Rare KarmaCruisers Posted November 26, 2022 Author #129 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Good morning Fort Lauderdale! got the FACK off of the WiFi and connected to LTE; immediately got 10Mbps download speed, hahahaha We we’re looking and unfortunately there are no UK cruises other than the one we’re taking (and it’s prior run, 12 days earlier which doesn’t work for my wife’s work schedule) So we may be forced to “burn” this offer on another eastern Mexico run during spring break with friends of ours (use both offers to get them a free room; to maximize value) On another note, we may get done dirty at our hotel Layover today… we originally booked hard rock Hollywood for fri/sat nights; with the intention to call late last night and tell them our flight was delayed badly and we wouldn’t get in until 9am and needed to check-in then… Well, we called and they said if you don’t show up by 4am, your reservation gets cancelled; but they changed our reservation for checking in today..so we asked them how early we can check in, and they said “front desk opens at 9am; but no gurantee you’ll get your room before 4pm” (Gee, thanks Automatron!) So we’ll see if we can get a little human thought today..doubtful but I know they’ll say “I’m sorry there are no rooms ready yet”….ohh yeah? You mean the room I had PAID FOR AND RESERVED..someone came in between 4am and 9am, and bought it??? (Which they say is not even available anyway) like I said; we’ll see if the front desk agent uses their brain or just is a robot, programmed for a single task.

Rare KarmaCruisers Posted November 28, 2022 Author #134 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Wrap-Up: - The terminal doors do not open until 10am in FLL; so don’t intend to be there any earlier or you’re out waiting in the street. - Boarding process was super smooth (We were “green lane”) We just showed our QR code in the app to two people (only because we picked up our medallions at the port; otherwise it’d of only been one person) We sat in the terminal from 10-10:30 while Suite Guests / Elite’s boarded. Room was ready when we got onboard. - Cozumel (Riviera Maya): Cruise Lines own the port, so the “vendors” inside the port aren’t the usual Mexico-aggro. Taxi drivers adhere to posted prices. Paradise Beach Club; 100% recommend! Ask for a beach spot if you want shade, pool spot if you want sun. - Roatan (Mahogany Bay): CCL(corp) owns the port, so again “vendors” aren’t aggro. To meet independent tours (ie: Daniel Johnson, etc) it seems like a crazy long walk, but don’t give up hope, they’re at the bottom of the hill outside the port gate. - Belize (Belize City): We didn’t get off the ship; but it’s a tender port and the tender ride had to be 20 minutes one-way (we were nowhere near the shore) - Mahahual (Costa Maya): HUGE port, again owned by the cruise lines. You could literally never leave the port area and enjoy your day (pools, etc) We did the Maya Chan beach day; it’s worth doing ONCE, but I wouldn’t do it again. The water is super brown and the beach line is literally covered in garbage (not at Maya Chan of course but ALLL the rest of the shoreline) They don’t have a pool. The only food available is a taco buffet. - Ship Thoughts: Room service is great 🙂 MDR will NOT let men in on formal nights unless they’re in pants (any kind of pants work, even “trainers”) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rowdies may be absent in the casino, but oh my are they active in other places onboard! LOL! This seems like a very different Princess crowd in comparison to what we have experienced in the past - even on Princess Christmas and New Years cruises. This Thanksgiving cruise has been really interesting…including an angry, yelling chair hog who had two of her (MANY) saved seats taken this morning after not being in them for hours. Hope you are having a great time!! I agree. I was on this cruise and I heard a woman go off at the buffet because she had to wait for cranberry sauce on thanksgiving.
