Try this tour company. Will pick you up at the pier and drop you at the airport. We have used them in the past and were very satisfied with their service.

We have used both What's App & Facetime on the ship with good results. The quality depends on the wifi connection, and the number of users on at the same time. The last few months there have been alot of complaints about the wifi.
The Riverside on Los Olas would be a great location for New Years. But I'm sure most places are going to be high priced for the holiday.
Just checked prices, and Riverside's lowest priced rooms (the old tower), is only about $50 more than Crowne Plaza.
Also, they may not take an older bill. Tried to spend a $50 in Cozumel last spring. It was printed in the 1990's, president's heads were smaller, and no colors. Was asked if I had another bill, as the bank would not take it.
On Princess "Jacks or Better" 6/5. Don't remember if the $1.00 or bigger denominations pay better.
That's why I won't play. It's hard enough to make money at 9/6.
The camera is located in/on one of the condos on the north side of the channel.
The camera that was located on the Pier 66, showing the 17th Street bridge, is probably down because Pier 66 is totally gutted.
A number of years ago we went to Alaska on either Coral or Island. There used to be lounges on some of those decks. There were none on that trip. First stop in Ketchikan we went ashore and purchased some very inexpensive "bag chairs" and used them on the back deck. As I said it was years ago, and it was a higher deck. Those decks no longer are on the Island. The Coral now is one of our favorite ships, with 88 days on her and Island (before the ruining of the Island).
Not true on the three cruises we've been on since Nov 2021.
Definitely true in the past, they told you it was only open for In-Transit passengers. Still probably true on some ships.
