Obviously do whatever you're comfortable with but the glitch for most of us seemed to be that we needed to change our PW and that solved the problem.

Anything but the green stuff that’s supposed to be guac and add Cholula chipotle. (Credit to @asquared17)

In March the Top Tier Event (which we usually skip) on Wonder was in Studio B. If it's back in the AT in June/July I think we'll go back to skipping it... although it does give me an excuse to pop into Playmakers for one of the two drinks I really like there. Sounds like exactly what I would order.

Circling back to this... CruiseTimeTables.com seems to be updated more than Cruisemapper. They show you there with Wonder. https://www.cruisetimetables.com/cococaybahamasschedule-20may2024.html

That’s more fact than opinion in my book.

So you either don't remember the answer you entered when you set up your account or there's a glitch. Have you contacted RC about resetting your PW?

Mainly Finest Call these days, AFAIK. Your wife has good taste.

Glad you're enjoying it as much as we did. I know I only had the one suite experience to compare it to but I agree it was a huge difference. My FIL only booked the Wonder cruise because he saw/read about the new suite neighborhood layout. Most of my family barely left except to see shows. The suite sun deck was a ghost town for some reason and we had the same two daybeds all week. The staff knew we were coming every morning after breakfast and had towels out waiting (we didn't ask, they were chair hogging for us, lol). We're never getting to Pinnacle but I love this and it would totally be us. Forget the cabin, gimme the perks!

FYI, the Black Friday sale actually started on 11/9 last year. I just checked the receipts from my purchases. Even if it's later this year, they should have more time at least.

Someone from Jersey "has a mouth at times"? No way! I say that lovingly coming from the Philly 'burbs, of course... and my wife doesn't exactly speak like a kindergarten teacher when off the clock, lol. She has quite a few novelty gifts alluding to her... umm... let's go with potty mouth.

That's not ideal. At least Hideaway did add some capacity to PDCC. The Symphony cruise that overlaps mine doesn't appear to have Labadee on the original itinerary so hopefully I'm safe for early June. There weren't many ships scheduled for Labadee anywhere near when I'll be on PDCC so I was cautiously optimistic about being there alone.

Even with grats included it's a crappy price compared to the 3N package on my upcoming sailings... it's only $12pp more with grats also included.

Your life is one giant S2S2S2S... the days in between just vary. #jealous

I'm finding more companies using this system and it really does seem to work. I think I used it calling the USPS of all things last week and it saved me a 45 minute wait.

Definitely worth checking out (as I posted earlier) but these sales of course vary by ship and sailing. The DBP is the same price for my next 2 cruises as it always is during a sale. I think the other packages are closer to Black Friday pricing though (I don't actually buy any of these, I just like keeping an eye on stuff).

Wonder is oddly often alone on PDCC. I will be or have been alone there on 4 separate Wonder cruises spanning 14 months. When looking at the port schedule to pass the time (and because I'm a nerd), for the upcoming months it's alone every other week or so. Those other Mondays it's there with a Celebrity ship. By dumb luck, we managed to book the solo weeks (we enjoy spending the day there so it matters more to us obviously). That is about the only negative I can think of to say about the ship, especially if you're on deck 17. It's less of an issue if you only have access to the commoner decks and don't mind taking the stairs. The elevators were unusually not that bad for us in March though and I have no idea why. Sorry about all the snafus with the lack of computers, sea pass not working, etc. Hopefully your good luck will continue in the casino to offset this random bad luck with other stuff. And needless to say, I'm glad you found a computer to keep the blog going.

There's a one day sale on drink packages today (all of them, including water). Doesn't mean it's going to be a great price for any one particular sailing but worth checking out if you're in the market or have previously booked one.

Good point. Those are my Wonder prices.

It's not for mine but it's close. Everything is more expensive on Wonder I guess.

@FionaMG wins!

Hope you had a great rest of your cruise and the blog just fell victim to "too busy having fun" syndrome. If you have time, I'd love to hear your thoughts on Paradise Beach at some point.

@Bill OH Any plans to share your thoughts once onboard (whether it's a full blog or just randomly)? I know how much research you've put into Wonder so I'm interested to hear what you think! Selfishly, it will also get me even more excited about boarding after you. Sharing afterwards is cool too, I'll just be a little busy when you get home.

That’s more expensive than individually booking Chops and any other specialty dinner at the usual pre-cruise price.

Exactly what we have.

We live close to the Magic Kingdom and LOVE Homecomin! If you ever make it onto a ship with Mason Jar I think you'd really enjoy it. Very similar vibe and food (although we've only had brunch at MJ and dinner at Homecomin).
