thanks for explaining that... i was just really curious!! that makes sense to me.... that is pretty cool!

I just was watching a ship tour video on youtube, and it brought up something that just made me wonder. I know that if you are a diamond member, or whatever level you are, that your kids automatically have the same level... will that level stick with them for life? I was just thinking, that would create a legacy thing that would chain down the family... For instance, if you cruise a bunch, and you have a kid and they inherit your level... if they grow up and get married and have kids... then their kids will retain the level... and on and on... Or, do kids have to start over with their own points, once they move out of the house? I just was wondering... it doesn't really apply to me, as I am an empty nester and just started.. but was curious... ?

ok, got it! Thank you so much for your help. I had originally booked this before I knew of Matt and the website... now , i know, when I do book again, i will go through you guys!

I am pretty sure that I never did the 'non refundable ' option, but 1800 dollars of my current scheduled cruise (jan 2022) was booked with the FCC already given to me from the May 2020 cancellation, which I cancelled myself, before they started cancelling them... I wish i would have waited, but you know, hindsight...

i do not have one, i booked straight through RC...

I don't think I ever did the 'non refundable'... and i took the insurance as well...

what are the chances that I can get a refund for a cruise that has been rebooked 3 times due to covid... (originally May 3, 2020, now booked for January 2022) that is now booked with 1/2 money pushed forward and FCC ? Is there any chance that they will give me the money back?

Bushwackers sounds like a fun place! ? A skyride sounds awesome... will have to look into all of this too! thanks so much!

oh that sounds amazing.. will have to check into it for sure! thanks a bunch!! ?

Matt said tonight that the best thing to do in St Thomas is to go to Magen's Bay. When i look at the excursions in the cruise planner, they only have a couple options that go to Magen's bay, and both of them just stop there for like 2 hours and then move on. We want to go there for most of the day. Do most people just take a cab or shuttle over to Magen's bay? I think a guy in there mentioned a shuttle... is this something you can just get off the ship and find a shuttle or whatever in the port and go?

thanks so much all of you ! ? Happy Holidays to you all!

does the unlimited dining package include eating at Johnny Rockets?

oh thank you, i didnt think to go look at that~! You are right.. yay! Thanks again~!

so, if i have the unlimited dining package and want to eat at the other restaurants for dinner at 6 and then go to playmakers at 10 or 11pm each night for an after dinner treat and games, this would all be covered in the unlimited dining package .. ?!

Can someone tell me if Izumi Sushi is open at lunchtime normally? (on Symphony, if that matters)... Thanks!

Damn... now i am starting to feel bummed. I have been booking things in the planner and researching things for my trip in May 2021 , i really didnt think that this date would be in question... have already changed the booking 3 times ? I guess I will keep my plans as they are... and if they cancel us, i will have a plan B for 4th quarter 2021 or early 2022 in mind ...and just roll with whatever happens...

I have reserved room at the Port of Miami Holiday Inn for 2 nights leading up to the cruise (in May 2021) and was wondering where would be a nice beach to take an Uber to for a few hours on our full day there in Miami downtown/ port area? I really do not want to go to South Beach because we are not part of the 'beautiful people' crowd... looking for more of a family kind of beach, if we decide to do it... thanks! -Julie

YES!! I will definitely do that, because I loved the food there so much... i can't wait !!

oh, thank you both so much, that helps a lot!! I had no idea that they bring you fruit platter too...cool! Thanks !!

Does anyone have a copy of the Chill Cabanas menu that you can share here? Thanks!

Hey guys... so I ended up getting room 14568... balcony room next to the elevator and just a short piece down the hall from the solarium.. so I am pleased with that!! It is not portside but thats okay, i would rather have this proximity to the solarium than be on the port side at the other end of the ship... and changing rooms, i ended up saving 600 dollars... which was very odd to me! Also i found out that the room I did have was a 50% obstructed view, and had no idea! So thank you for all your help, i think i am going to be happy with this location!! -Julie

oh we had to change our date to May 22... i need to change that... the glass bottom boat excursion i booked is one of the RC ones on the cruise planner.. was just wondering if there were things we could do at the port area around the ship, once we got back... without having to do another excurion... if not, we might just get back on the ship early...

hey everyone! :) I booked the Glass Bottom Boat Tour for this Costa Maya Stop, since it was short and seemed like it would be easy and non -stressful. My question is, if we do the boat for an hour , early in the morning, is there a beach that we can hang out on after that, near the port... like walking distance, without booking any other excursions or having to travel? Thanks for the help!

YES!! This was my thought/ dream exactly.... looks like i wasn't the onnly one to figure out this little idea!! lol
