It wasn't when we were there in January.

The last time we went to Il Mulino in December, they said that they no longer do 1/2 portions of the pasta (or maybe it was they don't do half portions unless you also order something else?). I know for sure DH had a 1/2 portion last September but he did also order two appetizers too. So either...

$300 is a lot of money for breakfast and a lounge to sit in for a couple of hours while your room is made ready, assuming there isn't already one available. I'd be more inclined to drop my bags at bell services and then go somewhere for a nice leisurely breakfast - not necessarily at the Poly...

That's our preference, too, but now they have moved all of the WDW resort and MCO Hyatt transfers too early for our liking. I prefer a later embarkation and then go directly to the room. I didn't even know what a boarding group number was until about our 8th cruise because we always arrived...

Well put - I'd have to say that's probably why we don't do that the first night. I'm not sure how much I'll enjoy it, given that I've probably been up early to repack and get to the port and the slight chaos that is embarkation day. I also like to meet with my table companions (assuming we...

Hard to know specifically but I have allergies to seafood, sunflower, and spinach and I've never had a problem there in making sure that I'm accommodated but you'd definitely need to indicate in advance when you book and then check when you get there. It's entirely possible that some sauces...

I rarely eat dessert; sometimes, I'll have a liqueur instead. Sometimes salad and appetizer and sometimes just one or the other, either because I'm not hungry or not much appeals to me. I usually find that our servers get that cadence after the first day or so. I might make a point that I'm not...

We did it several years ago (2019 I think). Yes, it started and ended at the CR. The host gets you a car just for the group on the monorail. IIRC, we did a starting drink at what was the Wave at the time. Appetizers at the Poly, short rib entree (so good) at Citricos, something at the tea room...

We much prefer QVR over the main dining room. It's more intimate, and you get more customized service. They intentionally stagger reservation times so that they can spend time with you to go over preferences and get you started. You're far enough away from the other tables that you don't feel...

I think they had so many problems with the ones on the AquaDuck on both Fantasy and Dream that they decided not to bother with them on the Wish. I know that most of the times we've been on the AquaDuck, it never worked. You also go a lot faster on the AquaMouse once you get past the cartoon section.

We did Remy in January of this year, and I have several allergies (seafood, spinach, sunflower, kiwi). When we were seated, they had a fully designed menu for me that included some items that were already on the menu, some that were modified, and I think one that they just made up. We've been to...

Jiko. It can be nice and leisurely. There's still kids there but it's not a big popular spot with children or at least it hasn't been when we were there. The braised short rib is delicious.

Crew's Cup Lounge (pull apart bread with roasted garlic - yum!, caesar salad, DH said lobster bisque was nice, then we shared the prime rib sliders. They don't appear on the menu online but they were on the menu when we ate there in Jan). Nomad Lounge. Everything! Geyser Point. You can get a...

You also can't carry any luggage onboard that won't fit through the security scanners. So, basically, it's airport carry-on size. Everything else has to be checked and will be delivered later. That's why I prefer not to arrive too early so that I can go directly to my stateroom and drop my bags...

If it's a *GT rate, the room you might get if you booked it might not even be in the same category as the one you booked originally. And may not be even the best room in that category. Even if you were able to cancel for no cost and rebook, what you are able to rebook might not be equivalent to...

That wouldn't make any sense. There is a staircase in relative proximity to your stateroom that you go down for the muster drill that takes you to your station. So I think the muster station is based on location only. Also, we've often sailed with friends who are in very different locations -...

It's definitely a risk of a hurricane but we did one last year in the first week of September. Biggest drawback for us was the heat. We didn't really intend to get off the ship. We got off at Nassau just to walk around the new port area and see what was there. We were off maybe 30-35 minutes and...

There are only two ways to get to Epcot from BC: walking or taking the boat (which takes longer than walking plus the time to wait for the boat). It's a 5-8-minute walk, depending on where your room is located. We have done late August and it's no worse than waiting for a bus. The best part is...

We don't find the monorail to be that convenient to get to MK. However, I will say that when we stay at GF, we usually take the boat over to MK, and that is convenient because a lot of people don't seem to realize that it's there so lines are usually shorter. But I have to second the...

It will depend on the time of year, time of day and the guard, and I don't know - the position of the sun, the transiting of Venus or something. We've had friends who had trouble getting in to see us or pick us up at WL, GF, BC and YC. A couple of times, they were coming to have dinner with us...
