Not sure why passports aren't in same category as wallet, credit cards, cash or children in terms of their "vulnerability" to be stolen. No different.
To answer @Peter2 question more directly, after I get into the room on day one, I put my keys, wallet and passport in the safe. I take the passports with me on excursions, like I do with cash.

Moving this to the News and Rumors forum...

I know this is making it in there as @Matt is an early arriver..but it is absolutely my #1 tip for everyone.  We are fortunate that Royal doesn't make us adhere to the assigned boarding times like some of the other cruise lines do.  Take advantage of that always!

Thanks for the response, Matt! 

Those choices can no longer be made online. You will need to call C&A to have provide that information. Courtesy of the website upgrade.

Most sailing, if I remember, I'll set a message on my lock screen...

Another thought would be to provide a number to call in the Emergency Contact/Number section. One thing I did notice was if my phone was in Airplane mode it wouldn't let me out of airplane mode with authentication. This would prevent any contacts from being called. Work around could be providing a number as a name of a contact.

@Trey 6 am to 10 pm, this is based off of a 4 day sailing i looked up on the latest cruise compass.

1. Arrive to the port early. You are paying for your day 1 and the sooner you get on the ship, the sooner you can start your vacation.
2. Bring a USB port outlet for more charging space. Do not confuse this with a surge protector, since it most likely will be confiscated.
3. Be friendly to the crew and chat with them. Room stewards, for instance, enjoy when we have conversations with them because their jobs are very repetitive and have to clean up after us. It can really make someone's day.
 

CocoCay dock is designed to handle two ships. That doesn't mean two Oasis Class ships, and it doesn't mean there will be two ships there every day.
After seeing CocoCay in its current state with "just" the beach and Oasis Lagoon pool, it handled the crowds extremely well. To the point there is ample seating all around. Now imagine when they add the water park, Beach Club and other offerings to further spread crowds out. I have zero concern about an additional ship in port from a crowd perspective.

@Neesa According to the schedule, just Harmony: http://ports.cruisett.com/schedule/Bahamas/138-Cococay/November_2019/

Here's an interlude for you: 
 

I'm so not totally jealous of @SuperNinja at all. Totally fine not being there.

I have no reason to believe it will be cancelled.
In fact, they just told Cruise Critic the other day things are looking great

The short answer is I don't know if they offer Friends trivia on Anthem. 
In my experience, the trivia offerings change up now and then. Best you can do is consult a past Cruise Compass and hope for the best!

now, for the real announcement...really...the 2020 President’s Cruise will be to...
”Just because you vote, it doesn’t mean we are going to do it...”
-Michael Bayley
“We have five options for you  some are pretty crappy because we want to steer you a certain way...”
-Michael Bayler
option 1 — 2 day Empress repositioning (toilets will be flushing)
option 2 — 30 day MSC Cruise with 29 sea days
option 3 — 7 night Ovation Alaska (Aug 7) — “Empress is still winning.” - Michael Bayley — good crowd response
option 4 — 7 night Oasis from NYC (August 4) 
option 5 — 7 night Allure Mediterranean (after amplification) — good crowd response 
Coin Toss by Super Mario — Allure of the Seas Mediterranean in August (I believe)
California itineraries — “maybe” in 2021 — no commitment
 
Michael Bayley is a hoot, btw...

Man ain't that the truth! I for fun decided to price out a Disney cruise out of NY when one of the ships comes up here because I have a 6 year old. I almost fainted! I mock booked a regular balcony which is normally what we book on Royal Caribbean but you was about triple the cost. Yes triple! I think an inside cabin was still more than a balcony I usually book on Royal Caribbean. I was blown away. 

Absolutely!  Totally agree

Yup! https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/event/royalcaribbeanblogcom-cruise-aboard-brilliance-of-the-seas
