40 days out on Oasis and entertainment is open and I am all booked now.

Entertainment open and all booked.

always on the website cruise planner

I had bone spurs in my heel and after a year of babying it, it finally tore through the tendon while I was walking in a flat parking lot. Had a surgery where they cut the tendon that runs under the foot and attached that to the achilles and pulled it back down and secured with a screw in the back of the heel. 6 weeks in a cast and then 4 weeks in the boot and then will start PT in about a week from now. As for how it feels? Imagine having legos in your shoes and try to walk. It is getting better but it is a process... have to stretch the tendons and muscles back to where they were before the injury. It just takes time and as I remind my patients we are not 25 anymore so it takes longer to recover. LOL

Ok, while I am still in a boot I hope to be walking well enough by Dec to not need the tram, however you can never be to sure how long healing will take.

"IF" the app is working. My last 2 cruises the app said they were having issues and I had to end up going to the cruise planner and checking in that way.

What are they considering handicapped? Do we have to show our placard? I just came off Achilles surgery and will be out of the boot in another week I don't know how well I will be able to walk in Dec.

All checked in but the earliest time was 12:00 noon. We will still be there around 11 ish anyway and see what happens.

Check in opens tonight...good luck to all to get an early boarding time.

RCCL IT team for the loss....:(

Yes that would be really frustrating, however I have never seen that on all my cruises. Everyone that I have booked with short time it has been available, and everyone that I have booked with yrs in advance have opened up at least 1 yr prior to sailing. I don't understand how I have been so lucky to be able to book all my dining, drinking and shore excursions so early while the "vast majority it seems" can not or has issues.

i booked My Time Dining 9/4/24 for my 12/7/25 sailing... so more than 1 yr in advance. I really do not see what all the fuss is about.

That is all well and good, but what is on the regular menu vs upcharged?

Yes it's almost a Holiday sailing.

50 days... woot only 5 more days until check in!!

LOL... yeah it does not quite work like that. You have to pay to play and they want you playing... Just like Vegas there are no windows or clocks.

I spent $800 on 1 cruise and then $500 on another and now my next 3 cruises that I have booked will all be free drinks and I got 3 "comped" cruises for that as well. So on my last cruise that I only spent $500 in the casino was a comped cruise and I have one in March and next Dec are comped as well. I have 5 offers for comped cruises that I will not even be able to use. The value from the casino in drinks and cruises greatly outweighs the losses.

Don't try to do everything...it is impossible. Only pick to do 1 thing a day and then let the rest just happen. Rest... take naps in the afternoon before dinner so that you are well rested for the shows. If you are only going up or down 1-2 decks take the stairs, don't wait for an elevator. Stay well hydrated. Relax and enjoy yourself...don't rush...you will have a better time. I am on the following sailing so wave as you leave the port.

Get Prime in the casino and bar bill will be $0.00.

We used to be able to reserve entertainment @ 180 days out.

@52 days and it is not ready yet on Oasis.

I live within driving distance and I still take the day before and the day after the cruise off just in case and for peace of mind.

Every port that is not Coco Cay has a post office and it would be a very unique birthday card to have it postmarked from the caribbean. The hop on hop off taxi stops across the street from the post office in St Thomas.

Don't do it.... You might make it but do you really want to take the chance of missing your flight.

yeah but you would have to go back through the line each time.
