@MrMarcMight be cancelled or sold out, since it can't be brought on board.
 
I also keep hearing about how cheap it is on Adventure, Freedom and Liberty in 2021. My Jan 22 sailing have all be above $25.99, with a sale. The Mariner one hasn't gone lower than $27.99 since before the restart. My Jan Indy was $23.99 at one point but I thought that was too high for 4n. If it is under $20 a day then it makes it palatable. But with low capacity and 2-device internet at around $26/day, it's not a good deal.

I still wish the fight over how much power a Federal agency has was being decided over a more important activity and a much less polarizing issue than the COVID vaccine.  We would have a chance for a less result oriented decision.

I guess I'm the only one that thinks this a better deal.  The 25% off and free room service seems like it would be enough value added to the zoom package.  And most of the time I think there are much better seats than they reserved for the key, so early access seems better to me.  And when I  was flying to a port,, I really liked being able to drop off carry on stuff.  As for breakfasts, depends on what's in the bag.  I guess everyone has different views on what makes the key worth it.

I wonder if this is a limit set by the cruise line, or by Demand.  Has any one checked on cabin availability just prior to the cruise date?  Are the actually trying to sell more or does it show sold out?  For example, I just checked on the October 3 sailing of the Liberty out of Galveston, and it shows all types of rooms as available.  Not a conspiracy theory, but could they be hiding lack of demand as capacity limits?

I booked it for a December cruise, but the extra meal, ability to drop off my carry on stuff and Wi-Fi is enough value for me.

If you claim to be in the medical field and claim tests are only available for people who are symptomatic or exposed, then I am very, very glad you are not responsible for any aspect of my care, and I really think that you should not be responsible for any aspect of care for any living thing.  Tests are readily available.  If you were not aware they were required to board, then you have been ignoring the news, all communications from RCCL, and certainly have not been following any cruise blogs.

Obviously what would make this all better is if RCCL assigned a personal case worked to every cruiser to walk through the evolving landscape.  Someone who would call you every day and confirm you read the email communications, where up to speed on the latest requirements from CDC, RCCL, countries you will be visiting.  Perhaps they can fill out the paperwork for you as well.  Maybe even take the test to make it completely seamless and easy for you to properly enjoy your cruise vacation.  Of course the tens of thousands of passengers who have already successfully navigated these waters without personalized hand holding might be a little jealous....but it's the least we can do to personally absolve you of any personal responsibility in your life.

Ok.  I contacted them.  It is only if you are hospitalized, but the transfer once you are hospitalized does not have to be medically necessary.  In other words, even if that hospital feels they can treat you without a transfer, you can choose to be transferred to a US Hospital.  Considering I have a heart condition, I think I would probably be hospitalized if I were COVID positive, even without additional symptoms.  If so, then their transfer would kick in, so I may keep both to have a belt and suspenders so to speak.  Besides, if I spend that much on insurance, I can be pretty sure I will never need it.

Ok, they just confirmed that they will only evacuate if you are admitted to a hospital, but the evacuation does not have to be a medical necessity.  In other words, if you can convince them to admit you to a hospital,  they will evacuate you.   Since I've had a heart attack, I'm going to trust that I can convince them to admit me even if I'm not symptomatic and keep both policies.

Mine too.  The office itself was closed, so they are going to have a rep call me tomorrow.  I can see how they may be interpreting what I read, and I can see how I interpreted it.  If I am wrong, I hope I can at least get my money back.  And if I am wrong, I cannot find anything that will evacuate you if you are not symptomatic except whatever Royal was selling for their Nassau cruises, which I do not know any way for the general public to get it.  But I will be trying to find out over the next few days.

It was $444 for a year for me.  But I just called them and was told they also would not transfer you unless you are hospitalized.  So I might have wasted my money.  They are having someone call me back tomorrow.  I'll let you know what they say.  I saw this: Hospital to Hospital Medical Transfer for member regardless of Medical Necessity, COVID-19 Info HERE" and made an assumption, it appears I could be wrong, so I do not know if it is providing anything more than my BlueGeo, which also includes medical insurance.  MedJet is only transportation and security services.

If I get stuck in a quarantine situation, I want to be able to get home.  BlueGeo will only evacuate if "Medically necessary", and being quarantined does not require evacuation back to the US.  MedJet will cover evacuation in almost any situation.  This is not an ad for either, just something to think about.

At least they had a good reason. 

We were on oasis for my kick cancer’s ass/50th birthday celebration and 1/2 the ship was chartered by LulaRoe-the ugly leggings company. 
 
This was more disturbing than crazy…..this is a MLM company that women get involved with but it appears many women made their husbands wear these obnoxious leggings all over the ship. It hurt my eyes! Men wearing women’s leggings is just wrong! 

I have a few, but was told “what happens on the RC Blog group cruise, stays on the cruise ship”!
