  1. We've had Haven cards with high lats level for long time. No flashing anything, just give card when asked going into restaurant. I guess the benefit must be getting a seat near doors to kitchen as that seems to be the pattern for us.
  2. Having worked in the provider side, you'd be surprised how much is par baked, frozen, shipped, then baked to finish. Actually taste quite fresh.
  3. Who knows. They removed lounge on Star and Dawn and replaced with rooms. I'm sure they've made more money on the rooms than people sipping coffee.
  4. Sounds like a new thing. Trying to figure out other than maybe less drinking how this cuts costs.
  5. We had an H2 on Escape and probably one of best rooms ever. Understand that you are looking at H3. It is windy while underway. Sitting not so bad as below railing height. We were in Bermuda so in port for 2.5 days so wind not an issue there. Yes, you get three bottles, in room soda, in room sparkling or still water. Supposed to be one bottle of champagne but they cheap out with sparkling.
  6. If you don't have any seasickness issues, I'd book an inside on 12. They are much newer added around 2011. Quiet area, close to pool, buffet, one deck up to bar and front deck area.
  7. we've sailed in those OS several times. There is also a side balcony, room huge. But at +40 percent, no unless more than two people.
  8. It sounds like Arthur is now YC maitre d so things should be pretty good on Mera.
  9. As a Rueben aficionado, note that some use corned beef and some use pastrami. When we sailed Prima menu said pastrami but whatever it was, it was pretty good sandwich.
  10. Our only point of reference is POA after drydock and spa was going to be worked on for 30-45 days after drydock.
  11. What day and time will you be picking us up and you can mark us down for two bags and two carryons?
  12. Just some general info. Verizon used to sell a plan for Cell at Sea but it is long gone and now Ala carte. POA does not have cell at sea if someone doing Hawaii.
  13. Ready - hope MSC works for you. We sailed YC eight times and would say except for last food was pretty good. October we sailed 11 nights and walked out of YC restaurant twice and skipped it another couple. My go to filet was rubber on six of eight I tried. Hola's was good as was BC. Buffet was o.k. but they ran out of some stuff like lettuce.
  14. If a recession, prices may drop but I can't really recall service or food getting better during such times.
  15. As per pp, e.g. on Gem an OS on 9 or 10 would get you into the tiny Haven pool area but on these trips it is noted they don't.
  16. Right, not a lot of discussion about POA entertainment as a lot of folks tired from busy day on land. Note the buffet has a stone oven that makes some good pizza. It is port side in the front as you walk from the bar aft.
  17. We've had new numbers assigned several times, luckily all fixed automatically with email notice. Our DD got stiffed when they changed rules years ago and no help or fix despite numerous contacts.
  18. I don't think they can get rid of the strawberries unless they come up with replacement to send to room for service miscues.
  19. There are only 13 H5 on Prima. A couple have two doors to bathroom, a couple at the back have a bigger balcony. We spent 12 days way back and would have to check where DW did hair. More important is getting all six shower operation stations to work at once which is doable.
  20. Welcome to CC too. Probably best to do separate thread as POA unique ship and entertainment. Sky, other than being Pride of Aloha in mid 2000s for a few years, will not be like POA for activities.
  21. Maybe to simplify they should label 'hair' 'face' 'rest of your junk. Definitely going heavy on the Revive.
