1. No reservations required for breakfast or lunch. Dinner reservations are a good idea. 2. If you rent a cabana at Labadee you can bring non-suite guests into Barefoot Beach. A cabana can accommodate 6 people, total. Guests are not permitted unless there is a cabana involved. As suite guests, you and your wife will be welcome anywhere in Barefoot Beach (whether you have a cabana or not) at any time. You can go in, enjoy the upgraded lunch buffet and then leave and go back to some other beach, if you choose to do that. Personally, I don't think the upgraded lunch is that much different from the buffets at the other beaches so I'm not sure if I would go out of my way to get the "upgraded" food but you could if you wanted to. 3. Junior suites (Sea Class) do not have feee wifi as part of theirs suites amenities. If the guests are Diamond Plus or Pinnacle Club members they would get free or limited free wifi as a function of their loyalty status but not necessarily as guests in a Jr Suite 4. Formal nights are usually nights 2 and 5 but that's always subject to change.

Hey Matt and everyone! I am on Adventure of the Seas right now. We are about to leave Curaçao and go to Aruba tomorrow. The weather is perfect down here and we are far away from Irma. The captain just announced that instead of going to St Kitts on Friday, they are going to cancel that stop and go to Bonaire on Thursday instead and have a Sea day on Friday. We are still expected to be back in San Juan on Saturday, but that could change based on hurricane Irma's damage. They will keep us posted. Just wanted to let everyone know that Royal Caribbean is keeping us informed and out of harms way. Royal has been absolutely amazing all week!

Hi Susan, Welcome to our group! In all my RC cruises since 2006, I do not remember a "Tea Time" being offered on any of the ships we were on. Of course, you could always do your own Tea Time at the coffee shop on board. They do offer some tea blends and many delicious cookie/pastry to go along with your tea.

Personally, I think planning a Caribbean cruise during the hurricane season (August-November, with mid Sept. the peak) is just not a good idea. Yeah, I know that's the only time a lot of folks can get away due to work, family commitments, etc. To me it is just an expensive exercise in what could be massive disappointment. I truly wish the best on those folks who are on a cruise now or waiting to find out more on their booked cruise.

Best prices were on day 1 of booking. I have a 4D Balcony for the TA on 10/28/18. We are paying $3,138.96 for two of us and that includes gratuities and taxes. That's a 12-night cruise! Check the price now.

So my prediction from Thursday still stands true...it will affect the ABC islands(at least some of them) and it will/did affect the OP's cruise itinerary!

Hopefully Raj will be back on Harmony when you sail. He was an amazing concierge.

@WAAAYTOOO your awesome! Your reply should end with a "mic drop" because you answer so precisely that there is nothing else that needs to be said! I really appreciate your quick response.

Brian, where did you get the list of group events ? I haven't seen anything about group events yet !

Yeah, get the F**** out of here!

Guittech, This is a CRUISE. Don't, or try not to, get too spun up on planning/researching, etc. If there is something once on board you are not happy with, there are RC folks you can talk to about rectifying the situation. Dinner plan can also be changed once on board. Relax and HAVE FUN.

We are currently on this cruise. The weather has been beautiful (except for departure day) and all is well. Hopefully it remains that way ! We're in Bermuda now...will stay overnight and leave tomorrow afternoon. Very enjoyable and relaxing.

Portland?

In a pinch...

Think someone is watching us... That or they want a Miller Lite.

Dessert theme in WJ was "Stuff in a Cup" Food wise, Caribbean Colors, various dish like Jerk pork and chicken. Plus many of the stations from the first night.

In Boston walking the Freedom Trail.

I did a spreadsheet like that last year when when cruised the Mediterranean on Harmony and my wife thought I was crazy, but by the end of the week she was consulting it to see what was planned for the next day... Nice Spreadsheet btw...

Looks like a fun-filled week. Enjoy the cruise, everyone.

Two weeks!

It's ok, Matt. If you're skurred, just say you're skurred. I'm a little skurred.
