I have these luggage tag holders as well and have used them on 5 cruises so far. They are extremely durable.

Well you dont have to stand at the gangway and greet them all as they come on board 😁cause i guarantee your not gonna run into all 8000 while onboard.

I get it to keep current with things going on in the world and for my kid to play his games at night in the cabin before bed.

well ok...next time

Well geeeeeez and you never called? Calgarys only 2.5 hrs away thats practically down the street around here, we coulda met up for coffee!!!!

Whereabouts were you?

i just made platinum so at my rate i might make diamond by the time im 90. That being said i agree with your points.

For the Canadians just sent mine away by mail yesterday so will see how long it takes.

This is gonna be interesting...great start.

The Bananas Foster is what i go for

I would love to sail from there.

we did it on the Pride. Awesome cruise.

2013 Carnival Liberty Back to Back Eastern/Western Carribean

I thought that way on our Alaska Cruise and opted for an Ocean View cabin. After trying to get a good view up on deck with the other 1500 people who thought that same thing i vowed our next trip to Alaska would be in a Balcony.

If you dont go till your app notifies you that your table is ready im not sure how there will be a line? At least ive never encountered one. The line occurs when everyone who is checking in stands outside until they do get a notice. Why do that when you could be sitting somewhere enjoying a drink or entertainment or just chatting with your group which is why Your time is so great.

actually they will put a hold each day on your credit card and that hold amount each day is equal to what you spent on board that day. ex: If you spent 150 on Monday that evening they would put a hold on your card for 150. The amount they put a hold on the very first day is usually based on your cruise length and for 7 days i believe its 200 dollars. This why a) you need room on your card for the holds plus what you plan on spending and b) you shouldn't use a debit card unless you have a large balance as the holds could be on for up to 2 weeks after you leave the ship tying up your cash. I do buy Cruise cash but only up to an amount i am sure to spend (usually 200 dollars) as its use it or lose it. I rarely buy Bar cash but if your looking to budget for your drinks it is a good option.

If your going to buy gift Cards from AARP i wouldnt use them to buy Cruise or Bar Cash. Best to just put them right on your account like the others say when your onboard. The kiosks work well and you can go when there isnt any lines.

a no show for a 4th passenger is not alot of money. why cancel when its just the one passenger and not the 1st or 2nd on the booking.

you didn't book return flights before your cruise?

There is only one gangway for embarkation and debarkation. During the cruise there may be 2 at the various Ports but never at the start or end of your cruise.

He would be doing a different dance if the gangway was already up.

Pretty sure (although ive been knownt to be wrong) ive read on here that you can buy a bucket of beer onboard too even if you have cheers.

You can also read the thread below yours that was asked for more info. Can we swap cabins between 2 of our travelers when onboard By Little Elm, Saturday at 11:14 PM

Do not rely on what youve "heard" go to your booking page and you can "see" what time it starts. Also FAQ's are correct but actual practice may vary from port to port. Follow the FAQ's and you will be ok.
