    sammyg reacted to wannabecruiseexpert in The Cruise I Said Wouldn’t Happen - Allure Star Class, September 10-17   
    I personally feel the opposite of most regarding the genie and shorter cruises. While I do feel bad for the genie, I think having one on a shorter sailing is even more important than a longer one. We booked one of the 3 nighters on Utopia and I don't think I would have booked a non SC room. I will need the genie's help to navigate the shows and dinners, since EVERYONE will be trying to book the same shows/dinners. I just feel like having the genie will allow us to do and experience so much more.

    30-40 min from cruise port to SeaTac airport. 
    Assuming you don’t take your time getting off the ship, you should be fine.

    It’s almost here! Our very first Star Class cruise!

    We don’t usually do cruise shirts, but DD and I tie died shirts at a scouting campout in October, and somehow that became the plan for these shirts. I’m not sold on the idea, but the kids and DH are all in, so we’ll see how it goes!
    This sailing will be myself, DH, DS (11), and DD (14). We typically sail in the 2 BR Grand / 2 BR Owner’s suite, but when Allure moved to Galveston, and the 2 BR Aqua theater suite was the same price as our typical 2 BR on Liberty, it was a done deal! I booked the morning the schedule opened and then emailed Michelle @ MEI to transfer to her. That was March 3, 2021, so we’ve been (not so patiently) watching the countdown clock on this one for over 2 years.
    We received the Genie Survey 60 prior to sail date. We didn’t ask for anything crazy, but we did mention this cruise was right between a couple birthdays. A couple weeks after DS’s birthday and a couple weeks before DH’s. Also, we missed a big 15th anniversary celebration due to covid, so we would like to take part in a wine tasting if possible (we honeymooned in Napa Valley and San Francisco).
    Show reservations opened 48 days prior to sail date.
    Contact from our Genie 31 days prior to sail date. We have Smitha.

    sammyg reacted to Tanner in What are some things onboard the ship that just make you cringe?   
    I'm really at a loss at here.  Did this guy actually get drunk and behave obnoxiously?  Did he actually start a fight?  If he did either of those things it's not okay but I'm sure it's more about him as a person and nothing to do with his appearance.  This type of behaviour has been observed amongst all sorts.  If he did neither of these things you instantly thought of I'd suggest you are the problem.

    I am the type of person that spends a lot of time in the gym to be healthy, compete in powerlifting, and to be in shape for my physically demanding career.  Truth be told I could not reach a post it note in the middle of back.  But I don't use steroids, I don't drink very much, and I don't fight people.  I'm a loving father, husband, and a fan of cruising.  While I'm way more interested in enjoying time with my family than what others think about me I find it "cringe-worthy" that there are people in the background being so judgemental about things that instantly pop into their minds. 

    Your post has some validity about behavioural issues but you have seriously missed the mark by judging people based on their appearance or attributing an individuals poor behaviour to having a direct correlation to how they happen to look. 

    One thing we can agree on is elevators that stop at every floor.  Take care!
