So far, our favorite cruise destination is the ship. Don't care that much where it goes. If we're not interested in the port, we are happy to stay on the ship.
Just saying, it's "Castaway Club", not "Castaway Cay Club". I get that there's confusion due to the similar names between the club and the island, but just FYI

You're actually a member of the Castaway Club the moment you complete your first cruise--that's when you become Silver level.I realized that later after I wrote it. I did just become eligible by virtue of purchasing a $250 voucher. I am still a member of the First Timers Club.

Thanks for the clarification - the literature mentioned the $250 voucher plus the $200 stateroom credit - thought the club was dependent on that!
Our favorite was the 8 night Marvel Day at Sea out of New York City for Thanksgiving 2017
It is. And the $200 (or $100) onboard stateroom credit is not offered any longer, just the 10% discount for non-Concierge cabins outside of black-out dates.
The On Board Credit went away for all new place holder booking as of 9/28 (Fantasy) and 9/30 for all other ships. If you already purchased it, you are fine. Just know the next cruise you take if you purchase a place holder it will only give you 10% off, no more on board credit.Hmmm -- my TA tells me that I am grandfathered in - since they mailed that offer to me & I have it in writing.......
What did you not enjoy about Mexican Riviera?Most enjoyable: Very Merrytime Eastern
Least enjoyable: Mexican Riviera
The one that makes me happiest is the western caribbean 7 day cruise! I LOVE Grand Cayman for the stingray city excursion! Standing in waist deep water with stingrays all around me sliding their velvety soft wings along my sides as they try to get the fish in my hands are my favorite thing in any cruise. It's just magical! The guides help you to hold one in your arms while you are there and take a picture of you with your own camera so you have a memento, which is a wonderful bonus... then I love Cozumel too. I love to snorkel there on an excursion, can't remember which one, but the fish are so numerous when you feed them tortillas that you can't see your hands in front of your face! Cozumel is one of the best places in the world to snorkel! Again, it's just magical! I also found a little shop a block behind the main shopping street that faces the ship dock, where I buy my vanilla. It's really strong white vanilla and i get it for just $9 for a whole liter of double strength vanilla. It lasts me a couple of years. That's how I know I need to go back to Cozumel...lol.What has been your favorite itinerary?
Which one do you think is the best value for the money?
Or forget money - which one brings you most joy?
