3 most important things to remember on Diamond

[sneekpeek]

1. Make your PC reservations the minute you get on the ship.

2. In the front pocket of your black Princess binder that you find in your cabin pull out the "Pocket Guide" to the ship as soon as you get to your cabin. You will need it the first day for sure. We saw everyone walking around with it but we didn't know where to get one. Finally we looked in the binder!

3. Remember deck 7 is the universal deck. If you can't get there from deck 7 (middle of the ship elevators) then you can't get there at all. Example: you go to deck 7 and walk back to the back elevators or stairs to get to deck 6 for the international dining room.

Thanks sneek for the suggestions. I will be going on the Sapphire in October and as that ship is a sister to the Diamond I welcome any suggestions. Again thank you

Thanks for the tips - we are going on the Diamond for our first cruise ever in August 2004. All this info will be extremely helpful!

Thanks a million. Just booked my honeymoon and first ever cruise today! Alaska here we come...

Hope I did the right thing by booking the Emerald mini suite vs the Dolphin mini suite...

Thanks sneekpeek - you have been a wealth of information about the Diamond. We're sailing on 5/15/04 to Alaska. I wonder if this menu will change when the ship moves to Alaska? Is it common for a ship's menu to change based on the itinerary?

[sneekpeek]

Yes. I saw the menu somewhere for the Alaska cruise and I can't remember exactly but I do remember it was different. Lots of fish dishes.
