At Sea 4Ever Posted November 26, 2013 #3076 Share Posted November 26, 2013 [quote name='Aldeya']We had a pleasure to sail with Captain Nyseter. You are absolutely correct. Captain Olav was THE Captain of the Ship. He was literally everywhere. Very impressive man.[/QUOTE] My DH and I sailed with Captain Nyseter on his last voyage! We returned to the explorer later this year but missed Olav greatly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a beer drinker so didn't notice them on the ship, but they were selling them on Labadee while we were in the security line to get back to the ship.

RBAlbany Posted November 29, 2013 #3083 Share Posted November 29, 2013 With all the different beverage packages, can someone tell me if the beer bags are still available on Explorer? TIA Beer bags on ship though?? Don't think I could drink enough every day to validate drink package. Would love to be able to buy bag, and keep "extras" in the room on ice.

Would love to be able to buy bag, and keep "extras" in the room on ice. My exact reason which prompted me to ask about the beer bags. On our last cruise it awesome having cold beers on ice in our room while enjoying the seas from our balcony...and the beer bags were a great deal! (At the time, beverage packages weren't available). This time around we are going for 9 nights. I'm contemplating a beverage package but I don't think I can drink enough for 9 days straight to validate the package. If the beer bags are still available my dilemma is solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that they were also selling them on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest maddycat Posted November 30, 2013 #3089 Share Posted November 30, 2013 What the heck us a "beer bag"? It's an insulated bag that holds cans/bottles of beer. You use it as a beer cooler.......just add ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dlanco Posted November 30, 2013 #3090 Share Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) Oh so the correct term is "insulated bag" and NOT "beer bag" as has been posted. I couldn't figure out what the heck the fuss was over beer bag, never heard of it before. Edited November 30, 2013 by Dlanco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candleonwater Posted December 1, 2013 #3092 Share Posted December 1, 2013 In the "regular" pool area the smoking area is the entire starboard side, with the exception of 2 or 3 table spaces. I will scan the compasses as soon as possible... Haven't located Day 1 yet tho, may have thrown that one out. Will check on the video poker. They do have it, and a tablemate of mine won pretty big on it - over $2500??? Could you please let me know where the smoking area(s) are on Deck 11?

Shar27 Posted December 1, 2013 #3093 Share Posted December 1, 2013 RCI calls it a beer bag. And it's usually full of beer. It also comes with a bottle opener. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RBAlbany Posted December 2, 2013 #3095 Share Posted December 2, 2013 And it's usually full of beer. It also comes with a bottle opener. :) So the question still has not been answered. Can it be gotten on ship?? There have got to be beer drinkers here who the package is to much for, and has tried to buy a bag on the ship. Please we(allboys27 & myself) need to here fom you desperatly. We want to buy a bag, and not tie on. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highway6161 Posted December 2, 2013 #3096 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I've never seen Beer Bags on Explorer (three trips in three years). I think you can get a 'bucket' of 5 Coronas, on ice, but that's not exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please don't be so desperate for an answer. You'll be on a cruise, beer bags or not. Maybe you should take your own insulated bag and have your cabin steward fill it with ice. Enjoy!

Kilianblythe1180 Posted December 12, 2013 #3099 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Hi, I am going on the EoS in February and was wondering how the Casino works. Do you need cash or is it done on your Room Card like purchases on the ship. I am trying to determine how much cash I need to bring with me and wasn't sure how this worked. Thanks for any information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilianblythe1180 Posted December 12, 2013 #3100 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Also I was wondering if it there were DVD Players in the rooms. I love movies and was wondering if it would be possible to bring DVD's to watch before bed. This is my first cruise and just trying to get all the information I can before going. Thanks again to any responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
