  1. we're booked for Jan 2026 on Eclipse..hoping for some updates!
  2. what's next? we heard Eclipse.??
  3. ha.. just saw a news blurb on tv about a lawsuit over whether or not boneless chicken pieces would be expected to have bones.. Words Matter??
  4. This is why many times Rules, Conditions and Limitations are read over the taped phone calls. Customer can ask questions and then indicate consent if they agree. Guess another word would ge better than UNlimited...but the limits were shown in the description.
  5. On recent cruises to the Carib, we found that many cruisers had the same plan to stay on board.("been there, done that") Guess it is flexible..and depends. We usually pick one port day to stay on board..esp if a tender port On Ascent, San Juan was a day where it was fairly crowded at the pools all day ...we stayed on board but did not have the ship to ourselves at all..Outdoor Pool and Solarium were fully packed. But on Beyond, when we stayed on board (not sure which port) , we lucked out and enjoyed sparsely populated Retreat pool and lounge areas! It was great, til folks returned from port, but we were ready to go anyhow!
  6. very cute story! not much there but the post ofc from what I recall..
  7. we never book a guarantee.. pick a rm we like and enjoy it! rooms under buffets, cafes, pools , gyms etc can be noisy!
  8. yeah..the stop in hell is....h e l l! There's a park on GC where Blue Iguanas roam... on my list but maybe next time fun for Gen Z..not sure if she's a fan??
  9. Not surprised...it's a popular itin, and the ship is getting great reviews.. .Many are going back to S and M ships from E Class after they are even more pricey!
  10. Loved the remaining pics etc.. We are no longer doing long excursions with walking and touring, so I much appreciate hearing abt yours!
  11. nice review..great photos but seemed like a very busy day..no time to sit and enjoy!
  12. good to know! nice idea but it may make it more crowded.. we enjoy quiet tea time there! card players should be sent to the card rm ..or another area on E Class..
  13. my father loved kippers.. I eat fish for bkfast most days..lox, sardines, sable !
  14. The greatest age! pre teen and so grown up, & sophisticated but still love their " plushies!"
  15. I used to buy a product at some salon or spa visits but not when I learned abt the extra.charges. Skipped getting a hair mousse last time.. it was a huge size, quite expensive and would incur the fee. (items are usually cheaper on line w/ discounts and free ship and samples) Sometimes you can find something u need in the cosmetic/ perfume store or liquor/ sundries store that has various items.
  16. Never expected " real answers"..so I did not read it. I think the focus events with real cruisers get more info..but have not signed up for that either. We'll just keep cruising .... until it isn't fun!
  17. What a great goal, and incentive for her to excel! Galapagos sounds so cool! So blessed that your hard work makes it possible! Would be great if all 3 of you could go! BTW.. if you ever cruise from Tampa Fl, they have a world class aquarium, a fabulous Tampa zoo and many other places nearby... See Manatees in nature, etc; close to Busch Gardens, Dinosaur World and all the Orlando attractions! ( not just Mickey & Minnie!) Can't wait for the next adventure!
  18. So excellent! Can't wait to try it!
  19. We just take the Classic package.. so we have lower expectations .We can bring on two "better" wines bought at a lower pre-cruise, plus some nice sparkly waters for me. My husb can splurge on any hi end drink if he chooses, and not incur a huge upcharge!
  20. Great to hear about the Samsung phone camera..We use Samsung (android) phone, tabs and lap tops but sometimes my hus still drags a real camera/ lense set up..really no need! We are booked on Eclipse for a 2026(?) Carib cruise, and I will def pre book the Hot Glass experience. We have observed but never made anything. We might do Bermuda again esp on an S Class ship....it's one of the best places to visit.. but we hate the dticw to port from LI NY...maybe car service or limos will go there now,,? Thanks again for a wonderful review!
  21. the balloon drops i the main atriums have also waned.. X is not a frat party type of crowd ..but yet lively and fun ..at least on E Class!
