How to get an American Passport Same Day
Hi, as a Costa Rican I can say that reason to have a low speed driving limit is due to the type of "highways", they are most like roads with a lot of curves and that is the reason to drive a little bit slower that other countries; traffic is awfull and people need to be very patient, if you use waze never trust in how many time you will get to the spot you need to go.
Thanks Josh. Good advice. Do they still use the phrase "PURA VIDA" in Costa Rica?
Hi Doug, yes we use PURA VIDA almost for everything, as an answer, as a feeling, as greetings, basically for everything.
Blessings bro
That painting at 06:58 is Venice, the building is called the Santa Maria Della Salute
Very helpful! Thank you!
So no fridge to store our own waters?
There is a small shelf on the top for personal items. Might fit 2 20oz bottles at best. I sometimes fill the sink with ice and use that to keep items cool.
Airport check in only. No online check in. 😅.
I am not sure why they don't have an app yet. I feel this would be helpful.
It doesn’t really save you as much as you think, especially when there are sales or travel agents that get you cheaper
Thank you for checking out the video. Sometimes they have a few deals, but I always like to shop many airlines and compare. I wish ones like Play and Norse would show up on Google Flights.
Just finished sailing her on August 25, Greek Islands. Ship was clean, food was ok, almost identical menus to our Epic sailing 2 years ago. Lots of kids. No Greek food served at all, that was disappointing. Entertainment was not as good as the Epic. 7/10
I haven't been to many shows on any of the Norwegian Cruises that I have been on (Getaway, Star, and Bliss) But I need to check out a few.
Thanks for this video! I will be on the Getaway in a month and I'm so excited!
That is exciting, she is a nice ship.
Your voice is pleasant and I was enjoying the video. However, the panning of the camera and changes of scenes are too abrupt and was triggering my vertigo something terrible. Had to turn the video off after a couple of minutes.
Sorry for this, sometimes I have vertigo that makes things difficult. But thank you for checking out the video.
Taking the Getaway in Jan 2025. So looking forward to it.
I believe you will enjoy it. I have been on the getaway 2 times.
Do they have any activities
Is there a Solo meet up on board?
Is Starbucks included with free at sea
I don’t really know I dont think so bc I went 3 ncl cruises it wasn’t free and I will find out tomorrow in Greece if it free or not
Starbucks is not included.
Not included. 😒
Starbucks and your Norwegian cruise. #starbucks #norwegiancruises #allyoucandrink #cruisetravel
Thank you for making this video! It was nice to have a peek at what to expect!
Thank you for checking out my video! I always like to watch videos before I sail on a ship. Gives me an idea of what I have to see or do.
Great video bro✊🏿
Thank you for checking out the video!
I've taken a vacation from Vegas. Been thinking about Luxor for a bit. Do you find it's hard ahh takes forever to get here at night?
It does take longer to get to the Luxor and makes walking a bit more exercise than if you stayed mid strip.
Hi, is there a chance that the seats, meals and checked luggage are cheaper before the flight. Or is it absolutely impossible?
It is cheapest when you book. Seems to only get more expensive as the time gets closer.
Nice Job!!
Thank you for checking out my video.
Just came form Divina Civitavechia , Italia, I have to said never before been in a cruise and I will never do it again … I consider myself a travel people and cruise is not for me … bad food , bad excursions, bad costumer service , dirty , over crowded restaurants buffet and pools , never again even if is free !🤷♂️
I completely understand. Cruising isn't for everyone. I like all-inclusive resorts also, I just don't get to visit them as often.
What stateroom number were you in?
10102, it was an interesting room underneath the bridge.
Does the room have a coffee pot?
Unfortunately I believe it does not.
We just booked the Getaway for a 7day Caribbean cruise in march of 2025. It will be me and my wifes first ever vacation, let alone cruise lol. You and your boy's videos have been VERY helpful. Thank you guys so much!
7/8/24 - they do not have online check-option; they tell you on the website what time "in airport check-in" begins ... in my case 4 hours prior to the flight. IMPORTANT TO KNOW!
I said and heard two other people say the store is chaos but they have good food for sure
It is chaos, especially when one is brand new. But the brisket and buccee nuggets make up for it.
The only thing they sent you is the confirmation no electronic ticket no terminals info no check in online
I'm a dude solo traveling on Divina in January. I even have the same room area. Maybe different deck but same angled balcony deal on the right side of the ship ( was your room in the 50s?) Wow. Ultra appreciate your perspective given we may 95% have they same setup on the details of the trip. 🤝
Ha just saw your reply to the other commenter. So actually same deck different area. Was your camera inverted? Didn't think 193 and 52 would be next to each other?
I don't believe my camera was inverted. I was on the left side of the ship. The larger balcony I had was great.
Around how long did the whole trip take you?
About an hour.
Thank you my man
What agency?
It’s the us passport agency. They have several locations throughout the United States. This was in El Paso as it was the closest and easiest to get an appointment last minute.
I shall be using this train in December when I jet off to the Austrian Alps!
It is a fantastic service. It was a lot of help and made things that much easier.
I love how detailed you are about the pools like if they have saltwater and how deep they are and if they're heated!
To me this is important information. I like to always know before I go.
Nice video we are headed up to Alaska on the Ovation this Friday
The sound quality is horrible. Sorry. I tried watching
Honestly sound quality is a big issue. I am going to have to invest in better audio equipment
Okay, I watched it on my Google home hub and the sound quality was better than that of the phone. Possibly turning the volume down a little bit might help
I agree about the sound quality. With it being as poor as it is, I would take out the background music. It makes it even more difficult to understand what they’re saying.
I can’t find the price for the ropes course. Do you know the cost?
It is complimentary which is my favorite price
Batteries and cables look.... off in X-ray machines haha. A good way to avoid delays (and I tell people this all the time) if you have a large amount of cords/wires, to store them in a separate bag from the batteries. Makes it look alot more benine in an X-ray reading.
They do look questionable in x-ray, they showed me in London when I got pulled aside. I need to put the cables in my carryon, however it’s something that I usually need fairly quickly to plug stuff in.
How can you go about purchasing the meal before you are actually on the airlane?
It was something you can add when you manage your booking. Or when Norse sends you the email to do check in there will be a spot to purchase that there.
When did y’all go?
June 2023, it wasn’t hot at all, the rain kind of sucked but it was beautiful
Also where did you purchase Starbucks package …. How much?
So I was wrong, NCL has a starbucks standalone package. Royal Caribbean does not. My apologies for the confusion.
What dates did y’all go? Researching weather
It was June 19th 2023, it was 50’s and rainy.
Hi! Would you mind sharing what cabin number this is? Trying to book the best obstructed balcony possible! 😊
13193 and I am going to link that video below for you ua-cam.com/video/hnrW4U3O7K4/v-deo.htmlsi=Ooij18zEc2FtWeSA
Chicken or turkey sausage or bacon??
I believe everything was pork. I personally prefer turkey bacon but I did not see it. I would imagine you might be able to ask the omelette chef for one of those options.
You show yourself too much - one of the worst videos ever please delete youtube or talk on show only ship footage
Just checked website. Absolutely No online check in
24 hours to departure they will send you an email with a link.
this is true. they dont have it anywhere. you gotta stand in line to check in. even if you dont have luggage.
I thought there was No online check in period. That All check in was at the airport?
24 hours prior to departure they will send you an email and that is how you check in.
@@travelslarge Not anymore!
@@travelslarge they never did this. they dont issue boarding passes online at all.
Where can I buy the ticket?
Gatwick express ticketing. 🚂 #gatwickairport #travel #london
Looks tasty 😋
The food on Virgin voyages is fantastic.
Looks fire 🔥
They are amazing.
And there 5$ on temu
I wish I could attach a picture but you are absolutely correct. If you’re not in a rush great way to save a few dollars! Thank you!
