On the ships built before Sovereign class there weren't safes in the cabin. You had to bring things to the Pursers desk if you wanted them locked up in their safe. It was a free service, but not as convenient as having a safe in the cabin.

 

The Windjammer was outdoors and only partially covered; not fun when it was raining. The current Windjammers are a big improvement.

Some ships still have safes in Pursers dept - but ones in cabins are easier to use.

Yes, they aren't for short people - however I've noticed on handicap cabins the peep holes are lower and sometimes there are two - one high and one low

Maybe you could talk with TA and see if he can get wrist bracelet similar to little kids-it could have his name, cabin and table #

Why not bring one anyway - i always travel w/one in ny carryon bag - as long as your devices are multi current you should be ok regardless.

You can go to Tamarind - ask for it grilled or gluten free otherwise it is breaded! I kid you not!

When RCCL had only 3 ships and were only 7 day cruises - at Christmas time there would be a 2 week cruise on one of the ships. And RCCL would give a Lladro figurine as a present to the passengers.

If you want to cruise leaving your husband at home - have him try using old passport - he will NOT be allowed to board - read your docs - get a new revised passport pronto or lose more money from cruise you wont be taking.

I think were all talking about the same thing we just have different names for it yes I did see pictures of the cable car but I really don't remember it swinging back-and-forth and I too am afraid of heights and wasn't scared at all. Have fun.

Whatever, -- must be something new within the last 15 years - maybe you tendered to a different place than i did..

Im afraid of heights also however, I was very surprised that it was not an actual cable car that would swing back-and-forth on a cable in mid air. It's really a Funicula that is attached to the side of the wall. It is more like an escalator., With no moving steps. You'll be really surprised when you see it because it's not scary at all.

The cable car is a funicular - its attached to the mountain - I'd personally use it rather than the donkeys. A lot more safe. It's been years since I've been to Santotini but I'm sure it hasn't changed that much.

Your flight is too early to use Luggage Direct - usually flight has to be after 1 or 2 - I'm assuming you mean 12 noon.

I suspect that may have been on the Gatwick Express to Victoria?

Yes I believe it was. Nice way to get to London w/o having to get ticket ahead of train.

I don't know if it's changed but several years ago you bought your tickets while on the train from Gatwick to London Sorry, I just read the priors and I was of no help. My goof!

I had really big problems with the CC APP day before yesterday but whatever the problem was, mine is working really well now. I kept sending emails (as requested by the APP) - nothing would update but they fixed it! Love the app.

HAL is that way but on RCCL recently it was not required nor requested by ship or Luggage Direct - I just left ship at appropriate time to fly home. I booked it while on ship - if it is not mentioned ask at front desk, formerly known as Pursers Square.

Yes, most of the time - other cruise companies do as well

Since I've been collecting ships I've accumulated a fleet of 21 ships - I've been thinking of going on several short cruises in a row next year on different ships so I can increase my collection. [emoji322][emoji322][emoji322][emoji569]️

Actually as a 4 Star Mariner on HAL I have free laundry.

I don't lock my luggage. It keeps my luggage from becoming damaged with some over zealous inspector or thief. I've had too many pieces of luggage damaged in past. So no more locks and no damage. Nothing has ever been added or removed.

Holland America and Royal Caribbean both offer laundry by the bag - probably $29.00 US - Holland irons and RCCL just launders and folds. But on RCCL you can get ironed and it is beautiful. How every, you pay per item.

Yes Internet I crappy -I've always found the best time to use it is around 3 am while everyone else is asleep. If I win the lottery I will be on the next world cruise. Have a great cruise!
