If you go into the Royal Caribbean app and select a sailing when you go to the Main Dining Room menu the vegan menu is listed at the very bottom before the wine list starts..right after the kids menu as you're scrolling through.

This is the Allure menu I couldn't get uploaded earlier.

Allure in the beginning of September we were told the 11-11 was going away per corporate's decision and then a day later the Concierge said corporate changed it back.

I was thinking more along the lines of capacity within "zones". Maybe they have some new air recirculation requirements and need to limit capacity in different zones so they need to redistribute. Doesn't necessarily prevent putting folks into cabins next to each other or rotating which cabins are used from cruise to cruise, but they may determine they can only have a certain amount of capacity in a section of a ship -- kind of like adhering to a CDC version of lifeboat capacity.

I have tried it. I wouldn't spend a night of a 3-night package on it but I'd consider it an option with the Ultimate Dining Package. That said we didn't bother visiting last time we were on Allure and had dining included.

On a positive related note, I had a SW flight this weekend that was a casualty of this. Fortunately I was already on the getting home leg of my travel. I was able to self-book on a flight 12 hours later through the SW app and made it home. I have an annual travel insurance policy which covered the extra rental car charges and meals. SW just sent me an unsolicited voucher for $100 as an apology. My original flight was only $59. One of my traveling companions had rebooked on a different airline and received an unsolicited $250 voucher. And one had actually contacted SW to compliment how easy it was to rebook and that the flight attendants and gate agents we dealt with were still pleasant despite the circumstances and she got a $150 voucher. So it looks like they're trying to at least make it right and be more in line with the customer service levels that they used to be associated with.

Scan your barcode with a barcode scanner on your smartphone and see if you have a room number at the end! You don't HAVE to be invited via email to RoyalUp but not everyone is eligible. You can try directly through the link: https://www.royalcaribbean.com/booked/cruise-room-upgrade

https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/what-if-i-dont-find-a-pre-cruise-test-or-get-test-results-in-time Links for each port are at the bottom.

I was just curious. I have a GTY inside too and noticed that my SetSail all of a sudden had a deck number and muster station but still said REPRINT. I scanned the barcode and the -GTY was changed to a cabin number that would be on that deck, so I assume I got assigned but they didn't want me to know yet Edit to add: This wasn't impacted by the social distancing of cabins thing..just curious about GTY assignments showing up.

Does your SetSail pass show a muster station or deck number on it yet?

They book far in advance so they're subject to scheduling issues with staff and potentially supply issues. If someone calls out and they don't have a backup who can do the testing they would have to cancel.

My same card that gave me the Royal offer also gave me a Delta Airlines offer for $125 back on a single charge of $300 or more. The Terms & Conditions state you can't buy a gift card but in the past it has worked if you purchase them directly through Delta's website using a computer (their desktop site). So YMMV, but if you fly Delta it may be worth taking a shot at a gift card if you don't have a flight to book.

It's tough once they learn how to read!

They do not carry over. Use them or lose them.

Thought so too..nothing prior to Nov 1 is being messed with and it's affecting sailings through March and April.

If it's available it won't be turned on until you are on the ship and connected to the ships wifi. Then you will have the option in the app. It will likely be like MyTime Dining where reservations are recommended but not required. They might have separate reservations qnd standby lines if it starts getting too crowded.

Maybe they're bringing more crew onboard and need guest cabins for them to quarantine. Who knows. My TA said she was told the changes start tomorrow.

Yeah..it makes zero sense. It's like they wanted to pick folks at random but forgot to put parameters in to prevent this.

Yup..4 device package but one login is the way they do it. Once you hit the 5th device one device loses the connection and has to log back in which boots another.

This is happening to a lot of folks on a lot of different cruises, including me. I've seen someone post they got the email and they they had a guarantee oceanview room and hadn't even been assigned yet. Another was someone who had the Royal Loft Suite which has absolutely no like-for-like option. It will be interesting to see what the reasoning for those rooms needing to be moved. My MEI TA did call and confirm the email was legit but the change hadn't been made yet so she couldn't do anything yet. We specifically chose a room for reasons I'm sure they won't consider in a repositioning but are a huge deal to the one that holds the pocketbook.

You can have them put the ice cream in anything. It doesn't have to be a cone If they insist take the cone and transfer. Then order your shot and mix. I used to dump the ice cream in coffee. I've also used the Bionic Bar to order shots to add to my coffee so that's an option for ships with those.

And I thought the CEO would be pro-revenue! I guess this shows that Royal really does care about their loyal customer base

I got one of these emails today for my Harmony Thanksgiving cruise I have a feeling Royal's definition of like-for-like will be much different than my mother's definition.

They said June or July. I'm secretly hoping it conflicts with the July 2022 Mariner GC so that will make the Mariner cruise less crowded

It's probably more that the unvaccinated crowd skews towards the under 12 set.
