    Celebrity Newbie Questions- comparisions to DCL?

    Celebrity is not nearly as strict about PAT. Doing your online check-in just makes the port process so much easier. Just aim to head to the port sometime after 11am, getting there around noon and you'll be fine. I've done both, if you are comfortable with the choice and the price book through...

    Beyond Big Thunder

    It seems like Disney rotates through the parks what they are doing/adding. Early 2010s it was Magic Kingdom Mid 2010s it was DHS and Animal Kingdom Late 2010s it was Epcot Now it’s been over a decade since New Fantasyland and it is time for MK to get some love. I do agree with people they...

    NCL leaves passengers behind in Africa

    Probably because it would not cost much. Banjul, the Gambia to Dakar, Senegal is about 340km. I mean all of the Gambia is inside Senegal. One of the weirdest border situations there is. Just looking at the cruise, there is a pretty big 3 sea days and a stop in Abidjan between Sao Tome and...

    NCL leaves passengers behind in Africa

    I did look at the cruises NCL offers for Africa. Lots of interesting stuff. Probably one of the easiest ways to see Sao Tome and Principe, Cabo Verde, Seychelles, Mauritius, Reunion, Mayotte.

    NCL leaves passengers behind in Africa

    The article is a bit sensationalized or the people involved were not the brightest. Just looking at logistics, there shouldn't have been much difficulty to book a flight to Lisbon and onwards from Lisbon to Dakar or to Libreville and onwards to Dakar. Gabon is a straightforward eVisa. And if you...

    How much do drinks cost at the bars?

    Happy Hours are sometimes are not ideal times. Probably for a reason. I think drinks ranged from about 8 to 20 dollars. Depending on location and type. Prices seemed inline with WDW prices for the most part.

    It has been back to buffet since at least late 2022.

    Does booking room through TA save money?

    Disney is not the only one doing this. Many cruise lines and other hospitality companies have stopped the block sale discounts.

    Magic - 10 night Eastern Caribbean

    Food is similar. Not sure one is 'better' but there are pros and cons to both.

    Is ~$400 more worth it for an extra night?

    I am having this same debate on the Dream cruises from PE. Differences is over 500 dollars for that extra Nassau night. Not sure if it is worth it for an extra night to a port I am not fond of.

    Magic - 10 night Eastern Caribbean

    Just to be clear this is St John's the capital of Antigua and Barboda. Not Saint John, USVI. With the ports chosen, this is just an extended Eastern Caribbean cruise. Southern would be things like Barbados, Grenada, St Vincent, Martinique. I would call Disney uninspired for their port choices...

    Separate cabin for college-age kids?

    Yes. Yes you should. One is privacy for both you and your adult offspring and the bigger one. Bathroom time. 4 adults trying to share a cruise ship bathroom is just insane to me.

    Norway vs Mediterranean

    My view is based on what interests me. For Southern Europe so much of what I want to see is away from the water. Whereas most of the best parts of Norway can be easily seen by water. I think you would get a better representation of the destination with Norway. I could easily spend 2 weeks in the...

    Porter to start flights to Orlando

    Silver lining, you might really enjoy flying into YTZ. It is a cute, easy little airport. It also probably has the nicest approach of any airport in Canada. Get a window seat.

    They are here! (Summer 2025 I mean)

    So after some careful consideration the cruise that looks most attractive to me is the Dream out of PE for 5 nights doing both private islands in September. But I have to wonder, what are the odds that the Fantasy will be doing a similar/same cruise in October/November once it makes the journey...

    Just returned from the Carnival Mardi Gras

    Over zealous enforcement of privacy and recording policies onboard.

    Just returned from the Carnival Mardi Gras

    This is a major theme of reviews and feedback about NCL, Royal and Carnival currently. That if you are on one of the new classes of ships (Prima/Viva, Oasis/Icon/Quantum classes and Mardi Gras/Jubilee) it is a completely different experience than an older ship. Princess looks to be going into...

    D23 2024 expectations (Parks & Experiences)

    DCL 2 new ships and the timeline for the retirement of the Wonder and the Magic. I am sure they will announce a wonderful year of cruises to celebrate their retirement and legacy so they can charge extra bucks for those cruises Disneyland Some cool proposals that will eventually get cancelled...

    What airlines should I consider from Toronto to Orlando?

    I have flown every major and legacy carrier in North America. I've had problems, delays and cancellations on them all. I have sat at JFK for six or more hours because of delays and equipment issues with Delta and Jetblue. I have had last minute equipment changes on Air Canada, United and...
