Thank you! Will still be following up on it daily. I just hope it is not going to be like the old days of having to run to guest services to get the Vibe passes!

Thanks again for the heads up and I am happy that you were able to reserve the cabana for your cruise. As mentioned right above, they did not release any for my June 2024 cruise or any other June cruise. Hopefully, my PCC will come up with a solution or advise me what to do upon boarding.

No dice for me yet. My PCC told me that they opened up the Vibe cabanas for dates in the future, but not for the ones in the coming weeks and we are on the June 2nd sailing. He reassured me, once again, that he does check daily. He is going to speak with his Supervisor for advice. And yes, this trip we are traveling with our young adult children, their significant others and extended family. We all have had our Vibe passes since July 2022! Thank you for touching base with me the information you were able to obtain and yes, we will not cruise on a larger ship without the Vibe passes!

I have been calling continuously and emailing my PCC. Do you actually think going to CC would be my first line of trying to find out. But thanks anyway for your snarky comment.

Thank you! I will follow up now also.

Thank you for understanding and I agree 100%. As I mentioned earlier, this past February we had one and it was the first time we reserved one instead of the regular Vibe passes. We enjoyed it and used it more than we thought we would.

The Vibe Cabanas are now reserved beforehand like the Vibe passes. We had one this past February on the Encore which we reserved when they started preselling the Vibe passes in July 2022. We also have one reserved for our February 2025 cruise on the Viva. Before the presell days, you also raced on board to reserve one for the duration of your cruise The Joy procedure is different right now because they are new to the Joy Vibe. And I did not say I was going to CHOG them, I said I wanted to reserve them as the procedure on all of the other ships.

Yes, the ones in the Haven are first come, first serve, but it would surprise me that they would not want to be charging the additional amount for the cabanas as they do on the other ships. Seems like a lost opportunity for more revenue and we all know how they are looking for ways to get that extra money!

Does anyone have any update on the vibe cabanas on the Joy? I still cannot find a solid answer on the procedure of securing them and they still cannot be reserved beforehand as on the other ships.

@Radio Thank you, again, for posting the dailies. I noticed that the shows Elements and the Aerialists (Mr. and Mrs. Fefelov) have not shown up in the dailies yet. Do you know if Elements is still happening this week?

I had the dessert wrong with my guess.

Agree with @PATRLR, for us, it was worth it. When I first booked this excursion, I did not tell my husband as I knew he would say that I was crazy. I finally told him the day before when he was in vacation mode. He agreed, it was worth it. The day we went, it was too icy (or foggy, I do not remember) for the Jewel to get anywhere near the glacier and we were able to get up close. Those behind on the Jewel did not get to see it.

We were in 16023 last year and had no noise issues. The location was perfect for us.

We (extended family) are very excited as this trip has been booked since February 2022 when my husband and I were on the Joy the first time. However, it will be a tad more crowded this time around!

Am I correct that they still are not taking reservations for the comedy shows?
