I was on liberrty at the pizza place and across was a long long line. I think for a free charm of the day. No way I'm waiting that long for a charm I dont know is solid gold.

Good to hear. I know my liberty will be one of the last from Galveston so easy for rumors to start. Allure coming in and cant tender. No stops there schedules in a long long time once liberty pulls out. I was there week of sept 18.

I read now cigars can only be smoked poolside smoking area.

Really good to know. I would have assumed its refunded to how I paid it. If I'm in quarantine hard to use obc.

We had quite few on liberty reported positive for covid. I got a stomach reaction, I think to food which others also reported, so we posted a poll about being sick. Quite a few said covid. I knew before I boarded it had been on the previous week. I am glad to hear you are happy with the care and hope you get what refunds you want. Seems like people are having to learn to cruise with covid so not sure what oct protocols are. I am sure we had positives. Reported on roll call. It's still around.

I would pick independence which was amped. Liberty I was just on. TV in cabins doesnt work unless docked or near a dock for tv news, we got movies. TV at pool cant be fixed until dry dock. Been broken since covid. I've heard much better things about independence.

Idk if the recent hurricane could be why. I read the dock at grand Cayman got destroyed as a for instance. They could still be assessing recent storm damages?

Idk. I do see carnival is way ahead in the percentage of LNG ships coming. Costs more idk. Carnival embracing the green thing. As more ships embrace it, the price of LNG will have more and more effect. That's a 6 month chart and they had a fire ruined earnings and still hotter than a firecracker. Agree carnival was early with mardi gras. We need more solar power onboard.

Another future influence on profitability is LNG. Mardi gras uses LNG, and then celebration, then jubilee. Princess new ship will be LNG. Another carnival maybe it was P & O. Rcl new icon ots is being retrofitted for lng. Yes this is a stock not the price of LNG, but a fast way to track the LNG price. I dont own this stock but bullish on the whole sector short term. Burns cleaner than bunker oil. Yahoo says the chart is bullish short, medium and long term ... which is probably bearish for ccl if prices on LNG keep moving higher. No more black cloud from the smoke stack on your aft cabin as soot.

Yea the free tasted pretty good after that. Yes, it's always served room temperature. They squeeze the oranges there. Sometimes they make a whole pitcher full. So more than one of us got the battery acid rotten juice. I'm ok with room temperature, but now kinda afraid of the fresh squeezed. My stomach also reacted that cruise and not well making me doubly reluctant to try it on allure. I'm home for a while. Until dec. That was one of my worst cruises. That oj was just one issue. ..but that's 2 in a row non favorites. Time to stay home so maybe I appreciate it more even when issues. I'm hoping allure things work. I did have coffee vouchers in addition last b2b because diamond coffee machine was broken. So I was loaded lol. .. and my toilet flusher we called maintenance at least 6 times .. etc. I want a non broken cabin without issues. That's a non fun thing to deal with daily. Bring on allure. I'll buy you a free drink with my vouchers. Bella may be hard .. too many friends. John first.

I think for $100 pp you can transfer to another cruise. All of mine are group rates which are refundable deposits so I can change but since you asked I'm assuming yours are nonrefundable deposits?

I was sure looking forward to fresh squeezed oj on my b2b. Ordered it monday first sea day. It was like battery acid going down. I couldnt believe they would serve it like that. So thursday following gave it one more try. Sour but they tossed the rotten oranges. Kinda put me off fresh squeezed for now. One of a few disappointments. I'm one who has trouble using 5 a day. ...and that made it one less a day. Awful. Guy making it said they had a bad batch, but now idk .. not looking forward to it as much after that. Oddly enough a guy from march remembered me from that b2b and how I was there every morning asking for it. I loved it then. He said yea someone else said it burned. He was the fresh squeezed guy lol. Funny he remembered me.

It's a automated email. We had worse. We got emails about a coast guard inspection, come 1 hour late .. interspersed with emails to make sure we were on time. Reminders for both. Some are just automated they havent redone.

I dont think transatlantic cruises are all that hard usually to book. I've seen some heavily discounted great deals in the past last minute. There might be some exceptions but there are some great deals. Northern lights or something unusual is much harder to book and sells out.

You cant book shows until you board, so I just wait. Far aft you could have more movement if the waves are big. I did a corner aft and it was a longer walk but i enjoyed being there. Seems like Mdr and WJ are in the aft so I choose aft on purpose.

March 11 is even crazier. We were booking hotels as soon as we could get to them to book. Some sites wait. I booked airfare the day the 2nd leg to fly home came out on American. I dont like love field in dallas, parking costs double so I couldn't do a discount airline. I have one stop going and flying home from ft Lauderdale. Someone else also said they booked ft Lauderdale at half the price to fly into Miami. I'm smack dab in the middle of spring break. I was watching hotels and airfare from a month before as dates were released. I'm just worried I'll get bumped and all the other flights are full. A few got downtown hotels under $300 but we all booked really really early. We saw this coming. Its someones wives birthday is how he picked the week. .. I was sure thinking of not going. My same airfare of over $500 has gone to as high as $1066 now to a low of $828. I'm sure glad I'm not a couple and paying 2 airfares. It was hard to pull the trigger and pay over $500. But i knew it would probably get worse. OP feb 25 isnt as busy in miami but still busy. I'd book something at the airport i can cancel. Nothing suggests to me spring break will die down next spring. We have been talking months ago where to book. Now is getting late. Lol i wouldnt wait, but i booked many months go.

March 11. I have a even worse problem. Downtown is more than I'm willing to pay. I'm booked for $95 plus taxes near the airport and miami princess has a free airport shuttle. Sold out then a few rooms opened. Now they are asking $200 plus taxes. I guess I'll call uber but I was thinking I could shuttle back to the airport if there was public transportation to the port. I think there is to downtown, but not the port. Crossing my fingers and hoping for the best. Flight home from FLL at 11:21 so I need to hustle. Hopefully spring break dlesnt totally mess with flights. There have been some less expe sive hotels. Radisson red for $136 plus tax. Comfort inn not much over $100. I think it depends when you are going. Spring break or high season going to be high.

Price drops are only prior to final payment but yes for anyone. If a planner item drops its easy to go cancel it online. Then you just rebook it. I'm hoping for some excursion sales. Or anything else. I always look. .. just in case. You have to cancel the planner item yourself and rebook it and wait for a refund. Obc refunds immediately.

I've seen them not accepted pre covid..was standing behind someone at guest services having it explained how your name needs to be embossed. .. I was just thre listening, wasn't me.

I think now izumi will have the only sushi. Yea I remember some too. The pay sushi I do hear is a large order.

Liberty doesnt even have soda machine. I often ask for a can, otherwise they just give you a glass of whatever. I want the whole can.

Actually the promo doesnt end until the end of dec, book by sept 30 2021 and sail by dec 31 2022. You have thru dec to sail. I have a b2b in dec. Double pts.

They can only use embossed with their name Visa cards. Not gift cards. Depends on what you mean. Somewhere in faq it says no gift cards. Not the kind you buy at a grocery store.

You can use it at the cafe in the promenade for coffee drinks made with starbucks coffee. Just not at a stand alone starbucks. A lot on my last cruise were confused so I wanted to make sure people knew it was good on starbucks brand coffee in the cafe.

This is looking down from deck 14 to the pool deck. Something was going on as you can see people lined up around deck 12 .. deck 12 not shaded, but around the pools and solarium are chairs and tables. Also some new kind of chair that kinda dips hard to describe that I sat in some..as you can see there is share around the edges of the pool deck where you go back to the solarium. Oasis class has food in the solarium, not this class. Well so did grandeur but it didnt have the promenade cafe and sorrentos. Just the hot dog cart near the pool on sea days. Shade around the edges is plentiful.
