Dear Prudence asked:


We want to go to Italy the first week of September. Wish to spend time in Florence and Rome. Can originate from Detroit, Cleveland, or Pittsburgh. What is the most efficient way to get there by air?

I’m looking for efficiency over price as time is our limiting factor.

*best to fly through New York and then direct to Rome?
*best to change planes in Europe (paris, amsterdam, etc.)?
*best to fly direct to Paris and then take a high speed to Italy?

We’re planning for our big spring break, and this year we decided to venture on a cruise. However, we’re a little stumped on which cruise to go on. So far, we’ve looked at Royal Caribbean and Carnival. We would also like to travel to the Caribbeans or around the Mediterranean area. Anyone have suggestions?

So much food is wasted on cruises every year..
Maybe cruise companies can start donating wasted food at ports?
What’s wrong with donating the food at the port areas for human consumption?

If it’s going to be thrown out anyway, why not?

I had heard that air travels faster over the top so that a void isn’t created, as the air that travels underneath has shorter to travel, but I don’t buy that. There’s nothing that forces two air molecules at the front of the wing to join each other at the back of the wing.

I just participated on an automated 10 question phone survey where after completion they offered a complimentary cruise vacation for 2 days/2 nights to Nassau/Bahamas leaving from Ft Lauderdale. The cruise ship is the Regal Empress from Imperial Majesty Cruise Lines.
Has anyone been on this ship?
Has anyone ever participated in a deal like this?

I don’t believe this to be anything relating to time-share or anything where I would need to participate in a 90 min program. However, I’m not sure.

The survey just asked very generic questions, and did not ask for anything personal or any credit card information. Someone from the cruise line is supposed to call me to finalize all the accomodations in a few days.

It just sounds a little too good to be true.

((and I know it’s not going to be a large new ship and that’s ok, as this will be my first cruise))

My husband and I are planning a cruise with our 1 year old. I know some cruise lines do not allow children who aren’t potty trained to swim in any of their pools (even kiddie pools). We are looking for a cruise ship that allows swim diapers in pools.
