    see the Matre' d and $20 will fix everything.

    Yep, nice place did it about 4 X's build in $15-$20 taxi fare each way in your budget. That was for two of us, last time 3 years ago. We now stay close to town and visit local friends.
  3. CC Rider 69
    Yep, us too. 3X's on the Ruby last year, the on and off process was a breeze. Of course, we live close to the pier and opt for a 1-2 o'clock boarding time.
  4. CC Rider 69
    Yep, used it on the Ruby this past February, March, and April.

    A friend that was on the 11-5 sailing it took them 2 hours from ship to car. She heard facial recognition was gone unlike last spring when I sailed, it was like 15 minutes, and you are out of here. Something is amiss.
  6. CC Rider 69
    Let us know if they are using facial recognition, last cruise they didn't and the line was, well............. according to a friend long and slooooooooooooooooow.

    [I just realized I left my wallet on the ship. I have no money with me.] Rookie mistake...........have you left your medallion in the room yet and locked yourself out?

    Last spring on the Ruby, sailing at 1600 hrs, we were drinking on the package by 1830 hrs. Yes, they do give you $25 OBC, plus you can bring two bottles of wine on board. Of course this doesn't help out the beer drinkers in the crowd. This is better than another line that sails out of GLS where they wait until the next day.

    Try off the menu. It might be like the MDR and Caesar salad, shrimp cocktail, and banana splits were not on the menu, but you can request them. Well, it was in the spring.

    Facial recognition at terminal, why wasn't it utilized on debarkation? Is this going to be permanent?
  11. CC Rider 69
    In March and April, it was in the MDR on the Ruby.

    I think you can order one if you like it so much. They use to be custom made from somewhere in NY if beliee.

    Same thing happened to me. I went to GS and explained and they were able to see where I had paid. I was told to keep the reservation and GS credited my OB account. However, I did go by CG and confirm that my reservation was still on the books. All was good.

    According to buoy 42019 (100 mi offshore) in the gulf, Max swells are forecasted as 6-8 with a 6 second between crest. Windy predicts a NE wind 22mph. Wave height will remain however winds will subside t3mph when you're alongside tomorrow.

    The numbers were similar on our 3-19 sailing, lots of newbies. Yes, Captain Lewis is quite an entertaining guy. We have sailed with him 3 times this year. Being a SOASOAS, I never wanted to miss his noon announcements. When we board tomorrow, he will start his holiday.
  17. CC Rider 69
    Yep, we were there in mid-January and saw a big MSC ship refuse to dock due to sea and wind conditions. So this time it must have been really bad. As they say, IT HAPPENS ...................
  18. CC Rider 69
    Thanks for the review, I think it convinced my wife into doing a SA cruise.
  19. CC Rider 69
    So true, just checked winds ond you're getting a steady 20K, with 30K gust from the ESE, not good for COsta Maya docking.
  20. CC Rider 69
    Hydrate it gets hot in the jungle.
  21. CC Rider 69
    It will tomorrow when you deck in Costa Maya. Malecon 21 is a beach club in town. We go there every time when can. Usually you need reservations, but maybe you could snag a lounge. They do have a website, and it's an interesting ride to town.
  22. CC Rider 69
    Try Del Mar Latino Cozumel, it's either a short walk towards town (1/2 mi) or an $8 cab ride. It's small and the service is good. If you can get a reservation, get there early to insure a prime spot. It's $39 pp all inclusive, but it does have a small beach area that is not on the coast. However, you do have steps down to the waters edge.
  23. CC Rider 69
    There is a LIVE review from Talkorpi for the 4-2 sailing. If you ask, I'm sure they'll check and respond.
  24. CC Rider 69
    We haven't had Boddington since the Ruby's been in GLS. The Ruby musted have gotten a shipment of Grolsch, it is a good beer for the pub lunch.
  25. CC Rider 69
    FYI, Captain Lewis is going on holiday starting the 4-9-23 sailing. His dry humor will be missed. I don't know who the relieving skipper is, so if you get a chance see if you can find out. TIA
