gumballz Posted February 27, 2007 #301 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Thanks thoneycu! Key West is an amazing place with such diversity. You can easily spend a day there and not see/experience it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wetirish Posted February 27, 2007 #302 Share Posted February 27, 2007 What the cheapest way to travel from Dallas Hobby Airport to the cruise dock and back for four? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzy1212 Posted February 27, 2007 #303 Share Posted February 27, 2007 I have a question I am on the veranda deck aft balcony cabin I was wondering how much can the people on the lido deck see on to my balcony, while looking out at the aft windows? I spent lots of time sitting at the tables and you can't look down at the balconies while sitting there. Like Snoozeman said, you could if you stood at the back windows and looked down, but I never saw anyone doing that, and doubt it would happen much.

bilallen Posted February 27, 2007 #305 Share Posted February 27, 2007 I keep on debating should I get the early seating or the late seating on my cruise. Also if given the choice between the Monet and the Renoir which should I choose. Any suggestions are appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blyle Posted February 27, 2007 #306 Share Posted February 27, 2007 When I arrived at Hobby last week there was a booth set up for Galveston transfers. THe price did not seem very high. I would search the internet for transfers and shuttles. THere was also an ad on TV for shuttles from the airports. Might be worth it to check. Sorry I can't give more info. Enterprise is the agency that has drop off in Galveston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riley's Mom Posted February 28, 2007 #308 Share Posted February 28, 2007 How do they determine which dining room you will be in?? Is it based upon where your cabin is located??? Thanks, Carla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerdog Posted February 28, 2007 #309 Share Posted February 28, 2007 How do they determine which dining room you will be in?? Is it based upon where your cabin is located??? Thanks' date=' Carla[/quote'] There's really no rhyme or reason on how they select your dining room. We've had aft cabins and was assigned to the forward dining rooms. Bilallen: We preferred the 6:15 Renoir. The maitre' d was wonderful. He was very personable, checked on us everynight and even sang Frank Sinatra each night. He made dining fun!!

blyle Posted February 28, 2007 #310 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Dining times are assigned first by preference and the dining room is by time. Ever since the ships became larger the location of your cabin was no longer a factor for dining room location. Onen of the perks of being Platinum is that you are guaranteed your preferred dining time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yst347 Posted February 28, 2007 #311 Share Posted February 28, 2007 The Maitre'D in the Monet is Jean Pierre. He is alot of fun. I would highly recommend you switch to the 8:00 seating after you board if this is not your assignment. No only will you enjoy Jean Pierre and his singing but you will have a head start on finding a good seat for the late show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went straight to the dining room to change it, but was told to please try it the first night and if I still wanted to change he would try. We really liked the people we were seated with and the wait staff, so we stayed in the Renoir, but I really prefer the Monet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare luvbigdogs Posted February 28, 2007 #313 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I have been on 11 cruises, and for the first time last month, we changed the time on the ship. That was on the Carnival Pride out of LA. All the other cruises have been off the East Coast to the Caribbean, and the time on board remained East Coast time for the week. We have now booked the Conquest out of Galveston, TX. Does anyone know if they keep the ship's time on Central Time for the entire week? Thanks!

We have now booked the Conquest out of Galveston, TX. Does anyone know if they keep the ship's time on Central Time for the entire week? Thanks! When we were on the Conquest in December, we changed our clocks for Jamaica and Grand Cayman because they are in the Eastern time zone. We changed it back for Cozumel, in the Central time zone. In September, during daylight savings time, the ship time stayed the same all week because Jamaica and Grand Cayman don't change to DST so our time was the same. Since Cozumel does go to DST that put them on Texas time too. Does that make sense? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best thing for you to do is go read the threads on the Port of Call boards for MoBay, Grand Cayman and Cozumel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
