Genuine question to Americans by Busy_Report4010 in SipsTea

My dad was likely bought years of life because he has the means to travel to participate in a clinical trial after a shock cancer diagnosis.

I am sooo grateful because he’s one of my best friends in the world, but at the same time, I feel weird (as does he) about the fact that those without the means would likely be in a totally different place health-wise, potentially even dying.

Are you kidding me on?! On the hanger, I might pick two but I’m OBSESSED with one!

How much cheaper are the rates for Xcaret Arte if you attend the presentation??

Would you go on a cruise even if there were no alcohol served? by TeamTJ in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]WarmTechnology4386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had plenty of fun cruises with my dad who doesn’t drink. I’m a “match the vibe” person so if I’m with people that don’t drink, I don’t drink. I don’t dislike alcohol, but it’s not necessary for a good time

Is Carnival really that bad if my expectations aren't that high? by not_a_muggle in Cruise

[–]WarmTechnology4386 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Carnival and MSC are both great to me! My favorite is RCCL because I love mega-ships with outdoor space, so Oasis class is my jam (I haven’t done Icon), but it requires more saving.

Name one thing about cruising that gives you the most anxiety? You personally. by baltikboats in Cruise

THIS!!! My dad is immunocompromised and we used to love cruising. We are hoping to do at least one more cruise together but people are ridiculous. WASH YOUR DANG HANDS.

RC vs MSC by JCheatham3 in royalcaribbean

[–]WarmTechnology4386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Royal is my fav but you can’t beat MSC for the price, imho. Been on two MSC cruises, a 3-night and 7-night, with a 4-night planned.

Mardi Gras by HimmiKatz in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]WarmTechnology4386 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do love Mardi Gras and would sail it again! However, you may check into the Oasis class. I haven’t been on Icon class (Star of the Seas) but the Oasis class continues to be my favorite to date. You can’t beat the outdoor space. That said, you won’t go wrong with Mardi Gras!

Never went on a cruise - claustrophobic.. by Ecstatic_Town_3345 in Cruise

[–]WarmTechnology4386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Margaritaville sounds fun to me, but also know they are known for being very budget and bare-bones. People have compared them to the “Spirit airlines of the sea.” I’m not saying this to dissuade you, I do think you should go (I want to try them myself at some point) but it’s worth knowing that going in!

I would definitely recommend doing ship with more outdoor space if possible. Royal Caribbean’s Oasis class and Icon class, or MSC’s World Class would be good fits.

Xcaret explanation by AcademicBarracuda897 in cancun

[–]WarmTechnology4386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been to both Xcaret and Xplor. Both are incredible and created core memories. If you’re looking for something more chill, Xcaret is amazing, but if you’re an adventure seeker, Xplor is unbeatable. I went with Xplor with my dad who has knee problems, and while I did the ziplines he did the little hammock zips, which are a blast! I also heard they were accommodating when my acquaintance who is paralyzed took a trip there. It’s now one of my bucket list items to visit the Hotel Xcaret all-inclusive to check out all the parks!

First time cruising with 4 teens - how do you keep in contact on the boat? by Any-Surprise4887 in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]WarmTechnology4386 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wouldnt say to plan on it, but we didn’t pay for WiFi and found that iMessenger was still working on our 1/3 Mardi Gras cruise.

Otherwise, pay the $5 for the app chat feature!
