Yeah I think I have used a lounger maybe 2-3 hrs per cruise. Less if my wife wakes me up because I am snoring to loud.

Thank you for reserving a chair for me to use in your absence. I had a wonderful time and did not have to search for a lounger as this was well displayed for me to use.

Yes, but the OP did not specifically say they were in a Grand suite or above and I did not want them thinking if you are in a Jr Suite that you get all the benefits that other suites get.

None of this works if you are in a Junior Suite.

If you sailed after the restart there was a limited time promotion where you got double points.

On Symphony on Dec 2 trying for the same.

Entertainment now open and booked. w00t!!

Yeah no... I can not believe anything from anyone that gets a fillet done more than med rare.

No increase for me... they will eventually price me out of cruising.

We like the Oasis class as even we don't go to all the popular venues, but the other people on board do, which leaves other areas of the ship less crowded.

So I say to the party we are leaving the ship at such time and we are going to be located at a preselected location. If you show up cool, if not oh well you knew the plan. See you later on board. I am not responsible for others actions or inactions that may or may not impact their enjoyment of the port.

I would bet you will get nothing from the cruise line. If you have to you will have to try and sue for damages. Hire an attorney.

I am on the same sailing and the earliest time I could get wsa 12 noon.

Check in day!! The earliest i could get was 12 noon, but we are in a suite so it really does not matter.

Mmmmm... more flavor!!

So that really depends: All are good but some have had better venues for different things... however this was in the past. Going forward is anybody's guess. Find the cabin you want going where you want and the rest is just gravy. Symphony for the Solarium Bistro for breakfast and lunch Oasis WJ and the Aqua show Independence for the broadway show Allure all was good but the others were better for mentioned reasons.

Nothing but 5%-10% off for me. I already have things booked for way less.

I am just wondering that if when the time comes, am I going to book on another line and cruise for the sake of cruising and being disappointed that I am not on Royal?

Where do you find the Royal gifts?

That or it's called a Cadillac Margarita.

We are going to try for CK for the 1st time on this upcoming cruise. We never did it before as it was the old MDR menus, and we were fine with them. Now with the new menus and with a 3 night speciality dining pkg we are hoping to use CK this time.

Watch the movie. It has all the elaboration needed.

For those that want to take a diuretic, please consult your physician before you do. It can lead to low sodium, potassium and or magnesium issues that may end up being very serious.

It is not that you have outgrown Royal, its the entitlement ages that are now getting into cruising that is bringing in the downfall. Just as with parenting and then politics and social etiquette falling by the wayside and the other just letting it happen, well now here we are. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0387808/ has come to pass.

Ok in my expert medical opinion the easiest and most convenient way to do this without feeling like missing out on things is to do the following. If you are going to use the elevator only do it if you are going more than 2 decks, otherwise use the stairs. If you are going to the bow or aft, use the elevator on the opposite end. So if you are in the middle of the ship and you want to go to the bow, walk to the aft elevators and vise versa. Walk the running track 2-3 times after dinner or if you have a show then after the show. Drink at least 1 glass of water before each meal. This will keep you hydrated and help to make you feel full without overeating. Always make sure you have at least one serving of raw or steamed vegetables at each meal. Real easy to do... I eat whatever I want, drink whatever I want and never miss desert and I lose 2-3 lbs on every cruise.
