My wife and I were on the POA in January several years ago. While it was nice we were surprised there were no fragrant flowers during that time of the year. Any suggestions on the best month to visit the Hawaiian islands to experience the fragrance if we were to make a return trip? Thanks.

That's easy enough. Cash it is. Just a few days to go for us! :)
Thanks!
-
Concerning breakfast items delivered to the stateroom. Is there a place to include a tip on the paperwork? More importantly, do you think the staff prefers cash tips or does adding it to the order summary work just as well? Thanks!!!!

Thank you for the pictorial review. We'll be boarding the Royal in a few days, January 9th., and this certainly whets our excitement.

I used it just last week. It worked perfectly.

Any word on how badly Labadee was damaged?

If you happen to run into the Murphys from South Carolina please tell them Chuck says hello. They're on your cruise as well. :)
-
We're also looking forward to your posts. Our friends the Murphy's from South Carolina are aboard now and will be on until NYC on the 22nd. Pretty small world we live in. :)

We've took the tour on the Crown with captain Nash - worth every bit considering the robe, jacket, etc.. Just a thought, but if it was inexpensive there would be too many guests wanting to participate creating a lot of problems. I'm sure the tour has to be at least a little disruptive to the crew.

For gosh sake, unless you have something bothering you just fill it out there. It just takes a few moments and is just part of the embarkation process. If you are sick, PLEASE be honest for everyone else's welfare. :(

Motion X GPS HD
Motion X has 2 apps. You do not want Motion X Drive for this purpose.
Thank you.

I always take my iPad to use the free internet minutes. A few of the things I use it for: ...............
3). I have an app which allows me to see where we are and how far it is to the next port. If I see another island in the distance I am able to identify it. I download all the maps prior to the cruise so that it doesn't take internet minutes. .........
6). Check the Cruise Critic forum
Paul, do you mind sharing what app you use?

That's the best advice I've read in awhile. Just go to the source! :)I suggest you call Princess and ask now.Don't wait for something to magically fall into place.
-
You said it well for my wife and me.It's hard to explain that "It's where we belong" feeling we have on Princess. :)Sure, we still cruise on other lines from time to time for cruises of 10 days or less because you never know unless you cruise on them yourself.
-
Thanks for sharing your cruise with us. BTW, the poor people comment cracked me up.

We used the Princess transfer from Southhampton to LHR and I highly recommend it. The coach got us there quickly despite rain and rush hour traffic, in plenty of time to catch our late morning flight to O'Hare. You're spending on your cruise, just spend a little more and rest easy knowing you're in their hands. Good luck.

I've been following this thread for several days. I can assure you the captain did not make decisions regarding the storm in a vacuum. RCL has an operations center, much like each airline, and decisions are made as a team.

there was no clock of any sort in our stateroom (10600).The alarm clock unit on the desk has a built in dock for older Ipod/Iphone bases. Same connector as older iPad's but they won't physically fit in the dock. A case of something specced in 2007 or 2008 when the ship was under construction but not longer used on the latest generations. -
We were on the Oasis last week in a Superior Oceanview Balcony. There were no iPod or iPad chargers. I have both devices and used my own chargers for each. The iPad uses the older charger connection and my iPhone 5 uses the newer lighting charger.

We disembarked yesterday. We got down to Deck 5 midship at 7:15, were off within minutes, had a very short line through Customs, taxis were plentiful and we were at the FLL airport well before 8. It was vey quick and easy.
-
RCL shuttle or taxi, which would you use to get to the airport? Are there always enough taxis available around the Oasis?

Carnival Conquest
in Carnival Cruise Lines
Posted
My wife and I will be on a six day Caribbean cruise aboard the Conquest in January.
As you can see in my signature we've mainly sailed with Princess and RCL. This is our first time with Carnival and we've avoided the Carnival 3-day Bahama trips.
We're actually looking forward to trying something new but have a little concern about some stories we've heard, maybe written by cruise snobbists. What do you think? A six day cruise, crazy raucous or not? Carnival stories blown out of proportion? Seriously. Thanks!
