If I have to go to Miami I will sail on Oceania.

I'm also at the point in my life where I've been everywhere I want to cruise to and now pretty much go for the ship. Having said that, I can't ever imagine being on a mega ship with 5,000+ pax and crew. To me, that's not my cup of tea. Oceania and Regent have docked in Canaveral, so anything is possible I think. And they're in the process of extending the port, too.

I would much rather fly into Orlando than Miami!!! And customs is easier for those coming from other countries.

I'm being selfish. Canaveral is only 1 1/2 hours from me, but I hate the ships that that berthed there.

Bring them to Port Canaveral!!!!!!!

The cold soups. I miss those

I'm interested in this, but since it says "strenuous", I have some questions. Is it just a lot of walking? I have a rollator and have no problem walking, but if it's uneven pavement or many stairs, I can't do this. If anyone has been on this, I would appreciate any help and advice. Thanks in advance.

I agree, but the Zaandam doesn't have them as far as I can tell.

Can anyone tell me if the tub is high or not? I'm not happy with getting in and out of a tub and any information you could pass on would be very helpful. This was never a problem until a few years ago when my age started advancing, if you know what I mean. Thanks in advance!!

Maybe they're from Florida with early bird coupons? LOL

I am a solo traveler and only do open seating at a large table. I love meeting new people.

Every hour there's commercials about auto accidents, but this was the first I saw that was blatent about falling in a store and even went so far as to say the floor might be wet or such.

This reminds me of a local commercial on TV a year or so ago: If you have a fall, give us a call.

Thanks!!!

Thank you!! I appreciate this.

Is anyone on board posting about this trip? I'd love to follow it.

Does the Riverside offer shuttle service to the port? Also, is there bell service for luggage?

Thank you!!!

Does HAL have a solo get together early in the cruise so we can meet fellow solo travelers?

I live in casual clothes every day so when I cruise, I wear my finery -- not necessarily sequins, but definitely dress-up clothes. Example:

I had it on the Constellation in March, but it was GREEN. Not sure what happened.

There is another hog that we encountered on Oceania. (So it doesn't matter the cost of the cruise -- it's the "people" who cruise). We were having breakfast on the outdoor cafe when this insufferable person leaves his table to park himself close to ours so he won't disturb his other insufferables while he's on his cell phone. And why do people who use cell phones think that everyone wants to hear their conversations? We were younger than we are now, so we kept quiet. Now, today, this feisty old lady would have said something.
