Rare alrichards4003 Posted February 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Pre-cruise DH (45) and I (44) were going on our 17th cruise, we had been on Oasis in 2009. We debated between Epic and Oasis, but the Crown Loft Suite sold me. Prior to the cruise I purchased the drink package, the Jamaica excursion, the zip line for DH, the shows and the 4 night dining package which I cancelled a few weeks before and booked the individual restaurants. When I got the email from the concierge, I booked a standard cabana. I also put a deposit on Mr. Sanchos, but it was not through RC. We live in Tampa, so we drove to Port Canaveral. We are parents to two beagles, two cats and a turtle. We now have a great dog walking company that sends us journals with pictures after all the walks, which was great since our internet went down the night before we left rendering our security system videos unavailable. Before we left the handsome devils were unimpressed we were going on another vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare alrichards4003 Posted February 20, 2017 Author #2 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Port Canaveral not the most organized, but we made it to the Suite waiting area, we were only there about 20 minutes. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare alrichards4003 Posted February 20, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted February 20, 2017 When we signed in we received the Zoom codes for internet access with our sea cards. Our first stop was Johnny Rockets for lunch. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare alrichards4003 Posted February 20, 2017 Author #8 Share Posted February 20, 2017 My husband is a smoker. I am not, but it means we become aware of the smoking spots and he always wants a cigarette after eating. We went to the Mast bar on 16, he could have a cigarette and I could have my inaugural adult beverage. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare alrichards4003 Posted February 20, 2017 Author #9 Share Posted February 20, 2017 The rooms aren't available until 1, it was about 12:40, I suggested we go to the suite lounge. We stayed in suites on NCL, so I think you tend to make comparisons, we also sail mostly on NCL and Carnival, so there are comparisons and each line has their strengths and weaknesses. Meaning DH wanted to know why we couldn't go to the room if we had a suite like NCL. I told him just because.

Rare alrichards4003 Posted February 21, 2017 Author #10 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I told my husband that we had a suite, but let the loft be a surprise and it was. When he walked in he asked where the bed was, and I told him to look upstairs. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
