I would LOVE to go back!  Some of the ports were an one drive from where we were going so that is 2 hours that cut into our time unfortunately.

Sounds awesome.
The only downside is you didn't get to beautiful Wales. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
Excuse to come back I guess!

Woo hoo, congrats!!!  I hit Diamond in June, and get to take advantage of my sparkly new status in December.

Congratulations!!!
We are 79 points after last week’s cruise….so close but yet so far

It was amazing and wonderful.  We had perfect weather!!  We miss the Channel Islands due to the scheduling of the Locks in Amsterdam.  They have a low water issue right now and the ships have to be scheduled differently.  We got back into Amsterdam at 6 pm the night before disembarkation, we got to explore Amsterdam that night too with no set time to be back.  We went to Braveheart County and Stirling Castle in Edinburgh, Scotland; Dunrobin Castle in Iverness, Scotland (this was massive and beautiful and we also got to see a falconry demo there (which was a special treat), in Glasgow, Scotland we went to Glengoyne Distillery (bought some 18 year old whisky) and we went to the Greyabbey ruins.  We did the scenic tour Belfast Northern Ireland and walked around Donaghadee Harbour, in Cork (Cobh) Ireland we a city tour and had an Irish Coffee tasting,  in Dover England we toured Dover Castle (massive - I walked 29 flights of stairs! and we went to Canterbury Cathedral - huge and beautiful!!! and the port was in eye sight of the White Cliffs of Dover (amazing).  In Liverpool we went to Chester Catherdral and walked all around Beatle country.  You need to do this one!!!

Thank you, @whitsmom.  It sounds like an amazing cruise and soooo many wonderful things to see and do.  I'm happy that you got to go and that you are home safely.
Congratulations on making Diamond !!!  What a great hurdle to overcome.

Congrats!!! We have 14 days on Grandeur in January to push us to 69 and still in Emerald so booked a JS for 7 day cruise next September to jump us to Diamond before Oasis in Jan 24 to benefit!

Congratulations! This is the first tier where I felt the benefits really made a difference.  

Congrats, we just turned Diamond after our Oasis cruise in August. May 28th 2023 on Oasis again will be our first as Diamond. Again congrats!

We turned Diamond during our British Isles trip 8/19-8/31 on the Jewel.  I just looked and it is posted and official.  Now I have to wait 409 days until my next cruise!

In my experience, this also varies by port. Just this year, we were in a JS from Seattle and went through all the regular lines. Then two months later in Miami, our JS sent us through the Suite/Pinnacle priority line.

Must have been a very expensive 'lunch'!!! 😎 

Well not cheaper than the free water but you know what I mean!!

If you pre-order the water package (12 or 24 bottles or cans) it works out much cheaper....

Did the Ovation one a few years ago on our very first cruise. Really interesting to see behind the scenes and it really makes you realise the amount of work that goes unseen. 
Hats off to the staff working so we can have a great holiday/vacation*

We have been trying to get to Coco cay since before this miserable pandemic and we are finally here on Oasis. This could not be better and cooler. I watched, we watched a million videos of this island and none of really prepared us for how freaking awesome it truly it. Kids are having a blast and there is no better value on vacations at all. We will be back here on Oasis or anthem and probably both. This splash away bay is just amazing. The dump buckets are just so much fun. This vacation was worth every penny even with a 7 month old which can be a bit challenging at times. 9 year old is having the time of his life. Just loving this! Loving this!
