Words to live by, for sure.

Even when I don't need a sweater or a jacket, I bring one to the buffet with me and drape it over the back of my chair. I also bring my refillable water bottle and leave it at the table when I get up for food. (Which serves a dual purpose, since I'm going to want to refill it while I'm at the buffet.) I've never had anyone take my table while I was gone.

I second the thanks, John. You are a wealth of knowledge. Thank you!

All great ideas. Thank you, John!

Thank you, John. Yes, from Southampton. Based on my flight options, I think I was being overly optimistic about being able to fly home the same day (either too early departure, or not enough connection time back in the US to make my next flight or waaaay too much connection time). So I think my best bet is to stay another night after the cruise at or near Heathrow and fly home the next day. Thank you again. Gray

Please forgive me if this has been asked before, but I've done a search and also scrolled through 7 pages of posts on this board and I haven't found the answer. If my cruise (NCL British Isles on Dawn) docks at 5am on a Wednesday, what is the earliest time I should book a return flight out of Heathrow, same day, to the U.S.? Is 12:20 too early? I do not have Global Entry. Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer, Gray
