Bom dia! Ótimo vídeo, parabéns! Estarei no Utopia com minha família em Setembro. Gostaria de saber sobre o despacho das malas. Estaremos no final de nossas férias e com muitas bagagens cada um. Você despachou na entrada? Grande abraço do Brasil
@CruiseHabit9 күн бұрын
Bom dia! Agradecemos o comentário! 🙂 A nossa preferência é despachar a maioria da bagagem, mas ficar com uma ou duas malas menores de rodinhas contendo tudo que vamos usar no primeiro dia (medicamentos, protetor solar, roupas de banho, uma troca de roupas para o jantar, etc.). Já que as cabines podem demorar um pouco para ficarem prontas no dia do embarque, é melhor evitar ter muita coisa para carregar em um navio cheio. Só não despachamos tudo porque já aconteceu da bagagem demorar até depois da janta para ser entregue, e nem sempre vem tudo ao mesmo tempo. Um grande abraço e aproveitem a viagem! 🚢

Great video. Enjoying seeing all about your trip. We are about to do the same ship, same cruise. Might I ask, you only saw those two glaciers at glacier bay? I know the weather was not great. Not sure what to expect or to choose the Hubbard cruise. Glacier bay looks just breath taking. The rough seas worry me. Sea sickness is real with hubby and I…lol. Thanks because your videos have helped us so much!
@CruiseHabit18 күн бұрын
Thanks so much for watching! Those are the two large glaciers, but the whole area is spectacular. To me (and those in our party), it really didn't feel like, "we're going to see these glaciers" as much as "we're going to see a spectacular place, and there are glaciers." I've been to Hubbard Glacier as well on another cruise, though it was on a *much* smaller ship, so I'm not sure how the experience would be on a large ship like this (how close you can get). Overall I'd say Glacier Bay was a bigger, "all day" gorgeous experience, and Hubbard glacier, for us, was more spectacular for the glacier itself. As for sea sickness, I'm not sure how common that first rough day is as it was our first time out of Seattle. I don't suspect it's usually what we experienced, but that's speculative on my part. On our previous AK sailing we started in SF, went to Astoria, and then to AK, and the only rough time there, on a 650 pax ship, was heading toward Astoria.

In general it is definitely a lot more walking than on a ship like one of the Lady ships - though still less than a large land based resort, in many cases. Depends. Now, filming a ship tour and hitting every single space without stopping, I can assure you, is a lot 😉

You can sign up once you board. There is no cost. For Aqua Theater shows there is also a standby line for those without reservations, but that tends to be a bit harder than shows in the main theater (which often have available space).

Do you recommend purchasing the drink package?
@CruiseHabitАй бұрын
There are two scenarios where it makes sense: 1) You don't want to have to think about it each time - so you're just paying for the convenience (and getting to try anything you want). 2) You look at the menus and your itinerary and you think you'd spend more on bottled water, specialty coffees, soda, and alcoholic beverages than what you'd pay for the package. This depends a lot on not just how much you drink while on the ship and at Coco, but what you drink. I have an article on this topic, though I need to update it as it's a bit old, to be honest. www.cruisehabit.com/cruise-line-beverage-packages-should-you-get-drink-package

Curious about something…you’ve now also been on the Icon…since they’ve relocated the Aqua show essentially indoors and up to the top-middle of the ship (where, one would assume, the theatre would be less affected by wind/wave motion than in an outdoor open air location on the aft)…were there fewer Aqua show cancellations? ..We were on Oasis last October and FIVE of the eight schedules performances were either cancelled or drastically shortened…the only performance we got to actually see only went off without problems because we hadn’t left port at Port Canaveral until 2/3 of the way through the show…quite disappointing because I would’ve Loved to catch Aqua ‘80’s a second time!
@CruiseHabitАй бұрын
I was only on Icon once, and didn't get to see the show there, as they had cancellations - though I don't recall if it was a technical issue with the new show (it was the maiden) or a motion problem. I'd strongly suspect they have fewer cancellations, that was the point of the design, but I don't have data (anecdotal or concrete) to support or dispell that theory.

Watching through your video I noticed that they allow smoking on the pool deck at the Lime in the Coconut. That would be a no go for me since I have allergic reactions to cigarette smoke. This is why I cruise Disney, they keep the smoking area up and away from the family areas. In this day and age, with more and more people not being able to, nor wanting to be around cigarette smoke, this is a horrible decision for RCL.
@CruiseHabitАй бұрын
It's a considerable smoking area, but also a large ship. It's easy to avoid if you remember it's there, which is the challenge for me, TBH.
@jaklg7905Ай бұрын
@@CruiseHabit Respectfully, as someone who is extremely sensitive and allergic to it, the smoke is going to be in that whole area. Meaning that deck would be off limits to someone with issues with it. And that is a big deal to not have access to that pool area even just to walk past it. The reality is that many people are not have a horrible sense of smell and are not bothered by it, especially not to the level as someone who gets reactions from it. More and more people every year are having medical episodes due to cigarette/vape/perfume/cologne exposure. I think that in this day and age, the cruise ships should be doing a better job of placing smoking areas away from main areas.
