  1. When you purchase them you need to specify the delivery date. I assume as long as that date is embarkation day the stateroom attendant will put them up. I never thought twice about it, I just assumed that would be the case.....and it was.
  2. I pre-purchased birthday decorations in February and anniversary decorations in May. February was a balcony stateroom and May was a suite. Both times the decorations were hung up when we went to the cabin on embarkation day.
  3. There is a 2 day Indy sailing in May that goes to Perfect Day. I am very tempted to book it so my kids can check it out (I felt SO guilty going there without them!). This is the only way my older daughter could see it for 2 years due to nursing school beginning next month.
  4. The Deluxe Package does not include Starbucks, but yes you can order drinks in the main dining room as well as specialty restaurants as well that will be covered.
  5. We found the pizza very good on Oasis in February. Sailed on Mariner and Navigator in May and I believe it was about the same. Seems to taste even better the later it gets and the more you exercise the Deluxe Drink Package too!
  6. I head up an annual group cruise and many of our travelers use power chairs, scooters and stay in accessible cabins. I have never heard of anyone being able to drop off anything early.
  7. In May I sailed on Mariner and Navigator. All my drinks were covered with the DX at The Bamboo Room on Mariner, but was charged $1 on Navigator. Didn't bother me, but I found it odd.
  8. Congratulations @Matt, great to see your hard work recognized!
  9. I am a firefighter and get 360 hours of PTO (we work 24 hour shifts so that's 15 days). Since I work every 3rd day, if I take 2 vacation days that's 8 days off. We also get what they call Kelly Days which is a day off every 6 weeks, so that's 8 more days a year. We choose our days off by seniority and I've been there for 19 years, so I never have a problem getting the days I need.
  10. We do this as well, guest services will happily give you an extra key for each stateroom.
  11. Yes on my sailing (the April 3 day) it lists those as the perks, however on a cruise cabin site (honestly can't remember which one) there was a notation that 3-5 night sailings had the $30 OBC vs the lunch. Figured someone may have experience with this, there was just a 3 day Harmony in May. Like I said, no big deal, just curious.
  12. I just read somewhere that 3-5 night sailings do not qualify for the complimentary lunch but instead you receive a $30 OBC. Does anyone one know if this is correct? Not a big deal really, just like to know what to expect.
  13. If you click the above link you'll likely find one there.
  14. I had the Unlimited Dining on Navigator last month, yes if a restaurant is open you can dine there. We stayed onboard in Nassau and had lunch at Jamie's Italian.
  15. I chatted with him on Navigator last month. Saw him eating breakfast in Chops every morning with some of his fellow Pinnacle Club friends. This was the sailing that he celebrated his 8,000th cruise point on!
  16. Great video, thanks for the memories! We got off the ship the day you boarded!
  17. Yup, it's complimentary! It's all you see people eating on the pool deck! lol
  18. Sugar Free Red Bull and Tito's is my go to drink onboard. Every bar I went to on Oasis, Mariner & Navigator recently had it.
  19. Last month we sailed on Mariner and Navigator. At The Bamboo Room we were charged $1 extra for the On The Run drink on Navigator but not Mariner. Thought it was odd, lol.
  20. If you call they should allow you to book him the Refreshment Package. You have to call, you can not do this online. 18% gratuity will be added to the price of any of the drink packages. You can buy one device Voom if you'd like. Only one device can be logged in at a time, but you can log out and your husband can then log in.
  21. On my last 2 sailings I simply used the app to show the Set Sail pass. Since everyone's pass on the reservation shows in the app, if someone else in your party has the package you can order the drinks and just swipe to the appropriate persons pass for them to "charge" it.
  22. We splurged on 4 passports at the end of last year. We are cruising more now so it made sense and the peace of mind now is great! Plus my daughter will be going to London in a couple of weeks so obviously she needed one regardless.
