    What's AA paid wifi like?

    Most of the AA fleet uses ViaSat which has been pretty reliable in my experience. Southwest is actually transitioning to ViaSat for some of their planes so if you've used the Southwest ViaSat product it would be similar, i.e. better than the old Southwest product. Delta, United and JetBlue also...

    Any info on British airlines/American

    The economy class (BA World Traveller Class) seats on the upper deck of the A380 are the same as on the main deck (scroll down to the second image in the link below). In my opinion, the main benefit of the upper deck economy seats are for couples; the two outside sections of seats are in pairs...

    London Testing for Remaining Dover Cruises

    We tested this morning using eMed/Navica tests and I was impressed with how quickly Prenetics cleared us to sail after I uploaded the test results. One was cleared in less than one minute and the other cleared about 5 minutes later.

    11yo freedom on board

    This. My kid's first junky cruise "phone" met a watery death while snorkeling at St. Lucia. He learned an important lesson and treats his electronics with much more care to this day. They've got to make mistakes at some point.

    11yo freedom on board

    We did something very similar to what you’re thinking. On the first day we had our son lead us from various places on the ship back to the stateroom before we sent him off on his own. As for the phone, I completely agree with you about 11 year olds and phones - at that age we had an old...

    September 4th, 2022 -7-Night Norwegian Fjords Cruise from Dover (Alesund, Nordfjordeid, Eidfjord, Stavanger)

    Most of those vendors have 48 hour cancellation policies so we'll be keeping an eye on the weather and adjusting as needed. We're on the same boat (ha!) with the inside stateroom rates. It will also be our first cruise without our son and in an inside room. But that rate effectively paid for...

    September 4th, 2022 -7-Night Norwegian Fjords Cruise from Dover (Alesund, Nordfjordeid, Eidfjord, Stavanger)

    I've been to the Oslo area a few times at various times of the year but never the West Coast. I expect the weather on the coast to be variable in September. 🤞we should get some nice days.

    September 4th, 2022 -7-Night Norwegian Fjords Cruise from Dover (Alesund, Nordfjordeid, Eidfjord, Stavanger)

    Hello. My wife and I booked this cruise last week. It's an odd feeling to book a sailing and check in just a few days later! If anyone is still looking for excursions, we managed to book several directly with the vendor, including some that are sold out on DCL. I've never used any of these...

    Denied Boarding at the Port...Can We Fly Home?

    Essentially it's the theory that returning your shopping cart is the primary test of one's moral character and the key to your ability to particpate in civil society.

    Birth certificate - no longer need certified copy/raised seal, right?

    The passport card is valid for land and sea ports of entry in Canada and Mexico. Remember, the passport card can't be used for border crossings when traveling by air so if there is an emergency on the ship or in Mexico you will not be able to use the passport card to fly home (you could drive...

    Birth certificate - no longer need certified copy/raised seal, right?

    Passport cards are not valid for entry to Martinique. We were just there on the Wonder and the instructions provided for Martinique said that we had to use passport books to leave the ship at Martinique. A Conde Nast Traveller article also lists the following: Some Caribbean nations—including...

    Krispy Kremes on Fantasy

    We saw the Krispy Kreme packaging behind the buffet line on the Wonder two weeks ago. You should be good to go.

    Does anyone know what the activity "Wine and Shine "is on the dream? I noticed it in some recent navigators.

    Perhaps a wine and moonshine tasting? They do a "Sake and Shine" with Morimoto and Art Smith at Disney Springs.

    Cupcakes on the Disney Wonder?

    There are sometimes cupcakes in the pastry case at the Cove Cafe. They're free, but I'm not sure if they're the same recipe as "Disney cupcakes". The pastry chefs on board don't necessarily use the same recipes as the parks. I found this photo of Orange Chocolate cupcakes in the upper right...

    A couple of questions regarding travel agents, OBCs and making payments online

    Based on the last sentence it sounds like s/he doesn't want to have to make a phone call to make a payment, regardless of weather it's "through" or "to" the agent. Here's the Dreams Unlimited payment form: https://www.dreamsunlimitedtravel.com/reservations/process/index.cfm Does that work for...
