There's nothing to report, per se. When you get to the terminal and they ask where the other person is, you just say, "not here". That's it.

Probably, but again, you're breaking the rules. They have cameras, bar supervisors, etc.

Agreed, it's an old cruise tradition that can go away IMO.

The best way to book a Royal Caribbean cruise, explained

The reason to do one-way car rentals should be because you want a car to get around to go somewhere beyond airport, hotel, and cruise terminal. That or you got a heck of a good deal. First thing to do is use the Lyft fare estimator to figure out roughly what that would cost you. Open the lyft app and use the addresses of each to figure it out. The ideal scenario with a car rental is you'll go see a tourist site, go out to dinner somewhere, or otherwise utilize the car. This is especially helpful if you're flying in early and have a day to spend in the area.

The surface lot at Terminal 18 is fantastic. Tampa's valet parking arguably even better, but for a big ship terminal, it doesn't get better than T18 for self parking.

It doesn't matter. The advertised promos are just window dressing, and the actual price you pay is what to pay attention to. Meaning, the advertised discount can be ignored. Periodically check if the bottom line price has actually changed.

Welcome to the message boards. That is correct, a child still in diapers cannot go in any pool other than the baby splash zone. You're obviously free to hang out elsewhere, but the kid can only go in the baby splash zone.

It's not included at a Starbucks kiosk, but is included at Cafe Promenade

Good to see it back!

Yes, I've done it many times. There's no penalty, but Royal no longer gives you double Crown and Anchor points if you cruise solo with a no-show.

We first saw this earlier this year: While I don't qualify for a senior discount, I did see a "balcony cabin sale" and a "diamond and above sale" todayy

Yes, they offered it in 2020: https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2020/09/29/royal-caribbean-will-offer-kids-sail-free-during-summer-first-time

I don't know if it's related to the sale or not, but the price for CocoCay cabanas for my Mariner of the Seas Jan 1 cruise fell to pre-pandemic prices
