I think is is a BF category. Not too concerned about where it is.

Has anyone had experience with the balconies on the Prima that have the slide thru them? We are sailing on the Viva with a guaranteed balcony and will probably get one of those. Wondering if it is a big deal or a lot of nothing. The cruise is port intensive so I doubt we will be out there much.

We are going to Lisbon 2 days early for our October cruise and need to know if anyone can recommend a case service or driver for the day.

It’s free.

So do we have to have a Covid shot within 270 days of visiting Spain? I thought we were done with this. Does anyone have any knowledge of this to share? We are sailing October to Spain and kinda need to know. Thanks

We had Vibe passes on Epic and Escape. Only drawback was no full food service and the wind. Always lots of seats and drinks. Staff was great.

We needed 10 points to go platinum when we cruised in November. To our surprise there was an envelope in our cabin with the platinum awards certificate in it which included the 2 speciality dinners, in addition to the two free for sea, an additional bag of laundry and a couple of other things. So maybe it can happen to you.

The easy answer to this is to provide a venue inside the walled city for those guests. BTW, Syds plays old rock and roll noise, far below the usual Brahms and Beethoven music that I have heard coming from their palatial cabin estates. Often I have stood outside the main gate, paper and#2 pencil hoping for an autograph or maybe a used towel. This spring I will make another attempt to escape the toils of the fields, put on my best, albeit tatterd clothes and journey into the city to try again to win the heart of a noble lass so that I may marry into the kingdom and one day be able to walk the golden gangplank and look down at all the others as I board 20 minutes early. ( key music, “To dream the impossible dream”). But alas I am probably doomed to my life as a surf. My wife will be from the farm, with hands that could palm a bowling ball due to many years of extracting milk from goats to put in the tea of the Haven people. (This is a joke people, don’t get all fired up)

I agree. Lol

Yeah but what about the CHAIR HOGS and and and the SMOKE from the casino and and and noise from the elevators, etc.etc

I’m all for that. One question is, where on GSC can you smoke? My experience is cigars either attract or dispel people, there’s no middle ground and I being the non confrontational person that I am, especially on a cruise, don’t want to annoy people.

Maybe Bill Gates

We laminate ours and didn’t have a problem.

Here’s a couple of posts from yesterday. Might be a hit or miss as to whether or not they will have something. With 10 days of fun I don’t know if I will have any room for my salsa outfit.

Are there normally any activities on board for Halloween?

Here’s a question for all. I found out the hard way. Had a flat and went to get the spare but after 5 years, it too was low on air. When was the last time you checked your spare for the correct tire pressure? Just sayin. You might be surprised.

Attaboy

We were on the Getaway last October. Saw the quartet, great show. Syd Norman’s is also a great venue. The band that played the Fleetwood Mac tribute was awesome but you have to be there early to get a seat. We were there during Covid restrictions so there was a limited amount of seating and hopefully that won’t be the case as we are sailing again this October on that ship. If you can’t get in maybe you can sit outside on the waterfront and listen but a great show. Also burn the floor was also great, talented dancers, and good music.

Guess there was no reason to cancel the first cruise in August.

Let’s face it folks, this is now in the hands of the lawyers. Obviously the bulk of those getting sick is over. No more cruise ships making the news of horrible treatment of the sick, no more refusals to dock, in other words, no more headlines. Now the lawyers have to figure out when to reduce the requirements to avoid the most loss. When somebody goes on a ship and gets Covid will they attempt to sue because the cruise line stopped this testing. You know the answer to that. I believe.cruise lines have done all they can to keep us safe. Someone ALWAYS gets sick on a cruise. NCL and the others have to protect themselves from the sue happy people lying in wait.

I don’t understand the second part of your comment. Could you explain what you mean?

I’d give a big thumbs up but I might get sent back to CC jail.

There are air movers inside the cigar lounge which suck up most of the smoke from a cigar. Occasionally when someone opens the door, a little might seep out into the area by the bar where the ships air processing moves it out. If you are concerned about your cabin perhaps move to the bow or stern and avoid it.

YEA U WILL LOOOSE IT BUT U CAN GET BACK MAYBE

Masks have ended. Covid testing is going to end soon, as it apparently has started already. Sooner or later we can stop talking about this and focus on the more prevalent subjects that have been swept aside and forgotten about. Things that have caused major stress and angst and ruined many a vacation. Of course I’m talking about chair hogs. Those horrible people who dare to reserve a chair and just walk away. And don’t forget about those who inhale unnecessary carcinogens and then spew it into the air for others to be forced to suffer the lack of fresh air. Oh the humanity. Please let’s get past this dying pandemic and return to the glory days of old when we can again divide the masses over the tried and true subjects that really matter.
