  1. because there are federal and union regulations on flight time. The analogy simply does not work.
  2. I said basically the same to her when I asked what she was doing. She said she was pretty good of zoning out and focusing on the editing. I got to watch her for a fair amount of time and she was good at it.
  3. Well, if true, sort of makes sense, it might be, but not being current on OS updates has a pretty large exposure as well. Neither position is a good one.
  4. Estimates, you can keep positing these non specific numbers but you and I both know that it will be defined when they actually do the specs for the ships. Until that time it is fluff.
  5. Havana bar area during daytime hours (when not used) would be a great spot
  6. Our last trip on Horizon I saw more than several working in different areas. The most interesting was an editor reviewing books. She did it every evening (I am sure more in other places) for about 3 hours at Alchemy.
  7. I have not been on the Sunrise in some time. I can say that pickle ball courts on other ships are novelties. They set up a temporary court an pit volunteers for small matched for about an hour.
  8. If one thing is perfectly clear, it DEF is not a simple fix.
  9. All from a windows update deployed. The hackers out there are watching with keen interest.
  10. Because the price was right. It happens all the time. By your logo, you seem to be a Princess fan, have thy sold older ships?
  11. Did they give a number? no. Until they publish what it is (the actual number), it is nothing except marketing spiel. You can label it however you want, That is my estimate, wait guess.... oh, we do not know until they tell us. I will move on now.
  12. Nine years is almost a lifetime in cruise ships terms. Lots can happen, 6 years ago, who would have thought that Costa and P&O ships would be sailing under the Carnival flag? One thing is perfectly clear, Carnival Corporation puts CCL at the top of their priorities.
  13. I read it. I have no doubt they were not lying. My point was until they say what that number is, then it is all guessing.
  14. I am not doubting it is more, the question is how much more. Until we know, we are just guessing.
  15. Certainly way more than anybody else. On a related but semi different view, I read today Southwest was unaffected because THE OS is so outdated, meaning they have def problems with protection of customer data.
  16. Totally unacceptable, especially from the king of the hill. I read the same on a airline group on FB.
  17. I would tend to agree that it tends to go to PC, Miami, Galveston (OK and Long Beach) and take on the tried and true (what you call boring ports). Partly, as was mentioned, because that s where the money is and partly because. well, the is what they always did. I expect with 5 new ships you may see something more,,,,out of the ordinary. As example, one might go down under (probably not what you wanted, but that is WAY different). I would be ecstatic that it freed up other ships for things totally out side of the comfort box, bordering on exotic (at least for Carnival). Another might be a new ship (or two) dedicated to shorter cruises (used to be used for the old maids before being sent to Turkey for scrap). We will see.
