  1. Thanks. Enjoy your cruise. I've brought wine on board before but this is my first time on a B2B. Wasn't sure how it works on the 2nd leg. Thanks once again.
  2. On a B2B, can you get wine from a port in the first cruise and then they give it to you the night before which you can then bring on board for the 2nd leg?
  3. We are using the MyVegas complementary cruise for a B2B on Navigator Jan 17th and then the 24th. One of the cruises I already upgraded to a Balcony. The other I'm still in an inside cabin. My question is, how can I calculate what I'm offered originally and for me to try and get an upgrade and what the price should be. On my last cruise on Adventure, I was able to upgrade a few times and depending who I got, I received difference responses. I know that is common, if you don't get what you want call again. My example for my 7 day cruise is the cruise fare is 965. Right now it's at around 550. Let's say Ocean view is 1100. Do I go off of (or tell them) 1100-965 or is it 1100-550?? I only got off of Adventure 2 months ago and I don't quite remember how I was able to eventually upgrade to a jr suite. I'd like to do the math on my end before I get on the phone with them. Thanks in advance for any guidance.
  4. I went December 1st sailing from Galveston. It was the easiest time we have ever had getting on and off. We parked close to the ship and was on the road in about 20 minutes or so. This was pre-omicron so we had no problem with any activity and no issues with dining. We did the MyTime dining. Hopefully someone gives you a more updated cruise experience.
  5. We did the Mayan Ruins part and we loved it. Unfortunately our sail time leaving Galveston was changed to a later time and they had to cancel this excursion so we just did the Mayan ruins part. Highly recommend it.
  6. My wife and I like to golf, so I'm contacting the courses and we might just do things on our own as well. Enjoy your trip. If you don't mind replying back to let me know how it went. We are looking to see how easy it is to get off the ship and thru customs. On adventure a couple of weeks ago, it took maybe 10 minutes to get off the ship and thru customs to my car which was only feet away. For this LA trip, we have a noon flight from Long Beach which I know i'm cutting it close. thanks, Bob
  7. Thank you very much for the recap. It's appreciated. We sometimes do the RCL excursions and sometimes we go on our own.
  8. Thanks for the response and I'll watch out for Matt's trip. I'm coming from NJ so I'm not familiar with that part of Mexico. But I could not resist the Free MyVegas cruise. But in reality, not free after a visit to the casino!! Just became Diamond so I'm looking forward to it.
  9. We are going on this on the Jan 17th cruise. There doesn't seem to be many excursions. Can anyone help in suggestions for these 3 ports whether thru RCL or on your own? I looked at a past cruise compass and Mazatlan golf was recommended in the daily compass. Has anyone done that?
  10. There are a lot of MyVegas RCL cruises available. Leaving from LA, Barbados, Galveston. I just booked a 7day from LA. I just got back from a MyVegas one from Galveston.
  11. Was on Adventure on the Dec 1st sailing. Customer service told me there was 1700 on it. There were really no lines for anything and you could get lounge chairs at the pool at any time.
  12. We just did the Dec 1st on Adventure and parked in the Express lot port of Galveston. It's probably less than a 100 yards and we just carried on our one big piece of luggage with a couple of carry on. It just took a couple of minutes top. We were on the ship in probably 20 minutes, if not less. Just have your paperwork ready.
  13. We are going out on December 1st from Galveston port. I've gone to the CVS site and it seems the 3 CVS in Galveston don't do the antigen test and I have to go about 45 minutes away to get the test. I'm staying a week before my trip at a timeshare. Where have other people gone when they have left from the Galveston port? I know I can get a rapid test kit, but I'd rather not go that way. Thanks for any help.
  14. I'm in NJ with a cruise leaving from Galveston. We are probably driving even though it's a 2 days trip. The airlines lately have been having issues and I just don't want to take a chance that flights are down for a canceled of days like some of the airlines have had happened. I'm still on the fence though.
  15. What Ashley said is what I did for my upcoming cruise. Just takes a phone call.
  16. There is one cruise out there for 11/15 for 5 nights. Odyssey of the seas leaving from Ft Lauderdale. It won't be there long I bet.
  17. Looks like they are gone at the moment. But if you missed it and want one. I would check almost hourly as a lot of time they open up again once they initially put it out there. I snagged one the last time months ago and my cruise is Dec 1st on Adventure.
  18. We booked a cruise using MyVegas and it's a comped cruise using my reward. That was really easy to do by the way. We just tried redeeming a 100 OBC from my wife's account and it was denied. When I called they stated that you can only use one reward per booking. I think they changed their verbiage as it says "One reward redemption per booking(stateroom). Since we were turned down, I just tried to do the other way you can redeem to see if that will work by sending them an email with our information. Has anyone had any luck with the most recent RCL MyVegas reward with a comp and a OBC? I don't have a travel agent yet as I just recently booked this last week. Would a TA be able to help more than me calling? Thanks in advance if anyone can help.
  19. Majesty didn't have the electronic and if you brought your own dauber, then it was less to get the cards.
  20. I was on Majesty recently. There still was an area in the Viking lounge for us non-diamond guests to sit down and have a drink during the diamond time. I think I might have been the only person in that area, but there was an area. I had good service no less.
  21. We were on Majesty in December and they did charge us the corkage fee. I believe it was 15 dollars.
  22. We sailed on Explorer and Anthem during winter here in NJ and we really like the Anthem. I hope you do too. Solarium pool is pretty nice and great for poor weather.
  23. I know the diamond club met in the Viking Lounge. There was an area for us non-diamond up there too.
