  1. If it is sold out, then it's sold out. They can't sell inventory they don't have. Someone could cancel but with the cruise past final payment and sailing soon. Its on a prayer. Also if they do get a reservation, the entire balance would be due. At most you can try to add them to an existing reservation if the room can hold them but you would be subjected to prevailing rates.
  2. You can order what you want. There is only one menu with options based on sun, water, etc. However, the menu as a whole is very seafood oriented. So, you might be hard-pressed to find apps your wife might enjoy.
  3. Celebrity elite and elite plus gets happy hour, like the old diamond members used to get on Royal. As people said status match is not the same as a perks match. Lots of loyalty programs will match status but you are subjected to their perks at that match.
  4. I recall being dissatisfied with my Skagway excursion. But the little town area was nice, so you could always just go into town, shop and eat.......if that's your thing.
  5. Not to turn this into anything but I don't think the economy wil actually falter too bad. I think it's just shifts. I noticed more people are booked on 3/4n and therefore the other sailings are seeing price drops because of demand. I also think the prices are starting to level our. $550pp for a 2n sailing was high. The same way $2kpp for Icon was ridiculous.
  6. The first night you posted a menu, I knew MSC was a NO for me. I also knew that if the suite program sucked, then Gen pop would be worse. I'm glad you got to sail with your parents, shockingly I am really wishing to sail with my mom . I don't know when that may be possible . Your dad got some good photos, so that's another positive.
  7. I had my first price drop in a while. Booked a 2n Oasis to add on to a 7n last September. It was $549pp. Today it was $299pp. So about $500 in savings.
  8. This will depend on if it is within final payment. If you are within that timeframe no you cannot even get OBC back. If you paid up and final payment has not passed, you may get OBC or they will allow you to upgrade,
  9. The key will show on your setsail( the pass you print or have on have on the app to show when you board) pass and sea pass card. Also on your sea pass card should be the type of beverage package you have purchased. The specialty dinning only shows in the app when you are on board and in the cruise planner now. In regard to specialty dining. Some like Chops has only one entree; but as many apps, sides and desserts as you like. If you do Izumi, it will be a la carte or prefix and either way that is valued at $39.99. Prefix is 1 small plate, 2 large and a dessert. I would say that it is a combination of the MDR and a typical restaurant because of the possible restrictions and upcharges.
  10. It is actual called a cheshire Cosmo, not a martini. Cosmopolitans are usually a sweet drink when martinis aren't.
  11. My brother loves the PM onion rings however he also said that for a traditional onion ring JR has some of the best.
  12. I agree with @WAAAYTOOO. I am not a seafood, let alone raw seafood person. I get the Udon and am always happy. I heard the ramen is also pretty good.
  13. I am unsure, because we book in advance and always do prefix, but I am sure they would have no problem converting the prefix to a la carte.
  14. Yes, Oasis class has a la carte sushi. You can buy the prefix to get a set reservation, or you can wait to board and make a reservation.
  15. Well I can only speak for myself but I usually have 5-8hrs of traveling after the cruise. Which means I'm not trying to cook.
  16. I'm glad you made it home without shenanigans. Pizza and a really good sandwich are my welcome home meals. I think a lot of us appreciate your review and can safely say that MSC isn't in our future .
  17. Wait I thought you were team no onions? What is this pickled onion nonsense????? I love @AshleyDillo mom and her bougieness. My mother is a step above trash in all honesty. She doesn't care about nothing, especially if she is paying and more so when I am
  18. I never saw these in the women's bathroom. but my brother mentioned the goat and cat when we were on Wonder.
  19. Omg your parents are living the dream. Remind me, what's their preferred line? This week went by fast but not too fast. Also I hate when people are positive for the sake of positive. That is truly what irks me because the real world isn't positive always. It's often a hot mess. SO MENTION IT ALL!!!!!!!! Just for reference that's what Bethany Frankel screams and I quote it all the time.
  20. I think the true problem is entitlement. I hate that people feel like they can skirt the 18/21+ rule. I can't ever recall a time when I went to an adult activity where someone didn't bring a child and then get mad.
  21. We did this once and someone in my party had meat induced nightmares. But as mentioned waiters will come to your table with a meat selection and ask if you want. Unlike land-based restaurants they don't come back around, which really sucks if you don't eat beef, lamb, or pork and want to get your fill of just one meat. However they will try to adjust for dietary purposes.
  22. Go somewhere and people watch. But given how they seem to be behaving in YC. I would imagine gen pop is the filthiest reality show ever.
  23. I often shy away from the cabonarra because it's so heavy. That one looks pretty good.
  24. The nasty way people behave with food on ships!!!! A full ice cream cone melting on the floor is heathen behavior.
  25. I don't ever recall seeing the fruit bread . But then again, my bread focus is chocolate croissants, the cinnamon rolls and biscuits. I don't mind a GK/GT lunch on embarkation day because MDR night one is the worst menu, and I can fill up on lunch. But the Italian restaurants in general will always be the heaviest lunches to me.
