  1. For you not worth it. For me still mostly yes. I dont hardly drink so 5 free drinks a day more than enough, dont care what the pkg costs. Another 2 years I'll be pinnacle and get free wifi. And least things like excursions go on sale unlike carnival where excursions are full priced. Cheaper on rcl. And rcl gives me a solo discount. As bad as the prices are, the grass isnt greener elsewhere, just different grass.if I saw great deals elsewhere I'd do them.
  2. I cant check in for my may 6 mariner cruise. Been trying too. I've been wondering about uninstalling the app or if anything would help. Same date as op.
  3. Bella 3.0 oasis 8 day southern, Oasis ots 1/24/26 to 2/1/26 Bella 3.5 Oasis 6 day western . 2/1/26 to 2/7/26 Out of ft Lauderdale.
  4. I havent seen a $49 flight either. I guess maybe if I wanted to fly from dallas to houston, not from florida. I dont see other flights besides sw from orlando to hobby. I thought maybe i missed them and they booked up earlier this morning before I got online. Maybe the good rates just book up? Or dont exist.
  5. Remind me too close in. Right now I'd like fall 2025 if anything. But I decided to buckle down and get moved before I book more. I dont really want the beverage pkg though I wouldnt mind wifi. I dont think celebrity treats solos as well as rcl now that I hit 340 on rcl.i have southern booked on adventure out of PC april 2025. Bonaire will be new to me. But close in who knows, I might not be able to say no.
  6. That's what I said on harmony when they first said no izumi sushi. I said I did it on allure and it's not listed as a exception. Same with wonderland, I said if it's not listed as being not included its included. ..as a special favor imfinally got them. Then it was have to do the more expensive first. Others have said that too. Pricing can be the more expensive or least expensive, whichever is first. I have not found its clearly written at all.
  7. It does not require booking in canadian dollars to get covered per my TA, as ourusualbeach posted anyone who books with a TA where he is in Ontario is covered by those local laws. .. though I actually do have some booked in canadian dollars. With canadian obc. I'm just not booking planner items ahead probably and let it sit. I have not asked for shareholder obc for those. Dont know if it's a issue. It was a oddball situation. Just the one time.
  8. Each ship seems to do whatever they want. It says must be paid by night 1 or 2. Allure they moved my 2nd night without telling me from night 4 to night 2. Just happened to see it in the app. Harmony said no to izumi sushi and wonderland, izumi sushi was ok on allure. But they allowed night 1 and whichever other night for me as a solo. I have even written asking for rules. They dint exist. What I'm saying is just because someone else posts they used it for lunch who knows what they say your cruise.
  9. Well dream and another that class have some longer cruises out of Galveston. I did 14 days on dream and it had some 8 days. Unless you dont use the T pool only on dream class. But jubilee is nice too. Lots of good feedback. And jubilee has some better restaurants. Once I get moved I'm going to try to find a last minute mardi gras. I admit to wanting the new ships too.
  10. Sounds like we had the same b2b. 2 stowaways. They came onboard and checked out passports, all set to return to our cabins except for the 2 stowaways. Eventually they had to march us all off the ship. Took a while to find them.
  11. Or they can book usa rates thru a canadian TA and get canadian protections??!!
  12. WJ will have lots of free french fries. Not onion rings. I'm looking forward to mariner who has play makers onion ring tower. Not free. Those days seem gone.
  13. The one thing I disagree with is those mega ships have more dining options. I have enjoyed some of them. Wonderland on harmony was fun. I'm looking forward to play makers on mariner. I do have some extra obc that I will use up on mariner. It's not just the rock climbing it's also food choices and mega ships have more choices.
  14. Clearly sw is a learning curve. I picked a later time to fly into hobby than I really wanted. The very next day when I checked a shorter flight leaving not quite a hour earlier was there. I should have grabbed it, didnt know you could just change online. So now I checked and what I booked was $14 less same exact flight. Says 1 left. I booked that 1 price and have a $14 future credit. .. and checked again. 1 left at the same lower price. Wouldnt be flying sw again any time soon. I can say I sure didnt get good prices. Fail for me both directions. Now they show cheaper prices. I guess my timing was just wrong. Next flight will be from rome to orlando may 2025. Not sw. I couldnt find anyone else who flew to hobby. I'd have to fly into IAH to do a regular airline. I know hobby better. The bigger airlines are cheaper base fares but extra to check baggage. Cant win. They all wind up about the same.
  15. I check in tonight at midnight for the 7 day mariner. I've seen 10:30 previously, the harmony earliest was 11 am. I've never seen 10 am out of Galveston. I'll know tonight.
  16. Well my thinking is the same as January I pushed to diamond on carnival, lock it in before it changes. Now I'll lock in pinnacle. I sure wish I could make it before the TA and have that free wifi for 13 then 10 days. I'm too far away. But I will make pinnacle and like you then look around more. But I want to lock it in before they change it. I dont trust them not to change the points. I dont have any really high priced booked, not like icon prices.
  17. Just my opinion but I'd do dream class if you are booking a cloud 9 spa cabin. Dream class is the only carnival class with the T pools. Wave and minerals. Yes heated benches and all that but only dream class has the T pools. Jubilee will have more food choices but they moved on to Havana area vista class then mardi gras class has a new elite area. Spa class is a afterthought. I'm going to push on to pinnacle on royal. Got 18 booked, so I will do these and hope prices fall. Decide then.
  18. Almost every stock jumped yesterday but last week a analyst gave it a one year target of 160.
  19. Yes I had already chosen. I just posted the prices here after the doctors visit. I gave him the money right then, that day, but afterwards was wondering. For something forever I wouldnt choose less. The worse thing is the eye drops. The surgery doesnt hurt because they do eye drops that burn like heck that deaden your eye. 3 rounds of 5 drops as fast as they can and one burns. He says that eye is 20 20. I guess. Time to start my daily eye drops. Left eye is april 1, the 4 weeks of eye drops after for that eye. Just barely can get it in before my may 6 cruise. Mariner. Never did mariner and so wanted the one week maiden texas voyage when it arrives in texas. A friend booked too so I have someone to hang out with. Then move.
  20. I tried at 11 pm texas time, then midnight. I needed to book my flight with SW. I googled when flights show up after release, it said by 5 am. Tried 5 am and still didnt see nov 3. Finally fell asleep and just tried :( No good fares left if there ever were. Lots of people book same thing? I finally got a 11:05 am flight out of Hobby. I could have gotten a cheaper one almost 4 pm, but kinda late for less. I'd like to be back before dark to florida. Hope 11:05 isnt too early. I guess I should have tried every hour since 5 am. Maybe they never had cheaper flights when they came out? They advertise fares from $65 but evidently not to florida. Or only if you booked the minute it came out this morning. How does this work. I booked American last spring break but other than that it's been pre covid since I booked. Is demand really that high? Well seems like I was late to the party to book a flight home (and late to book to hobby). I still had harmony booked out of Galveston and wanted to make it worth while flying to Galveston one last time. Then after oct this year everything is booked out of florida.
