    For me, both.
    I love them. I took an international flight for 9 days and brought a large suitcase because I over pack. I only filled half of the suitcase with clothes - that's huge for me plus on this trip I knew I had a lot of gifts to bring back.  I rolled what could be rolled which helped. I lived out of the suitcase (many different hotels) and was able to use my cubes like dresser drawers. Usually my suitcase is a mess by the time I get home but this time it was fairly neat. I now swear by them. I even consolidated clean clothes and made dirty clothes packing cubes.

    Hey Joe....I've used only one per bag using the wire loop ties, no problems yet. Using two certainly wouldn't be a problem though.
    Thanks for your service and all others that responded! I wasn't on a sub but was a Plankowner on USS Biddle (DLG-34), later became CG-34. Two extended cruises to Tonkin Gulf, the first was an around-the-world cruise. Anchors aweigh!!

    USS Andrew Jackson Gold (SSBN619) Gold 6/83-10/87.  After that I was at NSSF in Groton for three years.

    I agree with @lambdabeta, get to the cruise port as early as possible so you can maximize your embarkation day time onboard.
    Regarding the app, it's known to be inaccurate or incomplete in other areas (onboard activities, menus, etc.), so it wouldn't surprise me to find that it's still on Atlantic Time if they sailed up that way last.

    I have never seen a ship that didn't match the local time of the port it was in.  That being said, I would arrive before noon your time.  The earlier you can get to the port the faster you can start your cruise.  They usually start letting passengers on about 10:30-11 am.  Enjoy your cruise!

    Curiosity Question
    How many Royal Luggage Tags do you put on each piece of luggage ?
    I have been putting two on each bag ( one on the top and one on the side ) as a precaution in case one of them fall off.

    The D+ also used to get priority seating in the theaters but they have now taken that perk away in many cases as well.  With The Key program my guess is that the D+ are going to be SOL for priority seating from now on.
    Denial of entrance into the Suites lounge and lack of priority seating in the theaters are the 2 primary reasons we cruise exclusively in suites these days.
