Love PalmTrees

Just to keep in mind, I have family in Europe and travel there from time to time.  Europeans tend to dress less casual than us in the US.  People wearing t-shirts and sneakers are often tourists.  This is also a trigger for pickpockets etc.  

Also, many smaller shop owners, restaurants (even in the big cities) do not accept credit cards especially US credit cards due to the higher fees.  We once even had a hotel owner who did not accept our US credit card and, yes, I did inquire beforehand but not specifically a US card.  I always go to my local bank to purchase Euro's prior to our travels.  Better exchange rate.  

Thanks so much!!  😀

I meant not to carry on, but rather what is available from the bars on the ship.  We have the Deluxe Bev Pkg.  Sorry, I should have been more specific.  

Tap on the blue "Dining" icon in the banner across the bottom.  

Tap on "Main Dining" in banner across the top.

Tap on one of the Main Dining options.

If the menu is available, it will show up near the center of the next screen. Tap on the blue "Menu".

Just an FYI, mine showed up about 30 days prior.  Mangia!!  

Anyone recently on the Vision...

Did they have plastic bottles or cans of water?  Want to know if I should pack my water bottle.  Thanks!!

Yes, if you are Pinnacle.  Then again, if Pinnie numbers are too high, they are excluded.   D+ lost CL access months ago...permanently.  

 

Otherwise you must be in a Grand Suite or higher.  JS do not count..as they are not full suite.  

Thanks for the clarification.  Have just recently cruised/booked Jr Suites.  I thought Jr Suites weren't eligible for Suites Lounge, but want to be sure we aren't missing out.  Thanks!! 😄

Quick question.  We are booked in a Jr Suite on Explorer.  Can we also use the CL?  Thanks!!

Keep the Port side; breakfast on the balcony in the sunshine! 
 

I love this idea.  Thanks!!  

Thanks, everyone!  DH and I prefer some sun, but not sure about all day.  Currently I have a port side cabin booked.  Interesting comments on that former thread too.  Since we are crossing Atlantic in Autumn, I imagined the warmth of the sun may be welcome. (I am usually cold and you will probably see me out there wrapped in a blanket. Haha)  Will discuss with DH later. Thanks, again! 😀

Good input.  Will keep that in mind.  Thanks!

Any preferences/considerations for port vs starboard cabin on a westbound transatlantic??  I see that more of the starboard side cabins are booked vs port. Thanks! 

We were on the Enchantment in late Feb/early Mar 2023 with late seating traditional dining.  The first night my fish was tasty, but barely room temp. At the end of the meal, our waiter asked how the food was.  I told him in nice way that it was good, but barely warm.  He was so apologetic and offered to get me another main dish.  I thanked him, but had had more than enough other food to fill me up.  He said going forward that he would check the temp of the plate to make sure the food was hot.  The rest of the cruise my food was hot.  I also ordered mostly the Chef's Recommendation and was never disappointed.  This was the first time I tried that strategy.  Our waiter and assistant waiter were vey pleasant and always going out of their way to please us.  In all honesty, service tended to be on the slow side, but we are on vacation and it is nice to linger not be hurried.

Thanks of all the info!!

Great idea about the mock booking!!  The sq ft remains the same for both J3 and J4.  It must be that some cabins have a sofa and others a sofa bed??  Thanks, everyone!! 😎

Hi!  Is there any difference in sq footage of Jr Suite, or size of balcony, for those that accomodate 2 vs 4 passengers?  Is the sofa smaller or larger?  Thanks!!

Thanks.  I was afraid of that.  I will have to take a look at cabin selections again.  

Hello, fellow cruisers!  Has anyone stayed in Explorer cabin 9568?  There is a larger white space across the hall, which may be a steward storage/work area.  On our last cruise there was a similar area down the hall and we noticed cabin stewards there most of the day with the workroom door open, working and talking.  If this is the case, I am considering moving to another cabin.  Any other comments about this cabin?  Thanks so much and have a great day!!  😄

Thanks!  I searched the Cruise Critic forum and nothing on 8078.  Good idea to look on YouTube.  Thanks again!  😄  

Hi!  Does anyone know if this cabin (Jr Suite) has a pole??  Thanks so much!  😀

Also received same notification on phone, but somehow I had been logged out.  Couldn't log back in.  On my computer I was able to log in briefly but it showed that I have ZERO upcoming cruises.  No true.  I have one cruise coming up. 🤔

The timing of your review couldn't be any better.   Just yesterday I booked a cruise on Enchantment.  Woohoo!!    After a long hiatus from cruising or any travel for that fact (moving cross country, our dear but very geriatric dog, and then, well, Covid), we are ready to be on the seas once again.  I love your photos and all your posts.  Have a great cruise.  Thanks!! 😀 

Thanks you so much for letting us "sail along" on your cruise.  Just yesterday I booked a cruise on Enchantment.  Woohoo!!   Loooove your review so far, enjoying your commentary and photos.  After a long hiatus from cruising or any travel for that fact (moving cross country, our dear but very geriatric dog, and then, well, Covid), we are ready to be on the seas once again.  Thanks!! 😀

Thanks for the smoking deck info!!  It's good to be researching cruises again. 💙  🛳️

Do you recall which deck and side the outside smoking are is?  Just beginning to plan a cruise.  Thanks so much!😀

Thanks!  I have been forced to watch corny old episodes of "The Love Boat" to get my "cruise fix".  Haha.  Stay safe - stay healthy, everyone!!
