  1. We’ve been there twice. Once for the cooking school which was loads of fun. The last time was with the grandkids. The water park was a hit with the older ones and the food was okay. The drinks were good and the beach wasn’t too crowded. We like the pool the best (we’ll Nana and the smaller grands ?)
  2. We got the deluxe drink package when it was on sale, so counting the bottle water, specialty coffees, and 2-3 drinks, then it is a good deal. Our cruise this summer is with 3 other adult couples so we will use it more that if we were cruising with the grand kids (which we just do the refreshment package then).
  3. I have the lanyard with the plastic sleeve. This way I can wear it even off the ship and have a place to put in photo ID (drivers license) in there also.
  4. Same here, I have to put my email address in and cannot use my old ID login. After I am logged in, I can do everything and see everything....(Just now knocked on wood )
  5. We took ours last summer; however, we only used it off ship. We got some great pictures and videos.
  6. I use a TA for my booking; however, I can still book my drink packages, shows, and excursions thru my cruise planner myself. To me, its the best of both worlds!
  7. I got a notice on my phone from AmEx that I had two credits from RCI for $189 each. I finally figured it out - they cancelled our excursion in Ketchikan, Alaska. I never got an email or anything explaining what the credits were for. I went on this morning and booked another excursion but REALLY??? Why did I not get some type of notification that this happened?
  8. I have a pair of Bose noise canceling headphones and I love them. They have their own case that I put in my carry-on. I don't like anything sticking into my ear so ear-buds are out!
  9. I can't sleep on a plane either; however, hubby is asleep before we even take off...
  10. https://www.amazon.com/Travelers-Choice-Amsterdam-Upright-Rolling/dp/B004E0Z3P4 This is the one we used and we checked it. Did not have to have anything pressed.
  11. No. We are Platinum and had the same thing this past summer for the Oasis. However, we did not have to wait long for them to get checked in.
  12. You can get the Coffee Card and you can get seltzer or tonic water free at any bar. Hubby got tonic water on the Oasis last summer at no cost.
  13. I pre-purchased the all photo package; however, (unknown to me), the had a sale price on board. One evening upon returning to our room from dinner, I have a letter telling me about the sale and that they gave me the difference in OBC. I was pleasantly surprised.
  14. We were on the Oasis this past July. We were in an ocean view balcony and saw our cabin steward often in the hall. He always greeted us and we couldn't complain at all. I have never done the MTD; however, I like the main dinning room because I like to have the same table and wait staff. I like to have a cup of coffee with dessert and don't like "strong" coffee, so I asked for "half hot water" and "half coffee"! (I'm weird...). After the first night, I didn't have to even asked, they had it the way I liked it from then on! We were there in mid-July so there were lots of kids but never seemed too crowded.
  15. That is a no-brainer! If it goes down you can just cancel and re-purchase. We got that price on our upcoming Alaska cruise.
  16. Norway is on our bucket list when we celebrate our retirement! *** 6 more years ***
  17. I like an Old Fashioned every once in a while
  18. Buffalo Trace is close to our house! We are all around the Kentucky Bourbon Trail! His favorite is Woodford Reserve Rye. Our friends own Angels Envy! There is no shortage of Good Bourbon in Kentucky!
  19. Our Alaska cruise (July) will be with 3 other couples and with having the drink package I will want to try some new (to me) drinks. Any suggestions? Hubby is a bourbon guy mostly but likes the occasional frozen drink. Me on the other hand like the fruity, frozen, and wine.
  20. We have a post cruisetour at the end of our Alaska cruise in July. Will they give us special luggage tags and sit our luggage out the night before or do we just carry off all our luggage when we disembark?
