Thank you we will look into this to see if they offer such a trip.

I already bought one haha.  I saw Twangster post it and I bought one on Amazon that day because it is a very good idea.

Thank you!  I will let her know so she can plan accordingly

@twangster The ship looks amazing.  I subscribed to your YouTube channel so I can catch any upcoming videos you post on Navigator.  I sail on her in November of this year and now I can't wait!!

I originally booked this cruise as the second leg of a back to back.  The first segment was cancelled by Royal so instead of 14 nights on the ship, I now have just 9 nights.  First world problems.  
Itinerary:
Day 1 - Embark in Miami
Day 2 - Sea Day
Day 3 - Labadee
Day 4 - Sea Day
Day 5 - Aruba
Day 6 - Curaçao
Day 7 - Bonaire
Day 8 - Sea Day
Day 9 - Sea Day
Day 10 - Debark in Miami
I last sailed Navigator just a few months ago on the same ‘ABC’ itinerary.  That was an awesome cruise even though it was a few weeks before she went in for her makeover.  
Navigator isn’t the first ship to be ‘refreshed’ but how they did this refreshment does have some notable differences.  
When the refreshment couldn’t be completed in time Royal canceled the first leg of my planned B2B.  They eventually completed the work and on short notice invited employees and some media on a 2 night ‘shakedown’ cruise using the time that was left over from the cancelled cruise.  Check out this blog post from @Matt who participated in that shakedown cruise which illustrates how this refreshment is new and different:

To set the stage, I’ve sailed Adventure and Mariner after their recent makeovers.  I’ve also sailed Explorer, another in the Voyager class.  While I love most ships I sail including the newer Oasis and Quantum class, Voyager class ships are my favorite at the moment and all of the above mentioned ships fall into this class.
With my recent Navigator ABC cruise in mind I am looking forward to experiencing the same ship on the same itinerary but in a fully refreshed condition.  
My hotel is near Miami's airport but I flew into the Hollywood/Ft. Lauderdale airport since it was cheaper.  For the first time I took the Tri-Rail train from Ft. Lauderdale to Miami International Airport.  When I landed in Ft Lauderdale the prices to reach my hotel in Miami for Lyft was $45 and Uber $48. The Tri-Rail cost me $3.75 but it was a longer transfer compared to Lyft/Uber.  I may do a separate post on the Tri-Rail experience.   In summary it was great for just $3.75 but it did take over twice as long compared to a ride-share. 
From my hotel in the Miami airport area as I write this I am not too far from the Port of Miami and will be ready to go early in the morning hoping the ship is available early given no debarking passengers to hold us up.  

We are going on Navigator of the Seas in November of 2019. 

I'm sure I will have more than a few drinks haha.  I joined to learn more as I have purchased the unlimited dining package and unlimited drink package and I have no idea if it is worth the money or if one is and the other isn't.  I'm really excited to go and hope that we love it so we can keep planning these a year in advance as this was really easy to book.

Just curious if anyone is going on the Navigator of the Seas  on November 18-22, 2019 out of Miami.  This is my first cruise so I am looking to gain knowledge from people who love the cruising life.
