Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from MikeK in Cash on cruise
We always carry at least $100 per day in cash. Out of that, $100 is in small denomination bills, $5 and $1, specifically for tipping.

Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from IRMO12HD in Set Sail Pass Question
We carry a printed copy as a back up. The primary is a screen shot of our Set Sail passes on Cell phone. I have been doing that with airline tickets for a few years. The screen shot means you are not at the mercy of failing wi-fi

Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from Fox Forlenza in How many "Formal Nights" should we pack for on an 8 nighter? Does the ship have certain nights for formal night or is it by choice? (Allure of the Seas sailing Jan 8)
Formal nights, whether one or two, are a wondeful opportunity for me to see Sheryl dressed in her finery. Therefore I do my utmost to ensure I dress to match, wearng either blazer and tie, or my tux. It is a small thing to do to see such beauty.

Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from Iluv4n6 in Ever Fly to Fort Myers for Cruising out of Port Everglades or Miami?
Until the Covid shut downs, I flew in and out of Ft Myers every week near enough. I live about 40 miles north of there. That being said I would not fly in on a budget airline, nor on the same day of cruise to allow for delays and cancellations.
Technically it is under 3 hours to either Port Everglades, or Port Miami. However, there are always unpredictable surprises such as an overturned tanker on I-75 which happened today. So if you are flying into RSW, plan on doing it at least 24 hours ahead.
In your situation, I would choose the additional costs of flyng into Miami or Ft Lauderdale if only for peace of mind and less hassle.

Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from FManke in No Black Friday Deals!?!?
I have been monitoring several items for our Allure sailing in March. I have to say, none of them changed in value at all.

Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from foxrunner in Coco Cay 2 ships C.C. Beach Club?
For our last trip on Freedom (Sep 27) I booked at $161.00 using the repricing option, that went to $124.00 then down to $91.00 so it works

Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from Neesa in Allure January 22, 2023 Charter?
Thank you for the responses. I had rather thought this is what was being inferred, but didnt want to assume anything. To each their own I guess

Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from WAAAYTOOO in Has anyone received an EMed kit yet with a later expiration date, not just the extension ?
Alas the expiry date on the box has come and gone. As we cannot validate the extension of the lot # they are off the market.

And just like that, taken !

Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from BrianB in Masks/Bars - How did you do with mask policy on your cruise?
We didnt have issues on our recent 4 days on Freedom. Mask off outside areas, back on when inside unless at a bar or in a restaurant. Saw lots sitting at the bar in the R bar, although as we prefer a table anyways, not an issue.
All part of lifes rich tapestry.

Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from CruisingfromClayton in Cruise Documents
Always print them out and take them with you. Back up is sometimes a wise move. This way if no internet connection, you still have a way to board

Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from karmamule in Has anyone received an EMed kit yet with a later expiration date, not just the extension ?
We made the mistake of doing just that. With 3 cruises in the future, (Freedom Sep 27, Allure March 13, 2022 and Serenade Oct 29, 2022) it seemed like a good idea to buy the 6 pack.
However, when received they have an expiry date of December 2021, ergo, four of the kits were wasted.
We still have them so if anyone who wants them prior to their expiry date wants to get in touch, they can be freebies.

Andy & Sheryl Unwin got a reaction from KristiZ in for those who have done the E-med covid test
We did it using the camera built into the all in one computer. Prior to the test, I accessed the camera app, and adjusted the angle of the screen so I could see a clear patch of desk, and me together.
When we connected to Navi Online, all was good and it went without a hitch.
Rather than doing a trial test, maybe just try accessing the camera app and adjusting the view
