  1. Got it. A02. Unfortunately, since I had that latte, I was up til 3.
  2. Mine is there: My To-do List Online Check-In for booking #XXXXXX Available on May 3, 2024 I'm having a latte to stay up til midnight to check in.
  3. Love a road trip to a cruise!! We're flying for the first time in quite a while in a couple of weeks. Seeing your road trip makes me a little jealous 😉. Looking forward to the rest of your review!
  4. I definitely will. I'm going to have my son video it. BTW, I'm not talking about little kids, the grandkids are teenagers. One asked to go on a cruise with us for his birthday. We are beyond excited.
  5. We have 10:30 arriving time. The port shuttle from our hotel only has 2 runs, 9:30 and 1:30. My son is driving down from Orlando and there seems to be a lot of construction along the way so he wants to get a super early start. The plan is to do a geo cashe for the kids to follow and we'll be the the "treasure". We'll be in constant contact with DS via texts.
  6. Haha. I will be wearing a big floppy hat and sunglasses. I'm not so worried about them seeing me, it's the hubs that will probably give it away.
  7. It does make sense, thank you. I'm sure we'll be constantly texting with my son to try to coordinate things.
  8. Another silly question, how visible is this from the general waiting area? We are trying to not be seen.
  9. Does anyone have a picture of the platinum area?
  10. I was pretty sure I wouldn't be able to but DS insisted I find out.
  11. We have used Trip Advisor for many excursions in various ports. Just be mindful of the times of return to port. We always opt for very early start times with getting back to port a few hours before all aboard time. A lot of excursions guarantee timely return to port.
  12. We're cruising with our son and his family. I'll be doing the platinum check in two days early. Our bookings are linked. He asked if I can check them in, too. I don't think so, but I told him I would check. Is this doable?
  13. We haven't sailed out of Miami since turning platinum. Is there a separate waiting area? We will be sailing with my son and family and we are surprising the grandkids, they don't know we'll be sailing with them. We don't want them to see us before we board.
  14. I really don't have a favorite entree. There are a couple desserts I like. Grand Mariner souffle and Bitter and Blanc. I get these every cruise.
  15. I've seen this on the menu but have never tried it. It looks really good. Can you tell them how you want the steak cooked? The above is just a touch rarer than I like.
  16. I usually bring my own hair dryer, but we are flying this time and I'm trying to pack light. Does anyone know if the hairdryers on the Magic are the kind that you have to hold the button down for it to work?
  17. It must have been so thrilling to be that close to these majestic animals. It almost seems like they were putting on a show for you.
  18. I had similar experiences on the Magic. I was pre-op on a knee scooter. The staff in the buffet were very helpful carrying my plates and drinks.
  19. After seeing the gold by the inch on several cruises, I broke down and bought a bracelet and charm for my granddaughter. What a POS. I don't remember how much I paid, but what ever I paid, it was too much.
  20. Off topic, I attended a couple of tapings of Family Feud last month. Steve Harvey is hilarious. I sure wouldn't want to be the person to do the editing for airing. Sorry to highjack your post.
  21. People do this? It's never occurred to me, but it will going forward 😉
  22. They price match alcohol. I brought them a picture of rum from port that was a couple $s cheaper and the ship matched it.
