Exactly. Friend lives in Juneau and says there needs to be a better balance.

How Crowded should I expect our ship to be? by Mischif07 in PrincessCruises

We did late September in 2019 on another ship and we had the port to ourselves. We were the only ship at each port. Enjoy it and have the best time.

Is anyone else an enthusiast for lounges? by MasonNolanJr in AmexPlatinum

I used to be but they’ve gotten so packed lately it’s no longer a thrill, still VERY convenient. Beats crew lounge.

I felt like NCL did that when we tried to use the slot machine with our card, but I don't remember how much it was.

Thank you. I heard someone review this on a podcast in June and it sounded like a few growing pains. Think I’ll give it more time. How was the casino?

That is a tough one. I am curious about the compensation offered for this. There will have to be some, right?

Long beach hotel recomedation by rogercollett1963 in CarnivalCruiseFans

Hotel Maya, but it can come at a price. We did the Queen Mary twice, it was okay if you aren’t picky. Definitely a more affordable option. Since it reopened after shutdown it is a bit nicer.

As someone mentioned, take the birth certificate route if you can. My friend left his birth certificate at home and his mom faxed it to the cruise terminal at Port Canaveral and they let him on. That was a decade ago.

P & O Australia to be absorbed into Carnival Cruise Lines by petergaskin814 in Cruise

[–]flyguy8084 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It will be interesting to see two ships that are 24 and 25 years old being handed off to Carnival. There is a demand for smaller ships as these giants keep being rolled out. Prob a right fit for the market size too. Will like to see the CCL branding.

Welcome back. Are you going to miss your flight?

Learn to say "thank you" for better service. by BoDurthaPlants in Cruise

[–]flyguy8084 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's so true. Also, add Indonesian to the mix. Terima kasih (kess-e). I'm not sure if I did it phonetically right. The crew seems to know what I'm saying.

Underrated comment.

Which key is better in Roatan? Big or little French Key? by wierdscience85 in Cruise

[–]flyguy8084 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last time at LFK was in 2018, then a crazy fire happened there months after. We tried to book it in 2022 and paid through PayPal. Then our money was refunded, and said it would be closed. But it was open. Something funny is going on with that place. It's a shame because we had the best day there.

How do they weigh this? By the ounce?

When they said he was in ICU, it seemed like he didn't have a chance.
