  1. Thanks. Do one way voyages provide more ports-of-call than roundtrip voyages and is more time given at each port visited?
  2. Now that's what I'm talking about...a whole pizza and a couple of RedBulls right before turning in for the night...I'm all in!
  3. Thanks, but you assume 1) it's a small piece and 2) it's only a piece (singular) ;0). I thought room service is no longer "complimentary" or included in the fare??
  4. On past cruises I would awaken much earlier than the lovely wife and go out to catch the sunrise. On my way back to the cabin I would stop by Cafe Promenade to pick up a hot breakfast tea for me, coffee for the wife, and some breakfast pastries for us both. Also there were many evenings that we would want to enjoy a late night snack and I would again run down to Sorrentos to pick up some pizza and grab some beverages as well. In either case, I had my hands full! The problem for me has always been trying to carry all this from the promenade deck back up to the cabin, especially when I had to take the elevators - imagine a guy with two drinks and a bunch of food in his hands trying to hit the elevator button with his elbow or big toe of one foot while balancing on the other! Anyway, it occurred to me that others have likely solved this dilemma and what better place to find possible solutions than the CC Forum?! So what tactics have you successfully employed to carry a bunch of drinks and food up to your cabins?
  5. We're considering an Alaska cruise in 2024. What are the pros and cons of Seattle and Vancouver as embarkation points? Also, the pros & cons of a round trip versus one way cruise? Thanks much.
  6. On previous cruises with the Royal Refreshment Drink Package, I was able to get Red Bulls all day long; I even had the Vitality Spa mix me a smoothie with a Red Bull in it, great start to the workout!
  7. Those who do not employ personal earbuds of some sort in public should be forced to walk the plank or be keel-hauled right along with those who smoke on their balconies.
  8. Happy Hanukkah and an early Merry Christmas to all you CC members! We're about 47 days out from our February cruise on Wonder and I'm wondering what shows are really worth taking in on her. Recommendations? Any to avoid? We don't care for anything vulgar. Thanks.
  9. Huh! I thought the poster WAS referring to the animal, not the show. Never seen the show, but cannot stand cats.
  10. I forgot about Playmakers! May be a good option for lunch too. We've been to Johnny Rockets at least twice for lunch on other ships and it was just okay. Mason Jar is definitely on our list. Thanks.
  11. I'm trying to put together a UDP schedule for our upcoming cruise in February. Given these Specialty Restaurants from which to choose, which would you recommend for lunch on Embarkation Day and Sea Days? Which for Supper on all nights? 150 Central Park Chops Grille Giovanni Hooked Izumi Johnny Rockets Mason Jar Park Café Wonderland Thanks.
  12. Same thing for me. Drink package doesn't show in purchase history, nor did I receive an email confirmation, but by golly it hit my credit card already!
  13. Sailing Wonder of the Seas, we arrive in St. Thomas (Crown Bay, I think) at 7:30 AM on 2/9/2023 and depart at 3:00 PM. We'd like to do some snorkeling and some sightseeing. We've never been to either island. Are there any snorkeling excursions out of St. Thomas that would allow us to snorkel off St. John and still have time to get back to Charlotte Amalie for some walking around? Who would you recommend? Or should we just confine our excursion(s) to St. Thomas for time's sake? Thanks.
  14. I made the final payment yesterday, even though it wasn't due until 11/7; now it's done and I have nothing to worry about except losing the weight I will likely gain on the seven-night cruise with the UDP!😁 I do appreciate the comments about having a secondary, back-up credit card. I think I'll dig around for a good cashback card. Thanks all!
  15. What!, no gluttony? Kidding, I appreciate that advice as I do have a tendency to want to try many things. I wish they offered a sampler platter of some sort. Thanks.
  16. Looks like it's still down. I just checked and our upcoming cruise is not listed.
  17. Yeah, I called last week to check and the price of our cabin class dramatically increased! I mean like two-fold! Though I was able to take advantage of some price drops in the previous months!
  18. Did a quick search on the forum and too many results to filter though. RCI's site was no better. So, is room service included in the unlimited dining plan? Thanks.
  19. Thanks. How do I know what night is formal night on a 7-night cruise on Wonder of the Seas?
  20. Thanks all. Those responses are right in line with what I typically do. I, too, am one who does not carry over a balance on my credit card, and I only have the one. Though sometimes I wonder if I ought to have a second as a back up in case my primary quits working...
  21. Any options for crab legs on Wonder of the Seas?
  22. What! No tasting salts at 150 Central Park?! We really enjoyed those on Oasis! Nuts.
