    Unfortunately, the time of year we go- kids sale free doesnt apply. We go during spring break so we do not have to use vacation time from work. I wish though!

    …. I'm sorry.  What did you say?  ?‍♂️
     
    Just kidding.  Know that you will enjoy the suites.  Be forewarned, it's easy to get spoiled.

    You will be spoiled with a suite! I know I am. My mom took me on a cruise for my graduation/birthday/mother-daughter trip-- and we got grand suite to celebrate... when we booked our next cruise, we originally booked a balcony room but then sat down with NextCruise and was like- oh heck, why not- we upgraded to a suite again... and now on our 3rd cruise together, you guessed it- we are in a suite (to celebrate my 40th bday). We seem to always find some "excuse" to book a suite. LOL
    Next year, my mom and I are taking a cruise with my 6 yr old and 10 yr old... and we will have to down grade. The cost of a suite for the 4 of us is just too much... so we will have to down grade to balcony rooms... We couldnt find an "excuse" to book a suite for that trip LOL

    Until the Kids Sail Free special comes around again... then it’ll be “it’s 4 of us in a suite for the price of 2!” ?

    By learning from these great people I just snagged a great deal!!!
    I already did final payment on our May 2020 Western Med cruise but still was checking prices and saw they had dropped.
    So I called, all RC could say is no.
    I got the best RC C & A rep, his name is Kenu.
    I went from a family interior to a GYT Suite (Some people here are a bad influence and YOLO) 
    Yes, I paid the difference but since I listen to the wonderful people on this blog ( see above) I booked as soon as it opened so it was at a great price to start with.
    The price difference was $700 per stateroom (I know, it was a crazy good price, to me at least)
    So now we can try out a suite and see if it's worth they extra cost.
    Of course my husband is worried, he thinks once I try a suite I will never want to go back to a OV balcony (our typical room)
    Plus again taking the advice from here, I got two staterooms for us four (why we were in two family interior staterooms instead of a OV balcony)
    So our daughter and her boyfriend are also in a GYT Suite.
    I just had to share, I'm super excited.  I can't wait to see where we land in terms of suites ( totally fine with a JR suite)
    Plus we get double C & A points!!

    I have a full pack of SONO wipes in my checked and a half empty pack of SONO wipes in my backpack.  I have every intention of wiping my seat area on my next airplane ride.  A benefit of growing older is not caring what people think.    
    Over years of business travel across the US I often got something on those trips from "common colds" to things approaching the flu.  I blame the airplane or the nasty TV remote in the hotel room.  Wipe it down.

    People have laughed at me while I wipe my seat down, the neck rest, the tray table, anything I may come into contact with and if I can, the person next to me. I've also had people ask for a wipe. I take medical grade ones on the plane. I'm not sure how effective it all is but I have a bad tendency to touch my face or bite my nails so I like to be protected. Plus, I've gotten noro before and it was one of the worst sicknesses I've ever had. I haven't gotten the flu in a decade - not saying it's all the wipes and stuff but it makes me feel better.

    You have to be careful with Clorox wipes because not all the versions sanitize equally. Many of them don’t kill Noro. The only one I know of that does is Clorox Hydrogen Peroxide wipes from their healthcare line. Read labels carefully.  Oxivir is pretty potent. That is why we use those instead.
    I am a huge germaphobe! You have no idea. And I probably would pay that too! Thank goodness they are cheaper than that! ?
