I get to book our activities Saturday night....fingers crossed we can get Palo brunch but I have a feeling it will be very hard to get.

My booking window is coming up very soon-- was wondering if there's anything unique on Destiny that's different from Wish that can be booked at the original booking window.

There is a Haunted Mansion private photo session you can book on the sea day. There is also a private photo session on Castaway that you can book. Those were the only different things I remember. I hope you get everything you want. We are Pearl and Palo brunch was gone before I even got to try for it. I’ll see if I can get it when we get onboard.

Thank you so much! Very interesting intel. We’re not huge haunted mansion people, but we do love Castaway Cay, so I’m interested in the photo shoot concept— we are not in a Concierge room so I doubt we’ll end up getting a Cabana.

We’re newly platinum so I was hoping that it would be easier than our gold booking window, but sounds like early sailings are heavily weighted towards Pearl and Concierge.

I passed on the HM but did reserve the Castaway photo shoot. Our daughter is a senior this year so I’m thinking we could get some great photos for that.

The Maiden is certainly full of Concierge and Pearl guests and with only 1 day that Palo brunch is being offered I knew it would be hard to get. I was able to get a Palo dinner but we always do dinner as a family so I’m hoping to switch it when we get onboard.

Good luck!

Late to the party! We are on the Inaugural Maiden voyage with a 15 daughter. We slacked and didn't book Palo, but we never have a problem, even on Maidens, getting Palo by walking up. Maybe they have a history of our wine and bar bill lol. Booked the spa and didn't try for a cabana. When we do cabanas we rarely stay in them, unless it's the summer and then we hide in them. Looking forward to the Maiden swag and excitement.

Those of you who have been able to book, what are the excursion options available at Lighthouse Point? We are going in December and cannot see what excursions are. I always thought I could see options ahead of time. Our booking window is supposed to open later this week and wanted to see what my family might be interested in me getting as we all live in different time zones.

Thanks for the help!
