12:25 should be fine for a domestic flight from Newark Airport.

Thanks for the info. What time would you suggest that we should depart the ship?

We are sailing on the Quantum in Feb. What would be a reasonable flight departure time? There was one at 12:25pm but when doing the on-line check in they suggested a departure time after 1pm.

We are thinking of booking Quantum of the Seas for Feb 2nd. We have never been to this area and would like to do a tour of NYC on Sun. Flying into EWR on Sat. Since it is Feb we do not want to do a lot of walking in NYC (cold). Would it be better to stay near EWR and take the car service from there or stay in NYC with car service from there for the tour? Is a car service the best option to get to & from NYC?

At least that is what the cover letter called us.We were on the March 23 Navigator that was late then stuck in port due to a oil spill. We did to do a 4 day to Mexico but we're told we would get a free cruise and 25% of of our next cruise to be used in the next year. Not a bad comp to help take care of our expenses incurred,airfare,lodging and vacation used.Here is where it gets ugly to me. We used 125000 Rccl credit card points and upgraded to a balcony room. The booking confirmation shows a cruise fare of $1199.00 per person of which 25% would be just short of $300.00 each. They sent a certificate for $13.00 each and the uppers at Rccl was only going to pay the 25% of what we paid to change cabin type? I may be a little greedy but I saved for years for those points and BOA paid with the money the earned from me to Rccl for the free 7 night cruise. The call to them included a 60 minute hold,then them telling that is the way it is, and they are very sorry. Any ideas or am I wrong in feeling it's not right. Thanks Steve

We were on the same cruise. Monday night they announced the cruise was canceled. Tues morning they announced that if you wanted to leave you could but you had to pick up your car by 6pm. We left about noon. I have to book through Dialysis at Sea. I called them before we left the ship to let them know we were leaving & was told that the unused treatments would be refund. Now there story has changed - no refund. It is $1950 for a week of dialysis.

Also having problems with RCCL & getting refunds. They have credited us with $766. The cruise alone was $1251 (had two $720 voucher from a incident on Allure in Oct) so the credit is short $484. The 25% voucher should have been $312 & they sent vouchers for $151.

What a nightmare.

Just got the Marriott Biscayne Bay for a bid of $55 for 9/9 - 9/10 for a pre cruise stay.

Is the Pan Pacific considered a 4 or 5* with Priceline? Were you aiming to get the Pan Pacific?

It i rated 4* on Priceline. I really thought I would get the Hyatt as that is what had been posted on better bidding dot com. I was shocked when it came up Pan Pacific.

May I suggest that you try bidding for a room on Priceline.com. We have been reading many post this season of CCs getting 4* hotels in the $75 to $150 range. No 4*hotel in the downtown area is really much further than another from the Sea Wall. :)

Putterdude this is the way to go. I just got the Pan Pacific for $93 + tax USD for 8/27.

Now a question we are on Royal Caribbean so how far is there pier from this hotel? We are taking the train from Seattle. What would you suggest for a afternoon tour?

Doing Alaska Northbound in Aug 2009 and had questions on cabin selection. Can get D1 - 9576, 9578 or 9580 (hump) or 1104 or 1604 (aft). The other option is E2 - 8592, 8594. or 8596 (hump). Has anyone stayed in these cabins? What are your thoughts on cabin selection?
