There and Back Again: Travel and Accommodations (included as it is not obviously linked on the website.)

It is not possible to fly directly to Port Canaveral. If you are flying, some people are choosing to fly in early, stay at a hotel and then take a shuttle to the port, while others are going to arrive day of cruise to get a shuttle to Port Canaveral.

It can be expensive to transfer. It could easily cost you over $100 round trip if you go alone.

With that in mind, several spreadsheets have started to try and organize into money-saving groups.

Radisson/hotel shuttle Spreadsheet This is the one if you are flying in early and staying at the Radisson Arenson9 is organizing this grouping.

Direct MCO to Port Canaveral Spreadsheet This is the one if you are flying in/out on the same as the cruise sails/arrives (10th/17th)

Schedule

Official JoCo Cruise Crazy 3 schedule

Shadow cruise event schedule

RCI (generic cruise ship aka Snork) event schedule

RCI does not officially publish its schedule, but many people save their Cruise Compass sheets to share with others. The following is for the same ship on the same route, which set sail in September 2012. There will be changes on our cruise most assuredly, but it gives a good idea of the sorts of activities you can expect that RCI has planned. Itinerary

Crowd-Sourced Activities

Unofficial Groups

These groups are not endorsed by the PTB or Famous People™, they are just ways for like-minded monkeys to try and get together and meet on the cruise

If you are a coordinator of one of these groups, please feel free to put in more information, links to google docs etc.

If you want to form a sub-group, please do, there is no official process.

Dining

Sea Monkeys will be dining at 6pm (early seating) as a default From the forum "...this year, we'll all be attending the EARLY dinner seating instead of the late seating; and many (though not necessarily all) of the Main Stage performances will take place before dinner. This was done for two reasons: 1) The main stage had more time slots available to us with this schedule. 2) This way, evening events can start a little earlier while also allowing some breathing room between dinner and the evening events. Also, note that early dinner on RCI starts a bit later than it did last year."

Information regarding the various beverage packages.

Unconfirmed Main Dining Room dinner menus (.pdf), menu photos, liquor list, beer list, another beer list and bar menu.

Confirmed scotch and bourbon list.

Soda and alcohol are not included in your cruise fare.

There are two formal nights on the cruise for the main dining room.

Sea Monkeys are working on a sooper seekrit signal (or semi-obvious sign) to show their table wherever they are is available and open to other Sea Monkeys to join them.

Specials for JCCC3 Sea Monkeys

One of the Sea Monkeys has procured a VIP discounted internet access rate for Sea Monkeys of 20 cents/minute of internet access. Yes, it is still expensive, but it is far less expensive than it could be. | Details
