Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. If you booked with Southwest, you can cancel it anytime and get credits back on your account that never have an expiration date. I've done that many times and have credits from a couple of years ago that I'm still waiting to use. You cannot get actual cash back but you can get credits back for future flights.
  2. We had an issue with Viator on the first cruise from the Bahamas after the shutdown. The person was over an hour late to pick us up, we were a little worried we weren't going to get back to the ship on time. Plus they took us to a different beach than what we had booked. We pretty much lost our faith in ever trying them again, I know people give them great reviews but one and done for us.
  3. I had the same experience. I fell and twisted my foot and ankle on the ship (Freedom) and had xrays in Medical and was not charged a penny. We also had travel insurance.
  4. I live in Wisconsin and I do the same thing! As soon as the snow melts I start wearing my flip flops as well. We just got done with a week of brutally cold weather so I would be thrilled if it was 60.
  5. I am a definite overpacker. Usually take a couple extra of things, even swimsuits and dinner clothes. I like choices. And I pack for my husband as he probably would forget half of what he should bring. I am very anal when it comes to packing, and have a spreadsheet that I just change for each cruise as needed and check things off as they are getting put into the suitcase.
  6. We go to Paradise every time we are in Cozumel. I just go to their website and book the all-inclusive straight from there, and then just catch a cab at the port to go over there. Very short cab ride. Definitely our go-to while in Cozumel.
  7. We are guessing it is 65. I am 62 and my husband is 65 and it shows the 35% off for him but not for me. Same with any of the rest of our party that is over 65 versus under 65. That said, when we book a cruise if there is a senior rate then I qualify even if he is not there because that starts at 55. So for whatever reason the senior rate on the DBP is 65.
  8. We saw 35% off for anybody that was over the age of 65 on our upcoming cruises. For those of us that are under 65 it was whatever the sale price was for this current sale. So we actually had two separate prices for the two people in the cabin, one was 35% off and one was 25% off.
  9. I just redid an excursion in Roatan for $20 pp less than what I originally paid. Also some other excursions I was watching are cheaper as well. Unfortunately, the bev package is still the same b0go 50% off. I am still hoping they go down more but we'll see.
  10. Before covid it was so much better, they had one floor of the dining room strictly for MTD so you never had to go through everything you have to now. I still prefer my time but I really wish they would go back to the old way of doing it to alleviate all the lines.
  11. Condolences on your loss. Royal did the same thing for my daughter after her husband passed away. She was able to use his existing FCC on her next cruise.
  12. Exactly. Today it would not have mattered what time a flight was unless it is very late this evening. So to say never book till at least noon (or 1 or 2) or after, it would not matter in some situations, like today. The airport will be a nightmare tonight once the ships finish docking and allow passengers to get off.
  13. I was injured on Freedom about a year ago and broke my foot (my fault, turned wrong and my foot went sideways) and went to medical. There was no charge because I got hurt on the ship. I fully expected to pay and also had trip insurance, but we asked and they said it would not cost anything. So guessing you will not be charged for an accident on the ship.
  14. Making sure to keep her phone in airplane mode. As Biker said, use wifi calling mode with phone in airplane mode and she can text or call via the wifi. I do this all the time when I am on a cruise without my husband.
  15. Yes as long as the dates of the cruise are within the policy dates and no pre existing
