Is this the rock cruise? My friend is working with the bands on this and keeps posting pics from it, but the pics he posted today were in Labadee.

Yes... I was so excited to see those giant glass bottles of water, they lasted us all trip and stayed cold in the fridge cooler thing

It does suck, but you do have other options for food... windjammer, Pizza, room service, not sure of the ship but if there is a playmakers or johnny rockets.... I wouldn't miss out on doing stuff in Alaska just to get back in time for MDR dinner.

Right!? Not what I was expecting, but glad it was a great trip!

YES! I hope they do something soon, can't even watch them these days.

Honestly, it doesn't matter either way... we are fine getting off in the morning, gives us more time to get to the airport or in the case of our last cruise, more time to hang out and explore a little. And we don't rush to get on... around noon-1pm is fine with us so we can grab a snack, a drink then basically head to unpack.

I LOVE this... my issue with large vacations or going with other family members is exactly this... one part of the family wants to do this, another wants to do this and by the end of the day you're all sick of each other, and haven't done half of what you actually wanted to! I'm definitely adopting this plan next time the sister in law and her kids wanna tag along!

New update this morning on the app...show the chat bubble again (as well as some other slight changes and button additions that I see)

Got another update today..chat option is back, daily planner is broken into categories and now I see a drink AND internet package button on the bottom of the one page

Yep! I stock up on red bulls and cans of soda!

So it has the handicap symbol on the deck map and the room appears bigger, correct? Because for some reason my room is colored like an accessible room in the key, but it's not actually accessible, they just happen to use the same color for this specific type of room. BUT if yours is, I think you'll be fine... you just have a slightly bigger room, I think there is a chair instead of a couch and the shower is bigger. But if thats the room you have, then at this point changing it probably isn't much of an option.

Yeah it changed over on my app when I updated, also!

Yeah I'm also android... the only trick I have, which you may have tried, is to click on Main dining room 5 on the app... that one always shows the full menu for me if its available.

I had luck emailing [email protected] about 90 days prior to my sailing and requested my table size. They emailed me a few days later with a picture of my table number, dining room number and table size.

There are no menus or MDR is missing all together? I've noticed on the app that MDR doesn't even appear on some cruises coming up, but shows for mine, with menus for my October cruise.

We had a white board on our door, supporting our favorite football team who was playing in a big playoff game that day. We had a blast every time we came back to the room and saw different notes added to the board, sometimes in support and sometimes against our team. We loved it.

The games in playmakers (the old school video games) are free. There may be a few right outside like basketball and foosball and I think the credits work there. Just remember the credits are just that..a credit to the seapass card,once they use the arcade credits,they can continue to swipe and it will keep adding to your bill at the end of the trip.

Yeah, I don't know if it was an actual "Hack" or just some one who figured out a way to send a message to lots of people at once, but it was some vulgar language for sure

It was taken down due to a hack on Oasis last week from what I heard, I saw some screen shots of the messages sent to everyone ship wide, and I guess it was enough for them to take it down while they try to "secure" it better

I think something is addition to that can be nice... money for sure. But I'm sure something they need is also nice so they don't need to spend the money on it... I hear little things like toiletries or even small snacks you know they like. I heard some of them really enjoy silly stuff like a sheet of googly eyes to use for the towel animals...which will help get them more tips!

I keep hearing how great these room service wings are... I WILL be trying them in October!

And I think that's a luck of the draw thing... it was empty most of the day we were there, only one other ship in the port and I guess most of them didn't come to Sanchos!

We were at the airport after our cruise in February and the Chris Jericho cruise must have ended the same day, because our flight was FULL of wrestling fans and they were all talking about how great the cruise was. Seemed like they had a blast!

Mine came sometime late in the afternoon at 30 days prior...so probably later today!

I just updated mine but says that update (the one that mentions departure deal info) was from the 7th so assuming another one is upcoming.
