The new ships have a Turbo button ❄️

Can you buy buckets with Cheers?
Not on the package obviously...

Here is the water available in the planner for pre-purchase. Used to be like $5 for the 12 pack, I'll be picking them up at the bars.

Same situation for our cruise 7/6. Going to the dining room as soon as we board.

Onion soup, lobster bisque, Ribeye. Typically can't do dessert!
Though we have done the thing where they fling stuff everywhere and smash the chocolate ball. That's at least entertaining!

Did you find it? Are you still wandering around looking aimlessly for a porter?? I'm dying to know the outcome here

I wish I knew what getting off the boat without a debt was like!🤣

I like my PVP, he's helped me find the best deals and better rooms. Can't hurt to let them try

The worst of the party crowd is on the 2-4 day weekend cruises, which the Mardi Gras does not do.
Agreed, the booze cruises will be more likely to have a rowdier crowd. 6-8 days usually don't.

They certainly aren't as juicy as they were. Haven't been onboard since Nov. We'll see if they pick up after next month. Sail on 7/6...

Is there anywhere I can see a menu of what is served at this Midnight buffet/snack/inedibles?
Think of a menu for 4-8 year olds.
"Chicken" bits
Sandwiches
cookies
Makes ok drunk food.I found myself ordering room service. Charge me the $8 please.

Prices are set by Port of Miami, not RCCL.
That's their current day rate regardless of length of cruise.
Unfortunately there are few nearby offsite parking lots with decent reputation.
Every off site place I looked at has lots of busted car windows in the reviews.

Sounds like you got the bulk of it. 2 days earlier check in, you'll have a priority line and potentially lounge depending on the port. Your family that is travelling with you should be able to board with you, not 100% on that though. I'm sure someone else here will fill that in!

We always buy the drink package, regardless of casino offer etc..we never get the Elite offer which includes drinks on us everywhere.
You can always ask the host to comp a bottle or specialty dining. Have also gotten gratis trips to cherry on top, etc.

Food...jewelry, hostage for ransom...
Plenty of info on cruise sites to plan accordingly. Few boats with automatic weapons could take hostages, loot the ship, including the casino. Would be a nightmare. Highly unlikely but, people claiming it can't be done are naïve to how the real world works.

Many people cruise and never leave the ship in port. They might as well be on a CTN. Might as well just go to an all inclusive.
I agree with this to an extent but, we were just on an itinerary we've done a ton of times and elected to not get off the ship. It was basically an all inclusive (outside of CHEERS! and specialty dining) on a boat. Had balconies at all inclusives and while normally larger, it just doesn't hit the same as a balcony on a cruise to me.

Thanks for the Live Sid, if it's your last we'll be sad but glad to have lived it with you. Looking forward to those books!

My best sailaway is which ever one I happen to be on at the time.
Agreed
But, Miami wins for me though only ever left from the three East Coast FL Ports. They're all unique. Miami has South Beach and the skyline, Canveral has the space stuff, and Jax has the bridge that limits the size of ships that can sail from there.
