    We were on Harmony the end of April and the WJ was amazing !!!! So much so that we ate there every night.

    Have their booking info and call RCI to do this.

    No...it actually doesn't, they hand them to us and they continue on to helping other's. They certainly don't stand there waiting for us. We then hand them our luggage once we tag them. This is no big deal !!

    We're going to cruise the Mexican Riviera again, leaving Jan 20th and will port stop in Mazatlan Jan 23rd. We've always felt safe taking a taxi to the central market and having a bit of lunch at the Panama Bakery. Of course we'll be playing it by ear and see how things are going then.

    I will completely agree with "calling" the Trip Insurance Store. Steve and his associates are wonderful at getting you a personalized policy that will fit your exact needs. Steve is also a guest contributor at times on Cruise Critic. (888) 407-3854

    During 2022 (47 nights at sea) we spent 12 of those nights on Jewel and 21 nights on Serenade and never ate in the MDR once. It was the WJ for us regardless of which RCI ship we were on.

    We had no problem arriving at the Tampa port from our Panama Canal itinerary this past October. We booked a 2:30pm flight day of arrival and I wish we had booked something earlier.

    I'll 2nd Hyatt Place...our go to pre-cruise hotel...right next to the Harbor Publix shopping center and one of our favorite restaurants "Duffy's" .

    We've recently been in GS's 1052 & 1054 and OS's 1058 on Serenade (mid ship) and had no noise issues at all.

    We just sailed recently in OS's on Serenade (D+) and found the WJ to be just fine.

    The Rubens At The Palace was a great location.

    Usually 45 min to 1 hour depending on traffic. We've used SAS and even though our group of 6 booked them as "private" transportation our particular driver decided to wait for another passenger until I spoke up....so I certainly wasn't happy with this company.

    If you book the train transfer with your cruiseline that arrives at the airport you can easily pick up your luggage (they'll have it in one designated location) and be on your way.

    I'm gonna say I doubt the porter pushed then aside as that tip was fine.. More than likely it got overlooked. We always watch to see ours are loaded on the cart.
  15. Ashland
    Absolutely they do...and if not you must check them.
  16. Ashland
    We never print them out ... We get them (airline type) from one of the terminal porter's...write our cabin # on them...attach them and we're good to go. We've been doing this since RCI stopped mailing tags out (so a long time) and have never had a problem.

    We like a flight around 11am-noon (EWR) to get back to the west coast. You can Uber/Lyft or taxi...we've done both.
  18. Ashland
    Agree...I prefer booking everything directly...no 3rd party needed for us.

    I wish they would add an El Loco Fresh. We'll be back on her again Feb 23-Mar 3, 2024.

    This is exactly what we experienced when we sailed on RCI Mariner from Singapore to Shanghai. In addition to the above the pools were empty. We loved this particular itinerary and wish RCI would offer it again.
  21. Ashland
    Sorry I wasn't "clear" enough
  22. Ashland
    We call the room service line and I start by saying "I'm ordering from the MDR menu"...no problem.

    Barbados

    Ashland replied to Bstein493's topic in St. Lucia

    You have no way of moving your post...but don't worry the Mods probably will. You can just post again on the Barbados thread. No big deal.

    We absolutely have enjoyed a tour with "Glory Tours"...check out this very popular company.
  25. Ashland
    And the dock is right across from town and is an easy walk. Check out "Holy Donuts" a favorite of not only ours but many on these boards. Looking forward to our port stop there again this October.
