    I have already purchased the unlimited laundry for my 14 day Alaska cruise. Anticipating that we will get wet and muddy on excursions it's great to know we can pack light, save on bag fees, and always have clean clothes!!!!  

    We were able to pack for a 2 week panama cruise in carry on bags and a backpack each,  one checked bag each way paid for the laundry ( disney was self serve)

    With the average drink price in a bar on HAL at  about $8 which is much cheaper than most land bars, why would you want to smuggle any booze aboard the Ship (not a boat). Spent this past week at a Renaissance  Hotel and Manhattan's were $13.95 each, but I was on an expense account, now that was some expensive drinking. 

    Thats like $50 Canadian 😂😳🤣

    I was told aboard the Amsterdam that I could not get delivered by room service anything that was not on the room service menu.  We were in a NS on a GV, and I wanted a grilled cheese sandwich.  So . . . I would not be too optimistic about chicken wings being delivered.

    I think he just want chicken wings in general, we wont let him order food to the room anymore, no one likes the smell. On disney the teens could get pizza until 1 am ( the youth leaders ordered them in)

    My teens had a hard time getting "late night" food on our last cruise.  I second the "get food from Lido and keep in room" idea.  Sometimes room service can take awhile.  Just my 2 cents.

     

    Are you on the NA for the Apr 14th to Mexico?

    March 23 ( our spring break)

  5. I got this email today

    In some US states (Florida for example) an extra 7% state tax is added when you are in a Florida port, or sailing from one Florida port to another, e.g. Tampa to Key West.

    What about San Diego?

    What would he wear if he was going to dine in a nice restaurant at home? Does he wear socks with his sandals?

    Well as of Friday my teen will be. He unfortunately had to get unexpected surgery on his foot and cant get a shoe on.

    If my cruise next month on the Nieuw Amsterdam happens to not count the non-alcoholics, then I'll be happy to upgrade from Signature to Elite.  Wife and I drink lots of bottled water with our wine and cocktails, and also enjoy multiple specialty coffees and sodas each day.  We would hate to use up over half our daily ration on "cheap" beverages if we got the Elite.

    I see on the boards they dont count the non alcoholic but even today customer service is still saying 15 total, we are on the NA in 3 weeks

    Are there any lesser-talked-about items you can get with the EBP that you can't get with the SBP? For instance, I read in another thread that someone attended the mixology class for free by having the EBP (it counted as a single drink since it was $15/pp). Are there other more "hidden" things like that that would make the EBP more appealing if one isn't too picky on alcohol or wines?
     

    Its not hidden its listed right on the package hand out
