The Specialty Dining Discount is for Elite Plus not Elite. All of the others appear to be correct. I have attached their tier club benefits chart. captains-club-tiers-and-benefits-chart.pdf

So disappointed, we are scheduled to be in Nassau on the 26th of December! We miss it by ONE day.

It is now working for me too. Very odd.

Using inprivate Edge browser and Royal Caribbean website says it does not support secure browsers. I can no longer blind book to check prices!

Everything will be booked through Newark!

On our Serenade of the Seas Sep/Oct 2026 B2B2B cruises there are 3 set times for Main Dining: 5:00, 6:30, and 8:00. My time dining starts at 7:00 now. We like dining around 6:30 so this is perfect for us.

We are booked on a B2B2B 5 night, 2 night, 7 night cruise. I know we get 5 drinks every day, a bag of laundry on the 5 night and 7 night cruises, 2 free days of internet on all 3 cruises. My biggest question is the BOGO specialty dinners. Do we each (hubby and me) get BOGO specialty dinners on all 3 cruises or just on the 5 night and 7 night cruises?

They do have a Non-Alcoholic Drink Package Overview Refresh with a selection of premium bottled water, including Evian, Perrier, San Pellegrino, Acqua Panna, and Vitamin Water. Indulge with specialty coffees, organic teas, bottled iced teas, fresh juices from The Spa Café, frozen smoothies, soda selections, Red Bull, and a variety of non-alcoholic cocktails that are sure to quench your thirst.

If you are booked check out your cruise planner. Our October cruise had a great deal on the premium drink package at $47.99 per person plus gratuities. Basically 4 to 5 drinks a day pays for the package. Our December cruise did not offer such a good deal though.

Looks like the last fairly secure area in Mexico is now experiencing drug cartel activity. Those on a cruise to Cabo or La Paz be careful and aware of your surroundings. Location: Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo, and La Paz, BCS Event:  Local media and social media report an emerging security situation in Baja California Sur. Reports include a shootout that spread through several neighborhoods in Cabo San Lucas in the early hours of April 25, three buses set on fire in La Paz and Los Cabos on April 24, the killing of a law enforcement officer and three other homicides on April 22, and the posting of threats against officials by cartels. Expect to see increased security presence, public transportation restrictions, and other actions to manage the situation. Actions to Take:  Avoid crowds and watch for signs of disturbance If you are in a public place where the situation changes quickly, leave the area or seek secure shelter Monitor local media for updates and follow instructions from local authorities Be aware of your surroundings Notify friends and family of your safety

We have friends who were in Roatan on the 15th of March and posted pictures of themselves with monkeys and sloths. So Roatan was allowing this on Saturday. They are on Jewel of the Seas.

Don't you mean you need a cruise?

We broke down and booked a b2b2b on Serenade starting 27 Sep 2026 5 nights out of Vancouver to San Diego, San Diego 2 nights to Ensenada and back, then 7 nights San Diego to Cabo and La Paz and back to San Diego. Total 14 nights. Our first b2b2b and ending where our cruising friends live as well as our kids.

The closest they have is February 28 to March 7 leaving on a Sunday.

The prices are outrageous! Whatever happened to starting with a deal and then raising the prices later!

So hoping Serenade is out of San Diego! We lived there for nearly 30 years. Our kids and their families are still there and the friends we always cruise with are there. It would be perfect for us! We also love the Radiance class ships. WIN-WIN!

I know. I was responding to the first post asking about possibilities. As far as I am concerned until Cuba is free there should be no cruises. I am friends with several people whose families came from Cuba.

The Trump administration has reinstated the sanctions so no cruises to Cuba.

When in doubt just pay the extra $10 for a passport card in addition to your passport when you renew. The passport card can be used domestically and at land border crossings.

We have been to Roatan a couple of times on an RCL cruise. The port has some nice shops and restaurants so you don't have to leave that area if you do not want to. Also, RCL offers some excursions and they vet the tour operators so if you want to go outside the port area you can take one of those and feel safe.

We bought these in 2016 and have used them on every cruise since then. We carry on the wine in our back packs. Amazon.com: Wine Safeguard Reusable Bottle Protector2-Pack : Home & Kitchen

We have substituted the Chop's crab cakes for the raw scallops in the past. Just told them that we don't eat under cooked (raw) proteins. You can ask what can be substituted when you are there. Personally, we have been to Chef's table many times and the last time was in 2019 when this menu was introduced fleet wide. Before that time it truly was the CHEF'S TABLE his choice and we had fabulous meals. We do not like this menu and the chefs seem to be unenthused about being directed as to what to prepare so we haven't been back in 5 years. Still waiting for an upgrade to the menu.

Does anyone know a different number other than 800-526-9723? I called that number to get my amenity selection for Diamond Plus and after a series of say yes or no I got a normal Royal reservation person. I was on the phone with him for over 30 minutes and on hold 6 times until he said he was still trying to get in touch with the loyalty department! He couldn't even transfer me. I still have not selected my amenity!
