I dunno- seems like a simple enough request- but all these complaints about waiting on drinks made me think maybe there was a reason people didn't just carry them in. We have a large family, so we usually get slow service, so I often get drinks from the bar at restaurants (even if it is just...

I've never cruised before with DCL, so I have a question. If I ordered a drink from one of the lounges, would I be permitted to take it into dinner with me? Thanks!

No, give them a kit so they can send postcards to themselves....who cares if it takes months? That's part of the point. After vacation, these awesome reminders come in the mail.

Postcards!! I love that idea! How neat would it be to get some postcard sets for people to drop off in port? I mail myself postcards all the time when I travel of stuff I saw or special memories. I keep them in my photo album.

Me too, MNTwin! I've got my trip binder started in OneNote. I've been looking at hotel and AirBnB pricing in vancouver. There are a lot of hotels starting to show the Sunday night before departure as booked. I hate to book too far in advance, because I'm not sure on my travel yet, but at the...

Thank you! This makes me feel a lot better!

I dig your ears! I went for a super quick trip last November, and I agree- it is amazing how much you can fit in!

Is it common for adults to participate? I kind of like the 'random acts of pixie dust' idea!

That's exactly what I was wondering! It just seemed like one of those things that people would easily exploit, and the policy is already so very generous. It has been a long time since I've been on a cruise- I have so many questions about the procedures in general. Travelling solo makes me a...

Oh my gosh, I totally agree. You should always feel empowered to stop the massage if you're in pain, too, and don't worry about losing your money. No reputable business is going to punish a customer for stopping a massage that hurt them. You know your body better than a therapist does- if you...

What is the check-in process for ports? Do they mark your bag or your stateroom key in some way so they know you've already brought your allotted amount for the stop? I'm specifically thinking for the tourist stops, not the initial departure.

Thank you so much for this! Reading room reviews actually swayed my booking decision! I can't wait to update with my own thoughts and photos.

How does the Dream spa compare to the Fantasy or Wonder? It doesn't look like it has very much to recommend it...just open sensory showers?

My camera is my shield for the (very rare) uncomfortable situation. I just tell people I'm practicing my dark photography, which is boring for some folks. More often, though, either no one knows I'm solo or no one cares. I think a lot of it is based in your own attitude and body language! Act...

Hi! I'm putting my deposit in tomorrow- I'll be a first-time DCLer, solo traveler.
