I'm just going to leave this here - it's certainly not the only time I've ever seen "Pick Your Own Room" fares less than "We Pick Your Room". So I still don't believe it's some grand scheme to screw people over - it's likely part of their pricing algorithm thing they have going on.

The over-the-water cabanas are the ones that can get up to $2.5k - in the Beach Club area. The Oasis Lagoon Cabanas are around the fresh water pool. We snagged one in December for $317 for 3 of us and we felt it was a good deal (it's rare to find them quite that low though). While we enjoyed them (and pretty much needed one that day since it was windy and cool), I'm not sure I'd do it again unless I had the right price and number of people. We definitely won't do it for just two of us.

Always ignore the "percentage off" and just look at the price per day.

My Symphony sailing had booking for entertainment show up about 120 days out. On Ovation it was about 45 days. So basically, just keep checking.

Welcome to the forum! Did you check your spam and trash folders to see if the email got filtered out?

Trust your EDocs over either the app or the booking site.

Frankly it's nothing Matt hasn't been telling us for the past year.

Probably, I just didn't realize it took them 3 months. Even the amplifications don't block out an entire 3 months, so I was just curious. You're probably right.

I experienced the same when my helium balloon excursion on Coco Cay was cancelled due to wind. The money was refunded to my Sea Pass card by noon.

Welcome to the forum! Others will have more solid advice, and I think they'll recommend self assist.

If you or your TA has made a note of it, sometimes your room steward will make a fuss as well. Ours did on Ovation last June for my husband's 50th (she had 2 people sneak in and make an elaborate towel cake, complete with towel candle) - we accidentally interrupted the process, so they sang an impromptu Happy Birthday to him. I miss that woman. She was just the best.

Ok, so not a Terminal A thing, because twice I sailed out of there, but not Symphony. I guess I'll find out in 33 days, since I'm sailing on Symphony then! I totally believe you, I just haven't had that experience yet.

I was on the typical 7-day Ovation Alaskan itinerary last June. Not sure if I can help or not.

Like, on a phone?

I've uploaded mine on the past 3 cruises - nobody has ever retaken my pic. Maybe that's a particular terminal or ship policy?
