    Courts were moved to avoid the constant noise near homes! 

    When I first heard of pickleball on board a ship, the first thing that came to mind was the report I saw on tv about the constant noise encroaching on nearby homes making their own homes nearly unlivable.

    So where else are you going to find a listing of the most highly discounted cruises on a web page?  You can book these cruises anywhere,  but you have to find them first.

    I could not agree more.  That is the easiest, least cantankerous site I have found to start the first phase of my deal searches.  Scroll, save, print if I choose to, compare itineraries, compare ships, etc.  Easy peasy.  Although I will say I have not booked with them since 2017.  Second phase sometimes involves finding the best deal by letting the TAs “compete” for my cruise dollar.

    So when do we expect an email saying we are so sorry there was an error in our online cruise planner application.  Your classic to premium upgrade that you purchased at $6.99 pp pr plus grats was cxled.  We are offering 18.99 plus grats special for you if you would like to purchase the upgrade for your cruise.  Thank you for your understanding   Hoping not but celebrity track record is not great on things like this.  

    I can’t even imagine the uproar and backlash this would cause.

    soup tasted to me exactly like Spaghetti-Os without the Os

    You have definitely unsold me on the fire roasted tomato cream soup.  Please let us know about any further dining choices not worthy of the stomach space as Kathy puts it.  I must note how nicely arranged the three carrots and three potatoes were fanned out on the dinner plate.  Excited to read more updates from you and the hubs.

    Yup!  Two per person are included with the basic, and then it’s $35/device/week to upgrade to the streaming package

    Sorry, but I have another question or two.  I just want to make sure I have this straight.  Is it pretty easy to switch between devices?  When I charge my phone, I will want to switch over to my iPad.  I am used to this process on Celebrity.  Same hold true for the other person in my suite?  So, basic is included for two devices per person.  If one of us has a third device which we want to connect to the basic, what charge are we facing for that third device?

     We are booked in YC on MSC Davina in February and the gratuities are separate.  I had our TA pre-pay ours so I would not have to keep track of them onboard.

     

    We did not do this.  So, now I presume our OBC can go toward the grats.

    Following! Sailing one week from today - long time Celebrity loyalists trying YC for the first time. 

    We are right there with you, although not until December.  It looks like these two will be painting a beautiful portrait of what we have to look forward to in YC.  Our week in YC will be immediately followed by 5 nights in The Retreat (just for comparison's sake.)😉
