    Agree...don't use a debit card. I've been on several RCI cruises (recently) and they stopped asking for the physical card some time ago. Our most recent cruise a week ago my entire extended family was checked in using my credit card and no one asked any of them at check in to see my card. Agree...with the above that her mom could get an additional credit card for her.

    Well I can say our extended family that included our 2 grandsons just got off Icon on May 25th loved it. We had two Surfside Suites and saw all the shows and ate at most all the comp eateries and had an amazing time. FYI for those that care...Mario was on our cruise. Not that that made any difference.

    Include Icon on this list.

    You might also consider a private shared shuttle service from many that offer service from FLL-POM. Like Ride SAS, JiffyJeff, South Florida Shuttles etc.

    Thanks for the link to this article. We just got off Icon on the 26th.

    You can ask for carton of milk during the dinner hours also in the WJ...we sometimes do.

    Hard to compete with the food on Icon....it was just amazing. Lobster in the WJ...oh my.

    We just got off the Icon (May 25th) and agree with the above 11am to 11pm with happy hour between 5-8pm. However perhaps it's just me but I didn't actually care for the set up of the lounge and Coastal Kitchen sharing basically the same space.

    For a Miami hotel try Hampton Inn Suites Blue Lagoon. Comp hotel shuttle from MIA. For a Fort Lauderdale hotel try Hyatt Place. Check rates with ValueTrips when their schedule comes out end of this year for reservations in 2025. Renting a car if you're a Costco member check out their online rental prices.

    Just get them from a porter and either they will or you can just write your new cabin number on them.

    Doubt it will be "free" for the length of your cruise. You might opt for a stay/park/cruise option that hotels offer. Most will include a shuttle to/from port.

    They'll be 6 of us and 6 large suitcases and assorted backpacks. We would probably need 2 xl Ubers so the price seems pretty close for us to just use the hotel shuttle....and might be easier also.

    Check to see if the credit card used to place the bid has been charged.

    I just think RCI should give free internet to GS and above fleetwide not just certain classes of their ships.

    We've had extended family who used the pack-n-play before and yes their the same size as the regular ones which are approx 28x39. Just an FYI....bring your own fitted sheets for these. And do reserve one in conjunction with your booking.

    From MIA to the hotel comp shuttle. We just (March) stayed at the Hampton Inn Suites Blue Lagoon and used their port shuttle ($14.00pp) from hotel to POM. We'll be doing the same thing next Friday.

    Just do a mock cruise booking is the easiest way I do it. Specific ship, date & itinerary.

    PE is one of the easiest ports to use a taxi. No sense in looking for your Uber/Lyft.
  19. Ashland
    None for us. We don't do the beach when cruising. We can do that at home any day.
  20. Ashland
    Yes...Mexican Riviera from my home port San Pedro Ca. 7 nights. Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan & Cabo. This is the one we've done many times over the years and continue to do every year.
  21. Ashland
    I considered this hotel once and reviews weren't very good.
  22. Ashland
    Not the poster but usually the reason is flight costs FLL vs MIA. I know it usually is for many.
  23. Ashland
    Yes...Port Everglades. You can either use Uber/Lyft or they'll be many taxis in the line up ready to go. For a taxi just make sure it's metered and should be around $12.00 per taxi. This is a quick easy trip about 10-15 min or so depending on traffic.
  24. Ashland
    You're very welcome...Best of luck with whatever you end up opting for.

    Not sure where you researched but their shuttle couldn't be easier to spot. Our wait was short. http://www.hamptoninnmiamiairport.com/shuttle.html
