Thanks for the info.

Is the charge for a taxi $8.00 for a single passenger?

Not staying in a hotel. Just need a place to park for the week.

Got mine yesterday, all expire 11/22.

Trying to check in for my 2/19 cruise and can't get my passport information loaded.  I did get a new passport in July, so my passport number now is different.

Can't get in touch with Holland America, too busy.  Anyone have an idea about how to handle this problem?

Where is the My Chart?

What is the expiration date for your tests? The Emed test I used last month expired in early February

Leaving on Escape on Jan 8.  Hopefully I won't get Covid before that date.

I'm on a casino comped cruise and paid a little over $500.00, going solo.  What worries me is that if I'm turned away, I may not get another comped cruise and with the FCC I will have to pay much more to book a regular cruise.

Funny part is that I have a studio booked on 1/3/22 but when I do my specialty dining, the minimum amount of diners is 2 on the reservation list. Ahh well, maybe I'll make a friend 😇

They will seat you by yourself.  The waiter will ask if someone is joining you.  Just tell the no and the waiter will take the other place setting away.

My cruise starts in 17 days and I was able to book a reservation for Le Bistro, but I can't book one for Bayamo or Cagney's.  Both indicate that they are not available to book.  Does that mean they are completely booked or that I have to book them after boarding?

The cigarette smokers are just too lazy to go to their approved smoking areas.

If you test positive a day before the cruise, can you reschedule your cruise.  What are your options?

what is the email address?

Along with a light jacket or shawl in my evening tote, I always have a book to read at a solo table.  Reading allows me to tune out noise and relaxes me.  It's also an ice breaker.  

I listen to books.  Passes the time away between courses.

There are loads of places all over that city where you can schedule a test appointment in advance and get it back in a few hours tops.  If that is too much you could buy an observed self administered tests and do it from your hotel room.  I don't see this risk you are talking about.

Don't think   observed self administered tests are allowed now.

Carnival cruise 8/16 is stopping in Bimini.  Any information would be appreciated.

Writing about the Cheers package pricing has nothing to do with the post asking about whether or not it's honored at Amber Cove.  

Nobody really knows.  Slots are better for offers, more so than tables.

I thought the food was very good, the wine tasty (and more than enough provided), and the show entertaining.  I would do it again.

Interesting topic.  I applied for a passport renewal in May.  My passport expired in March 2022.  I'm on a cruise departing on 8/16/2021 and September 19, 2021.  Passport office is working on my passport, but I don't think I'll have it for a few months given their huge backup.  I requested my birth certificate and hopefully will have it before 8/16.  Hopefully I'll have that.  One problem resolved.  I have Allianz insurance for the year and It looks like they will pay a claim.  That doesn't help to get me home from a foreign hospital.  So if anyone know what insurance company will pay up to get me out of a hospital and on a flight home, please let me know.

 

Coincidence:  Just receive email from Dept of State indicating they are working on my passport.  Sould have it in a couple of weeks.   

I also reviewed my Allianz policy.  They will send me to the nearest appropriate hospital.  No problem there.  If I have a serious injury or illness, they will arrange to fly me back to my home or a hospital near my home.  Ok there.   

I checked with them and received an e-mail back listing my offering:  $500 fun play, $200 OBC and Drinks all over.  They responded quickly.  Take a copy of the response with you to the casino.

Also, where does one find the form to request the credit, and where does one send it.
