  1. Mike S. from Canada. I won't even attempt his last name. He is no longer with RCI. He was by far the best I have encountered, very talented at what he did and nothing about him was annoying.... that is a very big plus.

     

    He was the he BEST, hands down, it was Awesome when he did "Fountains"

  2. Have used them several times....BEST way to get around Cozumel....make sure that you go to the Wild side, Atlantic side, of Cozumel.....breathtakingly beautiful.....have asked for Contano several times, really like him, even though all of the drivers are very good

  3. Sailed on the Majesty at the beginning of this month......Outstanding cruise, outstanding crew....it was an awesome cruise.......not one thing to complain about.......have cruised on ALL classes of Royal Caribbean ships....the only difference is that this one does not have all of the bells and whistles.....you know that when you board the ship....just relax and enjoy your cruise.....food was as good as any Royal Caribbean ship I have ever been on (main dining room)....also had the pleasure of Dining at the Chef's table.....just one word to describe it....WOW.....I believe the price was 75 dollars including wine.....you also got a Royal Caribbean Cookbook, and a galley tour included in the price.....it only happens one night...only allow 8 people to dine ....... If you get Chef Bruno you are in for a real treat.....Majesty is a great ship to cruise on......

  4. Redman, you appear to be using a one size fits all formula in your reasoning. I taught school for 41 years in A Public School in Indiana. I had a Masters Degree plus 30 hours......the most I made in one year was 61 thousand dollars. My retirement benefit was based in how much I made PLUS how many years I taught. I also had an annuity that I paid into for all 41 years, money that I invested. I also paid into Social Security for all 41 years, so I think that I am entitled to my MY Social Security benefit. Please understand that each state is different in how they deal with retirement benefits for their teachers.....also understand the day that I walked out the door, I had to pay totally for my insurance.....I 100 percent pay for my Medicare, Parts A and B and my Drug plan plus Medicare supplement. I have no paid for Health Insurance from my employer, that stopped the day that I walked out the door. I worked in the greatest profession in the world, when it started to become a job, I walked out the door, and never looked back. I don't apologize the money that I made then ,and the benefits that I have now, I earned every one of them. Finally if you don't think that teachers might deserve some sort of break that is fine, that is your opinion......but it does amaze me how some other jobs or professions get a break on cruising , and no one blinks an eye.....just my opinion....

  5. Great trip, have done it twice......fun whether you are a drinker or not.....first stop has the best beach, Coconuts is nice....fantastic view from the highest part of the island on the Eastern side.....several steps to climb to get up there, but the view is awesome..... Third stop.....Playa Bonita is my favorite stop.....right, and I mean right on the ocean...fantastic food, and the biggest BEST Margarita you will ever see, the Atomic Margarita...pace youself....Rastas is the fourth stop.....very laid back .....think Bob Marley......famous for their Coconut shrimp..... You get on the bus as strangers, by the time you leave Cocunuts, you will be singing on the bus like a well oiled choir, well maybe not that good....by the time you get off you will have copies of everyone's children and grandchildren, plus be on their Christmas card list

  6. I took a float plane tour with Island Wings air service out of Ketchikan.... island wings and Michelle are the BEST.....depending on what time you Dan schedule your flight will determine how much time you have to do other things.....the whole thing takes about 2 1/2 hours........one of the two best things we did in Alaska

  7. Have been to all three restaurants on various ships. I know that food is a very subjective thing, but Central Park 150 might be one of the most disappointing meals I Have ever had on. Cruise ship.....outstanding service and presentation, but just didn't care for the food at all. if you are not a beef person, you might not want to do Samba Grill. On the other hand, have eaten at Giovanni on three different ships, outstanding food, service, and presentation, plus several different choices....again I know that food is very subjective, but just my opinion
