told her I was unfamiliar with this she responded "the majority of our customers are US and there has never been an issue with them providing?" Can anyone clarify what is being used?  My son suffered a stroke several years ago and has difficulty walking distance and incline. Thank you!

We've had good luck with Avis in the Embassy Suites downtown.

Thank you! Do they have shuttle from port?

Has anyone used Alamo downtown? I'm looking to pick-up downtown and return to TPA the following day. Any recommendations or advice? Thanks!

I need educating, please! I've received good booking rates thru Next Cruise but I have received $1000 casino credit offer. Which is best way to book? Any advice is greatly appreciated!

The casino gives free drinks in the casino to players who gamble at a certain level (earn a specific number of points or who are designated by Club Royale in advance) who are actively gambling in the casino.

Yes. I should have clarified....This is the program I was inquiring about. I was just unsure if the Bar area is included or are the free drinks limited to servers on the casino floor.

Do you receive free drinks at the casino bar? or is it only when playing? I've had servers provide free drinks but I was unsure about the Bar?

My favorite overnight is Comfort Suites Fort Lauderdale Airport & Cruise Port, Dania, FL. The rooms are large and comfy! There is a train that runs next door but we barely noticed. The BEST part, we can walk next door to Dockers to eat!

Hi all! We booked 11 day Southern Caribbean (April 2019) with Next Cruise last summer. We paid for OV cabin. I have a CR cert for free balcony cruise but would like to use that for future cruise 🙂  Since I have already paid for the Southern can CR offer a discounted cabin upgrade? There are several balcony and JS still available. Any advice for how best to upgrade? MANY THANKS!

Please forgive me if this was previously posted! In speaking with CR rep I was told that husband & I would not receive offer emails IF we share email address. :confused: We use one email for all our travel related mail so, never considered that to be a problem. Oh well, thanks to CR rep, we will just have to separate:'):'):D

When ship's departure is at 5, all aboard is 4:30. Plenty of time to get ready. 😊

True. Thanks MM.

2nd & 6th.

Thanks! I'm surprised! I thought usually on sea day. We have early dining so, it cuts into Nassau day. :(

I have the Verizon unlimited plan and just checked before we left in January and we were covered. I didn't have to any thing other than just checked on the website. We weren't billed any extra for a travel pass or using my phone

Same for my family.

I’m cruising the Western Caribbean at the beginning of November so this has been helpful (had no idea what to pack). I normally cruise in May

Dolls, we normally sail in May also! Thanks to everyone for the great advice!

Just got the email from RC. Back to Key West. So glad.

That's great! We cruise mid-november with a stop in Key West. This is my 11th cruise and finally seeing KW! Hope you have a great cruise and enjoy Key West. Let us know how the recovery in coming!

Hi all! This will be my 11th cruise but my first non-spring/summer cruise! We will travel to Key West, Honduras and Mexico. I'm accustomed to packing summer dresses and shorts. Any wardrobe advice? Many thanks!!

THANK YOU! This map is VERY helpful!!

Hilton Marina. Its 10 minutes to the airport and has shuttle. you can also grab the water taxi right at the Hilton and head to Las Olas Blvd. plenty of shopping, restaurants and people watching. You can ride the taxi all day for like $7. Hotel also has great poolside tiki bar and good onsite restaurants. Bee staying there for years.

 

Thanks TJMK! I like the look of Hilton Marina.

This is our 1st cruise out of Port Everglades. We have a very early flight the day after disembarkation. Can you recommend a hotel with reliable shuttle service? We will not have rental car. Many thanks!

I use this method every time for DH's tux and shirts. Works like a charm.

 

Use an extra-large zip-lock bag and you're done.

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

This is a great video! Thanks for link!

Many, many thanks!!

Please forgive me if this has been discussed.

I am looking for the best way to pack 2 dress shirts and 1 suit. I've researched the packing envelopes...do they work for this?

Any help is much appreciated!
