  1. We always bring our laptop. We have no concerns leaving it in our cabin without feeling it needs to be in the safe.
  2. Not interested in infinite balcony if it's anything like Celebrity Edge offers. Give me a regular balcony.
  3. You can try the transportation company we used this past April "Cruise Control" As far as a rental car if you're a member have you tried Costco.
  4. How are casino winnings over a certain amount handled ? Someone on our Panama Canal cruise a couple of weeks ago won 10k.
  5. RCI has plenty of beach towels and tote bags. Since my first sailing this past January and my most recent one two weeks ago....so 7 total cruises to date. I have 8 tote bags and 10 beach towels...Yikes! I even have tried going to the LA onboard but that made no difference...they continue to give me what they have onboard.
  6. Just at LAX this past Sunday and saw several companies with signs and luggage trolly's waiting to assist their passengers at the baggage carousel.
  7. I'll give another option "Orlando" dark or try the clear...great to use when you want to keep the white color in whatever you're mixing/baking. Also the real vanilla Costco Kirkland brand is amazing.
  8. Harmony is our favorite when we cruise with the extended family. I think prices will be over the top on Icon for the suite categories we like to sail in.
  9. The show in the Aqua Theater and the ice skating show is usually a must.
  10. On our Serenade 13 night Panama Canal this month the all access tour was offered to book on day 5.
  11. We don't care to share a dining table other than when we cruise with family. Cabin category is of utmost importance to us and unfortunately on some class of RCI ships the suites are under public areas. Oh well...we sail for the itinerary not the ship.
  12. We haven't had any enforcement of checkin times this year at San Pedro, San Juan, Port Canaveral, Amsterdam or Vancouver BC.
  13. They should provide more umbrellas for these stadium type seatings.
  14. We've never had any problem just showing up to any production show we wanted to see once onboard regardless of ship.
  15. Interesting comments...this just reinforces that this itinerary isn't one to add to my list.
  16. We just did the 13 night Panama Canal on Serenade and wasn't excited about the entertainment.
  17. We did a B2B on Explorer in an OS in March and the most enjoyed benefit at least for us was the cabin itself.
  18. Not all of us...Prices will be off the chart !!!
  19. Yes agree the crowding can certainly vary. So many D's on our recent PC itinerary on Serenade they used the Viking Crown lounge for the DL, the usual DL for Pinnacles and the SL for suites. We could also use both SL/DL but there was never a seat in the DL...too bad as of course it had the better sea views. The SL was pretty empty nightly. 116 Pinnacles 326 D+ 357 D's
  20. Hyatt Place off 17th Street. Try booking with ValueTrips or directly on Hyatt website sign up for membership.
  21. Just off RCI Serenade in Tampa at the end of our cruise. There are regular shuttles going to TPA $10.00 pp. Easy to find as you exit the port terminal they have signs offering this transportation. Couldn't have been easier and it was our first time there too.
  22. You'll have comp drinks in the SL during happy hours...DL no comp drinks you'll have to use your 4 drink vouchers or use them anytime during the day at most all bars. So easy to figure out what lounge during what hours will work out for you.
  23. Hmmm...How nice would it be to have some San Pedro to Hawaii sailings...just saying !
  24. Nay...safe but that's not the point now. Prior to covid we used to take the bus (across from Walmart) from the cruise port to the Malacon. Now our last two port stops there (as recently as 2 weeks ago) we took a taxi shuttle ($5.00 pp) they were lined up just outside the new PV terminal...lot's of cruisers doing this as the shuttles hold about 8 people. When you want to return just hail down a taxi to get back to the port...again $10.00.
