My daughter and I were in the DR last month and did a ship excursion, a city tour with beach break. Only problem for me was lots of walking which I can't do, but my daughter enjoyed it . I stayed on the nice ac bus. Also they drop you off at the other end of the shops and again a long walk back to ship. That being said they do have a free shuttle that will get you to the end of the pier. Also there is a pool and lazy river where the shops are located that is also free or at least that's what we were told.

I'm onboard and never heard anything on Monday night but, felt something yesterday morning. We were having breakfast in the Windjammer by the window when we felt a shutter like a car feels when you slam on the brakes. Then the ship slowed and we stopped moving . We watched fir about 5 to 10 minutes every so often the ending would churn up the water and it looked like it was trying to turn a bit then it would stop. We mentioned it to the one of the head waiter and asked if he knew of any problems he said no everything is fine . Well after a bit we were moving again but very slowly. That happen at about 10 in the morning. The announcement to forgo all ports was about 3:30 I believe. We are also on the next cruise so hoping it gets fixed. This portion wasn't really that big of a deal for us been to the ports before so not too disappointed. I do feel bad for people that are only on this leg. We booked to just sail rather than fly. Oh and we already received onboard credit. If I get anymore updates I'll come back and post.

The obc is put on your account . So yes when you go to the casino just charge to your room account till its used up. In my case it doesn't take too long.

That explains why I received an email to arrive 1 hour later for boarding on Monday.

I'm excited having another ship here , but not with the short itineraries. Hope they do something about the parking too there isn't enough room for more passengers. Quantam is my less favorite of the 4 quantam class that I have been on. But it's great going from no ships here for about 10 years to having 2.

Was our first cruise also Aug 88, can't remember the itinerary just remember it was the Caribbean. Funny story behind this trip my husband planned the whole thing to surprise me for our anniversary. The surprise would have been horrendous had it gone the way he planned. He was going to tell me about it a couple of days before the trip, but thank goodness some women he worked with told him he better give me more time. He ended telling me 3 weeks before and I spent the next 2 weeks trying to figure out what you should wear on a cruise and shopping. After that one I was hooked for life.

Just got off Navigator b2b and did save some money. They use to have the whole side wall of poker machines, not anymore. They put new penny slots there and moved a few poker machines over to the corner near the ladies room. Of the eight machines 6 worked all the time , another became available somewhere near day 8 for me. Every night myself and others would rush down after dinner to find them full. I ended up not gambling 4 out of 11 days. Only partially on 3 other nights cause I went back down after 11 pm. Just don't understand why they took them out. By the way Penny slots were never full.

I have tried finding out how to get to Tri-rail station. All I can find is level 3 to people mover. Sounds good but does anyone know which terminal it's a big airport. On airport site it says Skytrain is temporarily closed is that the same as people mover tram ? Thanks in advance for any help.

When in March is your cruise ? Mine is March 8th and I just got my Royalup offer yesterday.

Just ask for large carafe when ordering. If you like cream don't forget to ask for extra , because they never give enough.

Last year the few times we cruised Navigator no prizes. One of the times grandkids won and they were sad not to get anything. Was also on Jewel sailing in Sept no prizes but coupons.

No , I only have TSA precheck. Guess I'll have to find something later than noon. Thanks

Looking at available flights for my return home on May 3rd 2024. What would be the earliest flights that are doable, without making 2 older ladies hair more gray. We will probably have 1 large and 1 roll aboard each.

Totally agree with Jimbo the internet on Jewel was terrible. Getting kicked off constantly.

I'm close to 500 points and have never received upgraded toiletries. Just got home last week , from a cruise I thought I would ask about it . Upon asking my cabin attendant was told I'd have to go to C/A to ask for it. I didn't need it that bad.
