  1. Yes. But there is only so much clothes I could haul around. ;) Well... I am single ... but who are you going on those other cruises with????
  2. Too bad there was not a company that did restores and the ship would end up as a waterfront Hotel.
  3. Best like that...... Fly to Ireland - with my friend for a short personal tour. At least a few pubs..... Then to the UK for a Premier division soccer game. London for a day or so to walk about. Train - Chunnell to France to Paris on walk about one or two days. Train to Gremany or Austria for October fest - long weekend there. Fly to Rome for a walk about in the city. Then to Spain for repositioning cruise home to FLL. Rent car to Disney and there to park hop for 5 days - fly home - report in dead after that.
  4. Set up the countdown clock and start watching it.....
  5. I only used Celebrity custom air one time when we were going to Houston and needed to be there. They guranteeded it. The cost was close to the airlines.
  6. Looks like you have two airlines - West Jet and Air Canada. About $400 per person.
  7. That's not shameless. But I also hear the samr thing on cruise prices - just waiting on a summer slam to RCCL prices for Mexican Riveria.
  8. My friend was saying they booked Alaska and got a great air fare a week ago.
  9. This is a link to my friends pictures from the Cruise I was on - Solstice. In the group photo I'm the guy in the back with the drink in his hand. The cabin pictures show a lot of different ones.
  10. Yes. Shop around for TA's. That is the place to start. TA's can do some things to help smooth out the vacation. Everyone here has one they work with all the time. Booking directly with the line you are kind of on your own in regards to getting things right in advance. And they are right about the price. The TA can get a better one and apply any price drops to the cabin. What would you like to do in the way of family things on the ship - group going age spread. This would go into the line to choose. Carnival is nice for younger aged cruisers. Each line has a specialty they cater too. So tell us what you are looking for.
  11. And then again there is the water bottle or Sprite bottle to carry on. Plastic but the coloring does not show well enough on the Sprite to show you have maybe rum in it. Something to think about. Put it in your pocket on the way back on to the ship - like it was said above baggy jeans shorts. - big pockets.
  12. What area of expert advice about cruises and or a ship in particular could you give but no one asks the question about it. Pose the question then the answer.......
  13. Not much other than get 10 or so friends to go along with me.
  14. But were they trying to sell you something when you landed?
  15. And try not to drive anywhere near the stadium. And be careful to watch out for the Pirate ship.
  16. If you read my lonnnnggggg review I bet I covered some of the things they went after. Can you post a like if the story was on line. Thanks....
  17. I write on to the line after every cruise. Thanking them and sending along names of every staff person who was a great help on the cruise. This helps them with promotions. The main office also passes them back to the ship.
  18. Well ridership on mass transit is up about 7% this year. Even after the gas prices came down. I think by the end of January we will know where the US is going. For now the cruise lines will price reduce to get people on the ships. They have a debt load to sservice and need bodies on the ship.
  19. Thank you. It takes time but well worth it as I now have it on paper - so to speak and can see myself doing the trip again and again. I try to craft it like a walk through.
  20. I have cruised with and without friends. If you saw me on ship you would wonder who hangs with this nut case. But I find a few of my type and off I go. Sorry about the cancel - try to pick up a Solstice together.
  21. Yes. I do it from just looking at a ship layout and thinking back as to what I did and what the areas were used for. My general thought and looking again at the cruise through my eyes. Nice to review it a few times as I write it down. Like I get to take the trip a few times. When I go back and read my older reviews it brings the trip right back to me.
  22. Yes. The ship size is a bit daunting to those who do not like to walk a lot. There is so much there I covered about half of it real well. I know where I would like to get back to and look again at some more areas to see the traffic in the areas at all times of the day. Yes. The ship is worth the trip or two.
