    We're leaving tomorrow. Our daughter and her husband were on their honeymoon on the Jewel in 2013. Excited! 🙂

    Wow. Thank you so much for posting. I think right now it looks like HAL or Oceania for us. Waiting for HAL to post their -25 itinerary. 🙂

    Which is why I decided to come here and ask you folks. Thank you all for your replies. We are looking forward to our cruise and some warmer weather. 🙂

    That is more in line with what I read as well. The food I don't worry so much about since we're still experiencing issues after the pandemic even here at home, so I give them a break on that. I just didn't want a ghost ship feel over the holidays, but it seems that is not going to be the case.

    This would've been a better answer in the first place... Peace.
  6. Guinness1000
    Yes. Any reason I should ignore? He said he was on the ship two weeks ago. Should I call him out?
  7. Guinness1000
    Didn't know we were allowed to post links. Whatever...
  8. Guinness1000
    Are you saying I made it up?
  9. Guinness1000
    Pretty sure, because the video was a walk through of the ship. 🙂
  10. Guinness1000
    I hope you're right. I'm okay with lighter than full capacity, but less than 1/3 seemed kind of dull. 🙂

    I came across a post on YT where someone who sailed two weeks ago said there were only 800 pax on the ship. I think it has a 2700 capacity. Can this be true? We're leaving next Thursday.

    I sent you an email. 🙂

    We're leaving on the Jewel in 12 days! 🙂

    Allure in May from Galveston. First time for me at that port. 🙂

    What is a suitable wage? A US annual wage of $60k? Indian average of less than $3k? I don't think they will ever pay some of these workers similar wages across the board. It would be interesting to know though how much they pay a crew member from India vs any European country for a similar position.

    I don't think we're allowed to post links to websites, but I read them on a site that rhymes with bruises... It was for Azamara Onward. It also says New Ship, but I think that one is an old Princess ship, so I'm a little confused. Loved the itinerary though.
  17. Guinness1000
    I just looked at Azamara's 2025 world cruise and they have a really great port to sea day ratio. Like 108 days or so in port for a 155 day cruise. Anyone here familiar with Azamara? I read some pretty bad reviews, sadly.

    I was asking my three kids, all in their mid 30s, if anyone had bought a Powerball ticket. Our daughter answered, don't need to, I've already won the lottery. 🙂

    My husband is retiring in two years. I think one thing that helps as we get older is that our house is paid for, cars are paid for, we owe nothing and just being the two of us makes our expenses pretty low. Also, all the kids are doing really well, we do not plan on leaving anything behind. Everyone's situation is different. 🙂
  20. Guinness1000
    Thanks for the update! The room we selected were not one of those, but thank you for telling me. 😊
  21. Guinness1000
    Thank you both! That was my thinking as well, but wanted to doublecheck before hitting that book now button. 👌😊
  22. Guinness1000
    I've been on hold forever and the chat thing doesn't seem to work. Does anyone here know if there are any obstructed view Signature Suites on New Amsterdam? This would be deck 6 midship. Thank you! 🙂

    How was Crystal? We had planned on their website to do their F1 in Monaco in 2023. Were going to put down a deposit this past spring... Yes, it doesn't necessarily have to be starting and ending in the same port, but should be pretty close. In the end though, I'm always willing to go on any cruise. I'm always happy on the water. 🙂
  24. Guinness1000
    Actually, my idea of an around the world cruise is the idea of circumnavigating the globe. Starting in one port and ending in the same and crossing all time zones. After that, I'd love to go on more specialized cruises where the areas are more important. 🙂
  25. Guinness1000
    Agree. 🙂
