HAHA....DH always tips the dealer when he wins....it's gentlemens' etiquette he says.

When I've booked the dining specialty packages, I made a fast run to the outside of the Oceanview Cafe by the elevators where a dining assistant was waiting to take restaurant reservations. I had a list of dates, times, and restaurants I wanted to reserve. He/she was always accommodating and no request was unfilled; however, we do dine early so maybe easier to book for us. FYI...The dining room maître d' was usually swamped with persons changing tables, etc, so I learned to try the OC first.

Thanks for your help...and from others on this thread.......much appreciated.

Would SDM do that arranging or is that something the user looks into? My concern is buying in Canada and proctoring in the US. And I'm pretty sure I have a few of the 'free' tests and I didn't think they were eligible for use on X?

Thanks....we'll be staying about 6 hours away from Ft L 2 days prior to the cruise. Looked into the pharmacies in that area but booking only allowed that day; our concern is that the appts may all be booked. Also looking at Ft L as we'll be there day prior to cruise. Same situation. If all else failed, X has a 'port' test offered for international travellers and I think that is day of. Wouldn't that contravene their 2 day prior rule? The proctor test is being considered....but...if we purchase at SDM before leaving would we still be able to use it in Florida? I'll look at post #3 for their experiences. The entire thing is becoming a headache.

Hi Fouremco....I've been all over CVS and Walgreens sites in **** Florida for info. We're driving down 4 days prior to cruise (hate the airport disasters so thinking a road trip this time). So....it seems the booking availability at Walgreens is day of...and CVS booking within 13 days. Both said results in 1 to 2 days. I suppose if we have roaming, we'll receive the results by text? If we need our tests done 2 days prior to cruise at our stop off point before we arrive at Ft Lauderdale, and the pharmacy is booked up, that may jeopardize the cruise. I knew I'd find knowledgeable cruisers on CC who've been through this so here I am asking for help. Sorry if this sounds confusing, because I AM confused...LOL.
