I used this one last month with no issues. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FJWLLDB?ref=ppx_pop_dt_b_product_details&th=1

We saw brown bears in Icy Straight eating fish in a small cove near the port. Also saw plenty of eagles there last year. Just luck but cool to see.

Good to know, thanks.

It was busy on our cruise last month as well. We were always able to grab a table though. Couldn't believe the amount of young children in there. The age rule apparently doesn't apply to the bistro.

Used to live on the St Lawrence river in New York. Canada started enforcing a rule about fishing in their waters accompanied by large fines. I thought a war was going to break out over it with all the uproar. Also Canadians had issues with clearing immigration when traveling on boats "because I've been going back and forth all my life". The fishing thing may have been a response to this.

Sailed on Oasis last month and wondered why they didn't have a system like this. We really like that on Princess and my wife missed being able to order a cup of tea and some food from wherever we were sitting on the ship.

We had a port side balcony on deck ten of Oasis a couple of weeks ago. No smoke smell at all. I wouldn't worry.

Just booked a TA on Explorer for 4/23. GTY balcony for 1099. Next day it was at 1250. Pick your own cabin was 1400 more. Timing matters

We are on this cruise as well. What kind of tips are you looking for? Haven't sailed on Explorer before but have cruised this year.

If you are flying in/out of Seattle be sure to take advantage of the port valet service. Your bags are taken straight to the airport from the ship and on to the final destination. Overweight bag fees do not apply. It is a free service from the Port of Seattle.

This is a fairly large laminated world map. I've been tempted to purchase it to mark off destinations we've visited. Might be something to consider. https://www.amazon.com/Maps-International-Giant-Mega-Map-Lamination/dp/B00JR92Y8Q/ref=sxin_17?asc_contentid=amzn1.osa.afb360e5-0067-4b1c-acaa-96a853a0d15a.ATVPDKIKX0DER.en_US&asc_contenttype=article&ascsubtag=amzn1.osa.afb360e5-0067-4b1c-acaa-96a853a0d15a.ATVPDKIKX0DER.en_US&content-id=amzn1.sym.2501e731-e00e-46aa-97f8-28a8de3ef511%3Aamzn1.sym.2501e731-e00e-46aa-97f8-28a8de3ef511&creativeASIN=B00JR92Y8Q&crid=1U1Z6DDZTWO1N&cv_ct_cx=world%2Bmap&cv_ct_id=amzn1.osa.afb360e5-0067-4b1c-acaa-96a853a0d15a.ATVPDKIKX0DER.en_US&cv_ct_pg=search&cv_ct_we=asin&cv_ct_wn=osp-single-source-pecos-desktop&keywords=world%2Bmap&linkCode=oas&pd_rd_i=B00JR92Y8Q&pd_rd_r=c8b0f969-e60f-4036-8d98-c10a990ecfa0&pd_rd_w=5JVV9&pd_rd_wg=49t4a&pf_rd_p=2501e731-e00e-46aa-97f8-28a8de3ef511&pf_rd_r=YCT92STX9TX232VXGMQ9&qid=1675362254&sprefix=world%2Bmap%2Caps%2C133&sr=1-3-c26ac7f6-b43f-4741-a772-17cad7536576&tag=scrippsonsite-20&th=1

Looks like they moved things around to show it in the Aqua theater.

I'm new so I doin't know when it changed. I booked my first RCCL last year cruise leaving next month. I was surprised that when I asked the agent for his direct line he said they didn't do that. I always deal with the same person on a different cruise line and get great service from him. Giving MEI a try on a cruise booked for Australia later this year.

Out of Dr Pepper ? Cue the Geico gecko doing the dramtic "I have a flat tire". That's my favorite drink.

Just joined as well. Didn't think to look for a facebook group.

Just booked it for February 12 cruise on Oasis. Hope we have a good group for the challenge. Thanks to everyone who posted on here, It really helped me decide to do this.

As everyone has stated it's a great service. I booked it on board back in September.

https://www.cruisedeckplans.com/DP/deckplans/stateroom-details.php?ship=Freedom-of-the-Seas&cabin=1868 This is the same cabin on Freedom of the seas. Nice video showing the size. From the deck plan appears identical to the Independence. YMMV

Just viewed the Facebook page for LFK. Seems a sad situation for the animals there.

We booked the ruins for Costa Maya and Cozumel. We picked the zip line and Gumbalimba Park. If you see this show reservations just opened in the cruise planner. Both of my friends are from Nyack or just outside of it. We lived in Northern New York for 13 years but never made it to that part of the state.

We are on that cruise. Really looking forward to the Mayan ruins. I visited Chichen Itza in the 90's but my wife has never been there. I have friends from Orange County New York.

Had this problem today also. App eventually cleared around noon cst and I was able to grab 1100 - 1130 check in time. Website never did clear up.

I've done two cruises out of Seattle and I wouldn't book before 11:30 to be safe. It takes about 20 - 30 minutes to drive back to the airport. Last trip we were held up at a draw bridge for close to 20 minutes. Several people were sweating making their flights. I don't need that stress. Take advantage of the Port Valet service offered by the Port of Seattle. You check your bags through to your final destination straight from the ship. Biggest advantage is no over weight bag fees.

Glad you found a solution. When I traveled a lot for work I carried a small travel router that allowed me to overcome this issue. The router connected to the hotel and then the Firestick was easy to connect to my router. You can also use a laptop with HMDI out and plug that into the TV.

I was able to rebook all my excursions through the app. Saved me over $150 on our February Oasis OTS cruise. Wish I could get into the cruise planner to check the price of other items.
