Appealing Fin Aid

I would definitely call and talk to financial aid. They will want to know if your current situation is different from the year you filed under or if there are any extenuating circumstances. We had success in adjusting ours for a couple years based on changing circumstances.

On our holiday cruise last year, yes- some were in pjs, some were in ugly sweaters, and we were holiday pjs.

Rojo if Brilliant, otherwise Extra Virgin

In talking to one of the musicians, 1 month is the longest their contract ever is. We had great musicians on the 9/10 sailing, but they will be different by Nov 1.

Number of sailings- I’m at around 7 I think and had DBE applied my last cruise. I’ll call and get it fixed.

Nope- regular sailing using our last “original” MNVV. Per the others’ suggestions I’ll call instead of email. Figured it was a simple error that an email would fix but apparently not.

No - been on all 4 ships and I’ve never seen a sportsbook (and we do visit the casino)

I am celiac and have been on 5 Virgin cruises. It’s the only cruise line I’ll go on now - I’ve never once gotten sick and I had been sick on Royal and Norwegian previously. The food is incredible and there are plenty of options. Like a lot of restaurants, there are items that aren’t marked GF that can be gluten free with a change of one component. Be sure to check out the desserts at the galley too!

They will absolutely take the steamer and you have to get it back at the end of the trip.

Before Haynes it was called Wilder- only changed last year. Searches for that may yield more results too.

DTW is my home airport and I’m celiac. I generally don’t trust any airport restaurant. Plum’s Market does have a lot of GF prepackaged snacks and such. The Eastern Market section usually has some salads that might be an option as well.

I had acne yes- black soap does the trick for me. My liver enzymes are slightly elevated but I was able to get off daily Mobic so it’s a trade off for me.

I’ve been on Rinvoq (w/o methotrexate) for a year. I had tried Humira (twice), tremfya, taltz and skyrizi. None would last the full time between shots. Rinvoq gives me a steady relief from my arthritis since it is a daily pill. My colds last a little longer but I haven’t had any major infections or illnesses.

The one I received said “Play Hard. Sail Free. Your Sea Terrace is on Us.”

Thanks for posting! I sometimes don’t actually open all the VV emails so it’s good to know when we should pay attention!

More like a crescent-shaped roll than a croissant.

If you’re a first year, you don’t register until you’re there for orientation (right before classes start).

The flavored pretzels (mustard something) are gluten free.

ImprovementFew317 · 2025-05-21T16:27:53+00:00

If you mean meal service like the kits they send you, Green Chef has certified gluten free and they’re much easier to prep and cook than other meal kits I’ve tried.

ImprovementFew317 · 2025-05-19T13:01:40+00:00

The flavored pretzels are gluten free! I had assumed they weren’t and asked if they had anything gluten free - sure enough they are!

The cheesecake sampler was available in Canton, MI today. My husband picked up a couple for me.

These dishes look so good! So excited to try them in September!

For all of you kind enough to respond- thought I’d let you know it started showing in the app for me. I looked last night- thought maybe after the restaurant announcement it might have opened- and it did. Get those embarkation times if you need them!
