  1. What day and time will you be picking us up and you can mark us down for two bags and two carryons?
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. If a recession, prices may drop but I can't really recall service or food getting better during such times.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. I don't think they can get rid of the strawberries unless they come up with replacement to send to room for service miscues.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. Maybe to simplify they should label 'hair' 'face' 'rest of your junk. Definitely going heavy on the Revive.
  12. Welcome to CC. Lots of new folks in the new year.
  13. They actually used to have up to that much obc in the day, even into the fdr years. Last few years, not really seen much.
  14. It's like buying a car in the 70's or 80's.
  15. So I guess the back of the house ops not being supportive of the Frontline staff is acceptable. This acceptance has sailed and sustained for years.
  16. Welcome to CC. Note GA Haven does not have a roof over pool area. Answers to many of your questions will vary wildly ship to ship and even room to room.
  17. They open between sailings to power wash. If they happen to leave unlocked after cleaning, maybe, but not likely. Normal policy for years is to keep locked.
  18. There are. I avoid the sun and there are some trees for sure as you walk past the food areas. We just sat on beach, no chairs. I did have something very small bite my legs though.
  19. I have eye doctor appointment in about ten days, first in over twenty years, neglect on my part. I'm expecting the chart will consist of if I can read NCL t&cs without glasses. Pass or Fail. Back to Escape. Sailed 2018 to Bermuda. I want to say some reports before we sailed about rocking. We didn't have super rough seas but never had any rocking issues and we were up high and forward in worst spot to feel effects, had none. I'd agree about Escape at the time, very good staff and everything else. We had a bunch of obc we had to use in shops which actually a bit difficult. Other than DS got a watch he never wears I could not spot any of the stuff at home today.
  20. It obviously varies how often. We even had the bag special twice on a six day cruise awhile back. Tons of threads out here with wide range of experiences.
  21. Never had to ask for tomatoes to get sauce on pizza unless specific to that one type maybe. The room service menu will list standard options which has expanded over the years on US sailings. You can deviate but they generally struggle with that. I probably have a picture of the menu but by the time I find it you'll probably be onboard.
  22. Question would be if you aren't already in YC how you going to talk to YC Concierge? I know I've read one person here reported upgrading once onboard but don't recall what they were originally in. Also note the YINs have coffin size showers if a factor based on someone's size.
  23. Last fall they had games everywhere including room.
  24. Sausage not really a thing on pizzas for MSC. We've ordered before and got breakfast sausage.
