Keeping my fingers crossed that my November 8 sailing aboard the Oasis is on. I REALLY don't want to wait until next year to cruise. Fingers crossed!

Well, that's not good! I've had been feeling super confident that we will sail for my November 2020 cruise. Now, with the whole CDC thing and now NCL cancelling Oct cruises, I could actually see no sailings for 2020. I certainly hope that doesn't happen, but I gotta admit, each day that passes, I am less confident. I guess the real test will be if Carnival does indeed sail first.

I have a cruise this November aboard the Oasis and was seriously considering booking another cruise for next year, but after reading this, I may just hold off for cruising next year and do something different. To many changes and reactions by RCI. I will have to wait and see how this sailing goes (if it goes) this November. I really hope RCI thinks about what they may do to themselves long term vs short term.

This is perfect!!! Thank you so much!! 👍

I arrive and depart from Ft Lauderdale. Given that the airport is close by, I'd like to go with a 12:00 pm departure, but like many have said, that "X" factor is, who long will debarkation take??? Even with me doing my own luggage carry off. Since it's a Sunday return, sure would like to arrive home around 2:00 vs 6:00 or so!

Have a question for you all! I am trying to figure my return flight home after the cruise. I have a couple of options? Flight departing a little after 12:05 p.m. or a 2:30 departure. I'd like to book a 12:00 departure, but is that to early? I can be off the ship the second they allow as I always take my own luggage off the ship. What would you all recommend?

I like that idea! I'd like to know the hotels closest to Port Everglades. That seems to be my choice of ports when we cruise. I always fly in the day of, but this year, I plan on arriving a day early and would like to plan on that from now on.

Unfortunately, no. Also, That's one heck of a drive! I've done D.C. to Daytona before and that's about 16 hours???. FLL is probably another 5 hours! No thanks!!! 😆😆

Hello all, We hopefully will be cruising November 8 aboard the Oasis. I'm looking at prices from Wash, D.C. to Ft. Lauderdale and can't believe the prices I am seeing! Southwest for 2 is close to $950 for 2!!! Jet Blue is a little better at $860??? I usually on fly Delta, but their prices are way high and their flights really don't work for us. Any recommendations out there? I've been pricing round trip, one way with different airlines coming and going, whatever I can think of. Just crazy how pricey flights are!

I'm assuming this doesn't apply to the Delta Platinum AMEX card I have????

Hello all, We (hopefully) will be sailing this November aboard the Oasis and one of our stops will be in Cozumel. 2 excursions I am thinking of are either snorkeling or swimming with dolphins. Curious to see if anyone here has done either in Cozumel? If so, who do you recommend for booking either excursion? Thanks!

Yes, it works! I had it last cruise and it worked perfectly. Made calls to the mainland with no issues at all 👍

May be a dumb question? Do they only handle RCI cruises or can you use their services for other destinations as well? While we mostly cruise, I have been thinking of a Key West vacation as well. Just not sure if they would handle something like that? Thanks again!

Hello all, after many years of booking cruises myself, I am FINALLY looking into someone else do everything instead of me 😆 I wanted to ask those of you that use MEI what are your thoughts about them (since they are a sponsor here on this site) Are all of their agents excellent or is there one 2 2 that are tops or better? I am considering my first ever Alaska cruise next year and have no clue what I should see or where to stay in Seattle if I arrive a day early, etc.. I just don't feel like researching everything like I usually do. Just hoping to get some honest good and bad of MEI (hopefully not any!) I'm also open to any other recommendations if you have them! Thanks all!! 👍 Carlos
