What deck is used for boarding in Long Beach?
-
Just went with them in Feb. They will wait for you. Kinda hard to find your contact though. Well worth the money.
-
I was sitting next to a lady on Panorama Thursday night who tried to cash out Promotional cash. A notice came up on the screen that said it wasn't allowed!
I know this is different from what O.P. asked.
Point is... the technology is there to block anything that wasn't played or won.

Can't stay ashore. Ship leaves and makes laps out in the ocean until the morning. What happens if it is too rough to tender the next day? Can you say "screwed the pooch"?

PV? That's an entirely different animal. They use 2 sea days for that it swaperation on the northbound leg. Much easier than the 1 sea day used for Cabo last itineraries.
I get that. Supposedly the reason for the Cabo / PV itinerary swap was for the time to return. IIRC, we actually did PV last on our first Panorama sailing. Right before Covid. Just sayin'.
-
Sailed Panorama 3 times; have #4 booked. Pride, Splendor and Miracle had no problem sailing home from PV on time. Hopefully this downtime will fix it.

You must not spend much time on the pool decks.
Pool deck or not... never seen buckets "on sale". For sale; yes. Buy some every cruise.

We have been traveling to Mexico for several decades (land and sea vaca) and have not had an issue with food, ever. If you are not comfortable with something then dont eat it and stick to bottled water would be my advice.
I sleep next to a woman who gets ticked off because there is so much Mexican food in Mexico! Go figure.

Excursion food is safe for everyone without a "snowflake" constitution. If people got sick on excursion food, that particular excursion would be out of business. Is the food on the ship safe to eat? Just sayin'.

If you cancel the sailing more than ONE YEAR before departure, there is no refund for the coverage. May be in the mouse print. I don't know.

September 6th 2024 from San Fransisco! OMG I didnt know the mosquitos are on steroids there, they must have migrated from Texas then! Thanks for that advice, adding bug spray to the list! Nasty critters!!
Wifey and I will be on this same sailing! Milestone cruise for us and a retirement gift to me.

Got contacted by the "upgrade fairy" today. Their offer was a worse cabin for double the price it's currently listed on the website. 😂
Currently on Panorama deck 8 ocean view
Upgrade offer was deck 1 oceanview... Deck 1 is often turned into the COVID floor still, don't wanna be on deck 1. They also want $500 for the upgrade...
I found this amusing. I declined it.
Ocean view on Panorama deck 8? Sure about that?

Great review, looking to get one in on this ship in the near future. One question, is Big Chicken as good or better than the gold standard Popeye's spicy chicken sandwich?
Never had Popeye's, but Shaq's is damn good. Gotta get the jalapeno slaw and some spicy bread and butter pickles.

Liked that ship as Victory... Love it as Radiance!
Sailed in May and did the same Rosarito lobster excursion. Pedro is a great guide. did you stop and sample pulque?

It will be fine. We have done that cruise many times, but only once on Panorama. Pride once, Splendor twice and Miracle twice or thrice when they were here.
My wife's birthday is in February, so...
Heads up on weather. Since the port calls have been flipped, it is going to be chilly until mid dayish Sunday on the way down. Then the last seaday, after Cabo, probably going to be chilly.
Nothing that a sweatshirt can't take care of.
So sad that the Casino bar has been removed.
Try JiJi's. Best food for the money anywhere!

Strange food this goat meat.
Goat is very good. Somewhere between beef and lamb. We raised a few goats when I was a youngster.
Unlike sheep, goats have a personality. It is hard to not make them a pet, when the animal is going to be harvested for food.

Curried goat and cumin rice on Panorama. Never have seen it before or since.

Why were they allowed in the first place?
