Matt

As Steve said, officially you cannot bring bottled water onboard but may purchase bottled water packages. Unofficially, you can absolutely bring a case of bottled water in your carryon and have no problem taking it onboard.

I agree it's an interesting spectacle to behold seeing folks still dress that way.

I finally won trivia while on my Brilliance of the Seas cruise! I won twice, getting a pen and a hat.

With Terminal 1 in PC, it is really simple to park and get to the terminal. The parking facility is attached to the terminal.

Thank you!

Taxi would be your best bet

I would be shocked if that happened

Wishing you and your family a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Welcome to the boards! Welcome! Anthem is a fabulous ship, you will love her.

Amen!

I would recommend working with a travel agent to coordinate groups. It will make your life FAR easier.

You just described my afternoons

Indy is not on the list of ships to get Voom in the near future.

I briefly looked but could not quickly locate the setting. I will have to do some digging!

My wife thinks the best part is not having to worry about making food for a week

....too excited to sleep!

I gotta say that the old minutes plan were terrible from a guest satisfaction perspective. On slow internet (non-Voom), you can easily burn through many minutes without actually accomplishing anything. It lead to a lot of frustrated guests and longer lines at Guest Services. By making it 24 hours or unlimited, RC solved an issue where guests were upset that they wasted 5, 10, 20 minutes that they paid for.

Agreed, texting is fairly inexpensive in short amounts, especially compared to buying a WiFi package.

Great rule of thumb

Thanks for the update. Can you share a photo of the construction you are referring to?

My suggestion is keep your plans simple and "lightweight". Don't plan your days more than maybe having a meal together or doing an excursion together. That way, you keep it simple and if you guys want to all hang out more than what you did, you can and if not, you have an easy out after each activity.
