Dec 21, 2024 · For an Alaska cruise, we had zero issues with the HVAC, whether in our room or elsewhere. No plumbing issues at all. No issues taking the stairs anywhere, or experiencing bottlenecks (and we tend to avoid the elevators). The hot tubs felt great (again, Alaska cruise, so we definitely enjoyed them). I wouldn't have an issue sailing on the Grand ...

Sep 18, 2024 · Our family is scheduled on a NCL Epic cruise in August 2025. I purposely booked this after seeing that the Epic was going to drydock the end of May through 1 June 2025. As of today, I’m seeing that cruises are now open on the Epic end of May. On cruise mapper is now showing that the Epic is going to dry dock in November 2025.

Dec 13, 2024 · Hi, I saw some information about what will change during the dry dock early 2025. I believe there will be an O’Malleys added, yay!

Nov 12, 2024 · I always have this route pre-planned because if the issue arises you need the solution now. This is my fall back measure. These are major considerations to contribute to a perfect cruise. Our last cruise I was with partner and neither of these problems would be relevant. We were changed from mid-ships Deck 6 to extremely Aft Deck 12.

Oct 25, 2024 · Is there a drydock schedule listing the dates and services planned for Princess ships next year? We haven't been able to find anything on CC or Google.

Dec 7, 2024 · Welcome to Cruise Critic. There are lots of folk here who have sailed on Seashore. There are Ports of Call boards here for information about the Bahamas, Costa Maya and Cozumel. Lots of cruise reviews and Live From threads that cover Ocean Cay.

Jan 2, 2025 · However, this is the worst cruising experience we, my wife and I, have experienced. We booked “THIS” cruise to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary with our Son, Daughter and their spouses. This was a major expenditure ($6,000+) for two retired people that love cruising and wanted this Special Event on a nice cruise line.

Jan 4, 2025 · We were on a cruise 2 weeks ago and were off the ship and on the road by 7:15 am, so no s---show for us fortunately. If this is your first CCL cruise your carry ons will have to stay with you until they open the cabin to the masses (typically around 1:30 pm).
