We drove to Niagara Falls (Canada side) last week and did not need it.

We used GoPort and had a great experience. We will use them again for sure.

If you haven't done your excursions and such then use you AmEx thru Cruise Planner for that stuff.

We are flying in to EWR (October 19) and will be staying at the Springhill Suites Newark Airport. If you are doing the Park and Cruise package - how are you getting to the cruise port?

Even though I use a TA, I still put a reminder in my calendar 3 weeks before final payment is due. With all the other family members making their payments I find it extremely hard to believe that no one mentioned it to all family going......

Speak for yourself - We love the 70's night! There is always a large crowd anytime we have cruised.

I feel the same way! We do not like Nassau at all but we loved Coco Cay.

Same here. I think they have sugar free vanilla too if I remember correctly.

The Key is worth it for us. Everyone is different in what they like/use of the Key but it works for us.

We stayed that the Marriott also. There were 4 of us and one was having to use a knee scooter which made getting a taxi (one big enough) hard to come by so the hotel staff took us in their van (cost of a total of $25). The people at the hotel were great.

We like the Key. If you don't carry our luggage off you will have your bags all in a separate area from the rest making it easier to get your luggage.

Several years ago, we set a per day limit for our Granddaughters. It may have changes since then.

We have a customized magnet that we put on our door. I like to use it so help find our door easier (in the beginning). I just bought a new one and it is currently on our refrigerator just waiting until October....

I like the paper version also. We like to plan ahead and go thru it together each night before bed. We don't cruise until October (Jewel) but you can be sure that I request them as soon as we meet our cabin steward.

In July 2018, we cruise (Radiance) up the Northern Passage. We have AT&T and we had cell reception almost the entire way as you could see land on both sides in the distance. When we got out of range, we would put our phones in Airplane Mode. As a matter of fact, we had better cell reception there than we had at our house!

We always pick our cabins at booking to avoid this exact thing.

We have purchased the Key several times now and will continue to do so as long as the price is a good one.

Same for me except I have AT&T. I use WiFi calling at home as I don't get good signal at my house (i0S).

We have used the Key twice so far and it is well worth it for us. We always get the WiFi, we like the dedicated Key line for check in, handing over carry on bags as you to enter for lunch (our bags were in our cabin when we were allowed to enter, but one of the most important features (in my opinion) is the dedicated Key bagging area on disembarkation. This made that whole process a game changer for us.

This is exactly why we don't do the buffet much. We carry hand sanitizer in our pocket as use it as soon as we sit down if we do choose to eat in there.

Early (I would like mid day if I would chose. I do want Ice in the morning and evening for my wine bucket and regular ice bucket. I would be happy to get the ice myself if that is doable.) We make the bed as soon as we put our feet on the floor however, I want clean towels for showering before dinner and my trash empty so as long as it is done before say 3 pm I am fine with it either way. We usually look over the compass after dinner to plan the next day. Like (would I refer twice daily - of course but it's not a deal breaker by any stretch)

We always fly in the day before now as we have a "too close for comfort" call a couple of times.

We are light drinkers also and we get the refreshment package as I like my Iced coffee and such. We would like buy a drink of we wanted one and it was way cheaper than the Deluxe Drink Package.

When we used them, they have a set time to pick up. The shuttle goes to several hotels before heading to port. You can't pick your pickup time. They were prompt as far as arriving to the hotel you just have to be out at the pick up area before time with all your luggage and etc.

We were on the Oasis OTS when we ate breakfast there, I didn't realize that it was only on that class. The breakfast was really good though!!
