Destiny March 14-19 2026

[poluwai]

Hi! We are sailing on the Destiny out of Port Everglades March 14-19 2026. Anyone else sailing on this voyage? So excited to be on the newest ship!!

Hi, my husband and I are sailing on this itinerary also. We will be celebrating our 30th anniversary.

Myself, DH and DS (17) will also be on this sailing. We are so excited to try out the new ship!!!!

Yep, we will be there as well, celebrating a milestone birthday!

Any scuba divers interested in sharing a private charter in Cozumel with Aldora Divers? They are one of, perhaps the best, dive ops in Cozumel, with small fast boats, big steel tanks, and the correct nitrox mixes. If you're interested, please reply here or let me know by PM. I would ask that you have nitrox certification and recent dive experience (i.e., at least one other dive or a refresher course between now and the cruise). I have Advanced Open Water and 110 dives. The week I spent on Cozumel a couple years ago was really amazing, and it makes a big difference if you're in a large group on a so-called "cattle boat" versus a group of at most 4 with a very experienced captain and divemaster.

Please also chime in if you would like tips on taxis or a beach club.

Very happy to be on a brand-new ship but not one of the very first voyages. Things will hopefully be running pretty smoothly by March!

Thinking about the lovely lunch I had at Playa Palancar Beach Club. It's a US$25 taxi ride from the cruise pier, approx MXN 300 (~US$17) return, US$20 per person for chairs on a gorgeous white sand beach. Or they have an all-inclusive program for US$80 that is all you care to eat and drink. 125 days to go!

Just made our final payment!

Getting more excited as the days count down. This will be our first for being on a brand new ship the first year it is out. Merry Christmas y'all

41 days until we board!

If you’re a scuba diver in the mood for some drift diving, I booked a private charter with Aldora, one of the best of the dozens of operations on the island. There are 4 seats, including me.

Just one month till folks will be getting on their flights! Today is a good day to make sure you have eyes on your passport.

 

[chris31997]

If I could get away with it, I would be packing my suitcases right now (Hubby would not go for it ). I am working on my mental lists on what to bring. Luggage tags, passports, and Disney gift cards in one spot.

 

[AprilN]

Still waiting for our luggage tags... can't believe we'll be arriving at Cozumel in 4 weeks!

 

[princesscinderella]

I’m on this cruise too! We got our luggage tags last week.

 

[chris31997]

I am in the make detail plan stage of planning for our cruise and try to hide all the planning from my hubby so I don't drive him nuts . Really just short of full on packing, although I have begun to pull out my "fancy" dresses and what I'll need for those. Got wish list from our kids for souvenirs.

Don't mind the crazy lady bouncing at the port super excited to be back on the ship

 

[wnissen]

Boy, it sure took a while to get those tags, but they are in hand.

 

[princesscinderella]

Is everyone still waiting on their check in documents to clear? I am

 

[chris31997]

Is everyone still waiting on their check in documents to clear? I am

Yeah, still waiting here. I don't remember it taking this long. Does anyone know when our check-in doc are supposed to be cleared?

 

[AprilN]

Our online check-in was just finalized yesterday, and we finally got our luggage tags on Monday. Single digits! Time to sail!

 

[princesscinderella]

I got my finalized email this morning! So excited

 

[chris31997]

Single Digit count down: 8 days !!!!!

Is there anything y'all are looking forward to doing? Anything a must do?

Silly I know, but I am looking to pick up certain souvenirs for our kiddos who won't be joining us this time and to visit as many of the bars as possible. I promise I won't be that drunk person on the cruise They just look like a fun place to hang out.
