I do appreciate the suggestions, but this was more of an FYI. The advice about tipping in front of the pit boss and making sure they are tracking are both good. This was a compted trip from last years play. I will probably be on 2 more before March 31 when this years evaluation ends, so I don’t need 2500 points all on one cruise to hit prime again for next year. The more $’s gambled the more points. I played next to at least 2 individuals who dropped $6000 plus at the blackjack table. I’m positive they already received status for next year. On the other hand, I played all week, probably close to 35 hours on a free trip, and ended up $50 on the positive side in the casino for a weeks worth of entertainment. Eric

Sitting with my butt planted, with occasional bathroom pit stop from at least 8pm - 1am every night. One til 3am a couple of others til 2:30am. So straight playing. Was there a mistake in the points total? Who knows, possibly I earned prime status with 2 cruises last year. Eric

I can only tell u that is what the casino host told me on the sixth day

Just returned last Sunday from a 7 night on Liberty. I played blackjack only the first 5 nights, at least 5 hours every night,, usually the $15 dollar table, but occasionally the 10. Playing mostly the minimum, with a sporadic 20, 30:, and even a couple of $50 bets mixed in. Before gambling on the six day, I visited the casino host, to see what sort of points that amounted to: 540. I hope this is helpful to the curious out there. Eric

Thanks for the ideas. Doing the catamaran / train in St Kitts and the galleon in St Lucia. Hoping for something different. Eric Reeves

Looking for ideas on the best things to do in Barbados from those of you that have been there before. I'm on adventure this Saturday with the last stop being Bridgetown. I've heard of the turtles and I'm sure the beaches are great as well. Suggestions anybody? Eric Reeves

Flying in there next Friday, hope there won't be problems with the airport or cruise terminal. The people of Puerto Rico have sure been through quite a bit these past 5 months. Eric Reeves -

9 Nt Southern Caribbean on Navigator OTS
ericreev replied to Rose City Cruiser's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I found those deals on the suites and posted them. I booked one as well, but ran into the same situation as you. The flights from both Austin and Dfw to Sju where in the $700 and up range. What I ended up doing was rebooking in December, but only when I could immediately book a decent priced flight. Eric Reeves -
Several bars on the boardwalk. I didn't go in any of those, so I can't vouch for the food and drinks there. One that stands out in my memory, only for the name, was the "Blue Bitch Bar." Eric Reeves

It's a frozen pizza. I've found that there a times when coming back from a long day ashore, it's good to grab when you're tired and just want to nap. eric reeves

Liberty of the Seas, a review of my first time ever on Freedom Class
ericreev replied to BugsyCruiser's topic in Live Blogs
The slides were great and your right the green one was faster. I did the tidal wave once and came fairly close to the padded barrier at the top which made me a little nervous. It was still fun. Eric Reeves -
Hot tub on Royal suite balcony of vision class?
ericreev replied to ericreev's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
That's what I've come across as well. About six months ago, I swear I saw a photo or deck plan with a hot tub for the royal suite on vision at least, but can no longer find it. I do appreciate the info. Eric Reeves -
Hot tub on Royal suite balcony of vision class?

I've seen several of these in the last few weeks. These were prices listed for single occupancy after selecting the number of travelers And room type. Some were inside cabins for 7 nights at $295 before taxes. Others were balcony or junior suites for $195. In all cases the price jumped dramatically after selecting the specific room number and attempting to complete the booking. So it's not just you. I've seen some of these. It has to be a glitch of some sort. Eric reeves

This is quite some distance LA to Galveston ( 1600 miles), but interstate highway 10 goes all the way from LA to Houston. Eric

The following week is the same price with taxes a little higher. Eric

I was just on Liberty from Sept 11 - 18th and saw one offered on day 5. It was around $85 for a 10 drink card. I don't remember if it included tips or not. Eric

Crown and Anchor Discounts Question
ericreev replied to Buzzard05's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Navigator is one of my favorite ships as well. Sailed her twice when she was in Galveston. I like all the voyager class ships. Just love the layout. Eric -
I'm considering it. It's a good offer, but there's flight, baggage, and parking costs since I'm in the Austin area. Eric
