[George Takei voice] Oh myyyyyy! 340, here I come. Thanks for the confirmation -

I really hope I'm interpreting this promo correctly. Normally, 7 nights solo in a suite is: 7 base points 7 points for being in a suite 7 points for being solo --- = 21 points --- So, 42 points with this promo? If so, holy smokes. I've got 2 cruises lined-up that would qualify (assuming mid-to-late 2021 isn't still tanked). -

I'm absolutely "banking" all of the funds I would have spent this year on cruises and other relaxing vacation time. Presuming we're in better shape in 2021 (vaccine, et al), I'm going to absolutely have some blow-out time off. 2020 has sucked (you may have noticed ) and I'm going to definitely splurge to make up for it when I can.

Curious if anyone can shed some insight / experience with using them. Definitely piqued my interest. -
Deluxe Beverage Package on Radiance.
mk-ultra replied to Eaglelover's topic in Royal Caribbean Dining
My 5/9/21 (hope) Oasis DBP dropped from $61 to $46 per day, which is the best I've seen in a long while. I cancelled and re-purchased and today it's back to $61. Strike while the iron's hot -

Cape Liberty (Elizabeth) NJ Restaurant Recommendations?
mk-ultra replied to mk-ultra's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
LOL. An IHOP Swedish crepe combo is one of my secret guilty pleasures. -
I'm booked on the Oasis out of Cape Liberty in May 2021. Magic 8 balls says: "who the hell knows?" when asked if we'll have a vaccine generally available by then. So, putting on my hopeful optimist's cap... assuming this thing actually sails: Anyone got restaurant recommendations? I'll be staying (again, optimist) at the Courtyard in Elizabeth, NJ. It looks like there is are a bunch of Portuguese and Spanish restaurants nearby that look enticing.

Terrible phone representative service
mk-ultra replied to p cusack's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
LOL. I call this "dialing for yes." If I get an obviously clueless CSR or next-level-up, I'll thank them for their time and call back and roll the dice again. FWIW: I've found the Casino Royale reps to be pretty on top of their game. Call usually answered in under 2 minutes and I usually get a very competent person on the other end of the line. I don't know if my CR status confers any extra consideration, but my default is to always call the Casino Royale # first since they've always done a good job at handling requests. -

Coastal Kitchen and Suite Lounge Beverages
mk-ultra replied to jagnew's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I am ridiculously addicted to the deck 17 L1 lofts on Oasis class ships. I love being so close to CK & the SL... and it just being a short waltz down the stairs to Windjammer or the pool deck. I really enjoy reading in the SL when I've had enough of the poolside action and would just like a quiet moment, and the food in CK (at least by my experience) has been great. That said, I'm solo in the Oasis Ultimate Panoramic Suite in 2022. I'm rolling the dice to see if the genuinely unique cabin, view and Star Class make up for the lack of a balcony. I like my balconies! -
As a side note, despite the warning that my "credit may not immediately appear on my SeaPass folio" on the first day of my cruise, the $100 OBC for both my Royal and Celebrity cruises showed up in my planner immediately. It's always shown up prior to my cruise, right after they acknowledged granting it. That doesn't seem to have changed despite the new caveat.

Just emailed [email protected] with my latest eTrade statement for a Royal Caribbean cruise 5/9/21 and and Celebrity cruise 12/11/21 and received my shareholder OBC within 4 hours for both.

I believe you're referring to this: https://cruiseradio.net/the-unexpected-perk-norwegian-is-giving-cancelled-cruisers/ Doug & Richard are usually good sources of information, but until NCL themselves says this is in fact their new policy I'd take it with a huge grain of salt. Cruise cancellations are a huge cluster right now on the IT side, and plenty of folks on other cruise line forums like Princess and Carnival have said the same thing. Points for a cancelled cruise posted to their loyalty account at the end of the planned (but not sailed) cruise, only to be clawed-back lat

If you don't mind me asking, did you get crazy-good pricing on the Ultimate Panoramic Suite? I booked the exact same suite for an Oasis April 2022 cruise the same day they released it for booking. The price on this Star Class cabin was ~$100 more than an L1 Sky Class loft, which was insanely good. Now the price seems comparable to any other Star Class cabin.

AMEX Platinum Cruise Privileges Program
mk-ultra replied to ryman1980's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Just popping in to add one additional tip. If you have both a personal AMEX Platinum and an AMEX corporate card for work, call AMEX and tell them you'd like to join their "Corporate Advantage" program. You'll still pay the $550 annual fee on your personal card, but within 60 days they'll credit $150 back to you, knocking it down to $400 a year. -
