  1. No acrylics or dips on ships it appears. Someone posted a price list (not sure date of it); no acrylics listed.
  2. Hmmm...probably double what I pay at home. BUT if I get it at home & then need one once I board, pointless. Oh, well, we have quite a bit of OBC this time...
  3. Interesting...did you read @CanadianBurger Live TR? He did say while MDR service was slow, overall they thought food was very good. A few misses, but not surprising with a 1st sailing.
  4. Not correct. No upcharge for anything at the Eden Cafe. Breakfast menu: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/617ac6f28abd337ac8fc5f75/t/659de1c2e9067e46d7fbc0fa/1704845763887/Eden+Cafe+Breakfast+Menu+Celebrity.pdf Lunch menus: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/617ac6f28abd337ac8fc5f75/t/659de1d06ec2753f7dbcfbec/1704845778621/Eden+Cafe+Lunch+Menus+Celebrity.pdf
  5. Yeah, that's what I figured...shoot.
  6. I have had such long lasting shellac manicures on Celebrity & Carnival that I'm tempted to just wait until I board to get my nails done there. (seriously...I had my nails done Feb 14 on Carnival...obviously have grown out, but still in fantastic shape!) My gal isn't working before we go, so I'd rather not have a crummy job here just to have it redone on the ship. Does anyone know the prices? Thx
  7. OK...I have a $750 coupon. I understand that I can only apply it to my fare--can I use it to cover my taxes & fees as well, or ONLY the cruise fare?Thx
  8. On the Splendor last month the table was full later most evenings. I had 2 runner runner suck outs--on consecutive nights; decided I was done. Did well at the TX Hold Em Ultimate table game. Hard to get on early in the cruise, even with 2 tables. But the last 3 nights I played about 10 hours total & broke even. Racked up some nice points.
  9. I don't see it anywhere on my account...is it necessary to call to use it? Thx
  10. This isn't right--have been booking the Plus package since 2021...never have had to pay for our Medallions to be shipped.🤷‍♀️
  11. Yes, 15 alcoholic drinks per person. If you go over, you then pay for them. One tip--on port days when you are less likely to get to 15, get some unopened beer/cider/seltzers to keep in your fridge to help on those long sea days--you can even order them on the app to be sent to your room. You could also bring a bottle of wine aboard each to help stretch. But I'll be honest--DH starts his day early. Only ONCE did we both go over 15 drinks...luckily our friends hadn't so ordered one for us...server knew us well (and we tip a dollar or 2 each order along the way), so was fine with that.
  12. Glad to hear you are going to give Princess a try again! Your experience on the Emerald had me drop our Emerald reservation last year--ended up snagging a great deal in Retreat on the Beyond, so it was a win-win! I do think that experience on the Emerald was a one-off for Princess--hopefully this one will be more up to their standards!
  13. Most ships do not have public trash cans except in restrooms & cabins...I find it an oddity but I suppose it forces them to clean things up that are left. I suspect an illusionist is not a regular crew member; often then come in for one show (or 2 in a night), get off at the next port & head to another ship. I suspect the enrichment speaker got ill. Did you go to Sabatinis? I often find they have openings if we ask personally. Paper napkins are FAR more wasteful than cloth--they add to the landfill! Saves them a lot of money as well. You aren't really "wasting" a cutlery set--it simply needs to be washed again. I have never seen a start time on when people should put their luggage out...I have often done it before dinner the last day as I know we won't be back in the room before it has to be out, which might seem early to some.
  14. GREAT price...If we weren't on the Regal this month I would jump! Even airfare this close out is reasonable. Have fun ya'll!
  15. LAX to SYD was only 15 hours. One tip--book Hawaiian Air. You have a layover in HNL (or you could stop for a few days...) Only 5 hours to HNL, then 10 to SYD...helps a bit.
