What a bummer

KPM I need a huge favor. I was to post the happy hour special from Sabor and didn't get back. While I was certainly there during happy hour, with the drink package, they just ring it up at $13 and zero it out. I don't know what the offerings is without the package. Post the special pricing please?? I think that's the only question I didn't get answered!! Maybe you could also have a Grand margarita with a Grand Marnier float for me too!!!

We are at the gate at the airport. One huge advantage of Star Class is being escorted off the ship to the front of the line. So either wait at the airport or wait in line exiting the cruise ship.

Nice. I always try to get this picture but I often get stopped. That line up might be for the next yard sale table.

 

 

 

Had my eye on that fan!!

I loved this live review it was the best. You made me wanna read what your family was up to all throughout the day. And you made me wanna get the alcohol package though i don't drink often. You got my fire back from vacation planning fatigue for my first cruise on RCL. I hope your next cruise you do another review. Have a safe trip back home and thanks for letting us in on your vacation.

For dinner, Boatyard restaurant which is across 17th street from your hotel is fabulous. Very quick walk.

And so it continues for Laura, Darrell and the girls......

 

Look at what they make us look at in the distance from Gate 1 at the airport—-the Harmony OTS. Nothing like rubbing it in that it seems so close but yet so far away.

Flannbarr and L1211, you two need to sail together all the time with joint reviews. This has been very enjoyable.

 

L1211, did you get the burn cream for your hubby. From that photo above the AT it looks like he might be needing it tonight.

 

Beware, Andrew is pretty fun to sail with; though on Oasis class, he tends to be a climb from others. ;)

 

I was a naysayer of the Oasis Class when they first talked about her being constructed. I had mainly sailed on Princess with a couple Radiance Class sailings. The first time I stepped foot onto Oasis I was hooked, 30 seconds in and 20 steps from the gangway. We had her booked again before we disembarked the ship. I’m not sure if you can say the same but this Class of Ship is a temptress for me. She keeps luring me back.

 

FWIW, I was a convert since I first stepped foot on Voyager when she was new. Haven't done HOTS (and obviously SOTS), but have nearly all the others.

 

Glad y'all had a good time!

I asked that question. I just figured you were busy having fun! But thanks for remembering!

When I ask a question on a review, I don’t always expect an answer. I know people are trying to enjoy their vacation and the review can take time from that. So, if I don’t get an answer, I don’t get upset. Usually someone here on CC has the information anyway.

KPM, if you think of it and can post the info, that would be much appreciated!!

L1211, thanks again for the awesome review!! Take care and have safe travels home!

Hey there

They do have valet for luggage readily available.

 

Mobile Pass is an app you download and scan in your passport by using the camera on your phone. Then, when you are in the port, you just answer a few questions and it gives you scan codes to fly through customs. The line was wayyyyy shorter for mobile pass so would have cut about 30 minutes out of our exit.

 

Enjoy your upcoming cruise!!

Thank you for the LIVE review! Enjoyed it! We sail the Eastern Caribbean in June! 10 weeks from today! Took lots of notes from your review! Y’all seemed to have done most everything!! Hoping we will be able to even with 3 little ones! Hopefully they will love the kids club as much as they have in the past! So far we have Sabor (as a family) and Chops (date night) booked for our first and last nights! Really considering wonderland now too! At least for dessert! Thanks again!

Oh Laura, where are you? Same question for Genie Valentina. Sitting in a hotel in Queens and trust me that there is no genie here whatsoever.
