fligster Posted April 21, 2019 #1 Share Posted April 21, 2019 HI, I will be providing daily updates, as well as creating a daily VLOG (probably uploading the vlog every few days. Subscribe to our YouTube channel to be notified). I will try to answer any Harmony questions that I can. PRE CRUISE TRAVEL DAY (Sat 4/20) We had an afternoon flight at 3:25 out of PHL. The airport was empty when we arrived, breezed through check in and TSA precheck. We hung out at the Centurion Lounge and then boarded our flight. The flight was uneventful and we landed about 15 minutes late. I was relieved because of all the storms and cancellations on Friday. We took the airport shuttle to the Hampton Inn Airport/Cruise port north. We stayed here based on the reviews and it was 50K Hhonors points. Hotel was ok, bed wasn’t too comfortable, I think I would go with the Embassy Suites on 17th street next time. We ate at a pizza place across the street. It was ok, but on the expensive side. $18 for a large cheese pizza, we are used to paying around $12 in South Jersey. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare bobmacliberty Posted April 21, 2019 #3 Share Posted April 21, 2019 We've used the Embassy Suites on 17th for our last couple of cruises. Probably won't do it again. It was a zoo. Service and quality seem to have gone downhill for the price. If you're getting a free night with HHonors points though, it's a good location.

fligster Posted April 21, 2019 Author #4 Share Posted April 21, 2019 The Hampton lobby /breakfast area was great at 6:00 am, later in the morning it was a Zoo as well. They have a shuttle to the port, believe they told someone $10 pp. We will do uber as it will be cheaper and don't want to deal with shuttles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted April 21, 2019 #19 Share Posted April 21, 2019 (edited) Fligster, judging by the view I’d guess you are in 1726? Edited April 21, 2019 by A&L_Ont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that the plugs are labeled differently (i.e. Smart vs iPhone vs Android). I'd be willing to bet that they're all identical...all 5V and all the same amperage.
