Are you there from 7am-9pm or is it the short day from 12pm-6pm or 12-9pm?

I personally wouldn't want to chance Universal or Disney. Like you said already, it's about 2hrs gone round trip and what if there is traffic? That route from PC to Orlando can sometimes get backed up. I always feel like Orlando should be a trip in itself. I remember reading a really good live blog back in February and they went to Magic Kingdom. Even though they did not run into traffic, they still reported that it was rushed and they didn't get to do all the things they wanted to. And they were docked all day. I suppose if you've been to the parks before and you had a short list of things to do then it would be ok but otherwise it would be hard to fit in.

Since it is an official RCL excursion, there is no danger in getting back - right?

I cannot answer but I will be on the Anthem too! I have an Universal Annual Pass so we are going to a Universal for the day. I am hoping someone has experience with this!

Well, almost a month later and I still don't have half the options working. No countdown clock, etc. Hmmmm

I received an email today that all my issues were fixed. I first contacted them on a March 9th. My “reservation is not associated with your name”.... still. Nope, still not fixed.

On the contrary - I prepare for the increased opportunities to eat by upping my caloric intake leading up to the trip. Stretch the stomach a little ahead of time so that it doesn't rebel at the sudden significant increase in volume.

You are a genius. I have been dieting to be at the proper size when I go and buy a whole new wardrobe exactly 8 days before my cruise. I have a plan.

Has the Anthem increase been confirmed?

Just saw on another board that room service has increased from $7.95 to $9.95?! Is there any truth to this? This was posted today by someone doing a live blog on Anthem.

Thank you for this post. I was expecting the lower charge. Now I will not be surprised!

The only thing that concerns me is that they still do not recognize my old crown and anchor number. It's dumb but I want to make sure we're not missing out on those sweet sweet loyalty points. A working history of past cruises would be nice too. I might shoot an email to that group listed in the letter.

I wrote an email and received a reply that they would be back in touch 48-72 hours later. One week later, I replied and asked then for an update. Today, they replied to that. They told me my reservation needed to be 7 digits and if I sent that to them or any loyalty number they could work with me.

I am done with this. My response pointed out that my 7 digit reservation number and my crown and anchor number ( both not recognized) were included in my email- please look below. 

Thanks to everyone here that pointed me in me in the direction of all the “work arounds”.

Here are the dining options from the Port Canaveral day from Anthem two weeks ago:

 

Thanks, that is what a I have been seeing. My dining time is 8:15 and we are scheduled to return at 8:30. I don’t see us making it to anywhere by 9:00. Did I see that Brass and Bock has some food?

We have booked transfers to Universal Studios in a few weeks. We are scheduled to return to Anthem of the Sea after our 8:15 dining time . I am wondering what our dining options will be? Suggestions?

Millie has provided an update on the Facebook page.

 

I find this very interesting. Email responses said they would address issues within 48-72 hours. Almost 96 hours since I received that one and only response.

Good luck with that.  I'm into 96 hrs and still nothing.

Did they respond to you again? Have they fixed your issue?

If anyone is keeping track: 26 hours after I sent my email (to the address posted in the letter), I received a reply. The reply confirmed they received my email and would be looking at my issue in 48 to 72 hours.

Thanks. Did it work for you, hopefully?

Not yet! It is not recognizing my crown and anchor number either. On March 9th I went through Twitter. I was messaged that they would connect me. They asked my reservation number and told me to “hold on”. I am still holding....

Still not working for me.....I guess I'm not worthy. Tried clearing the cache, nothing, went incognito, nothing. I keep getting the "Invalid password and user name combination" and the hell of it is, I haven't changed anything. 

OK I"M IN!!!!! Since I kept getting the "invalid password etc stuff", I hit the forgot password and changed it. Now it works!

Congrats! I decided to try that email address.

Great, glad it worked for you! Yes, upload your photos, will expedite your getting on board the ship. Once you complete your online check in you should be able to print off your set sail passes. The cruise documentation (which includes your luggage tags) may not be ready to print off for a couple more days. I strongly recommend these luggage tag holders from Amazon.com: https://www.amazon.com/Cruise-Luggage-Holder-Seal-Steel/dp/B01E4SQNU4/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1521395377&sr=8-6&keywords=cruise+ship+luggage+tags I have used mine on a couple of cruises and they work great. Inexpensive also. There are a lot of other folks on this blog who use them also. Time to dust offfyour luggage! 

I saw that recommendation on another thread! I have those luggage tag holders sitting in my bag all ready to go!

Were you able to login with that link I posted for you yesterday? 

Yes! I can see my cruise that way! I am waiting for my TA to return tomorrow to see if maybe she has my documents going to her? I am traveling with my son and his girlfriend so I have them coming to my work this week to complete online check in. We do need to upload photos- right? I am hoping the link you shared with me ( which I will admit has stopped my tears) still works! 27 days!

Good progress today

The cruise planner is now working properly. When you logon to your account and select the cruise planner it takes you in straight away without having to enter your reservation number.

Another day, another”we are unable to locate this reservation or name” ?

I would think so.

That was was I was afraid of- thanks.

I agree with you. Here's a link that will get you where you can log in with your username and password: https://secure.royalcaribbean.com/mycruises/processLogin.do. You should be able to do the  on line register and print off your documents. We embark on 3/25, fortunately, I did the on line registration and document  weeks ago before this shi* storm happened. 

Is it unusual that I do not have any documents to print 28 days before a cruise?

Is it me or can anyone else here log into the "new seamless" RCI website? 

I am beginning to think I must have lost my mind. Exactly 4 weeks from today I am leaving on my cruise. Every day I log in and it tells me it cannot find my name or reservation number. Every time I log in I hopevmy reservation will magically appear- silly isn’t it?

14-April from Barcelona 

Thanks, mine is the 14th too but Cape Liberty.

Try this one, just plug in your username & password, hopefully it will work for you: https://secure.royalcaribbean.com/mycruises/processLogin.do 

Thank you, this time it worked! It was bringing me to my log in page earlier but would not click through.

Are there other people who still cannot access their upcoming cruises? I am 30 days away and now the other older links no longer work. I am getting so very, very discouraged.

got an email few hours ago that my cruise document is ready and a link to download it.

The link brings me to the new login page and from there I do no have any clue how to get to it , any idea ? 

(I tried also to do online check in but got error message) 

When is your cruise?

Can I ask about the rock climbing? Do you sign up for it or do you just line up}
