rdh rules Posted July 24, 2021 #28 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Thanks for all the info! I was wondering about the mid internet package as we've had the social one and couldn't do anything without it taking an hour. We've never been on the Horizon or similar and are excited for a bigger ship. So many food choices!!! 42 days and I'll be looking at that beautiful water!

Mike - Does it feel less crowded at 70% or does it feel the same? Also, you mentioned you purchased the mid-level wi-fi. How well has it worked for you?

cruise to live Posted July 24, 2021 #30 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Thank you for your review. Something that I am too lazy to do. When you got off the ship, were there taxis available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you got off the ship, were there taxis available? There were, but we did a Lyft which was 18 to the airport… BTW, we did go to Bimini as our 3rd port, and had a great beach day. Just leave the shop , hop onto the tram, and exit at 3rd stop. Totally free. You can rent chairs and umbrella although I didn’t get price. It is beach 360 , which they sell as an excursion onboard. But we wound up there for free, and spent the day in the water anyway, there is a restaurant there. Quesadillas, jerk wings and 2 cokes for $48 including tip. Highlight of the day, was having to stingrays come visit us while swimming in the water. Awesome day, so happy we decided to get off the ship and visit this new port. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than it being slow, I was able to stay in touch back home, check emails as needed as well as play on cruise critic while lounging up on serenity area. 1 hour ago, MPH711 said: Mike - Does it feel less crowded at 70% or does it feel the same?

Specialty restaurants were available and chairs ez to find on deck except for sea day # 2 when they decided to paint the aft pool. I was told it was scheduled maintenance, but damn weren’t they not sailing for over a year??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have booked 360 and I'm happy to hear that you thought this choice was great! Were the stingrays just off the beach or in a special area! TIA!

mygreeneyes Posted July 26, 2021 #34 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Thank you for the review. Cruising on the Horizon 8/7/21. A couple of questions: 1. Did vaccinated guests have to provide a negative COVID test or be tested at the port prior to boarding the ship? 2. Can you confirm that the safety drills on the Horizon are watched on video in the stateroom and then passengers report to their muster station to check in? In other words...no more stacked bodies outside in the heat??? Thanks in advance. :0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply go to muster station and they scan your sail and sign card then show you how to put on your life vest, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
