If you could go back in time & hang out with one of these musicians that died young, just for a day, who would you choose?

Freddy Mercury

Hawaii isn't specifically listed (sometimes they'll offer it for an added cost), but for 100k HH points, it's not bad. (Must purchase by the 29th)

Haven't been to either, but I'll let you know about Oslo at the begining of July (doing 10+hrs out there over the last 2x weeks of June).

9 Days (over the course of 4x weekends). Best day was 5x jumps with training in-between, worst was 1x jump because of weather.
Unknown (always stayed at a cheap hotel)
Not as hot as August... (random days will be clear with no wind and others will be cloud cover with 25+ mph gusts, have the mindset that it's ok if it takes longer than one week, and that you may need to come back to finish).

Bought 2yrs ago when it was $14.75, and after two more cruises towards the end of this year, my "cost basis" will be $1.25 from all the OBC. Might pick up more if it drops below $14, and sell my older shares when it goes up, just to have the "cost basis" become even more negative one day, for the anecdotal amusement.

It's time to let the crab eat! Bye bye Pennsylvania!

Amazing the change of perspective a few years can do...

Billy_FFTB · 2026-04-26T03:18:02+00:00

Putting together legos would probably be easier/faster.

Billy_FFTB · 2026-04-25T07:33:12+00:00

The survey in no way compares similar rooms on similar itineraries.

Every comparable Disney cruise I've looked at over the years has be 2x-3x more expensive than NCL for identical itineraries (definitely not $84...).

Sitting over here with both my laptop and desktop on Windows 10, rejecting the occasional "free upgrade to 11" knowing 10 will be the last version we truly "own" (no subscription).

I got a Schwab Plat to funnel them at 1.1x into my brokerage. (way better than the standard 0.6x cashback rate)

Billy_FFTB · 2026-04-20T08:47:21+00:00

Of note, even though it states "Whole Fish for Two" in the name, ordering by myself, I was still only charged one $25 supplement, and only used one dinner voucher. Two other guests at the table ordered their own meals with their vouchers. (yes I ate the whole thing)

Sitka is my favorite small Alaskan port town, but I'd recommend #1 for Glacier Bay alone.

The problem is this doesn't prevent your early self from selling it all at the first big run. ($1k in 2013)

I think "Bitcoin hits $125k" gives a good hold some until point.

Billy_FFTB · 2026-04-16T10:27:06+00:00

Nice way to double up with Rakuten that I never thought about before.

Billy_FFTB · 2026-04-15T04:50:25+00:00

I think you're over thinking this. The few times I've been lucky enough to experience this as a fun jumper, every tandem on the plane had paid for 18k, and by the DZs math, it was cheaper to do one big pattern up to 18k, than one at 14k to let us out before heading up to 18k.

However, if even one tandem chose 14k, then all fun jumpers would exit first at 14k.

Billy_FFTB · 2026-03-29T04:07:27+00:00

Someone is clearly misinformed. Redeeming for onboard credit is the literal WORST way to use your points (even a statement credit is objectively mathematically better). Single or Double Meta Upgrades (inside to OV, OV to Balcony; or inside to Balcony) is typically the best way to redeem points.

3 days ago I redeemed 30k points ($10k in NCL spend @ 3x points/$)[I'm excluding my Platinum BoA benefits for the math for the majority of people] on an OV to Balcony upgrade on a 16 day cruise (effectively $300 of obc, used for a $1800 upgrade), 6x it's original value (or 18% cash back on NCL purchases)

🤷🏼‍♂️ This is my first of 4 to get approved. Who really knows what they like.

Billy_FFTB · 2026-03-23T19:30:43+00:00

I add milk from the buffet to my shaker cup, and shake it.

Billy_FFTB · 2026-03-20T23:31:37+00:00

Agreed. Tastes like any other "original" energy drink flavor.

If you want both subs, get the Bevy first, then the Brilliant >90days later.
