  1. Like you I wasn't sure, but chose port for the sunlight and glad we did. Balcony had an overhang above that made it perfect.
  2. Good to know that the grass may not be so green, thanks.
  3. To be fair, I saw a spot on YouTube that shows the attraction; it is much different from my idea of a ropes course and more innovative and thrill-inducing. The ship itself doesn't interest me, anyway.
  4. Just my $.02, anyone who travels will eventually have an emergency alarm, you calmly follow the instructions, and stand by until the all-clear, then it's over. I'm fine with not knowing the reason as it doesn't change anything.
  5. I hope this doesn't happen. I can see having a fee perhaps so kids don't all swarm that particular area all the time, but make it say $20, and make sure the design is worth paying for.
  6. Is that $89 for a one-time entrance, or a one-day pass, or to use it for the whole cruise?
  7. Am I seeing that on some sailings, the kids are well-behaved, and on others, they are decidedly not well-behaved?
  8. Thank you, that answers my question, I did not realize it would need so much and cost so much.
  9. Can anyone tell me why Royal couldn't do a complete overhaul and refit of their older ships? Make them over into "Project Discovery" ships?
  10. x2 Have a list and bring copies, as someone in the food service industry I can tell you this helps greatly.
  11. Best thing I have read today. I am envious of where you are, I have only made one crossing myself, there is nothing that compares to the feeling.
  12. If it's back, it will be interesting to hear reviews. I'm always skeptical when I see crab claws because it they have ever been frozen, they are dreadful. At my workplace, we serve a seafood tower, it's a very high-profit item but occasionally there will be a supply issue.
  13. Love the '70's party and hope they keep it, but they could change it up some, so much very good dance music that deserves to be featured, not just Village People.
  14. Glad you had a good time. Love MN. People who really know how to have fun without being vulgar. Thongs are gross and should not be worn in public. It's frightening to think of what's next!
  15. Nearly everything has a dark side. And I am not disagreeing or arguing. Now this is getting interesting. The tipping culture is just one small example of unfair factors everywhere you go. Why are medical sales people usually very attractive? Why do women prefer tall men?
  16. Worked around the glitches....using the app, thrill waterpark $43.99, but to get Voom I signed onto the website with my phone for the $17.99. Finally a real sale! 🙄
  17. Well well well, the cruise planner checkout page is frozen, and I called and the phone rep says he can't even get into the system. He said "don't worry, they're working on it. I apologize for any inconvenience." I'm not holding my breath to actually get the Coco Cay thrill pass for $43.99. Grrrrr. Is anyone surprised? 🤣
  18. One full Icon class ship brings in more money than all the Vision class combined, I bet. You can see how it's better for the company's bottom line to operate fewer ships.
  19. It's a bit awkward and uncomfortable for me when they do that spiel so part-way through the cruise I told my cabin attendant and waiters "listen, don't worry, I'm giving you a 10 on the survey so you don't have to ask me." I do tip them as I go. I imagine someone will disapprove of this practice but I don't care. 🙂
  20. Thank you very much for your observations. Last year's Jewel T/A was perfect for me...sailing half-full won't happen again but you confirm my fears about crowds on a big ship. I am so envious though you got to have the authentic cultural experience with locals making paella.
  21. Quick comment that's relevant, some people get enjoyment from giving tips. That's the main thing for me, doing a small good deed. Whether others tip extra or not, I don't care.
