Glad this was a great spot for you too!

As I recall, you can sign it in your cabin via the TV. It's part of the booking system, with a separate tab for waivers.

These are great questions, but I'm afraid I don't know the answers to them. I suspect nearly all of these questions will be answered primarily from the Concierge onboard. He/she can coordinate things like a bridge tour or cocktail party. I strongly suspect the options available, costs, and other details may even vary from ship to ship.

I'm sorry to hear of this. My wife goes to the spa onboard usually once per cruise and enjoys it immensely. I'm not sure what can be done at this point other than disputing the credit card charges. You could contact Steiner, who is the company that staffs the Vitality Spa. https://www.steinerleisure.com/main/Contactus.aspx In the future, at the conclusion of any spa treatment, you should get a receipt. That is when you need to ensure the charges match up with what you expect. Moreover, review your SeaPass charges regularly, and ideally, before the last evening of the cruise.

That will be more than adequate.

My understanding is the primary difference is what you are looking for in terms of things to do. If you just want to lounge by the beach or pool, Nachi is the place. If you want more activities (like the aqua park stuff), then Mr Sanchos is for you.

In the Windjammer you should find plenty of low carb choices around. In the MDR, you might consider speaking to the head waiter on day one to arrange some dishes that are low carb. Many are inherently low-carb (like there is always a chicken, beef and/or fish dish on the menu and veggies usually accompany them).

You could do that, but after dropping luggage off, take the subway back to Manhattan. Far more affordable option than a taxi. My only other thought was to drop luggage off at a hotel in Manhattan and tip the bellman to hold it.

My approach to Maho Beach

It seems Freedom is the only Freedom Class ship without these swings. During the last refurb, they replaced H2O Zone with Splashaway Bay. It was a test for a similar Splashaway Bay that was being added to Harmony.

I'm considering going there next month. I'd like to compare it to Nachi Cocoum in Cozumel.

If you are within 60 days of booking the cruise, you can still roll your reservation to a travel agent. Our site's travel agent sponsor is MEI Travel. At that point, they can handle this for you. If you are not past final payment, you should be able to take advantage of the new price by rebooking.

Yes, menu is same across all main dining rooms. The Continental Breakfast option on Room Service menu is the only one that is complimentary. You can also go down to Cafe Promenade and grab a cup and bring it back. That gratuity covers...

My thoughts exactly!

Thank you! I think it's worth going to see one plane land, but I cannot imagine being there all day (or going back again).

Sorry to hear about your confusion. It sounds like you thought you were booking a regular room, but you were in fact getting a guarantee room. Couple bits of advice I can offer. First, a guarantee room is not bad option. I've done it many times with good results. Also, once they assign you a room, you can move to another room in the same category if there are any others available. Second, use a travel agent instead of calling direct. A travel agent can help mitigate miscommunication from RC, and generally make your life easier.

Is your question when will it become available to book pre-cruise things OR how early should you actually start making reservations for things?

Okay, that is funny!

Yes, by default RC serves powdered eggs across the ship, unless you get something like an omelet
