    I found the same thing on some of my Symphony cruises.  It's an awesome price for the drinks package but gone is the Voom/DBP combo !!  I did go ahead and cancel my existing Voom/DBP combo and re-book the drinks only pkg for $44/pp/pd.  If they have done away with the drink+Voom combo I will just have to get Voom onboard with the D+ discount.

    Friends of mine in Canada have posted photos of vandalized cars when they have plates that are not from that particular province as well.  Just something to be aware of.

    Unless we've booked through NextCruise or some promotion, we've always paid $250 per person in deposits.

    Just a reminder that if you book flights through Royal's Air2Sea department they don't require payment until your cruise final payment date, and you are able to cancel your flights up til that date as well. I have added flights through Air2Sea to lock in price and availability, and then kept checking to see if I could get a better price elsewhere. When I did find a better price,  just called Royal and had them take the Air2Sea flight off my reservation.

    For me it seems to come down to length, ship and/or type of cabin. My 4n Independence of the Seas was only $100 but my 7n Allure was $250.

    In case anyone is interested, the "bait" is back out there.  The Royal Suite (which I relinquished as part of the L&S) as well as an Owner's Suite (which wasn't there when I booked the RS) are both showing for the 11-22-20 Empress sailing.  The OS has a particularly attractive price ($1468 PP).  So, if anyone is interested in taking a nicely discounted cruise next Nov (probably a Thanksgiving week) in an Owner's Suite or higher (maybe ???) you could book it now and L&S. The bad news is that final payment date has now come and gone, so if you wanted to do this you would have to pay the balance in full when you book.  Still a very good deal !

    I just checked my first sailings, which are Nov. 6 and 13 on NAV.  We had already checked in but when I went to look at the boarding passes it made me pick a boarding time.  This was not there when we did the original check-in last week.  The earliest time was 2:30.  We chose 2:30.
    Now....I fully expect these cruises to be cancelled, but it's nice to see that they are implementing boarding protocols.  It's a step in the right direction, even if these particular cruises don't happen.
