I did! I'd suggest going to check on the reservations when you board. 7 seems more manageable but I'd still check with dining. I think we had too many people and too many travel agents involved...saying that, we were able to get the same table at the same time with the same wonderful wait staff.

Makes sense. Try cruisedeckplans.com too! You may be able to get more info...

Depends on what you’re looking for. Personally, I’m probably not gonna make it to Diamond in my lifetime so I don’t care about points. I’d enjoy the balcony. Also ??????

My cruise planner itself still says "Scheduled Maintenance"

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Interested in what you’re doing in Bermuda- I leave on Anthem Saturday.

Following along!

I'm pretty sure unless you are in a suite and it's not an Express you cannot do takeout.

ooooooh, Them's be fightin' words. I am a Yankee fan....

While that sounds amazing, not sure I can add any more days to the countdown. I'm dyin' over herrrrre.?

1- I hated it because no one told me I had to jog up a mountain. It was a bunch of guides telling us we needed to go faster to get to the top. Not yelling or bootcamp like and they were all super nice. I tried and got halfway (let's say I jog 1-2x weekly, but am very slow on my own - I do 3 to 4.5 miles at the local park except for winter). I would not say I'm in shape but can hold my own. If you are in shape - GO FOR IT. I saw people who I later found out were marathon runners. I saw people who knew what this was and took the challenge head on. They seemed very happy with it. My friend called out the experience way before I did and decided to take her sweet time. She LOVED it. Never made it near the top but loved it. I gave up halfway and finally met up with her - after I stopped sweating the craziest I ever have in my entire life I took on her attitude and loved it. Note you'll always be with a guide - even if you stop, they will radio for someone to be with you. I did not get to the top, so cannot answer to that. I know it depends on the time you take to get up there. 100% safe. Did not think about critters and I happen to be stereotypical female who hates anything that isn't a dog, cat or farm animal. Shoes - hiking boots or sturdy sneakers. I had a tshirt and running pants on. Sorry for the long winded reply.

That's an excellent idea!!! No joke you are walking at a high incline a good deal of the time and moving quickly.

OOOOO! I'd be possibly in for that one!

Well wishes to the people who are cruising and for people who are on same ship to connect if they want. You okay, buddy?

Yup, my Stop and Shop supermarket will take my card but I can't use my rewards there. Not a big deal.

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!

Agreed, just needed to adjust the budget in my head.

That's what I thought, just wanted to make sure!

We did not. My friend made the reservation right before we walked in (say 15 before) and except for a small party we were the only people in there. Not necessary and it was a sea day. Perhaps it's not a bad idea to call/book just in case though.

Question - is gratuity included in the price and you're adding to it?

Staaahhhpp. I have an inside room. I don't care, I'm cruising.

I had an iFly reservation that I since canceled, I've gone skydiving so changed my mind. There will be reservations available, I'd go to those areas once you've boarded.

Amazing! You'll have to blog your experience! (can you please?)

Last cruise I spent a good amount of time by the pool - there was a bartender who would see me everyday and go out of his way to get me drinks. NEVER gave me a receipt to tip him, which I would have because his service was above excellent. I've actually felt bad that I didn't give him an extra tip but never had cash on me and quite honestly, forgot. All I did was be nice to him.

There was a large group of us in July and ONE person didn't check in online. In under 10 minutes we were all on our way. Saying that- we were at port before 11am and there were no lines.
