  2. My TA told me that the Alaska excursions book up quick so I didn't want to wait. Going to Alaska is on our "Bucket List" and with that, there are certain things we want to make sure that we get to do. The Type-A in me wants it all organized and on my spread sheet/calendar sooner rather than later . Hubby said to me last night, "Do I even want to know what this trip is costing us?" - Me - "Probably not!"
  3. I was so excited to see that my excursions that I had in my cart where marked down for a sale! I then processed to do my checkout before I lost the sale prices. Totally made my day!
  4. We have always stayed on "ship time"; however, I know that can sometimes change but they will inform you if that was the case.
  5. This is correct
  6. We are doing the 10 day Northbound from Vancouver to Seward in July 2018. We are flying into Vancouver a couple of days early and the 3 days inland at the end as part of our cruisetour.
  7. My phone has a mind of its own ?. Yes Crown & Anchor ?
  8. We are in port every day except one so I think we will just get the replenish and add alcohol as needed . We will take two bottles of wine on board anyway, and we each get BOGO wine from Q&A.
  9. The price for Deluxe on my Radiance cruise in July 2018 is $55/day and if one gets it the other one has too! Why are there so may different prices out there?
  10. I just checked the Deluxe package rates for our Alaska cruise on the Radiance July 2018. It is $55/day and both of us would have to get it! It is a very port intensive trip so we are leaning to the Replenish and just add the alcohol as needed. Now, if it goes on sale I may change my mind.
  11. I just took a multiple USB charger so that I could charge my iPhone, iPad, and iWatch. I got mine on Amazon and there are many to choose from. I packed it in my checked luggage and did not have any issues. I didn't have anything else to charge so I am not sure about the other type of extension coil/power strip.
  12. I heard on TV this morning that American Airlines has resumed flights to San Juan and that the others should be following soon after.
  13. We own our own business, so going without the phone is not possible; however, hubby was able to still be somewhat phone free as there wasn't any issues that the office couldn't take care of. I like being able to keep tabs on my Mother also as she is 87 years old and you just never know when an emergency could arise. I also use my phone as my camera, so I always had it with me most of the time.
  14. On the Oasis they still use CD's instead of flash drives. So I had to put it on a flash drive myself when I got home. You think they would be more up to date!
  15. It will be in your cabin waiting for you when you arrive.
  16. They scan your SeaPass every time. I got all digital pictures on a CD at the end of our cruise (Oasis). They had a special on the photo package on board (unknown to me) and I got a letter in our cabin informing me that it was now cheaper so they gave me the difference in OBC. I was pleasantly surprised.
  17. I have to stay mid-ship also. I do take a Bonine every night at bedtime (just as a precaution). The only time I really noticed any movement on the Oasis this summer was when I was in the bathroom for some reason (cabin or public area bathrooms). I am not sure why but it wasn't enough to make me sick, it was more that I noticed it.
  18. Lunch is from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm.
  19. We are doing a 3-day inland after our cruise & will be staying at the Marriott in Anchorage the last night & airport transportation is included. We do ride the train into Anchorage.
  20. We have 3 days post cruise. I know there are some tours listed; however, there is nothing listed at Talkeetna. Will we be there long enough to do anything? Here is the schedule (shows dates but not times): 20 Jul - Coach Transfer, Seward to Anchorage 20 Jul - Alaska Wild Life Center 20 Jul - Coach Transfer, Anchorage to Talkeetna 20 Jul - Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge 21 Jul - Coach Transfer, Talkeetna to Denali 21 Jul - Denali Natural History Tour 21 Jul - Denali Park Village 22 Jul - Coach Transfer, Talkeetna to Anchorage 22 Jul - Anchorage Marriott 23 Jul - Transfer to Anchorage Airport I'm not sure how long the travel times are, so I am looking for some info from ones who have done this already. I realize we eat on our own, so I am hoping there are plenty of foodie places to pick from. Any info will be greatly appreciated.
  21. I just checked my Alaska cruise (July 13th) and only voom 1-device is on sale.
  22. I hope your home was missed by Harvey! I have a good friend that lives in Houston (San Leon Area) and they have water all around them but not up to their house but roads to get out were under water. I can't even imagine what everyone is going thru right now and for the weeks and months to come.
  23. I like the idea of the Hop-On-Hop-Off bus and I will check Granville Island also. I don't want to waste a single minute while we are there. Any good places to eat?
  24. Mid-ship is better for motion. I always book a mid-ship for that reason.
  25. I have booked our Flight into Vancouver for the day before using Delta Skymiles so I only have to paid a total of $11.60 for the both of us to fly. So I am really happy about that. I decided to book Go Shuttle from the airport to our hotel with a private vehicle. We decided on the Marriott Pinnacle Downtown. We got a good rate with our points and it is a 7 minute walk to the cruise port. Not sure if we will walk it or take a taxi but I like having that option to choose from. Now I need to look and see what we can do/see in Vancouver as we land at 10:30 am. I haven't booked our return flight yet as it is out of Anchorage and I am trying to decide what will work best for us time wise.
