SpeedNoodles

I'll probably try to get one for one day of my 8-night Odyssey sailing (if they are ever offered).

I'm having flashbacks to a few years ago when we got a new system at work (which we absolutely depend on to do our jobs quickly and efficiently) and it crashed constantly. The line we got from the company was "we're aware of the problem and we're working on it". In the meantime we'd have a dozen people on pen and paper totally stressed and ready to quit their jobs, lol. Good times....

It's been available to purchase on my Allure sailing since I booked last summer (and still is).

I am looking for these for my January Odyssey sailing but I don't see them. Could they all be sold out already?

I feel like very few (and, Hi neighbor - I'm in Farmington ? )

Yeah, I'm rarely found on the pool deck. It's always just too sunny and/or too crowded for my taste (at least pre-Covid).

As far as the casitas go, there are so few and people snag them so early and then hang onto them all day anyway, so I'd never be able get one to begin with (a la 'chair hog mode'). The casita hogs might as well pay for the privilege of shade. ?

My husband uses "So Clean" as well. Well SHOOT. But I didn't think SoClean used high temps to clean, I thought it was just ozone. Guess we better look into it more.

I think it makes more sense they way they do internet now. Before it was unclear that you just chose one passenger and "x" many devices, so people often paid for more than they needed to. (For instance, before I'd go on and choose "2 devices", but then it would ask me to choose which passenger on my reservation wanted it - me or my husband. If I didn't know better, and many people don't, they check every member of their traveling party instead of simply how many log ins they need).

Yep, Mr. SpeedNoodles has this issue as well.

My husband has a small travel CPAP that he can run off of battery. Not sure if he'll use this option on Allure or not (our last cruises ships have had outlets near the bed, so he hasn't had to worry about it lately).

We've always gotten the industrial orange what-seem-like-50' cords, too. Meh, it is what it is.

They did on the test cruise, so I'd assume so? https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2021/07/27/allure-of-the-seas-test-cruise-live-blog-day-1

Don't bring one, they'll just confiscate it. Like others said, make the request ahead of time and they will provide one.

Yeah. But it'd still be cool. ?

This topic is not directly related to cruising and is clearly going to go downhill quickly. Contact your legislators with your support for, or opposition to, this bill. ?

It'd be cool if they found a way to integrate FitBits into this process. So many people are already wearing them anyway!

I switched from an Owner's Suite on Empress to an Owner's Suite on Odyssey. The price difference, at the time, was around $8k. I don't even check for price drops on that one - it's not going to happen, lol.

I got one late last spring or early summer for my October cruise. I booked through a TA.

They still haven't canceled our Labadee stop on the Oct 24 Allure sailing. This might be the straw that pushes them to do so.

The RCBlog Insiders already have one ?

A 3-day window is pretty standard, though.

No, there are no C&A points for test cruises.
