Are you parking at the port in Fort Lauderdale or a parking lot outside? I understand what Roy is saying about getting through security without an actual ship departure from Port Everglades.

My understanding is that it is refundable if you cancel the entire cruise before the penalty period and booked with a refundable deposit.

Well, if the Neptune Suite doesn't work out, at least you'll have the CO benefits including the tote bag!

It must be a glitch in the system. What else is new?

I don't think cancellation of Club Orange is allowed unless you cancel the cruise. I also don't think CO had anything to do with the paid upgrade. It would have been offered at the same price regardless. I agree with the strategy of trying to get a Neptune Suite upgrade. At that point your CO fee would be refunded. Keep checking. You never know when one will become available. Good luck.

The padlock is for Internet Explorer which I am still using. I can't find a way to delete cookies by pushing the padlock.

Wouldn't it be great if New Orleans was added to some regular itineraries.

How does it work with a special glass for the beverage machine? I can't image carrying a glass around all the time.

I can't believe you really got it back. Great news.

I know you do the facial recognition but you don't have to fill out forms or answer questions or go through the customs booths. So, no need for Global Entry.

You have a choice of either a king bed or two twins.

No because nobody really has to go through customs. You just leave.

I vote for VS 8188 but you better hurry before the offer is gone.

I would take the upgrade offer. $300 pp for a verandah sounds like a good deal. The verandah will be bigger than an inside. I don't think there is much chance you would get automatically upgraded to this category. If you do decide to upgrade, have a deck plan available because they usually let you pick your cabin.

Wow! Don't know what to say.

I would question this revised itinerary. The navigator app often has false information. It would be highly unlikely that they would change the itinerary back to it's previous ports.

Where are you seeing that?

Where will they put Billboard?

I wonder if this is accurate information. My understanding was that the Club Orange priority line at the front desk was for Neptune Suites and people who paid for Club Orange. If they added 4 and 5 star mariners, would that include the Club Orange priority line in the dining room and the shore excursion desk? How about the Club Orange dining room? People have paid to get these Club Orange benefits.

I can understand if Key West is limiting the size of ship or how many ships a day. What I don't understand is why the port is put on the schedule in the first place. They must know it is a problem.

I wonder why they aren't going to Amber Cove which has a nice little shopping area.

Thanks. Something didn't sound right about this but it does look legitimate.

Is Chargerback a legitimate company? Is it connected to Holland America?

I agree. We sailed in November and it just seemed that things were off with service, etc. Also, the ship seemed to be in need of maintenance.

No problem getting the lower price. However, if you have any added promotions, you might lose them if they are not currently being offered. I wouldn't wait to call. Prices can change rapidly.
