If I had more time on my hands, I'd offer up some cheap transport just for fun

OK now I'm excited and ready to go, only 3 more days!

Just an FYI for anyone looking for tests emed currently has a 6pack for $150 + $20 next day shipping(approximately) optum has a 2 pack for $70 + free shipping or a 3 pack for $99 + free shipping

get the Abbott at home test recommended by RC and Matt. Just bought a 3 pack from Optum for $99 to cover me and the wife plus one extra in case of an inconclusive. Free shipping

Finally getting back on a cruise with this one. It was booked like 5 years ago and moved a couple times. So excited!

for 2 people it's not needed but if you have 4 in your cabin, it's the only way to go. We love the Ultra Spacious rooms when we bring the kids.

This has been in the works for years, as we booked it as soon as they went on sale. The wife and I are doing alaska in June, we will go on this sailing. Although we could bring the kids to Alaska, it's far less exciting to them than Coco Cay. Besides it's the policy changes and the uncertain ones to come that make cruising WITH KIDS very hard to plan.

Well tonight I am feeling like giving up on cruising with my family for a couple years more. That hurts to say because we love it so much! I think I should cancel my November 21st cruise because I'm flying across the country from washington state and there are too many risks that we won't be able to sail. $2500 for airfare alone, hotel accomodations ect... What if my 5 or 10 year old gets covid? what if they change to not allow anyone unvaxxed? Variants.. Last minute restrictions .... Why stress myself out trying to go on vacation..... not worth it... ?? Feeling defeated tonight

Craziest thing I've ever seen in my life!!! I saw someone at the buffet, get this..... only get 1 plate of food without returning for more!!! Blew my mind

We are excited for this one. The wife and I will be bringing our 14 & 10 year old daughters and 5 year old son. Coming from Washington state and will be spending a couple days in Disney after. If anyone is bringing similar age kids it would be fun for the kids to make some new cruise friends.

I'm proud to say I emailed my local representatives pleading for help restart the cruise industry!! Thanks @Mattfor making this easy for all of us! This is something I wouldn't normally do, but it's so easy to take 5-10 minutes and write a personal message along with the pre-filled forms that simplify the process. Just ready Matt's blogs for an easy link. If you are reading this and haven't done it yet please do! Thanks

I have a Twic card, really wasn't hard to get. It has been expired now for a few years, but I believe it was just a couple hour class and background check. Right now it's bad business, no doubt. When there is money to be had when things start back up, someone will step in I'd think

hmm, i may have to call Royal I guess. I've tried to link it before also, so it must be a glitch(so the RCG website standard)

so i did that, and it says it's linked but I still don't see it
