  1. We stayed at Springhill Suites Newark Liberty International Airport in October and will be staying again in June for our cruise. Nice hotel.
  2. The Key has been worth it for us. We have done the Key on our last 4 cruises and on our 2 upcoming ones.
  3. Our last two cruises were on the Jewel of the Seas. I purchased wine thru Royal ahead of time and all the wine ordered was in our cabin when we arrived. However, the cabin steward did not have cork screws and they called the dinning room/room service people and they would only come to our cabin and open the wine for us!!! I took it down to one of the bars and they opened it for me. After that we just took a bottle down unopened to the dining room and they opened it can kept it for us the next night. From now on, I will take my own cork screw. I actually have a Royal Caribbean one that they gave us years ago so I will just bring that one. I even went down to Guest Services where they told me to take it to a bar to get opened....This has August 2022 and October 2023.
  4. I just did this in October. We rented a car from Hertz (thru Delta). You have to take a taxi to Hertz. We drove to Montreal airport for our flight. We didn't do the trains either due to us not familiar with them either. The only problem we had was trying to get to the rental return lot at the airport. We finally pulled up to departures and hubby went in and asked. The airport was about 2 hrs drive. Once you get out of downtown (Hertz) you are on a major highway so the drive wasn't hard at all (except for the 5" of snow falling like crazy!).
  5. We loved it! We even got snowed on ! There is a lot to see and we love the Jewel. There were a lot of excursions in each port of call so a wide variety to choose from. The food/service was excellent also. This was our first Diamond cruise so the 4 drink coupons were put to good use. I wish we had time to have done a B2B on this one.
  6. The 70's night was the most attended thing on our last several cruises. We look forward to the 70's more than anything else. There were many that dressed the part and we enjoyed all of it! We are 66 and no canes or walkers here; however, so what if there were - the music was way better back then and what is out there now! As a matter of fact, the dance floor was full and many were on upper floors dancing & singing too.
  7. It is the Fall Foliage Canada Cruise on the Jewel. They only have like three (October). We were on October 20-30th this year. We went out of Cape Liberty port and ended in Quebec City.
  8. The Jewel is one of our favorite ships! We just sailed on her twice with the latest being October 20-30th this year.
  9. We have the Key for our Jewel OTS cruise this Friday. The email said arrive at 11:30 am. The earliest I could pick on the app was Noon but we will get there at 11:30 am. We have had the Key several times and 11:30 was our time with all of them.
  10. It is fall break for my Grands this week and it is fall break here next week so that is probably why so many kids are there.
  11. One of our favorite things to do! Sometimes hubby will come off with a "I can't un-see that!" or maybe even "I need new eyeballs!" (Our youngest granddaughter coined the "new eyeballs" saying
  12. We have done the Key several times which makes it so nice that they put our bags in our room before we are allowed in there.
  13. It really doesn't bother me with what everyone wears (such as PJ pants, shorts or similar) in the dining room, shows and such places. Once they set down, you don't really see that anyway. It doesn't change how much a enjoy my meal or the show.
