  1. I can see your point of view, but I disagree in your interpretation. The passage you quoted is contained in an explaination of benefits given to Voyagers Club MEMBERS. If somebody isn't a member, they don't get any of the benefits. Seems simple to me and I think your reasoning is just wishful thinking...
  2. You must be the only person sailing!!! 😁 Seriously, just start a new topic and create a roll call for your cruise. With only 2 weeks to go, you might not get many posts, but it's worth a try
  3. With the verification part of the requirements coming after the word "and" in the passage you quoted above, I read that as a seperate item NOT related to the "no later than noon" portion. If they wanted the noon requirement to apply to the call AND the verification, they should have put the noon specification at the very end. I think the OP is in compliance with what the T&C require... mu .02
  4. ...have you considered back robbery?? 😄
  5. Not sure if you can do that directly. However, you can add that OBC to a casino machine and then close it out to get cold, hard cash to use for tips or just fatten your wallet!
  6. Talk about thread creep - what started out as MSC sailing out of LA has evolved to the for now scrapped plans for a new cruise terminal in Seattle. Not that I mind...it's good to keep up on developments in the cruising world!
  7. Might just be me, but I doubt there's much call for Alaska cruises in February...brrrrrr!
  8. I only saw it from Oct/25 through Dec/25 with 7 day cruises so maybe Mexico or west coast cruises? Could find nothing for any of those timeframes on MSC's website or any other site. It'd be nice to see some departures on the other side of the country for a change.
  9. While the DL & BC may be OK for the closed loop cruise itself, just keep in mind that, without a current PP, you could run into problems if that person has to fly back to the US for some reason (illness, injury or cruise interruption).
  10. I agree. I don't THINK there is a restriction on bringing flowers onto the ship, but there are prohibitions against taking them OFF the ship. Once on board, they have to stay on board and must be disposed off by the cruiseline according to proper protocols to avoid possible infestations/contaminations to floral & fauna at following ports.
  11. I hadn't seen that, but in my explorations of Seascape, both on the deck plans and onboard, I didn't see any such thing...
  12. No tennis court. If you check the MSC website, they have deck plans for all the ships and you can explore as you desire
  13. Cat Woman or just your plain ol' Dominatrix?? Inquiring minds want to know...
  14. Manned flight safety standards are indeed more stringent, but that probably doesn't apply to the exclusion zone for personnel safety. That's to protect those on the ground & sea from spacecraft debris, not the astronauts themselves inside the spacecraft, so it sould be the same restricted area for manned or unmanned flights...
  15. Nice review, but from its title I was wondering when Seashore started sailing from New York! 😲 Now I get that it was New Years...
  16. Looking forward to OC or watching interlopers get tossed? 😁
  17. 200 groundings in one year 😲 sounds like they need better container ship captains!!
  18. I've read that YC butler service CAN be a bit slow/lacking if your cabin is outside the enclave, Just something to consider....
  19. The I95 is US CBP Crewman's Landing Permit https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/assets/documents/2022-Mar/CBP Form I-95.pdf Enjoying your review of Explora, just as I have all your other Poop Deck reviews
  20. i understand your concept of the passenger per crew metric, but I think your last sentence above is expressed backwards. For "better" service I'd rather have 5 crew per pax than 2 crew per pax OR 2 pax per crew instead of 5 pax per crew...
  21. Glad it worked out so positively for you!
  22. If I remember correctly: Find a slot machine and use your cruise card to "put money onto the machine" Play a few pulls then select the "cash out" option Take the ticket to the casino cashier and get the remaining amount in cash I've only done it on Caribbean cruises so the cash is in USD, not sure what type of cash you'd get from the casino on cruises in other locales that use other onboard currencies...
