    WOW! Le Petit Chef Dining Experience on Celebrity!!

    I just completed my first Celebrity Cruise on the Apex a few weeks ago and I'm truly impressed. The ship, staff, service and the food in the MDR was the best on any cruise line I've sailed on. The specialty restaurant's food was also delicious including Le Petite Chef which had a set menu. I...

    Have you stayed at Aulani, alone?

    I say do it! Life is too short to not go out and explore. As a DVC member I’ve stayed at nearly all the DVC resorts alone including Aulani. I had visited the Hawaiian Islands numerous times so when I stayed at Aulani I knew what I wanted to do. My first stop was the Costco just down the...

    How long before check in can you arrive at the terminal (Port Canaveral)?

    I too arrived at my check-in time which was noon and after checking my luggage there was no waiting to go through the check in process and board the ship. I suggest you arrive at your scheduled time to avoid having to wait. Trust me the new process works perfectly.

    Travel insurance with Covid 19 coverage

    I investigated insurance options since I have four upcoming cruises within the next year. I received a quote from my travel agent and even looked on line but then I looked at annual travel insurance and it was nearly the same cost as insurance for one of my cruises. I decided to purchase...

    Marvel Restaurant on the Wish

    I’m keeping an open mind about the new Marvel Restaurant although a little disappointed that Animators is no longer a dining option.

    Ashamed to go to Disney without kids

    I’m single, no children and a solo traveler and never felt bad about visiting Disneyland and WDW. I did have those feelings before i went on my first Disney Cruise but those feelings went away after experiencing the dedicated adult areas on the ship. I’ve really enjoy cruising with Disney and...

    Will guest experience suffer on the first sailings?

    I have some concerns about the cruise experience suffering with my upcoming DCL cruise but I knew this before I booked. I had hoped that that there would have been a dozen or more cruises before my cruise sailed but with the last batch of cancellations they are only two or three cruises before...

    NCL (newer ships) vs. DCL with older teens/YA?

    I was on a 12-day cruise on the NCL Breakaway out of New Orleans several years ago and I had a wonderful time and the ship is very nice. The outdoor waterfront is an interesting concept and I wish other cruise ship would do something similar. The outdoor sports complex was just okay and once I...

    Staying on ship on Castaway Cay day

    The last time on CC my friend and I ran the 5K and returned to the ship for the rest of the day. My friend wasn’t interested in any activities on CC and I’ve been on CC multiple times so I was okay with returning back to the ship. The ship had considerably less people and we enjoyed riding the...

    Once Upon A Disney Wish Live Updates

    In the past DCL maiden voyages they had special restrictions regarding changes/additions, etc., and I have a suspicion that they will not allow passengers to use canceled cruise credits for a maiden voyage cruise. I hope I'm wrong so good luck.

    When is Your Next Royal Cruise?

    So my Thanksgiving 2020 Liberty cruise was canceled a few weeks ago but I moved it to Thanksgiving 2021 on the Harmony which is a bigger ship and I like the ports better than my previous booking. I also have a Celebrity Apex cruise booked for February 2021 and I just made final payment...

    Am I the only one who saves most of the paper work from a Disney Cruise?

    I keep a lot of the same documents you mention. Sometimes I need to refer back to my past cruises to determine dates, destinations and my stateroom for planning future cruise bookings. I also have what I consider unique items in my collection such as those Mickey gloves on a stick, the daily...

    Waiting for a cancelation....

    Sadly my November RCCL cruise was canceled through no fault on my part. I called my travel agent and decided to move my canceled cruise to November 2021 and lucky I was able to move it to a larger Oasis Class Ship and better itinerary.
