Saint Greg's Mardi Gras - LIVE - August 28th-September 4th 2021

[Saint Greg]

I think I left my mobile charger at home! At least I don’t have any long excursions planned. I sure would like a sun country USB port in here right about now.

Just pick one up at MCO.

The $85 is well worth it to those of us that fly in and out of Denver. The regular TSA lines can be pretty long here.

See I haven’t had any long security lines. I’ve had long bag check lines. But not security. Today’s precheck line was just as long as the regular line if not longer.

[Saint Greg]

I bought the $7  express security line on spirit once and it was a waste because there was no line.

nah I don’t trust all of them. The last time I just bought one before a cruise it screwed my battery up. Pocket juice is what it was.

[Saint Greg]

Really not much of a view here. Just clouds. We’re starting our final descent and it’s supposed to be bad weather in Orlando so maybe It’ll get more exciting.

Oh really 5 years? Now that could be a different story.  Most years I guess it’s going to be 1-3 times. But this year it’s going to be 6.

It is so worth it.  My company pays for mine and I pay for the wife's.  Makes traveling a little easier (gotta get it how you can).

[Saint Greg]

Still no results from CVS. Glad walmart worked out.

Well over 200 posts, and you have not even boarded the ship yet. This is going to be quite a long thread, but looking forward to the actual cruise report.

[Saint Greg]

Before the flight the flight attendant that told me I had the entire row said I could lay down and laughed. The guy in front of me took it literal. He spent most of the flight with his head in his wife’s lap with his feet up on the aisle seat. I’m sure they clean them but I just think about the bottom of those shoes being on the bathroom floor then being on the seat someone is going to sit in. Or maybe he took his shoes off. I didn’t look. Probably did.

My company reimburses me for it or I wouldn’t buy it. 

My husband and I bought it and recently renewed it.  To us, it's money well spent to be able to go through shorter lines, leave our shoes on, and to not have to remove liquids or computers.  It is especially valuable when the airports are crowded.  For people who only travel once every couple of years, I can see how it wouldn't be worth it.  We travel a lot, so it's definitely worth it to us.

Uber looks like $100 right now. That’s insane.

That's crazy high.  It seems like it wouldn't be so high in the middle of the day.

Try Lyft. They can be vastly different, and I have to switch back an forth all the time. They calculate surges differently I guess. One time Lyft will be cheaper, and the next time Uber. By a lot.

They brought us over the east coast due to weather.

when I first looked it was about the same but it’s $61 now. Hopefully that price holds.

Forgive the Newbies for they do not know the ways.

Before I got off the plane they had a team of six come on and start cleaning. Fourth airline this year . First I’ve seen that.

[Saint Greg]

I guess I have to take a train to the baggage claim? That’s weird

My son and I love that train -- it always means we're almost at WDW. 🥰
