    What time do shore excursions start?

    We just did Tortola and St Thomas on the fantasy. Our excursions started at 7:45 both days. Super early. But we made it to the Baths before other ships. When you book excursions, it will tell you the start times.

    Has Wal-Mart ever managed your order like this?

    Walmart now has delivery vans in my neighborhood. Metro atlanta. Seems they are trying to get some business from Amazon. I would treat the Walmart delivery person like an Amazon delivery person. Tip not required.

    My cruise dropped 2k

    We have found that opening day prices can still be more than a good GTY rate. We are platinum and have stopped booking opening day and just now use VGT rates for most cruises. We can book last minute and are ok with all the best excursions and activities being unavailable for us. They were...

    My cruise dropped 2k

    Happened on our January cruise. I paid $5000 each for 2 verandah cabins. The cruise went VGT for around $3300 per cabin. It just happens sometimes.

    Last Minute onboard charge

    This happens to us every cruise and they just run a separate charge for the last minute purchases. Surprised they didn’t handle your charge that way - sounds like something unusual happened. Bet it will be handled the normal way next time. We were disembarking the fantasy last year when the...

    looking for post office help

    We have a new regional post office in south atlanta - and it has caused a disaster. Packages sit there for literally weeks without moving. I had one stay there for over a week before it suddenly started to move again. Your package may finally show up once it makes it out of atlanta. As far as...

    Why are new homes built mostly McMansions when people want smaller?

    We are in metro atlanta. My younger son is looking for a townhouse. He is looking in the 500K range and the good ones sell as soon as they hit the market. They are building new builds like crazy around us. There are some price reductions on less desirable homes, but the market still seems ok here.

    What is the latest you can remain onboard on disembarkation day?

    When we did a B2B, by 9:30, they were calling families by name and telling them to leave the ship!

    Possible Visa rewards not expiring?

    I have done pay yourself back a couple times. In the app, the expenses that qualify for pay yourself back were listed. I just picked the one I wanted to use and my rewards dollars were applied. Super easy. As soon as you book your Disney hotel, use the pay yourself back option to use some rewards.

    Have you ever bought a product that later got recalled by the product maker?

    Was just at Costco returning an item. While waiting in line, I glanced at the recall items posted on the wall. I literally had purchased all of them. Lots were food items that were long eaten. So far, so good!

    Coast Guard evacuates woman

    I have also been on the fantasy when we had to make an emergency stop to drop off a pregnant woman. Being dropped off in a random Caribbean country for medical care for your pregnancy seems very risky. Would give me pause before deciding to sail while pregnant.

    Would you go on a game show?

    Does a Food network challenge count as a game show? If so, I have been the assistant on one. It did air on the food network years ago.

    Zero Enforcement of Dress Code @ Palo

    We have noticed this too. We have stopped dressing up for palo now. No jacket and tie for DH or really nice dress for me now. This does have an upside -less clothes to pack!

    Placeholder logistics

    We sailed 11/4 last year and had no decorations on the ship. Week before was Halloween. Week after was Christmas. November might work for you to sail with the ship not decorated.

    The Bridge On SiriusXM

    We listen to the bridge. It is my next preset when yacht rock is playing a song I hate!

    Port Canaveral Boarding Group Documentation

    When you do online checkin, you will get the PAT documentation from DCL. We just add it to our Apple wallets and show that at the terminal. Lots of people still had paper copies on our last few cruises.

    Online Check-in: Can I still by-pass Passport and Flight info and update later?

    You will have to enter your passport info (or other identification) before moving onto the next step. I keep a folder on my phone with all our passport photos and selfies in there. Very easy to add during online checkin. I also keep a list of passport numbers and expirations - makes it easier to...
