Sailing out of NOLA, you don't have to switch to airplane mode for a few hours. I usually do it before dinner, to access menus and because I may forget later.
The short line at guest services is one of my favorite things about FTTF. You don't plan on going to guest services, but end up going there for unexpected reasons.
Was on Glory in Feb. this year as a group of 9, going by myself next April. Signed up for early seating, prefer a table to myself, saw a bunch empty in Feb. Fingers crossed as I'm a bit of an introvert.
Enjoying your take on things.
Not trying to be snarky or anything, but don't CCL points transfer over to Princess? I've never done Princess, just thought you might want to look into that.
I had to rebooked a casino offered cruise last week due to schedule conflict. Original offer was no longer available, but they transferred non-refundable deposit as well as drink and internet packages to new cruise. Only getting charged around $5 difference when done. Guessing it all depends on offer and a little bit of luck. I had purchased Cheers and internet packages before price bump, so I was pleasantly surprised!
