Do you know if they offer any beer specials like buy 5 get 6 or a percentage off if you buy 6 or something like that? I guess that the beer bag is no more?

Thank you!

Enjoy the balcony! :)

Good to hear positive feedback! Glad you got your key back!

You can get luggage tags from the porters at the pier, and just put your room information on them.

This happened to my sister also. She was listed first on the reservation, and she is Diamond. Her roommate is Platinum, and all the luggage tags listed Platinum. I told her it was probably so the other person doesn't think they are Diamond, and expect the perks. Her Diamond perks were in the room, upon arrival.

We only got one block, even though we both had 140 points.

I would book now, to get a good room selection, then call who ever you booked through, if you notice the price dropped, before final payment was due, to get the better price.

We had to call when we got home, after hitting the 140, because I didn't think about getting a gift, until I was looking at the list of perks. They sent the glass block right out to us.

We have the Beatlemaniacs this cruise!!!!!!! :) :) :) :)

Lucky you! :D

The pictures are beautiful, of the beach and water! It looked like a really nice excursion!

Also, after looking at your pictures of the room in the park at night, makes me think it would be a really nice place to stay. I wish it also had an ocean view too!

I am really enjoying your review, the humor! My sister is going on the Allure this Sunday, and I am getting excited for her, especially with all of the pictures that you posted!

When you mentioned the Rainbow Reef tour, I thought, "maybe we will try this in March, when we go to Nassau on the Anthem". But then after reading about the cold water, and seeing that one picture of the boat in the high waves, I think not. I guess I'll wait and see if it is warmer and calmer, when our trip is closer.

Thanks for taking the time to do the review! I love reading them all!

Usually it is closer to 120 to 90 days out, that you can reserve everything.

Do you know where and when, the Top Tier event is?

Thanks for volunteering to answer questions, and for the above information.

Thanks Clarea, can you get free drinks at any other time of day?

Yes, at least free tap water, lemonade, coffee, tea, and iced tea, are available at many places around the ship.

There would be plenty of seats by the pool, if no one "reserved" them, but just sat in them when they were ready to use them. I don't think most people plan to spend the entire day, in one seat.

It is really strange that the original posters "Chair hogs" found other seats near by, but were still mad that their original seats were now occupied. Were they just looking for trouble?

I think they were referring to taking a bagel from the Comfort Suites Hotel Breakfast buffet.

We usually walk to Junkanoo Beach, since we have done all the sites before.

Hello!Happy New Year!

I keep reading this forum but I still need some additional clarification...thank you in advance!:)

We will sailing out of Port Liberty, Sunday, 3 pm, March 26th. We will arrive 5 days before to NYC and will stay near Penn Station/33rd st. We will return home at the end of the cruise (April 2nd) ; our flight will be at 8:20 p.m.

 

1- We pretend to use the public transportation on Sunday to Port Liberty so we are thinking about PATH 33 rd street to Hoboken and then we have two options:Hudson-Bergen Light Rail (to Bayonne) and then call a cab or get a cab from Hoboken

 

Our question is:we are afraid that regarding to language issues (spoken English) we will not be able to call a Cab when we arrive to Bayonne and give the correct directions.We were thinking about get a cab from Hoboken, but we don't know if there will be cabs outside the Station on a Sunday morning...What are your toughs?:confused:

 

2- We will carry with us 2 big bags and two small trolleys, all with wheels; we are in good shape and there are elevators in all the stations. Do you see any issues regarding to luggage?

 

3- Ship departs at 3 p.m., Sunday; Is 11 a.m., soon enough to leave from NYC by public transportation? Should we leave earlier? If we change our minds and use a driver like dial7, how soon should we leave NYC?

 

4 - Because we have a late flight after our cruise and will arrive to Bayonne around 6 a.m., we booked an hotel to drop our luggage during the day (there are no place to drop the luggage at Newark Airport) and we will go to Jersey Mall that only open at 11 a.m.. How long is the process of leaving the ship and ship area, being an European citizen? Is it similar to the process to enter USA by plain? Are there cabs outside the port or do we have to call a cab?

 

Thank you very much for your help!

I am sorry that I don't have the answers for you, to all of your questions, but maybe you could ask some of your questions on an Anthem Roll call that will be leaving soon, like January 14th's roll call. When they return, they can probably tell you how customs goes, and if there are cabs at the port.

You can just change it back to my time dining, if you are talking about "Your preferences" under the C and A section of the website.

Just noticed that you are sailing in 5 days, so you must be talking about your reserved time for this trip. You should be able to change it without any problem by calling who ever you booked through.

So are you assigned to a different one each night in traditional and in dynamic you go to whatever one whenever?

There isn't any Dynamic Dining anymore. They stopped that recently. But yes, when they had it, you went to whatever dining room, that you wanted to eat at, or made reservations for.

You reserve shows in advance.

Dining, there are 4 smaller dining rooms, used for traditional dining, and anytime dining. You will be assigned to one of them, depending on what you signed up for, and if it was anytime dining, with reservations or not. You can also sign up for specialty dining, for a charge.

Don't buy a drink package. Like Bob said, the drinks are included for free, that you are interested in drinking. You can't get bottled water for free, but the water out of the tap, is perfectly drinkable. They will have cups at the drink areas in the buffet or other places like Park Café, where you can help yourself.

We've been to Labadee a few times, headed back in March. I don't remember the water slide looking too great, don't remember the coaster at all. Does anyone have any feedback? Are they any good - and what ages would they be good for? More for kids than adults?

I rode the coaster, and i thought it was pretty good. It is for both adults and kids. The cars are for two people, and the person In the back has to be a certain height, to operate the brakes.

La Quinta in Glen Bernie offers that service, and always works well.

Using it on the second night you would use your coupon for you dinner companions meal.

Thank you!
