Just repriced my 10 October cruise and they submitted the form for a second price adjustment after final payment. I have to check back in 14 business days to verify it was approved. We will go from $445 in OBC from last adjustment to $966 in OBC for this one. Once again check your fare price regularly!

Does this mean that Liberty of the Seas is starting her TA today?

there is a forum that has lots of information about sailing from Galveston.

Here is a link to Royal Caribbean FAQs about Covid testing requirements for each port. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/will-i-have-to-take-a-test-before-i-cruise

I called on the 22nd of July and was told that the OBC would show up in 24 hours. It did not show in cruise planner. I finally called today (29 July) and was told that it would not show up in the cruise planner but would be added to my sea pass card when we board the ship. I was also told that if we do not use all of the OBC that our credit card would be credited the unused amount. So you may not see the OBC from after final payment fare drop in your cruise planner.

I did a "ghost" cruise on line to check the price and when I saw the change I just called. I booked the cruise on line so I was able to call them directly and request the OBC through the cruise with confidence program. If you used a TA you will need to have them call.

Even though it is after final payment I checked my fare price for the October cruise. The price had dropped so I called and got $445 in on board credit through the cruise with confidence program. So check your prices regularly.

Liberty in October switched from Grand Cayman and Falmouth to Costa Maya and Roatan. Your Liberty cruise will probably do the same. I would bet that the Liberty cruise will sail in December if ours sails in October.

When are your cruises? I have a cruise in October and have not received one of these emails.

Falmouth Jamaica. The port area is nice but do not go out into Falmouth on your own!

We have been on Voyager, Vision, Oasis, Radiance, and Quantum classes as well as Majesty of the Seas (miss that ship). We are booked for a Freedom class in October. Of all of the ones we have sailed on I didn't like the Quantum class and probably will avoid it if I can find that particular itinerary on another class. If not then I would gladly sail that class.

Thank you for finding these. I hope Texas will continue to try to be a part of the final solution.

Oh and I would never get a drink at the bionic bar. Went on an 11 day cruise with the bionic bar, thought about it the first day but it was over crowded. After the first day it was empty so decided it must not be worth it.

We met someone about 8 years ago who only packed a carryon for a 11 day cruise. He and his wife always asked for robes the first day and that is all they would wear the rest of the cruise. We did see him talking to someone just off of the cruise ship in one port with only a robe on. WOW. His name was Todd and we call him "The Todd" to this day.

Alaska filed to join around 20 April and Texas filed to join in early May. https://headlineusa.com/texas-fla-alaska-sue-cdc-for-keeping-the-cruise-industry-shut-down/

Texas and Alaska joined the lawsuit so this may affect them also.

There are actually 21 judges - 12 appointed by R presidents and 9 appointed by D presidents 1 - Ford 1 - Reagan 3 - G H W Bush 1 - G W Bush - William H Pryor is the chief justice and was on Trump's short list for SCOTUS 6 - Trump 1 - Carter 3 - Clinton 5 - Obama https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Court_of_Appeals_for_the_Eleventh_Circuit The court has twelve seats for active judges, numbered in the order in which they were initially filled. Judges who assume senior status enter a kind of retirement in which they remain on the bench, while vacating their seats, thus allowing the president to appoint new judges to fill their seats.

thank you.

I have a question about the UDP. The main dining room offers some steaks and lobster for an up charge would these items be included in the UDP?

Actually the rules are worse than those in prisons. For crew that work in areas without windows to be confined to their windowless cabin when not working is worse than being in a prison.

So sorry you had to cancel the greenland iceland cruise. I am glad that you were able to get all of your money back.

It took 20 days after we got our itemized cruise planner cancellation email so you should be getting that refund within the next week if that time frame holds.

We got the last of our refund this morning. We have received all of it including on board and shore excursions. It only took a total of 52 days from the time that our cruise was cancelled.

We got our refund today. Well most of it. The way they sent it to the credit card company make no sense at all. The only amount that matches anything is taxes and fees and that amount showed up 6 times. Very weird. We are missing about $650 out of $8800 so I guess I will finally have to call to find out what is going on.
