7 days freedom of the seas is the ship too small?

Cruising from Galveston-need hotel recommendations
stevendom57 replied to Kdwilly's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I like to stay in Webster or Clear lake. My go to hotel is Hilton Houston Nasa Clear Lake. Take an Uber to Galveston. -
Of course the Panama Canal. But I am nervous too. I am a big ship kinda guy. The smallest RC ship I have been on is Mariner OTS. The very smallest was the Celesyial Olympia (which is the old RC Song of America). There are going to be lots of sea days without an Oasis class set of entertainments. We'll see.
-
It seems that some ships are having a difficult time getting slots to transit the canal. This is due to low water levels in Gatun Lake. I know that Rhapsody OTS, while it starts in Colon, no longer does even a partial transit. Does anyone out there have a crystal ball to forsee any issues with our cruise?

We are Steven and Moselle from Austin, TX. What hotel did you pick? We are staying at the The Westin Tampa Waterside. Does anyone have any comments about this hotel? My wife wants to know if anyone out there plays mah jongg. There are going to be be a lot of sea days and if I can't find anyone that plays I am going to have to learn. HELP!!! Steven

allure returns in 2026 All Things Galveston
stevendom57 replied to Galveston Steve's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I would recommend getting a hotel in Webster or Clear Lake (I like the Hilton Houston NASA Clear Lake) and Uber to Galveston. Galveston hotels are very pricey and when I was looking they required a 2 night stay on nights before a cruise was to leave.- 965 replies

Entertainers on board – Who are your Favorites?
stevendom57 replied to Kurtp13's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
A few weeks ago we were on Allure OTS. The Schooner Bar had a young guy, Louis Couch, on the piano. He was a great entertainer and a really nice guy. -
T-Mobile Service on a Cruise
stevendom57 replied to PG Cruiser's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I have T-Mobile and like it. I agree and can verify everything that you said. But I didn't know about the free wifi on flights. How do I access this? -
As a followup. My checked bag, with wine, arrived in my room and I did not need to go to the naughty room. It arrived an hour or so after my wife's, so I think it may have undergone extra scrutiny. Anyway, it got there.

Do they actually cook the BBQ onboard?

For a while I was playing the MyVegas slots on my computer to earn points for a free cruise. After a while I realized that the points required for a free cruise was growing faster than I could earn points in the game. So, now I have a lot of points, but not enough for a cruise. I have plenty for some OBC, though. Can I redeem and add this OBC to an existing cruise or must I book the cruise with the points initially? TIA Steven

Mahjong games/lessons available on Spectrum?
stevendom57 replied to SJay's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
My wife is addicted to mahjongg, but the American version of the game. We have been on five cruises and have never seen a mahjongg set onboard. I think there are several reasons, first they are not cheap like a deck of cards and there are a lot of fairly small pieces that can be lost, rendering the set useless. My wife has bought a travel set and brings it with her on cruises in the hope that she meets someone that wants to play. It is not possible to post something like "I am in cabin 13456, if you want to play mahjongg knock on my door" due to security concerns. That is a major problem. She has posted something in the card room like "meet here at 3pm", but no one has ever shown up. Once she met a group that wanted to play, but she soon found out that Chinese mahjongg and American mahjongg are similar but different enough to cause major problems. We have another cruise coming up and I am sure that she will bring her set. I hope she meets someone that wants to play. -
Made to Order Omelets on Allure?
stevendom57 replied to stevendom57's topic in Royal Caribbean Dining
Never mind. This was already discussed in another message https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/boards/index.php?/topic/38224-windjammer-omelet-station -
I heard a rumor that there are no longer made to order omelets on Allure. Surely this is incorrect. Do they still have them?

Except that RC clearly states "CBD Oil / CBD Products" are prohibited. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/prohibited-items-onboard-policy
