  1. We did a b2b 6/12 - 6/26. We arrived later than expected to the terminal (issues with the shuttle) a little after 1. Porter took our luggage and we stood in a short line outside waiting to get into air conditioning. About 5 minutes outside then we were in. Our lowly gold status helped us bypass the snake and walk through to security. This was were we hit a snag. Only a few people in line ahead of us but they shut the detectors down and nobody got through. After about a 15 minute wait they started again, but all those people in the snake had caught up. Took another 15 minutes or so to get through and into our next line to check in. Again our gold status let us use a special line and check in took another 15 minutes. Overall not too bad, but could have been quicker.

    Going home... our shuttle wasn't scheduled until noon so we weren't in a hurry, and good thing. We were among the last numbers to be called and got off just before 10. It took an hour plus in line to get to our luggage. We didn't utilize the porter and had to stand in another snake line to get to customs. Another 20 minutes or so in line and finally outside about 11:20. We felt so bad for the crew. They had to wait for all passengers to be out. They were lined up beside us waiting to get to their luggage.

    Sorry this was so long but wanted to share our experience. My advice: give yourself time and use a porter. Good luck.

  2. I booked a promenade room for our anniversary trip and later decided to add a second week. I booked the cheapest possible, an inside gty hoping they would keep us in the same room. They did not, we were assigned the lowest cabin available. We sail in about a month and there are lots of rooms available including the PR we are in for week 1. A painfully long and complicated call to the TA and $90 later we were able to upgrade and keep the PR for week 2. We still saved a few hundred dollars and have the convenience of staying in the room we picked. Might be worth the call for you too. Good luck!
