We are cruising on Utopia August 19th. My wife wants to spend a few days in Disney and then get on the ship. The 4 day length is perfect. We love this size ship, not too big and not too small. We wont get off in Nassau but are going to try the adult beach at Perfect Day.

Thanks Matt, Im sending this article to everyone, it really lays out the choices we have to make.

A group of my friends? want to go on an Alaska cruise next year. I have been tasked with planning the trip. What do you think is the best itinerary? North bound, southbound? Any help would be greastly appreciated. We are looking at a 7 day

We tip our stateroom attendant $20 per day and usually give $50 dollars for a three or four day and $100 dollars for a seven day to our MDR head waiter. We carry another $100 in small bills to take care of any other crew that provides excellent service.

Can't wait to sail on this new ship! Who will join us?

Just got off the plane in Barcelona, they didn’t even check our vax cards. So easy.

The airline doesn’t know so I called the Spanish Consulate and they didn’t know. Geez

Royal caribbean just stated I need an antigen test

So I am having a little mental breakdown. I was going to fill out the SpTH form and got the following message. What do I need to get into Spain?? On the phone with Royal Caribbean and they don’t know. This just changed today and I fly out tomorrow

I keep the set sail pass in my apple wallet and I carry a Manila folder of all my documents.

Thanks for the information, the website was very helpful

We fly into Barcelona next Thursday for a cruise on Wonder leaving the following Sunday. Do we need to fill out the Spanish Travel Health form??

We use a 10-point scale where I work and are required to investigate every score below 10. The employee doesn't technically get in trouble for a low score, but if they fail to follow procedure they are disciplined. Of course, they wouldn't be investigated if they scored a 10....

I use the digital copy on my phone, but I always have my cruise folder full of printed out documents just in case.

I have absolutely no problem with gratuities going up. This would amount to around $11 extra for my cruise. These stewards, bartenders, waitstaff, laundry workers, plumbers, electricians, cooks and other staff work tirelessly 7 days a week to ensure we have a good time. They smile, bow and scrape, suffer abuse, for very small salaries most of which they send home to their families. My cabin steward on my last cruise had 3 children at home that he got to see every 4 or 5 months. I don't begrudge them an extra $11, and I will supplement their salaries with extra tips. I feel it is the least I can do for all they do for me.
