That would be a great change. Muster was chaos.

Since ships are pretty much all sailing full bet on 3.

....but it really isn't complicated, people just make it that way. For decades many states gave out DL's like candy. That is what prompted the Real ID standard, the government said lets make sure people are who they say they are and required identity documentation. That is all it is. EDL's are a niche that fills the same role as a federal passport card. When entry to our neighboring countries by DL went away it created a need for those in border areas who commonly cross. The EDL/Passport card replaced it, it carries all the same citizenship and identity verification but is easily carried in a wallet.

Its not in my experience.

The sports bar is where you want to be. We have also found in the past they would have some off menu selections for the cruise that they sold until it was gone.

I have no idea. I am far from the smartest guy in the room but a simple Google search cleared it up for me years ago. At one time when I was much younger we cruised with BC's. Even I could clearly understand what I had was Real ID and that an EDL was basically a state issued passport card only issued by states on the northern border.

Even in a topic with this much information people still don't understand the difference between Real ID and an EDL. Baffling.

Booked a interior....got an interior. Booked an OV....got an OV.

Be very careful if you get a cell provider "cruise plan". They come with very limited data with astronomical overages, if you use your phone like you would on land you might be in for a big surprise.

I think that would raise the 'what do you charge' question. I don't know what I would pay for a drink package that won't start until after 6pm.

We were on the MG last month. I think many negative reviews come from people who simply aren't prepared to deal with the crowds. Our first time on her was in the reduced capacities after COVID and this was absolutely a different experience. The sheer number of people slows everything down and with the size of the ship sometimes feels like you aren't even on a cruise ship. I commented to my wife on board that you could sit at most of the popular bars and you might as well be in some random spot on land due to the lack of ocean views. The ship is beautiful and has everything you could want but that has come at a cost of losing the 'feel' of being at sea for us. It isn't bad....just different.

It is crazy....we just booked and they 'can't find' my Voyager account even though I provided the number, it is linked to my MSC account and I can enter it browsing for cruises to view the discounted fares. I logged in and realized I did not get get credit for our prior cruise even though my wife did. Right now it is in limbo, I can't access or manage our new cruise from the website and so far no response from the Voyage Club email I sent.

We did the Seaside last year and I would rate our experience around a 5. They had some things they did well but a number of things they flatly failed at compared to all their mainstream competitors. I understand it was cheap but my complaints were not over missing luxuries, it was simple things like serving hot food and not taking an hour to serve the entree in the dining room. Those things should not be price dependent. I really wanted to like it but they did not win me over as a customer, I would take a Carnival cruise over that experience any day of the week even on a Fantasy class relic. We are giving it one more chance this summer on the Seashore. If our first cruise was a bad week then we will carry on, if it is a similar experience we won't be back.

I can tell you 3 weeks ago on the Mardi Gras it was not enforced and it was already a topic of conversation on here. Walking down the hallway was like a maze.
