I don't pay that close attention to the photo packages, but I always thought lowest price for them was pre-booking. Not saying I'm 100% certain on that

We roll the opposite way. Love first formal night, skip second

I prefer the over the water cabanas because they provide more privacy. Also, their views are better (in my opinion). Granted, the over the water cabanas cost more money.

I would go to the spa and ask them what exactly you get for that price. I'm purely curious what that includes, because I'd assume it has to be something amazing.

Thank you for sharing your review!

YOLO Book it!

I always tell my wife that I have a reputation to uphold

Do me a favor and email me and I can definitely help you out. [email protected] I feel like there might be some miscommunication and I apologize for that.

In the case of this question, it came direct from Royal Caribbean when I wrote it up.

As an owner of a GoPro, I have always felt it's a bit overrated. It's nice to have, but cumbersome to use and not as practical as you might think.

I've heard of people going to Anguilla, but never done it myself.

If traditional dining isn't open, not sure what the expectation is. From experience, I never worry about not being able to get into the traditional dining rotation I want. It's a mere formality to make that happen, either between wait lists or the head waiter strategy I outlined above.

Interesting. My first suggestion was going to be to clear your browser's cache and cookies, but if you have done it across 3 browsers it appears that may not be the issue. Just for fun, try this: Open Google Chrome. In Windows, hit CTRL SHIFT N (that should open what's known as an incognito window) In Mac, hit Command SHIFT N Try logging in

I will add my two cents. The number one reason to book with the group is to support Royal Caribbean Blog. Supporting our sponsors in turn supports the blog and it gives our group as a whole more "buying power" with RC. While you are right that a majority of events are still open, I will use Allure of the Seas as an example. On that group cruise, folks in the group received Free lunch at Sabor $100 onboard credit Goody bag in their stateroom

Are you talking about solo staterooms or virtual balcony rooms? They are two different things. Also, any room available through RC's site can be rolled into the group.

Can you drink 5-7 drinks per day, every day of your cruise? The answer to that question is quite often the determination if the drink package makes sense for you.

Welcome Edwards family! Welcome to the boards!

Hi Kim! The cabanas face the opposite direction of the zip line, and there are trees in the way anyhow. If it were me, I'd do the zip line first and then enjoy the rest of the day at the cabana.

Definitely total cost, so only book 1 for your group. Water will be great. I have been in early Feb and definitely warm enough for swimming.

Empress is in Miami

Hi Gina! My top 3 are: 1. Small outlet extender 2. Camera bag (with assorted goodies in there) 3. Sunglasses and a hat

Hi Laura! If it were me, I'd skip the JS under the pool area. Probably an overreaction, but better safe than sorry. Please let me know if you do not hear back. Hoping you will be joining us!

I don't believe that for a second. Make sure you or your TA adds you to the waiting list for the dining rotation you would like. If all else fails, go to MDR on embarkation day and speak to head waiter. They will be able to place you in the dining rotation of your choice.

I fixed his link. There were some spaces there
