He checked to be sure and was told full WC cruisers only. I don't have my files with me (I'm on a cruise), but I have the documentation somewhere. Fabio has different information from what we were told months ago. Full segmenters, as well as full UWCers are permitted to carry on wine from ports.

There was a story online about him. 1 hour ago, A&L_Ont said: This sounds interesting. 58 minutes ago, ace2542 said: https://www.businessinsider.com/ultimate-world-cruise-passenger-cant-re-board-ship-in-brazil-2023-12?r=US&IR=T It is from December so I assume he will have reboarded. If @ace2542 is referring to the person in the BI article, he is not a TikTokker. He is a regular full UWC cruiser who PREPLANNED to leave the ship for about a week, and then return. He has returned. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruiselvr04 Posted January 10 #1978 Share Posted January 10 Stay safe! We like rocking and rolling to a point. When I start to feel like I’m going to roll off the bed it starts to bother me a little. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doghog Posted January 10 #1980 Share Posted January 10 5 hours ago, island lady said: Heading into higher winds and rain (or snow? 😉 ) clouds on horizon. Rocky rough seas...getting worse. And cold!! 🥶 Motion of the ocean. Speaking of snow, I'm heading out to start the snow blower to clear the driveway and sidewalks. Got about 6 inches last night. And speaking of cold, it's currently 25 degrees with a forecasted high of 30 degrees and more snow and wind later. 🥶 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All we get is bags of wash and fold (AKA boil and fry)...the same as we get for D+ and Pinnacle. As they say...don't believe everything you read. It did me no good to question what actually is the case on board. Several things that were promised and are in writing did not happen.

Rare island lady Posted January 10 Author #1985 Share Posted January 10 Some interesting things around the ship this morning. Signs everywhere, decks 5 and 12 closed off due to weather. And when these things come out (and is the first for this cruise so far)....ummm...yeah. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzingnut Posted January 10 #1986 Share Posted January 10 19 hours ago, island lady said: Funny thing is all the restaurants here feature Stella...all of them. For some reason it is their beer of choice. If you ask for a large Stella...they bring you this huge bottle (quart size) of it. 😮 I've been lurking here and wanted to comment on the beer....if you can, please try Patagonia beer! I'm not a beer drinking at all but I love that stuff!!! Patagonia and a slab of Argentine beef = heaven! Back to lurking I go.....😎 Linda R. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted January 10 Author #1988 Share Posted January 10 So, guys...a rare look at the women's restroom on deck 13. Something I did not notice before... Doors to the stalls are numbered. I guess this one is for using for #1...and this one for #2. 😄 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the fact that they are currently more than 1,000 paying passengers below capacity (2,476 passengers) has something to do with the broken promises. According to Liberty, they only become cash flow positive at around 50% capacity, and profitable in the mid 90% range. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted January 10 Author #1990 Share Posted January 10 Upper tier this morning added in a crew member award ceremony for member of the month (awarded for last month's service) with money prize. Back of house and front of house. Our beloved Ellen from Chops was nominated, though did not win top prize...(that is her first row middle) she is the winner in our hearts! 🥰 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
