Towel Critter

You will love the shows on the MSC Divina. There is so much going on at all times on stage in the MSC shows.

They are the best we have seen at sea and we have sailed NCL, CCL, Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, Princess and HAL. Don't miss the afternoon opera performance, even if you don't like opera.

Do you always have to have the last word? Bless your heart...

Because that is how you do church jeans. :) MIne are usually starched/pressed even if Hubs' aren't. It's a Southern thing; you probably wouldn't understand. Bless your heart. :)

Towel crier is just mad because they never slept with a fan....[emoji7]

Oh, but I have slept with a fan. :D How 'bout you, Pork?

We've been on 11 cruises now and not once has either my husband or myself been turned away for wearing "church jeans". Church jeans are either very dark blue wash or black, not faded, ripped or torn, usually starched and pressed to the point they could almost stand up by themselves and have a bit of a sheen from the starch. About half the time, Hubs also wears a collared polo shirt, NOT A DRESS SHIRT AND TIE. He's just not a dress up person and neither am I. I usually wear a pair of church jeans, my nicest shoes and a nice blouse. I used to worry about having to wear a dress or skirt on formal night but I got over it :D

I asked this in a different thread and was told no, but haven't observed it for sure. Will check on our B2B Magic cruise in Jan 2018.

I was told by a PVP that it really depends on U.S. Customs, that it varies. Sometimes everyone has to get off and other times B2B cruisers get to stay on the ship. I'm not stating that as fact, but my source has been in the business for years and years and probably knows more about it than most of us.

What difference does it make , not everyone is on CC daily.

OP, as you can see you're going to get sharply contrasting opinions on this subject. But maybe you've gotten enough feedback to make an informed decision on this, now that you've heard both sides of the issue. Hope you have a great cruise!

He won't be turned away!

Enjoy your cruise ! :D

No, that's not funny.

Isn't it IRONIC. DON'T YOU THINK. A little too IRONIC. YEAH I REALLY DO THINK.... ITS LIKE RAIN-e-ain on your wedding day, it a free ride, when you've already paid. It's some good advice that you just didn't take. But who would of thought it figures???

 

Mr. play it safe was afraid to fly. He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye. He waited his whole damm life, to take that flight. But as the plane when down,,,,, he thought.... well ISN'T THIS NICE!!!!!

I like that song, btw! But you forgot to give the author credit and I know how you hate that. ;)

My husband is my biggest fan...and I sleep with him EVERY night! But, I also bring a small electric fan for air flow (hot flashes!!!)...you certainly can bring your fan. Don't bring an extension cord with a surge suppressor.....that is a no-no.

you people need to take a serious chill pill. it was a joke. the title of the thread is "sleeping with fans". I get the humor

Yes it was a joke... a very easy one that I'm sure a dozen folks saw the opportunity for, but decided against. I appreciate humor, have even attempted it myself on occasion here. BUT, when it's every single post from someone (and I'm not naming names ;) ) It becomes annoying. I have absolutely nothing against folks making a "funny" on here. I do it myself. But "in moderation" is the way to go. Imagine if only 25% of us here on CC posted a one liner three out of four times we posted. This site would be all but useless in regard to its intended purpose. Moderation. That's all I'm suggesting. And no, I don't need a chill pill... was never angry for even a nano-second.:)

If he enjoys sports, there is almost always a game on in the sports bar. Have you/he considered sailing from San Juan? Only one sea day on those 7 night cruises.

Can my husband get away with wearing black jeans that are not faded or ripped for formal night? He hates to dress up! He will wear a black/dark polo shirt with the jeans. Is that acceptable? Or will the maitre'd turn us away?

No, I'm funny though, see I made you laugh. So, your unfunny post is MOOT!!! Haha

I caught you red handed doing the exact same thing you accused another poster of doing. Now THAT'S funny. :D

I would rather eat a toasted piece of wonder bread with ketchup and a processed cheese slice than another slice from Sorrento's on Royal.

Anyone who rates dcl pizza above other lines (other than Royal) has been seriously snorting too much pixie dust. That stuff is cardboard and no better than cheap frozen pizza.

Funny you should ask. Before Derek Jeter was married he slept with lots of his fans. True story.

Because Carnival allows it. You could just as easily blame Carnival for this. As for why people who don't need them purchase them, they probably like the location. In many instances they probably don't even realize their desired cabin is connecting. Me, I try to avoid them. After having gotten one once as an assigned cabin, I know that you can hear more noise from your neighbors because of the door. I could even hear snoring. I have a hard time believing someone who has stayed in a connecting cabin - next door to strangers - would intentionally purchase one again. This is why I think it is most likely unintentional when someone who doesn't need one purchases one.

How do you know they are intentionally picking a connecting cabin? Could it be that they were assigned a cabin or they chose the last cabin that was away from the elevators or on a side of the ship they prefer and were not even aware it was a connecting cabin?

Because it enables them to catch the interest of customers with less or no expendable income without having to actually lower the price. This is a similar scheme to used car lots putting the "money down" figure on used cars instead of the price.

not a fan personally, its OK when no other option is available.

Cabins are HOT HOT HOT, especially at night. We bring fans and it's still barely tolerable.

Odd that I hear a significant number of posters say this, yet we have never gotten a "hot" cabin. I've thought about this and have concluded that perhaps the answer lies in how warm or cool folks keep their homes. It's just a theory, but for example, we keep the thermostat in our home on 76-77 during hot months, which is quite comfortable to a body acclimated to it, and thusly many restaurants and businesses feel cold to us and every ship cabin we're ever stayed in feels pretty comfortable. Like I said, it's just a theory, but easier to believe than us having been fortunate enough to have never gotten one of those "hot" cabins in over a dozen cruises. Do you think I'm on the right track here, or just very, very lucky in always choosing one of the "cool" cabins?

As you can already tell, you are going to get conflicting answers, since cold or warm is a matter of personal preference. It's almost never to cool for me onboard, but my wife sometimes gets cold, especially at night. She takes a light jacket and/or sweater.

The compensation sounds more than fair to me, since a missed port of call usually only gets you fifty bucks, if that. A three day cruise to nowhere, with half your money back, plus 50% off your next cruise... I'll take it.
