Just off Navigator, 5 night any questions?

[DanieleBelle]

Headed home from a great cruise to Costa Maya and Cozumel. If you have any questions I'd be happy to help. FYI we had brand new MDR menus. I'll write a little review shortly and try to post them. Overall the meals were pretty good.

Did you see any drink cards for sale, and if so, how many days into the cruise?

Yes drink cards were $75 plus gratuities and offered on day 2.

Thanks, I'm starting to see reports now of the cards appearing earlier in the cruise.

Yes I too was surprised to see it so early, especially since it was a holiday week (Presidents' Day).

Glad to hear about the drink cards appearing on day 2. Only two weeks until our turn.

 

Were they offering any specialty dining deals on the ship? Did you try any?

 

Looking forward to your review.

Just the 3, 4, or 5 night packages. I never saw any % off at a specific restaurant. We did not do any specialty dining since the menus were new in the MDR and we wanted to try them out.

Did you feel that your mattress was too firm?

Was there a new kids menu in the mdr please?

[DanieleBelle]

Yes! But we were prepared and brought backpackers air mattresses which helped greatly. They were cheap from Amazon about $14 each and were very easy to pack. The bed had 6 (yes 6!) mattress pads on it when we arrived, and even then it was hard as a rock and sunk in the middle.

I'm not really sure. It had all the normal fare on it, chicken fingers, hamburger, pizza, grilled chicken, minute steak, pasta with meat sauce.

Just how new is "new"?

I was told by our server this was the first cruise with the menus. The wait staff had to come in 15 minutes early each night to sample the dishes on that nights menu.

So, what was your opinion on the new menus?

[luvscruising2007]

What time is early dining and what time is late dining? Thank you.

Overall they were good. I missed the cold soups but I know they weren't terribly popular. The quality was good and the portions I enjoyed as they were on the small side so I didn't feel stuffed after dinner. I posted the menus in another thread with my review, maybe someone can link to that thread?

5:30 and 8. Even with ordering dessert with the rest of the meal at he beginning, it still took about 1:45-2 hours for dinner and it was just the 3 of us at the table.
