I am super nervous as my June 2023 booking is gone. I had an aft wrap and the long side balcony next to it. We booked about 2 years out to get this. And I know Spirit's wraps are suites.
We had the exact rooms booked for June 2020 and Covid cancelled them.
I'm feeling the same way! We had an aft balcony, the aft wrap next to it, and another balcony room one room away. This is a re-booking on a covid cancelled cruise for my son's graduation. We cruise on January 14, 2023. I'm still nervously waiting to get our room assignments. I did note that there are 6 fewer aft balcony rooms on the Spirit compared to the Freedom. I really don't want to lose our room configuration...

My husband and I are on this trip! We saw the post on facebook at 6 a.m. and just decided to go, spur of the moment. We've got a balcony room on deck 7 and are so excited to spend our 25th wedding anniversary on this trip!

Oh no! What’s going on with the Vista? 😱
Propulsion issues. Our cruise was to leave on Saturday, but now is pushed back to a Sunday departure. We don't know where we're going or when our cruise will end!! We should know more tomorrow...fingers crossed!

Wildra, thank you so much for this amazing trip report! I love your reviews! This is helping to keep me sane while I await word on our Vista cruise this weekend. If you don't mind, I'd love one of your special prayers to ensure that our cruise does sail!!! ❤️

Thanks in advance for reading this, and I apologize if this has been answered in the multitude of Bottomless Bubbles/Cheers threads. I promise, I did search, and couldn't find the answer. 🙂
My daughter LOVES the non-alcoholic drinks that the Alchemy Bar Mixologists make. Will purchasing the Bottomless Bubbles package allow her to get these drinks for free or does she still have to pay for them? We almost went broke after she found the Alchemy Bar on our last trip!

Following along! Headed on a Journeys cruise in 11 days!

Loving the review! We've been on the Dream twice, and really like it.
-
I'd be interested in trying these, but I hope that the Alchemists are not the ones getting these ready. In my limited experience at the Alchemy bar, they are usually pretty busy, and it takes time to make great drinks. I want them to be able to concentrate on that and not food prep also.

We were on the Dream in a Cove Balcony in April of 2017 for two weeks. LOVED IT!! We had a room underneath Guest Services, not the Galley, so it was very quiet. It was also far enough back that we didn't get a ton of spray from the front of the boat, but we still did get some. It was very nice to have the shade, and I didn't think it was as windy as normal balconies can be. We never had any issues with the balconies being closed up. We wouldn't hesitate to book a Cove again!

Following along as I love your reviews and we're looking at booking an Alaskan cruise coming up soon!!
-
Great review, thanks for all the work!!
-
Subscribed! We're planning an Alaskan cruise way out in 2022, and I'm always looking for ideas and reviews!
-
I'm just starting to plan an Alaskan cruise and stumbled onto your review! LOVE IT! I can't wait until you get back to hear how your trip went!

We're going on the 14 day partial Panama Canal transit in December. Does anyone have an idea when the formal nights might be for this? We've heard there could be up to 3 of them! Thanks in advance!
-
Loving the review, can't wait to hear about the Chef's Table! Keep the drinks flowing!
-
Did you venture into the Alchemy Bar at all? Just wondering who was on staff and how they were? Thanks, I'm really enjoying the review!
-
So, someone help me with this question... Why would anyone on the boats that are digital only order the Pixels Max package? If you can only get digital files of your pictures, doesn't that make the Max package worthless on those digital only boats? I've not been on a digital only boat, so I'm not 100% sure how that works.

Pics are working now, thanks! I'm enjoying the review!

We did this on our recent cruise on the Dream. We really liked it, even though it was as some others have described - you are attending events to find out who isn't the killer. Yes, the presentations were tied with Bingo, or something else, but the Clue presentation was always at the beginning of the event, and we never felt pressured to stay for anything. It was something new and fun, in my opinion.
-
The beds are pushed together but they put something over the "seam" between them. We have never had any problem with the comfort across the middle of the bed.
Agreed.

Following as we're debating the same thing!!

We were booked on a cruise that stopped at Cozumel when then introduced the Cozumel Plus promotion. I was excited to think we'd have longer in port!! I checked our itinerary and our time in port had not changed a bit...
-
Every time we've rented a cabana, we've had 7 people. We STILL have food and drinks left! You will only get amenities (floats, flippers, etc.) for four, but we found that to be no problem. I always book for the set 4 person cabana, but our family shares it.
I agree! We've had 8 people in a cabana before, and still had food and drinks leftover. We don't ask for any amenities for more than 4 people, but there is plenty to go around. The cabanas are well worth the money you spend. HMC in a cabana is heavenly!!

We're leaving for a B2B on the Dream in a couple of weeks, so I really appreciate your thoughts! Thanks so much!

My bookings have been updated. The result isn't good. We went from an aft balcony, the aft wrap next to it, and another balcony room one room away to 3 different rooms on 3 different decks. The balcony is still a balcony, but the aft is gone - supposedly upgraded to a Premium Balcony room. I don't know if I consider that an upgrade. Yes, it's a bigger balcony, but it's not an Aft Balcony. Our Aft Wrap was upgraded to an Ocean Suite, but at the expense of all of our rooms being split up so badly. I'm so disappointed. I've called in to the Resolution Team, and they can do nothing.
