The pickleball court looks like it’s a full size court, although without much room on the sides and back. Ruby Pickleball

The cost listed in the financials is not the full cost of a meal, it’s just the cost of the food, itself. i.e. the ingredients. It doesn’t include labor, energy required to cook, depreciation on equipment, etc. Regardless, the opportunity cost is not what it costs them, it’s what it costs me. It costs me a pretty decent meal that I’ve already paid for.

One per person. And the one can be used on multiple devices just not at the same time.

According to Celebrity there are two purposes to the MoveUp program. One is to increase revenue, which is fairly straightforward. The other is to allow people to experience a higher level cabin than they normally book. They’ve found that after experiencing the higher level cabin 20% of the people start booking that level. Not knowing how this is factored in makes the whole process less straightforward for those of us trying to figure out how it works.

NCL has recently discontinued it, but Pride of America has been cruising the Na Pali coast every week for years. It was one of the highlights of the cruise.

Yes, you are. Which doesn’t mean you shouldn’t, either on shore or at a specialty restaurant, but it is something to take into consideration.

I could eat five meals a day, but it might interfere with making sure I get all fifteen alcoholic drinks in. You have to have priorities. 😉 Regardless, I’m just saying that you might also think about the opportunity cost of not eating in the MDR when deciding whether to pay for a meal at a specialty restaurant.

It’s more like dropping $50 to go to Outback when you’ve already paid for a meal at Applebee's.

Just for a little context on the distances. The video posted earlier from a tv station showed the ship’s track, this is from a screenshot of it. This is from the Geospace app. It shows that the outcropping at the bottom is about 550 feet wide at the widest.

We were able to get distilled water at all of the Princess Lodges we stayed at. If I remember right it came in glasses with Saran Wrap over the top.
