    I and others are still waiting to hear what's happening with our Freedom sailings in November/December 2024. They've been off the website for weeks and everything points to her doing her required dry dock in that period, including a booking at the port of Funchal in November that pretty much confirms this hypothesis.
    But we have yet to hear anything from Royal and those who contacted them have essentially been given the run-around, which is not fair because it prevents you from making alternative arrangements far enough in advance that the prices are still reasonable. Obviously it's way too far out for anyone to have air booked yet but, even so, a couple of the apparently affected sailings are holidays sailings that will be extremely difficult to replace closer in.
    I used to work in tourism and the one thing we held as gospel was always to keep our guests informed. Even if you have nothing new to tell them, you go and tell them precisely that, and you keep doing it until you do have some news for them. Nothing stirs up a beehive of discontent more than people feeling they are being ignored and disrespected.

    You earn points by sailing. You want to purchase then purchase another cruise and happy sailing.

    In a way you can purchase status: book a suite
     
    Just you have to give the status back when you leave.

    It is not so much the length of the ship that counts it is the beam and the interior volume that make a huge difference.

    I always have mine printed onboard; have heard too many stories of digital files never received.

    I go to the WJ after dinner and grab some things to have later and put them in the cooler. As well as taking an extra desert back from the MDR. That way after the shows and some time in the casino there are snacks fo me in the room.

    Jolly Ogre got a reaction from DDaley in Did the unlimited dining package on Oasis...won't do it again   
    Wow that is unfortunate.  We were on Oasis in Dec and even at full capacity we went to Izumi's 1st thing when we boarded to make our reservations.
    There was nobody there and we made all our other reservations for the week at the same time. Even when we were done there were no other passengers waiting for us to finish. 
    When we got to each restaurant for the nights dinner there were only like 3-4 other couples/families in the place. Even when we finished and were leaving there were plenty of tables empty.

    There are menus but it is the welcome aboard day 1 and then all the rest are the children's menu and the wine list but that is all for the MDR. The specialty dining and Coastal Kitchen has the full menus up.
    this is for android.
