  1. Looking to upgrade my GTY Balcony in Nov. on Utopia to a Central Park Balcony. Any suggestion on cabin number and/or deck would be appreciated. We normally stay in a ocean view balcony or suite, but have never stayed in one of the interior balconies. Thanks.
  2. I've received many military discounts over the years. I don't recall having to show my ID card. Right before final payment I got a several hundred dollar military discount on two rooms on July 1st sailing of Allure. It is a real discount and it is out there. Just keep checking and repricing.
  3. I don't see around Australia and New Zealand cruise for 2025. Any word?
  4. Six years to go. Just moved to Margaritaville in anticipation.
  5. Looks like a load test this morning. Very few cruises offered at very high prices. I do not believe the complete list has uploaded yet.
  6. I find the easiest way is to go to your BoA web site and click on the View MyCruise Points button below your reward points total. That will take you to a new BoA page that displays your point total. Beside that total is a Redeem MyCruise Points button. Pressing that will take you to a new web site that has your redemption choices.
  7. Agree. We did the land tour first for just that reason.
  8. In 2017 we got double points for both the land portion and the cruise. I can not speak to any change in policy since then. Southbound Alaska & Hubbard Glacier Radiance of the Seas Jul 21 — Jul 31, 2017 Points earned: 20
  9. Did three day Land Tour through RC in 2017. We arrived a day early in Fairbanks taking the kids to North Pole, AK and the Museum of the North. We joined our tour group that night and the next day toured the gold dredge and took the optional river tour. I was impressed with both and felt I got my monies worth. Next day was glass domed train to Denali and we took the optional long bus tour of Denali. Again worth the dollars spent. Third day was the long bus drive to Sewerd with a stop for lunch in Anchorage. A travel day really. Pros I was impressed with the production value of the gold dredge and river tour. The glass domed train was great with drink service, tour guide, and fresh cooked breakfast. Denali long tour was long, but worth it. The Hotel in Fairbanks was nice and fun in a local tourist way. If staying in a suite you get double points for the land portion as well. Guide and driver were great. Cons The long bus tour in Denali is long. You do lots of stops. They give you a snack box, but you will miss a meal or possible two so eat first or bring something to eat. This is a school bus not a motorcoach. Our hotel rooms in Denali were not very clean and had a noticeable unevenness to the floor slightly less than a carnival fun house. I would recommend and felt we got our monies worth. Next time I will plan our own with less motorcoach and more glass dome train.
  10. Wife loved flowers in the cabin. I hate that you can no longer get them.
  11. Get there early and grap one of the beach beds by the pool.
  12. Prior to COVID you could order in room flowers for most US sailing except Alaska. Also many ships had a flower cart in the promenade. I have not looked for the cart in some time so I don't know if it is still available on sailings or not. My gut feeling is flowers have gone the way of Tux rentals.
  13. Just book 3 night Perfect Day and sea day. No Nassau. GTY Inside. Trying to do this on the cheap. Will have just sailed Allure with family over the 4th of July. Looking forward to the new ship. We haven't done a new ship since we sailed on Allure's 100th cruise. Got free Champaign on boarding and a nice certificate. We did not know and it was a nice surprise.
  14. I wonder if C and A status is negotiable in divorce proceedings?
