smokeybandit Posted August 16, 2025 Author Report Posted August 16, 2025 Hotel prices in Port Canaveral are insane. I'm glad I snagged an MCO airport hotel as soon as booking windows opened. Quote

GatorCruiser Posted January 15 Report Posted January 15 We did a suite on icon as well. Loved the grove. Spent more time there than the main pool decks. Youl love it. Pretty good grub up there during the day. Quote

smokeybandit Posted January 28 Author Report Posted January 28 Ah yes, the ritual that many of us still do at midnight (or, 10pm if you're me) even though it really doesn't mean anything 45 days later. InmyElement and OCSC Mike 1 1 Quote
dustfsu Posted January 29 Report Posted January 29 Woke up at 1am and checked in. I was curious what time I would get is the only reason I did it. Got 1130 Quote
smokeybandit Posted January 29 Author Report Posted January 29 I got 12pm just now. Some on the facebook group claimed that got 10:30 or 11. That said I fully expect to be on board with the earliest group. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote

Can’t wait , stoked as hell for Star and our group pics !!! Is the Grove like a typical suite lounge in regards to not being able to get in before having your key card, short of some generous B2B letting you in? Quote

Hmm, I’ve only sailed an icon class once and I don’t recall if we tried to go to the grove (which is the suite sundeck equivalent) before the rooms opened. Seems logical that it wouldn’t have access if the rooms aren’t open as it does require key access. We’ll find out soon I suppose. Quote
