  1. Welcome @TheBoss518. Thanks I love all colors of hair but purple is my favorite . I hope Texas is good to you. The people were so friendly, it was the warmest welcome.
  2. Miami has new express pass they are giving people who complete the entire process beforehand.
  3. I hope your flight is smooth. I know Texas has better weather than we currently are experiencing. It's 12 degrees in Chicago, sunny but . I have two issues with southwest, the unassigned seats and the fact they ususlly only pay for one carousel for luggage. So you wait forever for checked bags.
  4. Just wow. First the Boss's hair is beautiful, hopefully the picture isn't just showing high/low lights Second these luggage totals are .......illuminating. My brother and I share a checked bag, which we keep under the 50lb limit. Then my carry-on is 23-28lbs. I don't think I've ever even made 100lbs in totality of all bags and my longest trip was almost a month.
  5. They are cold. The only hot item you might get is if Sorrento's is located in that Cafe promenade, which is the case on some of the older ships.
  6. So wow. I mean the average luggage is under 6lb ...........so what do people bring that 28lb for children/teenagers means they don't have nothing in there I consistently keep my luggage at a good 28-35lbs and this includes a fan......which is often the heaviest thing in my luggage. Also, yaaaaaay just two days away from sailing and shenanigans.
  7. Wait.......I didn't know you could combine a money off with a free cert . I thought they had to be the same. So I can upgrade an interior/balcony cert to a balcony/suite with a money off ??????? I think you might have played raking bacon, which is my favorite game on allure, it is located by the bar.
  8. I don't do well in the beginning; I find I can usually only come out even or win when it comes to early morning gambling and gambling when the casino is open in port. If it is night and popping, I am just losing my money.
  9. We can thank bezos for our luggage scale. It's a lifesaver, we have never had to be those people removing stuff at the airport and having to repack. I watched so many people doing it and had some vintages do it our trips.
  10. What do you mean by times? There will be a suite lounge and deck on Oasis and Quantum class. I believe Icon has a full neighborhood. There is happy hour usually between 5 and 8:30. Free drinks are only in the suite lounge. And served for dinner at CK during those hours.
  11. Because Giovanni's differs between kitchen and table. But I think icon has kitchen. But I would do either over the rest or the choices.I would never suggest Hooked because I'm not into seafood and Chop's is my least favorite of the fleet.
  12. I got this email. I actually get all the emails. I'm sure it's because I have booked for so many people and despite putting in their emails I get some meant for them. I would like a combination of loyalty programs that are aligned.
  13. I noticed the tags revert to the lowest level on my last S2S2S. Our mom was staying in the room with us on the first sailing and our tags said platinum instead of D+. The next sailing it said D+ because we both were.
  14. Yes after I believe March/April of 22 they started doing things the original/new way. So, they scan your seapass for shows but not the WJ. They release so many seats online and then hold back reservations for boarding day. You can always go to the box office on boarding day and hope for better times. I say go to the box office because if you release your current reservations and try to do it yourself, you risk losing them altogether.
  15. I typed "should be a lunch" because it is my understanding that if they do not have enough consecutive cruisers, they might not do the lunch. I don't know what the criteria is only that some people have reported no lunch.
  16. Do let them know you are B2B and take what you will need and can't live without on embarkation day. In some cases, they will let you back in the room and some cases they will not. I stayed in the same room, but my cabin steward changed, and he didn't know I was B2B, so my room was the last serviced and he wouldn't let me back in to get anything from my room. They should have a lunch for consecutive cruisers and while it isn't anything fancy it will be a quieter experience on embarkation day. Internet will cut off around 10am or when they let the first new pax back on, so be prepared for that if you purchase Voom. If you have specialty dining, you will have first dibs.
  17. My math says .80729 or 81%
  18. I would say a year or two ago no problem but now, unless you are star class, I really can't see them honoring the request.
  19. The margaritas at Sabor on Allure were so bad. I only drink at home on 2 occasions Christmas and new years. But I love a good marg, prosecco or daiquiri and I know quality. Idk who taught them at Sabor but they need to go back to school. The lines for ELF on Allure were crazy and nobody washes their hands. Also I was looking to sail out of Bayonne in Oct 2025 and them prices are bananas.
  20. I love Wonder and I really like Oasis. They are equal in the sense that they both have one specialty restaurant that I love, Mason jar on Wonder and Portside on Oasis. Wonder is newer and has better shows. However, I love longer cruises so an 8-day will always win out over a 7-day.
  21. The CK menu is the main reason why suites aren't a draw for me. I am such a basic woman when it comes to food, even the Chop's server said so on Wonder (I like my medium steak plain, no sauce). But it is great when I hear stories like this, I just don't want to always be a bother. It is super funny because I only eat steak and drink when I cruise.
  22. I don't understand what you mean. On Oasis, Quantum and now Icon class ships they require reservations for shows and they always check by scanning your seapass until open seating starts around 15min before the doors open. Since your sailing is in less than 2wks I imagine all of the available reservations are taken and you will have to reserve when you get on board or stand in the standby line.
  23. When you are drunk the real you comes through, so maybe your coworker will tell you he wants to retire......or jetski. I know I am a shenanigans-magnet. It's the face, it's too friendly.
  24. I think it's the humans. The coffee machine in the casino on Wonder was broken too, the staff said a pax did it. I take somethings the crew say with a grain of salt, but I can believe human error is at play. I also noticed a lot of first timers on Allure, these Oasis class ships give people amusement/theme park without the prices.
  25. I believe there was a topic about this, but the search feature hasn't yielded the results. I recalled reading if you bring your own equipment, you can snorkel without paying the excursion fee at PDCC? Is this correct? It used to be $35, now its upwards of $50+ taxes, all you are paying for is to rent the equipment, right?
