Given the quality of what they have been serving lately in the Suite lounge, even horses ovaries would be a step up from their "hors d'oeuveres" 🐴😱

Pure myth - it is gluten that your body doesn't need, can't process, and can't eliminate. I eat twice what I used to eat before I switched, and still walk the same 2-3 miles a day and swim the same half mile a day as I did before I switched, so the only variable that the weight loss can be attributed to is removal of gluten, which the body stores as useless fat.

Are these locations consistent on all edge class ships?

GF - Gluten free. She takes meds that gluten interferes with, so she started avoiding it as much as possible. Once we started converting our favorite recipes to GF, I really got into playing with ingredients and found that we could make almost anything GF with a little bit of tweaking. Pounds melted off of me, and once the meds worked as they should, she actually gained back the 10 that she lost before they got her meds correct. Love the Indian food on RCL, and they now even have GF focaccia in promenade cafe - almost as good as hers.😇

DW hooked me on a GF diet, and I shed 35 pounds. Scale helps me make sure it stays off.😇

Absolutely! However, I would need to adjust the order a bit. We just got off of our fourth cruise on Adventure since February, and other than Izumi, the biggest gap is between the WJ (best by a mile), Specialty dining (more like fast casual land based restaurants than "upscale dining) in a distant second place, and WAAAAAAAY behind that, the "rubber chicken circuit" MDR offerings. YMMV

DW and I just got off of a 2 week B2B on Adventure, and only gained about two pounds each. We just can't seem to gain weight on cruises any more. AA on the other hand....😉

Serenade would have to convert the entire ship to hold the meeting😱😇

Thanks for taking us along on your journey. Safe travels home and wishing you all the best.

Thanks for the pix and the description. Showed them to DW and she told me to book a midship balcony on deck 11. At 5ft she didn’t think she would be able to enjoy the view in a sheltered balcony.

This is our first time on Cunard, and I can’t make heads or tails out of their booking engine. Lots of questions, but no answers anywhere: What is a “sheltered” balcony? What is it sheltered from? Does Cunard offer travel insurance or do I have to purchase it separately? Is final payment really due a week after the deposit? Can I book my flights and pre cruise hotel through Cunard (won’t fly in day of for any cruise, especially one out of NYC)? where do I find drink and internet packages/rates? I probably have more questions, but now I have a headache just getting this far.😇

We always sail in GS, and DW has a gluten intolerance. MDR room service has yet to get her orders correct, spanning several cruises. We only risk the MDR room service perk when we know what she orders is always gluten free (Indian).

Not sure this will help since the OP is currently on board, but we bought an inexpensive GE universal remote from Amazon that works with the on board tvs. Have used it on dozens of cruises with no hiccups to override the tvs default settings and access the hdmi ports.

I have Equinox booked for next January to celebrate our 30th anniversary, and have not sailed on X in ages. DW wants to know how fancy she should pack. I’m easy, have tux will travel, but she wants to really splash it up. Any suggestions?

Happy that you found it worth $20. What ships were in port? Agree that the food choices were seriously lacking for a paid venue. Had we been able to find seating by the pool we might have stayed, but the chair hogs beat us to them all. If they took out half of the beach chairs and umbrellas so you could actually enjoy a view, we might have stayed. Unfortunately they don’t seem to think that way. For them it’s all about the Benjamin’s $$, not about their paying guests.
