I checked my account today and there was nothing there. Not surprised though as I used the summer offer for a week on Harmony, and the fall offer for a four night solo sailing on Indy.

Guess who came back early this morning. I wish there was a way to let everyone know not to feed the troll and avoid replying to any articles from that guy.

If you’re looking for that new ship feeling but a little more upmarket. There’s some decent deals on Celebrity Apex (which luckily is already done and just hasn’t sailed yet) that leaves on 11/21 out of Port Everglades.

@CJS2766 I’ve used robin when she was at MEI and now use @michelle (who is also in NOVA) and both have been great.

It did surprise me for my Odyssey sailing next March several excursions were already showing sold out, mostly Aruba excursions.

The last picture from Meyer Weft was on 5/18. They have a webpage where you can see ships under construction. https://www.meyerwerft.de/en/company/webcam/index.jsp

You can do everything it just means that by day four or five your wife and daughter will hate you because you ran them ragged. I speak from experience

Voice calls work great. Depending on ship you may have some trouble with video calls.

@JLMoran I think one of the keys here is to look at news that doesn’t consistently use words like “could” of “may”. So many articles are just being printed for clicks and just make claims.

The sloths and monkeys are fun if it’s your first time there. Be prepared for very old cabs and some rides through some rough areas.

Would be awesome if Royal would take one of the potentially excess ships, flag it in the US and run a Hawaii route year round. NCL’s Pride of America itinerary has always intrigued me even with the extra costs.

It’s a lot like Florida. Everyone thinks crazy s*+t only happens in Florida. But in reality Florida’s sunshine laws mean everything gets publicized and nothing’s a secret.

We should start a pool where we all pick a date when wonder will first sail. If I get first crack at a date I’ll take 11/11/2023 if it stays in China.

We’ll be right there with you on 11/21. Hopefully with a quick result test so the masks can be left in the bag throughout the week. We leave out of Port Everglades on 11/21.

I’ve had this several times over the last couple of days. You have to wait a couple of minutes as even though everything has gone silent, it isn’t yet connected to an agent.

I’d assume that like with hotel and airline status that has been extended, anything earned this program year will just go into the ether and not count towards next years program year.

I don’t have it for liberty. But on a three night navigator sailing it was very limited.

I would wait unless there’s another option you are ready to pull the trigger on now. Most sources say airlines will take years to recover so I doubt there’d be a huge jump in airfare cost (hard to tell as I don’t know where you are located) or the flights being sold out that far out.

I’m with you on this one. We had never done it before last year and now have cruises booked for the next two thanksgivings. It’s great as it still leaves vacation days for later on and only two days off of school for my daughter.

Hopefully they give you guys plenty of notice when/if Odyssey gets delayed. I’d guess right now that Thanksgiving bookings are lighter than last year so hopefully you guys have time to make alternate arrangements.

I’ve disproven my theory that I don’t sleep well in hotels, normally I’m in them three to four days a week, now i just don’t sleep well at home those same days.

Yeah, I’m thinking the same.

No, by disappear I meant will stop happening. It will be hard at least for a time to justify bringing guests into highly controlled and mission critical areas like the bridge, galley, engine room, etc..

I wonder for how long the behind the scenes, bridge, or, galley tours disappear for.

NCL has done some interesting stuff on new ships to make the casino easier to handle. There’s a separate glassed off area of the casino specifically for smoking. before that it was terrible. On the breakaway class ships the smoke seems to go everywhere.
