We’re on deck 9, so keep it down up there!! 😋 Edited September 23, 2023 by SnorkellinGal Typo correction 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnorkellinGal Posted September 23, 2023 #859 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Is anyone in our group decorating their doors? This was meant to be my 8th anniversary cruise with my late spouse, so I had ordered some decorations for our door because we had decided to join in the fun this cruise. Not sure how my first-time cruising Sister will think of my antics but hopefully she won’t be too embarrassed by them! lol. No worries group - there won’t be any upside down pineapples making an appearance on our door!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to coordinate with John on us stomping around up there at all hours. I'm solo but joining up with his group of four we could start a band or basketball team to keep you up!😜 Edited September 23, 2023 by Destiny0315 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foundmyMcGyver Posted September 23, 2023 #861 Share Posted September 23, 2023 On 9/21/2023 at 10:53 PM, SnorkellinGal said: I turn platinum on this cruise (currently 5 days shy) but was told when I booked that I’d receive my platinum cruise card, pin and perks on this sailing. I finished my check in today and printed my documents and lo and behold it shows me as platinum. Yahoo, I finally can go in the short check in line!! Hello SnorkelGal, sadly there is no priority lines for this cruise 😢 a lot of Diamond and Platinum perks are not due to the high volume of those tiers on this trip. It is happening a lot on cruises over 10 days. Hopefully you get to see and experience some perks for your 1st Platinum sailing but definitely won't be like a true experience. I am 1 cruise away from Diamond but my husband already is. Besides the priority boarding one of our perks we really appreciate is the unlimited same day laundry. After receiving our email for limited benefits this cruise, I popped a few more things in my luggage 🤪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
