We have sailed Anthem many times and Seaplex is always very busy. Post covid, not all the activities were happening due to social distancing and staffing. Quantum in Alaska definitely wasn't operating as usual when we sailed last May.

Have definitely seen SF maple syrup in little packets in WJ, CK, MDR and Johnnie Rockets. DH uses it. If it is not out, just ask for it. Don't know about jam/jelly. I have seen plain greek yogurt, not sure if it was fat free though. It was a brand I haven't seen in the past, not Fage 0% that I use at home.

Kate lives in the same building in Ft Lauderdale as Chef Ben and they were a "thing" in the past. The other guess would be Bobby. He also lives near Kate, is older than most of the guys on BD and an interaction between Kate and Andy on WWHL last night makes me wonder.

I have already seen a lot about the show online, including the winner, and one of the biggest fights that happened. That is why I might borrow my Mom's Peacock password. I don't think Kate's baby daddy is from The Traitors, I do think it is one of two people from BD though.

Watch What Happens Live was good last night too with Kate Chastain and Kate from this season of BD. I wish I could see The Traitors that Kate Chastain was just on but it is on Peacock.

LOL Might be time to hit that little refresh button and see if you can still get a ticket. 😄

Well, if his password is different he is hacked but he must have told you something different than what he told me.

Oops. 🙂 At least you know what you did. You can always ask him to decline the invite so you keep that account friendless. I have had a few friends get hacked, one actually this past weekend. We got friend requests from the account even though we are already friends. Neither of us accepted them as we knew better. The notification finally went away this morning and he has his account back.

Just be careful because sometimes that is a sign that your account was hacked. I would suggest changing your password to something you don't use anywhere else. If you can't change it, you are likely hacked and need to report and try to reclaim your account.

Request one from your travel agent.

We have stopped participating in slot pulls because of this issue. It has become a point grab for some people and is no longer fun. One rollcall had a slot pull all organized and someone joined a few weeks prior to the cruise and completely pushed the original organizer out of the way. She ran a terrible slot pull and ended up taking the money to a roulette wheel and losing it all. Another rollcall, someone joined week prior and posted on three consecutive rollcalls saying they would start slot pulls even though slot pulls were already organized. It was fun while it lasted but not worth it anymore to us. Good luck with yours. 🙂

Good to know there are controls now after the problems they had with all the independent TAs years ago. I remember reading stories here of people that lost all their funds and TA disappeared.

Of course it is up to the purchaser to understand the policy but they should have the cruise line's invoice that details out the cancellation schedule. As far as paying the TA instead of the cruise line, the TA should use your credit card to pay the cruise line directly. Many people have lost money when TA's have gone out of business because they paid the TA directly and the TA never forwarded that money on to the cruise line on their behalf.

Make your CK reservations with the concierge when they contact you the week before your sailing. We have had no problem getting the times we want all week if we take care of it prior to boarding.

Odyssey doesn't have an outdoor eating area at the back of the WJ.

The chat feature in the app will only work while on the ship, you can not chat with someone off the ship.

I use the Flightaware app which is also what United now has imbedded in their flight status screen. It is very helpful in tracking my DH when he is travelling, like today. I can see that his flight is on arrival to EWR right now. 🙂

Here is a link to information about traveling with Royal Caribbean with someone with autism. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/experience/accessible-cruising/autism-friendly-ships I am not sure they will allow your son in the teen area since he is an adult unless you are sailing with Autism on the Seas when there are counselors specifically with that group that help.

There is a really good video of 11326 on Odyssey that shows a bulkhead wall on one side of the balcony and a partition that does open on the other side of the balcony. The cabins you are talking about would be the mirror of these cabins. You can see it around 13 minutes into the video.

If you want to do it at Endicott Arm, you will need to watch out for it to be posted in your cruise planner as an excursion. It will be sold out if you wait until you are on the ship. We sailed Quantum last May and you could book it a few months prior to sailing. Watch your roll call as someone posted when it was available to book on our sailing.

What is the DDP? The freestyle cup is included in all three drink packages. Bottled water is included in the refreshment package and the deluxe beverage package but not the soda package.

I know they exist, that is why I recommended them. I have never seen them near me to purchase. She can get them online if she has the time.

I have purchased the flat packs of the regular Clorox wipes and the generic equivalent but have never seen the healthcare bleach germicidal wipe flat packs.

Those are exactly what I was talking about that the OP could use instead of trying to smuggle bleach. Not sure if she will be able to find them but a flat pack of those would be more convenient than a bottle of liquid.

We have been in Northstar a lot because we have sailed on Anthem a bunch of times. It is a cool experience. We did go up on Quantum too but it was when we were still at the dock in Seattle. It was a great view of the city and the sound though. We didn't book for the glacier viewing since we were on an early sailing in the season and figured we would likely miss the glacier. I hope you don't get cancelled this time. 🙂
