  1. Just got off Prima also and had no problem seeing them. There was a drop down arrow at the top of the screen where you could toggle between decks. Was using an iPhone if that matters.
  2. Just an FYI that the cabin category upgrade perk doesn't apply to solo cabins, i.e., studios or solo balconies don't qualify. I tried last week when the only solo balconies on the cruise I wanted were right by Splash Academy. Even gave a pouty face but the guy just laughed.
  3. Heard at the buffet this morning: A "gentleman" in his 80s was moving the ropes to get to the buffet food even though it didn't open for another 15 min. The sweet girl behind the food line told him the buffet wasn't open yet and where he could get some food. His response? "Give me two g** d*** bananas NOW!" I'm ashamed to say I sunk to his level and told him he was a jacka**.
  4. Asawi is correct. On the main screen that comes up with the "Things To Do" links, in the upper right corner are three horizontal bars. Click on this and you'll see a Deck Maps link.
  5. Also, an FYI to keep your meds with you. Twice so far since embarkation, they've left a sheet in our cabins to check under our beds (huh?) for a misdelivered small piece of luggage. They stated it contains medications. My heart goes out to that person.
  6. I'm on Prima. The drop off area was the Improv. There was a big sign in the Atrium. I didn't use it so can't say how secure it was. For both legs of my B2B, the rooms weren't ready before 2:30pm. At that time, they announced individual decks as they became ready.
  7. I'm currently doing a B2B on Prima and agree with your points. I do have perspective on spring break vs non and the deck 8 Ocean Walk over crowding issue. Last week, we had over 600 kids on board. There was literally no place to sit at either the pool deck or on deck 8. I couldn't get a Vibe pass last week and on sea days, I'd walk for an hour looking for somewhere outside to sit. This week, very few kids and still pretty much every lounger has a caboose sitting on it. Way too much real estate is taken up by Vibe and The Haven. I think deck 17 (pool, buffet, Vibe, Observation Lounge) was designed by someone with a substance problem. Although the staff has been excellent, the price would need to be really great to get me on a Prima class ship again.
  8. Don't want to schlep liquor home. I like the Starbucks gift cards idea. Now that I know I can roll over to the next leg, another trip to Onda is in my future.
  9. Just asked and they will roll over to the next leg.
  10. Trying to plan my next cruises while currently cruising. As soon as we neared Mexico, the NCL site switched to Spanish and Mexican currency. Easily figured out how to convert to English but don't see any way to switch to dollars. Since I'll be at sea for a few more weeks, was wondering if there's a way to do this. I've got 4 Cruise Next certs begging to be spent. Also, can't decide if I hate the Prima or not. Jury's still out. Will post a review after the next cruise. Think the huge amount of kids onboard this week is skewing my opinion.
  11. Currently cruising on Prima and had pre-paid for specialty dining, excursions and internet before deciding to buy shares in early March. Was hoping to use the shareholder OBC on a Vibe pass but none were available on embarkation day. Bought some Cruise Next certificates but guess it doesn't get applied to those. Filled up a bag with laundry and sucked down some Frappuccinos but still have over $50 left. Other than Food Republic or the stuff in the shops, what can I spend it on? I'm doing a B2B but it's a separate reservation so I'm assuming it's only good for the first leg, correct?
  12. Please stop doing this. Some people have severe intolerances to the scents. If I'm in a room where there is, or has recently been, Febreezes or scented candles, I get a debilitating headache that lasts for hours.
  13. That's OK. I'm doing a B2B starting on the 29th. I'll see what I can find out.
  14. I'll airdrop you some hash browns if you sneak back in again and ask the lucky ones where they got the Vibe tickets on embarkation day. I'm on in two weeks.
  15. Had a friend who got married on an RCCL ship and paid $200 for an 8" round cake that had a few flowers on it.
  16. For those with a similar issue in the future, I contacted the Accessibility Assistance folks listed in the link above (Thanks, Hallux) and got a response in less than 24hrs that there'd be a fridge brought to my room. Kind of hope it's not the normal-size one since it's a studio but beggars can't be choosers. I've left myself a note to remember to report back on what they sent.
  17. If the med froze, I'd have to toss it. That's outside the storage parameters.
  18. Thanks. I checked the monograph and unopened vials can be stored at room temp for a week.
  19. I'm in a studio cabin on the Prima for the first leg of my B2B cruises. Have a small vial of meds that needs to be kept chilled. Does anyone know if they have small chillers available or another way to keep meds cold? Would I need to contact someone prior to embarkation? Thanks Karen
  20. Anyone know for sure on Prima where Vibe tickets are sold on embarkation day? Booked a studio cabin after final payment and Vibe was sold out. Don't want to go to Guest Services if they're selling them someplace else. Thanks Karen
  21. The letter left in my stateroom says Ilona Tsyhaniuk is the Crown Lounge Concierge
  22. Just looked at the schedule for tomorrow and saw Mariner and 4 other ships were scheduled to be in Cozumel tomorrow. Looks like lots of people will be impacted by the changes.
  23. The captain just announced that due to strong winds, Radiance will not be leaving Cozumel today for Costa Maya. We're staying tied up for another day and hopefully departing tomorrow evening for the trip back to Tampa. Haven't gone by Guest Services yet but I can imagine the whining and complaining. The Sky Princess, tied up alongside us, is staying, too. About 5:30am Sunday, we passed through that strong front that brought the severe storms to Florida. I woke up to find myself sliding down to the end of my bed, drawers and cabinets flying open, and the stuff in my bathroom cabinet falling off the shelves. It was quite the lightning show for about an hour. The captain said very strong winds had shifted so suddenly, the ship listed to port. We have two more days left of this cruise. Can't wait to see what Mother Nature throws at us next. Maybe I should sleep with my life jacket on. 😉
