I think that's why she said it was a stupid answer lol. Royals IT. Maybe if they make enough profits they can afford to hire some IT help. I cant get utopia online to work with DP340 either and someone above thinks it's because the sale says 60% off 2nd pax. Idk.

Well the pulmonologist isnt going to work out. I need to find out why I'm coughing all night and what's wrong with me. He cant see me until sometime in May for new patients. I cant wait over 2 months to find out what to do to stop coughing. Contacting my overly busy gp again. Idk why he couldn't run a test when I fasted and went to his office and gave blood in the first place. Don't they have tests for this kind of stuff? Making progress otherwise. We are closed on the new condo, called fpl, saw the tax guy to get things started.

I've gone once onboard and when I had anytime asked for 515 or 530 and gotten a table. You need to ask for a earlier time after you board. Cant book it yourself online.

Idk but I've read there is a 30 minute cut off, but hopefully if you are always late you arent seated at a table with others and holding up their ordering.

When they moved early dining up to 5 pm and opened food in the crown lounge also at 5 pm, I think it was a on purpose. This is why I dont go in at 5 pm, my dinner is the same exact time.

My burgers were as good as ever. I went 3 times during 14 days. The fries were always a little on the too done side to me. Fries aren't the old hand cut, I think frozen. Burgers were great.

You have to be pinnacle or in a suite to be in the suite lounge, lol, unless they limit to top 3p pinnacles. So some pinnacles can go to suite lounge. It's ok with me, I'm d+. Unless I book a full suite, it's for suite pax. I can always go in crown lounge, right now. I dont predict the future.

I dont feel sick sick, but my throat and chest hurts from coughing. Calling in the morning. Meanwhile my realtor did a walkthrough of the condo, I said I cant come until I'm over this. Looks pretty good, left some tools, light bulbs and a few bags. Rest looks clean. More tile and less carpet than I remembered. Tomorrow official closing day. We have all signed, just waiting for notice. I think he called it the ALTA. From closing. Tomorrow FPL, tax place, and call new doctor. Let's hope he can figure this out. I cant travel with this cough. It's bad, almost like hacking so hard, almost throwing up. Wouldnt want to be in a airplane full of people hacking.

I'm waiting on my feb wonder and utopia and nothing yet. I'm hoping they show up soon. None of mine for next year show up either. No I've never seen the first night 1/2 price. Bogo for d+ has to be paid for sometimes done by night 1 or 2. I doubt it will be on special sale with so many more d+. Last black friday lunches were on sale 40% off but I couldnt book past this xmas 2024. Nothing 2025. I've been booking more lunches lately.

No. But I also said I have a discharge from my eyes and nose. And it dries hard. Hence the ear nose and eyes doc that only does eyes. It's not just my chest, but my chest hurts from all the coughing at this point. I wasnt happy with my gp either and his lack of caring. I kept thinking good thing I am changing doctors to florida. I left mad. He just whizzed in and out. But I'll keep at it trying to find a doctor who figures it out. It's gone on too long.

Last time I had 11 am boarding but was onboard by 10:15. Sometimes they run earlier than what's on your time. I get there about 30 minutes before my time to get in line and all that.

Cabins open by 1:30, sometimes even 1 pm. .. if they arent open by 1:30 pm probably something has gone wrong with boarding. You could arrive 1 ish and by the time you board and get to your cabin, they will be open.

Well I went to the gp. He didnt test for what's wrong I think, said he thought respiratory. Poor visit imo. He said he was sending to ear nose and eyes, but sent me just to eye doctor who said oil glands blocked, so I been following what he said, but still coughing I told gp. So new specialist. Idk why it's so hard to find out why I'm coughing, especially at night if I lay down on the bed. Dont know this doctor is the answer but I'll go in and find out. Agree I am becoming concerned I've had it too long. Was not impressed with my gp visit. He prescribed a prescription vitamin D, stronger than over the counter I've taken 2 weeks. I told my realtor in florida I cant come I'm sick.

Me either, or figuring out what I've spent cruising. I feel guilty enough when I add up what my current bookings total, I dont want to know what I've already spent. I also dont count how many cruises I've been on. Dont tell me ... holds hands over ears.

Me too though truthfully idk if it's me or royal but I cant find anything new or interesting to book with royal. I pulled up vtg just to view the other choices. Ncl has 2 ships and princess at least 1 out of pc. Reasonable prices. Carnival has a 14 day journey cruise, but costs more on a per day basis. Those journey cruises are pricey. Inside starts around $3500 bottom deck inside. Usually around 6k balcony, but different ports. Idk why royal cant once in a while do stuff like these 14 day carnival. Ncl and princess about the same price. I've done each 3 times before and dont know which I'd rather do. Some different ports. Anyone have a preference between princess and ncl. Idk. I'll be a couple of weeks from pinnacle about this time, so I'd rather hit pinnacle, but royal I'd have to book same as I've already booked. Utopia even seems not terrible, but doing it next feb. Part of me wants to nail pinnacle down, part of me doesnt want to just repeat cruises I'm already doing. 2 weeks on rcl would put me at pinnacle... or book ncl or princess. Celebrity doesnt go out of PC. And I dont think I'd like msc. .. just fooling around today. Was up again last night coughing so I'll call the new doctor my gp recommended. Whatever it is the eye doctor isnt curing it. Pneumonia I'm thinking tbh. And other things tomorrow. Need to stop this coughing so I can move on with my life. Been over a month now.

I'm not the one who said maybe royal is having financial difficulties if star is 2 weeks late inaugural. I think sometimes you love stirring the pot now playing innocent. Now that we put that remark to rest.. Looking at PC, one journey cruise, starting at about $3500, Venezia. Nice itinerary, wouldnt have picked that ship. One I'll watch though. I wish it was a different ship. Love the ports. Princess and ncl also. I'd like to try HAL but doesnt go from PC. People still prefer the food on HAL. Princess has some less than 100% solo supplements. I'm a fan of spirit class myself. Did spirit class to alaska.

I just tried several dates for utopia and code says invalid. Idk if it's the ship, or too short of a cruise. Later in 2025 ..from sept on. Dates after sept 15 dont work.

I dont think dates matter, all the prices are high. I am looking same general time frame. Let me know if you find some good deals. Utopia actually doesnt look bad on a per day basis vs star lol. It's about the same price for 4 days as adventure for a few extra days. Not easy to decide for me.

I'm booked with the group. Feb 2025. So have to wait. I see some good balcony prices for sept 2025. Dp340 code isnt working, not sure if blacked out for sept or just their online site.

I'm specifically saying I booked xmas day cruise for this year, 2024 and that the code had worked for at least 6 months for a xmas date cruise before I booked, so they must be aware of it. I didnt know I was moving to florida and so didnt book when first released. I'm still paying a much higher price than people who posted early to my roll call I can see they booked balconys solo for much less than insides now cost.. but solo code works online. Often works for xmas but only one ship I've seen for NYE 2025. Saying rcl cant fix it so it doesnt work for holidays if they wanted to fix it? Or maybe these smaller ships they are not fixing it to disallow it on purpose to fill older ships. I think the confusion is I'm talking about something different than nelblu. I'm talking about the code works online for some holidays on smaller older ships.

That's a different thing, code for solo not being able to work when first released. And the new format on their booking site i cant get to add the code with the browser i was using, wouldn't scroll down. I can book direct on holidays cheaper than my TAs group rates. But I'd have to book nonrefundable. I'm booked this xmas on adventure. Code worked when I booked fairly recently. Code works even NYE and xmas 2025. Only for smaller older ships do I see this. Lots of oddities.

Are there any lines that include wifi in the cruise price? That's the one thing I really miss on other lines, my free included D+ perk. I really enjoyed my 14 day journey cruise on carnival but wifi was over $250 even ahead of time.

I saw a couple of weeks ago DP340 worked for a ship out of tampa for Thanksgiving xmas and NYE. I've seen some work for Thanksgiving and xmas but first I've seen work online for direct booking NYE. Smaller ships it seems to work more often, so maybe it's a on purpose to fill smaller ships imo. If the code is allowed to work for 6 months, imo they could fix it if they wanted to.

If only people would quit dragging royal into the conversation with stupid jabs. Then someone tries to use facts to set the record straight from the person who has to keep taking stupid jabs at royal. Maybe YOU could try and quit mentioning royal if you really wanted to get back to carnival and smaller ships. I personally dont see any cruise lines building smaller ships anytime soon. Except maybe some premium lines, not the mass marketers.

We got off about 745 and walked almost straight out. 730 we would have waited in line longer so waited a bit to join the line. Was out of the terminal by no later than 8:15 but your experience could vary. Might have been a bit before, but very fast. Facial recognition.
