Just go off Navigator and visited the DL multiple times a day... mostly for the coffee machine. Always nice to chat with other members/concierge for a bit. Over the summer on Odyssey when traveling with 12+ family members, it was a nice/air conditioned/quiet place to sit and visit with each other. Rarely do I go specifically for the food, but won't pass up a coconut cookie if they are offered.

Our cruise ended in Civitavecchia. We took this shuttle into Rome. It was perfect. The cruiseline shuttle will take you to a bus station and from there you will get a shuttle to the train station or this shuttle directly into Rome. From the drop down menu choose Vaticano and it will drop you off within walking distance. No need to go to Termini if you are just doing the Vatican. Although we were staying in Rome, there were several people you were taking it for their day trip into Rome from another cruise line. https://www.sitbusshuttle.com/en/#transfer-civ

Frozen Mojito sooooo refreshing!

We actually booked a guarantee suite. I'm just assuming we will end up with a Jr Suite.

We will be on Navigator of the Seas out of Los Angeles. I don't think it has Coastal Kitchen.

Haven't even been home a week from our last cruise and booked a Jr. Suite for Spring Break in March. We are Diamond, but have never booked a suite. Super excited for double points to get us closer to D+. Any other suite tips?

HALLELUJAH! Already purchased my emed tests, but now I don't have to pack them. Guess I'll need to book another cruise to use them on

No worries! Once I read your reply I realized, I wasn't as clear as I could have been Also, I was in the same boat you were and excitedly trying to check in my family of 5 a day before and panicky that it wasn't working.

So sorry, I miss spoke early. My check in day was May 11, however, it didn't pop up for me until the afternoon of that day. That was when it turned midnight on the 12th in Rome. My check in day was correct, but the time was adjusted to be the following day in Rome.

I found that the check in date was for the Rome day/time. You should plan on May 25 at midnight Rome time. Hope that works for you

Anyone currently (or recently) on Odyssey know if the water ordered for staterooms is bottled or canned? I've already order, because I don't care, but another family member doesn't want canned. She wants to reseal it.

I also received an email for my June 26th sailing on Odyssey from Rome. I'm glad to see our testing changed to 2 days prior. That way we can test at home before flying. Still going to use our emed tests, but now I won't have to pack two tests for the five of us.

Ok...this is her first sailing and the rest of us are Diamond. Thanks....I hadn't really thought that through. It just threw me off thinking I had done something wrong on her check in.

all checked in and vaccination cards uploaded. When looking at our Set Sail passes, one of the people in our party has a white set sail pass while the other 4 are blue. Anybody know the reason why? It's my son's girlfriend, so she does have different data than the rest of us.

I was wondering if it meant midnight in Rome on the 12th making my check in in the US on May 11. It wouldn't be midnight in Rome on the 12 until later on the 11th for me. I'll check the app when it's like 3pm my time.

Great! That's what I'm hoping for! Trying to pack lighter for our 2 week trip.

I'm not seeing where we have to test to get into Italy. Can you help me find that? I'm seeing vaccine w/booster if 2nd dose is old and filling out the Locator Form. We fly out of US on a Friday night and staying at the Hilton airport in Rome before boarding on a Sunday. I'm just taking the proctored kits with us to do in the hotel.
