If they could only tie the MagicBands inDon't be too surprised if they do start using a mobile app to unlock the room doors. That's already an option at the WDW resorts.

Yes, there are capacity limits - easiest to notice in the theater. Adult pool is usually crowded on sea days. Family pool and play areas not so much.Are they still limiting capacity for activities like trivia and bingo requiring folks to arrive early to wait in line?
Do you still have to wait in line to use the pools?
Are shows still being repeated so there is not new entertainment every evening?
Do you know if deck 2 is still being used for quarantine?
the way is shut.
Don't know why this sailing attracts this age group considering that 1 week of it is during spring break in the US/Canada.
Different cruise line, but our 11 day PC had only ten-fifteen kids under the age of 18. My kiddo was heartbroken that the only person her age didn't speak English. However, within a day they had worked out how to play together and were happy as clams at the kids club. The ratio of club attendants to kids was 3 to 1. Of the >18, there were at least 5 teens and a set of twins staying in the suite space with the private pool and we didn't see them except for the first day.The PC cruises usually have relatively few kids ā I think Iāve read reports sometimes of just 200 total. They donāt very often align with school break (ours ended last week and not another until late April) and 2 weeks is a long time to pull out of school or even a lot of vacation time for many US adults. So PC cruises in general skew to the older population.
Are you still under the "old" masking policy?- People sunbathing by the pool.... with masks on!! (granted, very few)
- People walking on deck 4.... with masks on! (also few, but my head almost dislodges from so much shaking)
If wearing a mask is to their comfort level, who cares?
Unfortunately it probably won't be on DCL, at least for a while. Everything is pointing to the WONDER staying on the West coast now that the WISH is in the fleet.This is another cruise on my "bucket list"!
Update on the variety acts - as that's what has helped make every day different.
Day 3 (Cozumel) - Charles Peachock
That's Charles - the juggling finalist from America's Got Talent. Some very cool stuff, including playing 'The Blinding Lights' by tossing tennis balls at the keyboard.

Day 4 (Day at Sea) - Lynn Trefzger
Lynn - the ventriloquist - was phenomenal on our January MDAS cruise, but she took it to an entirely new level this time by getting (masked) crew members to replace some of her puppets. IMO the most fun act on the cruise so far!

Day 5 (Day at Sea) - Art of Circus
Traditional circus acts themed after famed Renaissance artists. Some acts really good - others more of fillers. This was earlier today. Mind you, the ship had been rocking in rough waters on its way to Cartagena, which made for a few funny distractions during the acts.
Others
So, we had this 'Star Gazing' session earlier in the cruise. (Two more iterations to come.) No telescopes, but the first officer was at hand and walked us through the basics of navigation using the stars. They blacked out the sports deck which helped pop the night sky out.
The Panama Canal lectures have been hit or miss. (The Youtubers have got it covered better, I think.) Still, good info for those looking to get caught up in a hurry without the Internet.
Dance and cooking classes have shown up on the calendar. Will check some out after the crossing.
