• I used CVS, made appointment for rapid test explained I was traveling and had to have results for a Saturday departure.  I did not have results until Tuesday when I was on the ship.  I ended up going to Lab Doctor in Fort Lauderdale on Saturday am.  Had results within 15 minutes.  Have a great cruise.

Yes, I paid $49 also.

I was there on Feb 5 about 10:30 am.  I walked in and registered, sat down and they called me before I within 10 minutes.  Did the test and was out the door and on the way to the pier within 15 minutes.  Will use them again!

Just back today...Yesterday we were at sea!

Trying to book N. Amsterdam Nov. 4 - 11, 2018, chartered for Malt Shop Cruise.

Then checked Oct 21 - 28 and there is a large group. USSVI - a group of retired/former submarine personnel. We booked it.

On the Rotterdam in January. The lanai cabin (3323) did not have a refrigerator.

Also there was no signage on the deck chairs indicating they were for guests in the lanai cabins. I went to inquire at the front desk and was told that the signage for the chairs had not been received but I could call the front desk or the room steward and they would send someone up to advise passengers about the deck chairs. They told me I could ask the passenger to move. I was disappointed but never called the front desk nor did I become the "chair Police" Better luck to you!

Just a quick note.

Several years ago we were on the Westerdam with a Master Chef group. Yes it was a large group not a charter.

Unless you had booked with the Master chef group you were not able to attend their functions. I heard several passengers commenting that they were not able to book some of the specialty dining areas. Master chef had the lower level dining completely booked for late seating.

We still had a great cruise and they didn't seem to "take over" the Ship.

Have a great time whatever you decide.

I'll be on the Westerdam , Nov. 8 and yes I plan to wear white capris and slacks. Have fun.

My husband (retired USMC) carries his wallet tucked in his sock.

We have never had a problem parking in Fort Lauderdale. We were on the Maasdam in January and there were at least 10 ships in port including the Amsterdam leaving the world cruise and parking was available in the garage.
