That sounds like a blast. Playing with people you don't know would add a fun element to the game! Kris10May also known as BrewerFan1967

I'm surprised too. Still not much going on. Looking forward to Thursday and check-in day.

Galveston used to have a WebCam at their port and I can't seem to get this to work either. Interested to know if this is still live or not.

Just booked today for sailing. Was supposed to sail March of 2020 so looking forward to getting back on the water.

I'm in for certain. We were supposed to sail today on the Liberty of the Seas out of Galveston.

I've had too many great suitcases ruined by baggage handlers - not blaming but it's a reality - that I no longer spend a fortune on suitcases. I now go to TJ Maxx or Marshall's and buy a case of the right size and know that it will be with me for a while but not forever. And I made a pledge to never again but a black bag. Get something bright or a funny print and you'll spot it right away on the luggage carousel.

Thanks, KenCP I was afraid of this but really appreciate your reply. Does Liberty of the Seas have the Freestyle soda machine? (fingers crossed...)

I'm sailing on Liberty of the Seas March 22 and am planning on bringing a couple of Yeti-sytle insulated cups for my husband and I to use. Is there a limit on the size that most bartenders will allow? I have 20 ounce and the 30 ounce. I was planning on the 20 ounce for coffee and the 30 ounce for drinks from the bartenders. (we purchased the unlimited drink package) Also - will the bartenders make the drink directly in the cup? Thanks in advance for any answers. ??

Thanks for the tip. Red Velvet is one of my favorites. Do you recall if it was a dessert offered in the Main Dining Room?

I'm on Liberty in March...no wonder I couldn't break the code. ? Thank you, Twangster!

Help me out. What is CK?

Have a wonderful time! 70 more days for us. Can't wait to hear all about your cruise.

I believe that one Voom package can be shared by multiple devices but can be used by one device at a time. Is that what you meant, Twangster?

Thank you for your reply. I will be skipping the Travel Router.

I watched a YouTube video that was full of recommendations of what to pack/bring on your cruise. One thing recommended was a Portable Travel Router. I am under the impression that it will allow you to use the WiFi for multiple devices from one subscription. Anyone familiar with this? The device is only $25 on Amazon. We have purchased one Voom subscription with our drink package. Any advice would be appreciated.

Kathy - Thank you so much for your reply. Sounds like it is super easy!

I recently learned that we can not make reservations ahead of time for our signature dining. Have you experienced any issues with booking those reservation once you board the ship? I was told they hold some times for others that must reserve on the ship.

I did not book with Expedia or use Rakuten for a rebate but I did book with Costco. We will receive a $140 gift card when we return and while we are on the cruise (Liberty of the Seas in March) we will have one free signature dinner at either Chops Grille or Giovanni's and either lunch or dinner at Johnny Rockets. I'm hoping for the same good results that you had.

We've book our cruise with Costco and it includes a free signature dinner at either Chops Grille or Giovanni's Table. We'll be sailing on the Liberty of the Seas. When I went to book a reservation, the dinner cost went into my cart. Anyone familiar how I redeem this free dinner? Also, which night is the lobster dinner in the MDR? I'd like to not book my dinner on that night. Thanks!

I have a 'hopefully' simple question. If I take the Sushi making class by myself, will my husband be able to join me to eat all of the sushi that I make? Thanks in advance for your answers! Sailing March 22 - 29, 2020 on Liberty of the Seas

Ten years ago, I took my first cruise and found a different message board similar to this and looked for as many tips as I could find. One tip that I took away was to take a small box of Cheerios from the breakfast buffet to take with us when we went snorkeling in Cozumel. I got all situated with my fins, snorkel, mask, life vest and Cheerios and headed out into the water. I really have very little experience with snorkeling but was enjoying all of the fish that I was seeing. I decided it was time to feed the fish. Hmmm, how am I going to open this bag of cereal? I'm floating in the water and have nothing sharp and only wet fingers. I worked and worked and finally ripped the bag open, only to have the cereal all go flying in the water around me. Instantly it was a feeding frenzy and there were fish all around me, touching me and gobbling up the cereal. I freaked out - and quickly got away from all of the fish that were surrounding me. Needless to say, my friend's container of Cheerios went back on board with us. Unopened. ?

I'm curious about this part of the question. Does the Windjammer switch up the menu nightly?

Now that makes complete sense...does that happen often?

I'm curious if there is an advantage to pre-paying for the gratuities. I booked our cruise through Costco and I remember the agent mentioning it but it was all kind of a blur. Thanks!
