During our recent Panama Canal cruise on Joy they opened Vibe at 5AM on the canal transit day and provided coffee, tea and danishes. It was a nice area for the transit day and also very nice on port days, but even on sea days it never felt crowded.

Lots of good northern lights last summer visible in northern MN. No need to travel to Alaska or Norway.

My guess is crew quarters.

Last summer we spent two weeks in a lido deck balcony and had no noise issues.

They're supposed to go on sale tomorrow, unless they're delayed like Europe was. As mentioned Eclipse for 2024. May 11 sailing to Bermuda also stops at Martha's Vineyard. May 19,26, June 2,9,16,23,30 July 7,14,21,28 all to Bermuda Then August 4 is NJ to Iceland and August 16 Iceland to Boston. Then a few New England Canada cruises before sailing to FLL October 11.

While Celebrity and Princess are very similar, a notable difference is that Princess has indoor smoking areas, specifically the casino. Princess does usually offer a non-smoking casino on formal nights. Another point, my experience is that formal night on Princess is more formal than evening chic on Celebrity. If you like the Princess Hawaii itineraries give them a try.

Pretty sure I've seen Europe 2025 cruises posted already.

We tried it on Sky, I wasn’t impressed, one and done for us.

Safe travels home! Thanks for your review and all the pictures!

Do you think having the drink package played a part in spending less time on the balcony?

Spent 14 nights on Sky this summer I found the bed to be very comfortable.

Yes, many cruises on several different lines. And not that I consciously moved away from NCL I just happened to find other itineraries on other ships that interested me more. Finally made it back and cruised the Bliss a few years back and enjoyed the ship so I have picked the Joy for our cruise through the canal this January.

Boston to Miami repo via Bermuda, Bonaire, St. Thomas and more probably more islands I don't remember, it was a long time ago.

Norway (twice) Majesty Wind Bliss Joy in January

found it and following! Glad to hear you made it safely. Can't wait to hear all about the MG!

As I understand it if your home address is the same they will assign the same C&A status.

As I understand it there are three different shows. I’m not sure if all ships have all three but they will tell you which shows are which night if you ask when you board and could likely move your reservation if you are currently booked to see the show you already you’ve already seen.

We were in the first balcony on lido deck and it looked to me like all the balconies opened.

I think it's your onboard wifi and not cruise critic. I had the same issues while cruising over the summer.

It was also dropped from our January 6 Joy canal cruise. I don’t know why.

She's on Eclipse

I would guess the spa is more expensive on Discovery.
