Psycho and Barb

AWESOME!!! We really appreciate you taking the time and effort to post them!!

Thank you so much for the information. We will be on the 21st and 28th sailing and can’t wait. We have been to the https://1link.travelsafe.pr.gov and filled out our paperwork and got the our bar code. Is the travel declaration you referred to? Is the airport your local airport or the San Juan airport? Really appreciate your help.

Anyone sailed on the first sailing of Explorer of the Seas? We are interested in how the cruise went and details of the check-in procedures. Any details would be greatly appreciated.

We got the same notification AA. We went and downloaded the app and also didn't like the photo part...We had to take the picture then and had no option to use a saved photo. Also didn't see the need to add personnel details to an app...Deleted the app.

We also declare everything but we don't list quantity purchased...We list dollar amount spent.

DD Form 215 is just corrected copies of the DD Form-214. It should still have the important information on it like years served and discharge status.

Sometimes we get the military discount and sometimes we don't. Our our TA knows we are retired Military and will check each cruise we book to see if he can apply it but most of the time, he can't and we get better deals with other promotions. Psycho served 28 years and keeps a copy of his DD Form 214 in his passport.

If I remember right if was only about 8 bucks for six bottles of Crown Royal

We use to be able to sign the waviers while doing our checkin on the Royal site

We have purchased alcohol lots of times and exceeded our customs limit. We always declare it to customs but have only been charged duty one time…It was still was cheaper then buying in the US. All the other times the customs agent just looked at our paperwork and let us proceed. We were told one time by as Customs Agent that as long as we declare it and not try to hide it…It was up to the agent on if they wanted to charge a duty.

We did our Puerto Rico Travel Docs yesterday. They only wanted our flight number. But, they also wanted to know where we were staying and for how long...We entered the Pier address and listed Royal Caribbean as our host...Didn't see any other option's. Hope we did it right.

We are also trying to figure that out. We are flying in a day before our cruise and trying to nail down our requirements. Lets keep each other posted on what we find out.

Our check-in opened up this weekend...That's always a good sign!!!

Our B2B 21 Nov 2021 sailing on the Explore of the Seas registration opened up yesterday. Started in on Royals web site and uploaded pictures of our Covid cards on the app. Didn’t see anything on any restrictions.

We’ve found the best way is with the ships Voom. We can send, receive texts just by using our phones texting app…Do FaceTime and even make actual calls. We can do just about anything on the ship that we can at home on our WiFi.
