  1. I second that...and give Kelley at MEI a WOO, WOO, WOOOOOOOO for getting us a no cost upgrade today. I honestly feel kinda guilty for asking her to check on that when I know she's just flooded with work. This will be me in my new room:
  2. Emailed my TA this morning. She's looking to see if I have any potential upgrades out there for better or equal to my Royal Up bid.....while I annoy all of you on these boards and pretend to work.
  3. If they feel any way about it, they havent voiced those concerns with her.
  4. My wife is an RN, and we have discussed this with our group, at length. We are sailing on April 04 and, to quote her, "theres no way we are canceling." Thats not to say she/we feel that everyone should have such an attitude toward it. If you have a compromised immune system, respiratory issues, and are of advanced age....you should have concerns, just as you should have been concerned of other potential risks. For us, in our 40s, in good health....and our children, also in good health, we have little concern of the actual virus. We have more concern over peoples reaction to it resulting in missed ports (if that happens, oh well) or someone coming down with norovirus or influenza and it resulting in a quarantine (inconvenient at worst). My heart does go out to those affected and losing loved ones, same as it does for anyone losing someone for any reason.
  5. When someone tells me the govt. "advises all Americans not to travel by cruise ship"
  6. At this point, I have prepared my family for the possibility that we may end up with a different itinerary. We booked our cruise FOR the itinerary. ? Eh....it's life. Outta my control. I second that as long as the bars are open....I'm good. Enjoy Costa Maya, and the rest of your cruise!
  7. Carbs don't count on cruises....calories, sugar, nothing....
  8. Can they do anything about people buying up all the daggum toilet paper? Good grief.....but nobody is overreacting ....nooooooo. ?
  9. Hard to say 100% as I'm sailing in 28 days and still don't have a full schedule on the app. I suppose you could look in the Cruise Compass section for the most recent sailing on HOS with a similar itinerary and get a good estimate.
  10. Wonder what their time frame for this is? I have received nothing from RCCL or my TA for our Apr. 04 sailing. Maybe they're waiting till closer to begin the email flood?
  11. Perfect! I figured you for being up for a data challenge! ?
  12. You can give the house your money before you set foot on the boat? Perfect!
  13. Cruise planner now has Casino options, so you can give the house your money before you even set foot in Casino Royale!
  14. Failing to plan is planning to fail....and I never fail at having a good time. ?
  15. We (My wife and I, as well as my brother, his wife, my mom and stepdad) will be the ones trying to sterilize our insides via alcohol by the pool....while the kids are in Adventure Ocean.
  16. I ended up booking her, purely because it was the only RCCL ship going to Roatan (my wife is from Honduras) the week before Easter ( kids Spring Break). Hope we dont end up missing that port! ? Good to hear you enjoyed it, and shes a good ship. Like @Matt says, I doubt seriously I would find a "bad" ship in the fleet (in my opinion).
  17. I just booked/reserved parking at Parkway Parking, per recommendations Ive received, and overall reviews from various sites, and price. Anyone have experience with them? They state they have several shuttles running continuously, and its secure. Hope so!
  18. @nova_gal I posses no ORIGINAL wisdom in regards to cruising. Im preparing to take my 6th cruise a month from today, and this will be my 1st after having discovered this forum/message board. IT WAS A GAME CHANGER and I cant tell you how prepared I feel for my cruise. I, now, feel like I did every previous cruise by the seat of my pants, and cruised like a savage. It never occurred to me to have the continental breakfast appetizers every morning, either. But once I read about it on here.....BOOM. Done. The people here are amazing, and I too am eternally grateful for them.
  19. I am pretty excited at the thought of waking up to doughnuts, danishes, bagels and fruit with my coffee.....EVERY. SINGLE. MORNING.
  20. Ive never been anywhere that long. Not vacation, not business, not HOME. Kudos to you. Enjoy it! Interested to read about it.
  21. Are you on the same sailing, trying to outbid by a dollar?
  22. Just a guess: They have either accepted or denied that bid, and it just hasnt processed through to you being able to see it that way. From what Ive read, in the past, you can modify a bid up until they make a decision on it. Good luck!!!!
  23. I, too, have a pending offer for an Apr. 04 sailing. I suspect that just means its "pending acceptance or denial......we will let you know". I think they wait it out, as long as possible (day or so before) and see what fills up at asking price. I also suspect they start at the highest bids, fill rooms with bidders till theyve filled all possible rooms with people that bid on them. This is just what I would do if it was my program....
