frank808 Posted August 6, 2017 #926 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Yeah, I thought that was a funny quote also. ;) Kind of like when we are in Hawaii where the locals hate it when the tourists talk about being back in the states. :rolleyes::rolleyes: What we are part of the united states? I thought we were the kingdom of hawaii!?! [emoji3] [emoji3] Sent from my SM-T217S using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji3] [emoji3] Sent from my SM-T217S using Tapatalk LOL!! :D Yeah, so funny to hear them talk to the locals as "when we go back to the states". Always want to ask them what they consider the 50th state to be. :p 1959...A very good year! Assuming you are from Hawaii...so beautiful...good choice!

frank808 Posted August 6, 2017 #928 Share Posted August 6, 2017 What if Royal did away with the lounges and just gave Diamond Members the Complimentary Premium Beverage Package and load up 4 free Specialty Dining Restaurant nights on short cruises of 7 nights and less and 8 for 7 nights and more and if they are not used transfer it to OBC or have a choice more OBC, Free Excursions etc sort of like the Celebrity 1-2-3 GO but just for Diamond and Above. For Emerald give 4 free Premium Drinks per night and 2 Specialty Restaurant Nights on 7 night cruise and 4 on more than 7 nights or OBC tour etc. So what would d+ and pinnacle get?

Yes i was born on oahu and have called this beautiful state my home for the past 46 years. I try to say "you mean when we go back to the continental us." I still get questioned sometimes if we have electricity in our grass shacks that we live in! I tell them of course, how would i charge my smart phone?

I am so looking forward to visiting your beautiful state again soon. :) Grass shack!! :p:D LOL!! We actually get funny looks when tourists there ask us where we are from while we are visiting there. "Why would you come here from Florida??!!" We tell them we are tired of the alligators. ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But since my wife and I have lived here all our lives we have "island fever". Love seeing the continental united states and abroad. Well glad you are coming back to hawaii soon. Number one source of revenue now is tourism! You fly here to hawaii for vacation and we fly to florida to cruise.

Welcome! :D Yeah, we know a bit about tourism here in Florida also. Not just the cruise ports, but that mouse in Orlando has something to do with it also. :p;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Bastard Posted March 10, 2018 #935 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Will be traveling solo on one of my future cruises and will definitely ask the maitre D for this option. Thanks for chiming in, Bob! Traveling Solo is the only way to cruise. So many people that you meet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
