I'm sailing on Symphony next week and trying to find out what the daily cost of the wi-fi package is. I'm diamond plus so I get two free days, but my wife wants a weekly package. Is it more economical to just buy the weekly pass (at it's current 20% pre cruise discount) or pay for three days individually? We're on a six-night and don't need it for the embarcation for arrival days. Thanks for any insight from this community!

Thanks. Definitely hoping its Aquatheatre. I saw a Super Bowl in the Aqau Theatre a few years ago and it was great.

Anyone on Wonder tonight? Can you tell us where they are showing the NFL games? We are on Wonder next week and want to watch the Divisional Championship games. Thanks!

Thanks everyone for your replies and the information!

Same thing happened to me. I'm sailing on Wonder in February and magically a $50 OBC showed up a month ago. Hey, I'll take it!

Would appreciate everyone's opinion on the earliest flight time I should book for a return trip home from Orlando airport after disembarking at Port Canaveral. Thanks!

Thermal Spa is great. I, personally, would spring for the week. Last couple ships I've been on that had it I used it every day. The sauna is nice, the steam room is amazing and the rainwater showers are fantastic. I rarely used the shower in my room. Oh, and the thermal beds are sublime. I would put my headphones on and drift away. Basically it's the price of one drink a day.

Thank you! I figured that might be the case. Still gonna miss that place though.

Wonder was built for Asia? I wasn't aware of that. Will she be doing any sailings in Asia in the future?

My wife and I are getting ready to sail on Wonder of the Seas and it looks like they blew out the Jazz Club for the new High Rollers casino room. Did they relocate the Jazz Club or am I out of luck? I love the Jazz Club on the other Oasis ships, although I know it was rarely full. Thanks!

Thank you! I didn't realize she just returned from Europe.

Thanks Speednoodles. I did see that but I was wondering if anything will have changed since the sail days are different. The compass you attached is a Friday to Friday sailing, we will be on a Sunday to Sunday. Do you think things will remain the same? Thanks again.

Can anyone help me get a copy or see a cruise Compass from WOTS Eastern Caribbean itinerary? We are sailing in early Feb and would like to see the shows, etc. Thanks!

My wife and I are Diamond Plus so we've sailed a lot, but NEVER out of Port Canaveral. Is it best to stay in Orlando, or stay closer to the port? What's the best approach to ground transportation? We're not going to rent a car, assume there are many options for shuttles? What's the best approach? Appreciate any tips the community can provide. Thanks!

When we walked up to the ta online, three taxis were pulling away with passengers and there were no others. We waited less than 5 minutes before several others rolled up. Didn’t seem to be any issue with taxi flow.

Had the fastest departure process ever. We did self assist and came down from our room at 6:50. We were waiting for an taxi at the terminal at 7:04 AM. Now at the airport and waiting for my 10:15 AM flight home. It was our first time sailing since January 2020. What a great week and so nice to be back on a ship!

Thanks Matt. Is there a tutorial anywhere? I downloaded the app on my iphone, but I'm a bit confused about doing this on my phone versus my laptop. Also, is the appointment scheduled immediately or do we have to schedule in advance. It all seemed so easy until I started paying attention LOL. Thanks again.

Will be taking the home test in a couple days. Do my wife and I both have to download the app and register separately or can we do it together? Thanks!

How serious are they in Miami about the check-in times? We are sailing with friends on an upcoming Symphony trip...they have a 1 PM check-in time, my wife and I have a noon check-in time. Our friends will want to shuttle with us from the hotel. Does that mean they will need to wait outside for an hour? I heard Matt talk about this on the podcast and just checking if it's still as strict. Thanks.

Hi all. I know that we get double cruise credits for staying in a suite. Do we also get double credits if we stay in a junior suite? (Not asking about the current double up promos). Also, what perks do you miss out on in a junior versus higher level suite. Thanks!

It was supposed to be the first sail date after it's three week pause for COVID. Has anyone heard anything? Thanks!

If your bid is accepted, do you get new documents (specifically printable luggage tags?) Or do you have to have the baggage folks hand write you luggage tags for the news room? Thanks.

Thanks. smokeybandit provided a great thread that answered my questions.

Can anyone share their experience with the Royal Up program? I'm considering this for an upcoming cruise. Specifically curious about how far in advance do they tell you if you got the upgrade and does it affect the cruise points you get. My wife and I are booked in a Grand Suite on Symphony for our 30th anniversary and thinking about trying to upgrade, but don't want to mess anything up or lose cruise points. We booked the Grand Suite more than a year ago. Thanks for any feedback!

I always make sure I have $5 bills on me and I will frequently tip bar/pool waiters and sometimes bartenders $5 when they have been serving me for a while as an added thank you. I also always tip my stateroom attendant $20 on the first day and $20 on the last day in addition to the gratuities I get charged for by Royal.
