Would you do 3-4 day at Great Stirrup Cay ?
miataman19 replied to Beer Belly's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Sometimes I'll do a 3 day - 4 day back to back. Been to most Caribbean ports many times and stay on the ship on most sailings, really enjoy the empty ship on the Nassau and private island beach days. Most of the time the price is similar or cheaper. -
It will be interesting to see how the lines will handle each individual Port of Call. Just booked an excursion to Jost Van Dyke for my January 2022 sailing. Many hoops to jump thru to get into BVI right now. We will see...

Key West Votes to Limit Cruise Ship Visits
miataman19 replied to nocl's topic in Holland America Line
Quick story. Was sitting at the bar at Schooner Wharf next to a gentleman wearing a ratty t-shirt board shorts, flip flops, scruffy beard. We sat there for about 2 hours drinking beer and talking (sounds like a country song, I know). He finally said good bye and left. I asked the bartender if he was a local, just because of his appearance. The bartender laughed and told me to turn around and look into the harbor. He said, see that giant yacht with the helicopter on it, it's his. Bartender says he comes to KW every year for about 2 months and just chills. We come here for a week, twice a year. -
Just checked https://www.livecruiseshiptracker.com/2017/09/27/eurodam-cruise-ship-tracker-app-vessel-tracker-name-live-cruise-ship-positions/ Eurodam is docked in Curacao. At least she's in the Caribbean. Hopefully sailing January 10th.

Final payment for 10 day cruise due 11/9
miataman19 replied to vswan's topic in Holland America Line
I was in the same boat (bad joke). I made my final payment for my 01/10/21 on Eurodam. I went ahead and made the final payment knowing that if THEY cancel I'll be able to re-book with perks or get a full refund. I'm not very hopeful so I made back up plans for a 6 day vaca in Key West. Fully refundable until January 5. -

Am I crazy to book a 4 day cruise in October?
miataman19 replied to Matco's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I was thinking about October to re-book my July sailing. But decided to just move it to August 2021. Hopefully that won't get cancelled..lol -
Cruise cancelled but still showing on my account
miataman19 replied to EllieinNJ's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
My March 23rd sailing was showing right up to the day of sailing. If I remember correctly it was cancelled on March 13th. I finally got my refund today. This might give some folks a timeline on how quick the refunds are going out. Booked with carnival directly. -
If my cruise is canceled in July I'll go to Key West (if it's open)

I've only done 1 TA and it was on Cunard's QE2. That sailing was the best cruise I have ever taken. Cabin, service, food, enrichment programs were all excellent. You will not be bored. Carnival will have plenty of thing to keep you busy. Like with any cruise the only thing that you won't like is having to get off the ship.

Mardi Gras or NCL Breakaway May 2021?????
miataman19 replied to etravel's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
NCL Breakaway......Sailed on NCL Getaway, Haven Suite. 2nd best sailing I've ever sailed. Best was Cunard QE2. -
Thank you for sharing. This brings back some fond memories. Myself and 3 friends had a plan to sail on all 3 of the original Carnival ships in 1 year. We did Carnivale March 1989. Mardis Gras August 1989. Had Festivale booked December 1989 but 2 of my friends had a death in their family and the Festivale sailing had to be cancelled. We never did re-book. Those ships were awesome.
