  1. We are driving to Port Canaveral for our cruise that sails on January 5th. (Adventure of the Seas) We are staying at a nearby hotel on the 4th and then driving to park at the cruise terminal on the 5th. (Hotel no longer offers extended parking as an option) It has been awhile since we last sailed out of Port Canaveral. What terminal are we likely to sail out of and what would be the closed parking structure to park our car for the 8 day cruise. Looking to get that secured before we loose that option... 😋 Thanks in advance.
  2. Sailing on Adventure in January 2024. (Similar ship to Voyager - no?) What can the collective wisdom tell us about the Diamond club and Crown lounges and their locations? We will be staying a Junior Suite. (Yes on the hump - starboard 😁) We will be getting the DBP. (We are leveling up to D+ on this cruise and understand that we don't really get the d+ benefits until after the cruise)
  3. Once was on a cruise that had a 'small' group from the Jewish community that was celebrating a bar mitzvah. There was over 600 in that group!!!. Overall not a bad experience...just don't be where they are and you will be fine...
  4. we use this on every cruise we take... YMMV but a solid basic offering. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QV13WLN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&th=1
  5. or this as well. Just avoid having a long pig-tale that would resemble an extension cord... 🙂 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082FJXVW6/ref=sspa_dk_detail_1?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B082FJXVW6&pd_rd_w=iloCM&content-id=amzn1.sym.08ba9b95-1385-44b0-b652-c46acdff309c&pf_rd_p=08ba9b95-1385-44b0-b652-c46acdff309c&pf_rd_r=5PANCCW913QSZP5MAV5Y&pd_rd_wg=AewPX&pd_rd_r=8824f94b-b43d-44ca-84d9-6c3c0f3fcb83&s=electronics&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9kZXRhaWxfdGhlbWF0aWM&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUE2SE80OUc4SlRQNjAmZW5jcnlwdGVkSWQ9QTA1NTUyNTcyNEU2RjZVQ1BDUUExJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTAyOTM2NTQyNURYSEs4WFpLRVNaJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfZGV0YWlsX3RoZW1hdGljJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==
  6. I just tried looking up a 6-8 night cruise on ANY Oasis class ship with NO date range and it can back with NO sailing found! Is their Database getting a brain transfer?
  7. When do you project that Alaska sailings will open up for 2025???
  8. Only on the Oasis class do you need to worry about getting a balcony room guarantee that MIGHT face the internal part of the ship. (Board walk or Central Park neighborhoods)
  9. Anyone have any 'tried and true' favorites' for hotels in the Port Canaveral area? Flying into Orlando and would like to get 'closer to the cruise port on the day we fly in...it is just our way... Looking also for day of cruise transport that is offered by the hotel.
  10. We have done the Boardwalk balcony's before - never again after two failed attempts. Both time we found it to be unpredictable once you get past 11 pm for the noise level... We had to call security several time on one cruise because of the extreme loud music being played by some young cruisers on their boom-box - it was 1 am! Security came to OUR door and basically said 'what's the problem'... we invited them into our room (which the balcony door was open) and their suggestion was to close the door...There WAS a LARGE contingency of Brazilin teenagers on the one cruise that seemed to NOT need any sleep...They seemed to be the major cause of the noise...They were 'dealt with' but I fear that they just found other hangouts. And, yes they can be hot during the day...
  11. Don't forget to get CHAIR clips if you9 have a balcony...The wind some time has no mercy. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09RWQR9JG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  12. At under $65 pp...I might do it again...otherwise, a hard no.
  13. Speaking of pretty good milk shakes...I can't resist.
  14. Rule #1 - Life ain't fair - get over yourself...
  15. We are slated to be on the Adventure in several months. What are the pro and cons? What are the must do's on the ship? What are things to be aware of? What wisdom can you share?
  16. We are on this sailing...got the 8 night for about $2800 including taxes, prepaid gratuities and travel insurance. We are booked in a Junior Suite!
  17. We have been on all of the Oasis class ships....how will our experience be on a 'smaller' ship?
  18. we did it at $69 PP...Worth it but NOT at a penny more - it was OK but not great.
  19. I have been to the Bionic bar- many time on several ships...it is cool for the first 5 minutes...then it totally wears off. Personally, I would be glad to see the Champaign Bar stay there...better views and seating and use of space...
  20. We are 344 days out from sailing and still NOTHING is available to purchase under the "Plan your Cruise" (Except for a few lame shore excursions. Specifically any of the Beverage packages, internet, etc... Is that normal? l thought on other cruises we could start at about 1 year out... Hummm
  21. such first world problems - you are cruising, relax...
