Does check-in open at midnight? And 5 other Royal Caribbean check-in questions

This seems like a lovely live blog. I think I'll follow it

I wish you the best of luck going forward.  

You were always so friendly, helpful, and supportive.  I'm sure you'll do quite well in your next chapter!

I believe all they have are pack and plays

You really don't need to spend extra on your day at CocoCay.

The up charge options are very visible because Royal Caribbean pushes them heavily in the app and in email marketing. But the truth is you can have a great day without spending extra!

In fact, your toddler will love Splashaway Bay and Captain Jill's Galleon, both of which are free.  

When you bring the grandparents, there's a more compelling argument for a cabana, but once again, you don't need to spend extra to have a great time there.

What is Perfect Day at CocoCay: What you should expect at Royal Caribbean's island

This is the one I use. Just bought a few for my family: https://amzn.to/3Zlnm7P

The key is it cannot have more than 1 AC outlet. It can have as many USB outlets as you want.

Yes, it's me. And that is my group.  

I started the group eons ago, but it's taken a life of its own.

You can even find the same mods from here over there. Be nice to them there too!

I know the Pub makes them

Why is the children’s beverage package price the same as an adults package price? I have two small kids who’ll want some chocolate milk or juice or an occasional smoothe from the vitality spa, electrolytes etc, but they are small kids and dont consume as much as an adult. Am I reading the prices correctly? Thanks. 

It sounds like your kids would be better off paying for each drink individually rather than getting a drink package. Drink packages really only make sense if you're going to order 4-5 drinks per day

If you're a US citizen and sailing round trip from the same US port, then yes.

Works for me

What you should do instead is work with the wedding department coordinator to handle such requests.  They might be able to get a private room somewhere, like a conference room.

Does anyone have an idea of when Royal will start to sell tickets to the beach club in the Bahamas?  Or how much I should expect to spend on them?  Thanks in advance, have a wonderful rest of your day!

Not yet is the answer to all your questions

I would use Uber for sure but that is because I do not like the inconvenience of having to wait on others with a shuttle service

 

Me too

From what I've heard, opening will be in second half of December 2025

Welcome to the message boards!

The rule is there cannot be more than one A/C plug. The amount of USB outlets is irrelevant.

This is my favorite travel adapter: https://amzn.to/3XEvLCx (contains an affiliate link that costs you nothing extra to use)

Welcome to the message boards.

There isn't a definitive time specialty restaurant reservations open up.  It's usually at least 6 months in advance, but if you're a year away or more, I'd say you just have to keep checking back.

Correct, you just need to have a YT account (free) to join in and chat.

Royal Caribbean app, right?

Did you do the step where you connect to the wifi and it asks you for two choices: Connect to a Voom package or just use the Royal Caribbean app?

It sounds like maybe your device needs to re-do that step?

Definitely a strange bug

Generally speaking, the rule is if it's not factory sealed, then no, it's not allowed.

As an example, you cant bring cookies you baked at home.

Not sure if you meant you'd like to bring a bag of nuts, a bag of crackers, et al. OR you meant a bag with all nuts and crackers together in a zip lock bag.  But to be safe, I'd buy something from the store.

IMO, you really don't need to exchange currency.

Everyone takes credit cards, and the credit card will do a good job at giving you a great exchange rate. Plus, there's no risk of leftover currency you don't want/need.
