I agree with Godfrey. I have went with him several times and it is a great excursion!

I have always used my phone in ports on cruises. I have Verizon and before leaving home I always add the Global Services plan. It makes it easier and more affordable. Sending texts usually cost .50 and receiving .05. If you have an iphone and turn off the data or only turn on when needed will save too. Sometimes with all the country codes etc it is easier to text family and have them call me. The plan can be prorated for a week and it is very cheap. I have an elderly mother so I have to be reachable. Verizon will even email you a handy little sheet with all the info.

We are sailing next week and I am thinking of booking the next cruise while on board. I have never did this before. Can anyone tell me what kind of deals you received when you do this?

Thank you lostdart1

Thank you. All of our other ports we are the only ship.

I saw that we will be in St. Thomas with three other ships. Does anyone know how crazy busy this will be? Want to go to Magens Bay.

I am with you Truluv, we have cruised many times and after seeing the islands, I love the resorts. We use Resort for a Day. I haven't been to this location so looking forward to it. Thanks

Can anyone tell me the cost of a taxi to the Hilton for a group of 4?

I am thinking the end of April......my cruise time!

kaybeebee,

Remember you can use OBC for your week long tips too. Any drinks, shopping, casino?

We are all adults and still love to decorate our door. I buy the putty stuff that teachers use and it rolls right off when pulled off. I LOVE to do it because anytime you are coming down the hall and ALL the doors look the same, it makes yours standout!

We booked through Resort For A Day. We will be going in April to the Hilton.

I was able to email and call the Marriott. The day room sounds like a normal room. The day room is what is stated above, 2 adults and 2 children. We have 4 adults so we are doing the day passes.

getting excited, we leave in 28 days on Valor! Nice review

We leave in 32 days!

I am a diet soda drinker- There is no Diet Dr Pepper on the island. Very doubtful you will find Diet Mt Dew either. Anything diet other than Coke or Pepsi is a bonus!

Thank you. I was guessing that to be the case. I have seen the Walgreens number posted so I may try to call them when it gets closer. I don't mind but I have a sister who thinks she has to have them for the week.

I have see a few posts about places to buy sodas near the port. One person was looking for Diet Mt Dew and they couldn't find any. Can anyone tell me if they have seen Diet Dr Pepper? We would like to buy either for the cruise.

I have been to Freeport and Nassau. I enjoyed both. The view of Atlantis in Nassau is wonderful. Enjoy! I really liked the Red Frog Pub and the kids will love the water slide on Magic.

Western~Cayman Islands, Jamaica, Cozumel. I had been to all three ports before too.

We went on the Magic last March. Beautiful ship and we had 3 to a porthole room.

I have never been offered an upgrade or upsell. I would LOVE an upgrade and would be interested in an upsell but I have never been called. I always wonder when reading the boards if they target a specific port or part of the US.

My first cruise was the Paradise and I picked it because it was the first No Smoking Cruise at the time. You were fined if they caught you.

Loved everything about the Magic. The Red Frog Pub, and the serenity area are a few favorites. Oh and Punchliners was a blast!

When we were on Carnival Magic a crew member pointed out to someone near us that if they ever got turned around on the ship (front/back) to look at the tiles. They were designed so that the triangle points in the colors always pointed forward. Has anyone else ever heard or noticed this? Just curious?

I just emailed MArriott for our date March 4th and they are booked. It's a good idea to email ahead of time.

I have been on their website and I do not see an email address. I am going in April and would like to go there. Do you still have their email address?
