I have a beach tent, 3 sides and top. no bottom and no zippers to close. I am planning a beach day before the cruise and on the cruise.

Will RC let me bring the beach tent onto the ship and then to Coco Cay?

Thanks for any input.

I don't know if it matters but it's Mariner of the Seas.

Yes, it is cheaper if you do it yourself. You can TRY to get in early or sneak away to decorate before yourself. I have it done it both ways and I will say that I much prefer to pay the extra and let them do it. I have gotten or brought decorations on all 5 cruises I have been on. Even when it was a themed cruise, then I brought my own but it was no surprise, just so I could find my door easier.

This door has a fish and mine is 5 doors down with the bon voyage sign. Hubby always said, "It's 206 right!" NO, IT'S THE ONE WITH THE MAGNET. Now that I think of it..... He may have been jacking with me. LOLOL

I chose NOT to watch the 60 minute special. :o I made my plans MANY MONTHS ago and it's too late to change them now. Now granted I was nervous about the 4 days of flights per week or whatever but decided I'd take that chance. My daughters were stranded (ok not stranded but had to pay additional to get another airline flight home) in Las Vegas when they flew Spirit. No big deal just another couple hours added to their vacation and more money. (NO, I WAS NOT HAPPY because I had to pay the extra money to get them home. And yes, I realize everyone does not have that luxury).

I choose to think of it as, I can't live my life around what MIGHT happen. :eek: You only hear about the BAD flights. You never hear about the hundreds of daily flights that make it perfectly fine to their destinations.

Now with all this said, I HOPE I MAKE IT TO MY CRUISE IN ONE PIECE!!! We leave tomorrow morning on Allegiant and this is to convince myself that everything will be just fine......(yn)

When we were on Oasis 2 weeks ago I bought my wife one of the pineapple drinks. It was $12 w/o the drink package and either $8 or $9 with the drink package.

Now that I've had a chance to think about it........ $8 or $9 for a PINEAPPLE!!! Sheesh...I'll think about that one for a while!

Great!! Thanks

Thor and cars3 are what I've seen thus far. Haven't paid too much attention. I'll look at the cruise compass later.

Thanks so much!! I was bringing Thor to watch on the plane so I'll grab another option just in case!! LOL

I have a few questions....... What movies were playing?

Do they serve pineapple or coconut drinks? Drinks IN the pineapple. Do you know if they are included in the drink package? Thanks so much. We board next Sunday and I am overly excited!!!!!

Can you tell me....... What movies were playing? and if pineapple/coconut drinks were served on the ship, do you know if they were included in the drink package? Thanks : )

If the redeemed $300.00 OBC shows up on my cruise planner prior to 4/29/18, can these credit card rewards be used on pre-cruise purchases or must the OBC be used only when on the ship?

I am able to use for pre cruise anything in the cruise planner. I chose not to so I can have when we sail. Also on the April 29 cruise.

Thanks for all this knowledge. I have found several sites and this makes sense since I was tracking Oasis for my cruise in 2 weeks (ish) to see what side of the ship I would be able to see lighthouses and islands etc, if that was even a thing, and which side we would dock on. I saw where Oasis made a stop in the Bahamas yesterday and on several sites, it is still there!! Even tho it is not. LOL

Thanks again

I am interested in seeing where the ships are currently at any given time. In REALTIME not where is should be. And any web cams that are real time and not frozen on a specific date 2 months old.

:D thanks

This is great, what restaurants are included (I'm sure this has been asked before, but it's hard trying to find answers).

I'm thinking about doing this but can someone explain what this is?

I pay $20 per person, and pick the time?

Then RCI chooses one of the restaurants for us to eat at.

We eat whatever on the menu, do we pay anything extra or is it just the $20 that I prepaid?

Seems like a fun idea but I don't want to be suckered into having to pay more when I sit down.

In 2015 we ordered a bottle while in the MDR and it was about $80 - $85 ish a bottle. Don't know if prices have changed at all buuuut........ it's a start.

Ok thank you

In some cases it will need to be notorized

Ahhh OK, thanks.

I've seen a lot but still haven't figured out what, who they are.

Thanks to anyone who can enlighten me. :)

Has anyone stayed at the Best Western Cocoa Beach? Any thoughts?

We had an anniversary a few years ago. When I booked the cruise I ordered decorations for the room and listed it as an anniversary and the date. I think it asked what day when asked if we were celebrating anything special. We never said anything else to anyone. To our surprise after dinner in the MDR, a dessert to share was brought with a chocolate happy anniversary was brought. Both waiters and the head waiter guy came over and wished us happy anniversary. Other than when I booked the cruise, we never told anyone else, or reminded anyone. They did that on their own.

I can see with so many people some might get overlooked. Like a previous poster, if you have the same wait staff everynight, tell them and they may do something. a special chocolate stick with happy birthday stuck on whatever dessert you order. It's not much but little things like that please me and hubby.

And like another poster, it will be what you make it. Have a relaxing time don't sweat it!!

6 weeks and counting:D

Fiiine :loudcry:........ thanks for your reply, guess I don't need to wake up early then zzzzzzz

No,

 

The Punta Sur lighthouse is on the southern end. Ships enter the channel from the north.

If we sail from Falmouth to Cozumel........ and IF I get up early enough.....will Oasis sail by the lighthouse? Will I be able to see it? Will it be on the port side or starboard side?

I feel silly..... I've seen this before...... what is a genie !!!

I just read about a lighthouse at Punta Sur by Cozumel. Can anyone tell me...... When sailing in from Falmouth, If I wake up early enough, does the ship sail by the lighthouse? Is it on the port or starboard side? Will I be able to see it? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

:D 7 more weeks!!

We are sailing in a few weeks. I believe our cabin is on the port side. Just wondering which side is better for sailaway, can we sit on our balcony and wave goodbye!

Sounds like a recipe for disaster. :eek:

For me right now.....YES IT IS. I CAN'T EVEN SEE WHAT'S IN MY BOOKED CRUISE!!! The date is there and the ship but where am I going.. Thankfully I have already printed my set sail pass but no luggage tags.
