  1. Showing 314 on Cruisemapper that havn't been affected at all... I'm showing the infected off San Francisco are mostly crew and if I'm not mistaken that ship had been quarantined previously...
  2. Could be... I checked my daughter in when she was little back on Sovereign I think... From 12 on it was "see ya dad" On Legend . Fiancee's daughter no check in and tiptoe in in the wee hours.. Majesty, and few times here on Indy.We're back on indy with her daughter and her son for his first cruise...
  3. I may be repeating what others have said? They are refunding to within 48 hours of sailing ... Are you referring to this weekend as in Tomorrow? If so I would call (more than once if necessary) and see if you can find satisfaction...
  4. Wherever Carnival does its PR marketing hiring is where RCL should be looking to do theirs... I have never once even visited a Carnival website... They must follow me on Facebook or here? They know that I bleed RCL as far as loyalty and man starting in the middle of the night contacted me repeatedly (saying they were travel agents?)... Telling me why I should chose them over us? Describing all the nice things they are doing that RCL isn't... RCL has stepped to the plate with free cancellations up to 48 hours from go time... They havn't done the OBC (yet) but they have been pretty good about upgrading those that paid high originally (me included)... I blame this whole mess on the press... Greedy bastard media over sensationalizing and over hyping this into a panic inducing frenzy. Some say its political? I think its just to draw views and increase their advertising revenues while not caring what damage it does to industries and entire economies alike...
  5. Sounds like on board it is... Yes we will be bringing reps from both rooms... I remember seeing that they were different color with like spare key so you don't get it mixed up with sea pass...
  6. Need more levity n our lives... ?
  7. We have four of us in two rooms... All of us need access to both rooms. We are Balcony GTY so no idea how close we will even be it each other. How do we go about getting (ordering) extra keys for all of us to access both? Can this be done prior to boarding or does this have to be done on board somewhere? Where would that be if thats what is required...
  8. I love the onion and others... When they touch on a subject I like its even better!?
  9. Satire... Somebody had a lot of free time on their hands to come up with this one... https://www.theonion.com/shelling-from-royal-caribbean-s-m-s-allure-sinks-car-1819580080?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=SocialMarketing&utm_campaign=SF&utm_content=Main&fbclid=IwAR19Y5xcaFSHdyYXbB8Y4Iq6-gQOihm-_hpOYftzVtkbeV8W9wBX6u2p3yE
  10. I heard from a buddy who said it was better than he expected... Bones, a permit and some other odds and ends. Still trying to get you some help at Belize...
  11. Fiancee loves massages... Loved the ones at Costa Maya and Cozumel. Are there any at Labadee or Falmouth? Ship's spa really prohibitively expensive...
  12. We have April 4 this year on 5 night Western on Independence and it comes at a huge premium... Well over double what we spent on last years... I tracked its price all year and it never went down. Now it went up... A lot... This year those dates fell on school vacation. Thats why so high... Year before last prices we had been looking at shot through the roof and we figured "no trip" for that year... Next day fiance logged on from different computer and price was where we had originally seen it We booked right away... I have to wonder if they lock on "computer cookies" and know who's price checking... I clear cookies on one of my laptops and go in as a "stranger" now and then and often find things different when shopping for something...
  13. I usually book what my limited budget can swing without hurting. I have been offered royal up once before. I tossed a real low bid at a room to see if I'd get lucky but I didn't. This time a really good upgrade was available and I maxed out my bid because it would be a great upgrade and not remotely affordable otherwise...
  14. I'd be king of the world if I did get it... Big game fishing boat captain for occupation is indeed interesting but does not make me a "man of means". Fiancee and her kids deserve more than I can often provide... Couldn't swing booking a suite flat out but the upgrade even maxed bid was within reach... I had to try...
  15. The Royal Up fairy winged their way into my email box in the dark of night. Usually a flat no desire and this time was on track to get dumped. Then... One of the choices was "Panoramic Suite". I was thinking "panoramic Ocean View" but word was specifically suite. e have two teens my Fiancee and myself...4... I went looking for floor plan but that seemed to be the only one I couldn't find for Indy. I did find a couple vids and it showed what would work great for us. Main room, sitting room and that little two bunk side room. Am I correct that this is the Panoramic Suite? The vids both said so? That would be question one. Next... The ship is showing sold out for ANY rooms that can hold four people? Has any body ever won a bid in similar situation? Does such a room even exist? I bid the "maximum" does that increase odds? Since it is a suite would "suite stuff and benefits " go with it? I know a multi questioned post is tough but I think you i advance?
  16. I feel left out... I have the same old screen... ?
  17. I have a natural born daughter that at 7 liked the activities quite a bit. At 12 again lukewarm, at 14 though she didn't want to be seen with us and lived for the teen clubs. GF daughter very shy but went full on socialite in teen clubs and the same remains today. Loves that its "do dinner" then tip toe in in the wee hours stuff... GF son was one of those "I'm going to hate the ship and be bored types". That lasted about 30 seconds once aboard... Needed a crow bar to pry him off the ship...
  18. Yes... I'm a charter boat captain/ big game fisherman by trade but spend my off time fishing as well... As well as big game I guided for bonefish in the Keys and Bahamas for a while. One of my old boat owners owned an orange grove and citrus farm in Belize... we used to buzz down frequently...... Years back I presented the idea to RCL of hiring me to be their fleet fishing expert who could help point out in each port which boats were good and which were just taking people for a boat ride. They liked the idea and I was all excited til I found they wanted like 6 months on board and one off...
  19. Did a fishing charter a number of years ago... Caught a bunch of wahoo, a white marlin and a cero mackerel... Oddly enough that night they had a "special entre" in the MDR... Wahoo... ?
  20. Been a long time since doing Jamaica.. Been sober 20 years and last time there I was on a mission for Wray and Sons Overproof rum... Well I recall they had some really good coffee called Blue Mountain... Remember it from Ocho Rios... Do they have it at Falmouth? Or might I get lucky and find some still around dunns river falls?
  21. I shiould have mentioned in my statement that the one hard rule is no other cabins... And a second for the boy, don't play with the machinery around the lifeboats...
  22. Having been through a daughter of my own then a daughter and son through my fiance... Letting them go is the best thing ever. That new found sense of responsibility has played well with all three. With the fiance's kids at 15 and 17 now, its pretty much do dinner as a family then don't wake us up when you get back in the wee hours... Never been disappointed in any of them on board...
  23. I saw her examples... More detailed than what I had... I had One free spin in casino but nobody seemed interested in telling me where or how to take that spin... I did see somewhere recently (maybe while checking in or using cruise planner) about getting that discount on logo goods in the shop. That would likely be something I might use... Curiosity peaking now. Wonder what they load on the kids... ?
  24. Looking through C+A stuff... I see the term "special offers preloaded into sea pass card". I read further to refer to welcome letter... I have done so and find like our voom codes or other stuff but don't recall seeing stuff loaded on the card. I have seen mentioned near the casino to "swipe your card for a free spin" but it doesn't say where to swipe it. I really havn't taken advantage of C+A bennies (not that there are a lot at gold soon to be platinum) but that has been as a result of really not knowing how to work that system. What goodies am I missing?.. Any tips?
