Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. We just returned from a 12 day cruise on the Spirit. We had a balcony cabin 10678 which was 4 cabins down from the exit door to the pool area by H2O Spice. We loved this location as it was a short walk back to the cabin if you forgot anything plus it was quiet. The bar pool closed down at 7 pm each night. The only noise we heard was from our noisy next door neighbors who kept their television blaring on high until midnight each night, and then got up in the morning and started talking loudly around 7 am. Hopefully, you will have more considerate neighbors.
  2. We will be staying in this area in a balcony on the Spirit starting November 26 for 12 days. I can come back here and answer your questions about the traffic and noise when I get back.
  3. We will go at my time (10:30). If they don't let him on, I will wave to him from the ship with a drink in my hand. LOL.
  4. My husband had the same problem logging in. We even called twice. By time they got him logged in, he now has a 1:00 boarding time and mine is at 10:30.
  5. Just off the Enchantment of the Seas last week. We booked an interior guaranty and was assigned 4549. Pros: it was towards the center of the ship so relatively close to everything. Cons: Under the casino and a connecting room. The first couple days we could hear the people next to us coughing a lot. We could hear a lot of scraping of chairs being moved around in the casino. It wasn't enough to wake us up but it was hard to go to sleep with it going on. It only lasted an hour or two a day and it was always at different times each day. If I had booked and chosen my room, I probably wouldn't have picked this room but it wouldn't keep me from booking a guaranty again. This is my fourth guaranty and this was the only one I didn't really love.
  6. Thanks for the information. If we don't hear anything soon, we will contact that phone number.
  7. My husband sent his passport renewal in the end of June for regular processing. We found out two weeks later that he was $10 short on the fee so he resent it with additional funds plus $60 for expedited processing on July 19. Three weeks later his check for the additional money sent in still hasn't been cashed and still no updates to his account. We cruise in 4 weeks. We are starting to get nervous. Keeping our fingers crossed!
  8. Totally agree. After spending a day in port in both Cozumel and Belize, we have traveled back and spent over a month in each place. It is like getting a sample when you visit on a cruise.
  9. Yes, I own shares in all three companies and the price per share was down again overnight. I bought low so I am not overly concerned at this point.
  10. I had heard of the bar code trick and was skeptical but that was indeed my cabin assignment once they officially assigned it. I am not an Apple user so I just downloaded a bar code reader and that worked.
  11. Mine is not on the Mariner but I had an inside guaranty on The Enchantment departing Sept 8. I booked about two months ago. I just got my assignment (30 days out from my cruise) and I am happy with it. Hopefully you will get your assignment soon. I have done guaranties at least three times on various cruise ships and always been happy with my assignment.
  12. My cruise is Sept 8 (less than 5 weeks away) and I haven't received mine yet for the Enchantment.
  13. Thanks for the information. I suspected that even if there were Ubers or Lyfts, they may not be too reliable. I also saw that there is a walking trail from Bar Harbor to Acadia that might be a possibility.
  14. We are visiting Acadia NP from a cruise ship in September. There are 4 seniors in our group (2 of which have Senior NP passes). I am assuming 2 of us will get in free if we take the bus and the other 2 will pay $15. We typically all four ride in the same car and don't pay. Just wondering if it might be cheaper to take an Uber at least to the park. Thanks in advance for clarifying.
  15. We used Verifly on an Alaskan cruise last week. It took 30 minutes from the time we were dropped off until we were sitting in our cabin. It was the fastest check-in ever!
