A little OT here but I thought I'd pass this on. Diamond members each get 24 hours of free internet. We save one of our free days until the day before the last sea day because they have a special that day at half off, so we get the last two days free.

Yes, last month they only scanned them if you took them off the ship.

I bought an S.Coifman watch on the Explorer 2 years ago. Turned out to be an excellent watch. When shopping onboard, go on wifi and check the model # out on Amazon. Even if they don't have the exact watch, look at similar to compare prices. The Coifman was in the ok range price wise. Like all (except maybe Tag) their watches, it's grey goods (not standard MFG warranty). Ask to see the warranty card and that's how you tell. Some of the warranty cards are only valid if they if they stamp their retailer authorization on it if you see a MFG warranty card. eg. Tissot

Yes, I meant CL; Yes, only DP & P in DL; Nothing is confirmed. The woman stating this is supposedly a P with "connections"? We'll see. The C did state it was coming though but wouldn't mention what or actually when it was coming. Just that they're working on it.

Rented one once and never again.

They scan the number of towels you take on your sea pass and when you return them they scan them back. It's $25 per if not returned so be sure to have them scan your sea pass.

RC isn't a Tissot authorized dealer. If you go to Tissot's website, they have an inquiry entry where you put in a retailer and they confirm or deny.

On a cruise last month, in the Diamond lounge, someone said changes were coming this April or May. She mentioned that Pinnacle will take 1,000 points to make, only pinnacle and suite guests in the Suite lounge, and only diamond plus and pinnacle in the Diamond lounge. There would be other changes to tiers and points but wasn't sure what they were. I asked the Concierge if this was true. He said that changes were coming but they are not finished working on them. Guess we have to wait till they come out to know for sure what they are.
