    Zambia-Zaire got a reaction from Jolly Ogre in The End of Grease on Harmony   
    I thought the movie was good for its time; however, totally agree with Harmony otS potential cancelation of that show...it's not good & really relying on the namesake of the show. Yet still...if Grease goes, Cats on Oasis otS should go.

    Buy the lowest quality of hot dog...and there you go. Besides...I have been an advocate of expanding their offerings to cheese dogs, Chilli dogs, fried dogs, corn dogs & pig in a blanket(last two just screams Atlantic City Boardwalk)  etc.

    Zambia-Zaire got a reaction from Rackham in Utopia Venues Being Removed, Added, Renovated, and Relocated   
    I agree & love the intimate setting of the Attic; however, I sorta understand the conundrum. Utopia sales...the demographics appears to be heavily college to mid 40's. We love to laugh & be entertained. Royal may have a huge overflow of passengers trying to get in (reserve seat) into such a small venue, limited capacity, on a very short cruise...never having the opportunity, to see a good show. Comedians only do so many shows per sailing. So, the need for a much large venue, to placate the passengers attending the shows, is needed. Pack'em into the Royal Theater.

    Agreed when you talking about comedy and specifically a comedy club environment you need an intimate small venue not the vastness of the theater.

    I think it's a mistake removing the comedy club and relegating the comedy shows to the theater. It sucks the audience out of the equation in that kind of a venue.

    Slightly off subject; but one of my wish list would be a general Oasis Style Pool; and, an Adult Pool & area, at Labadee, much like CoCoCay.

    I doubt they ever do this, but New Orleans would be a fun port of call for an overnight on a longer sailing.

    Royal should not only consider a permanent port of call out of New Orleans with a Voyager Class ship; but also, consider seasonal sailing out of Mobile, AL. with one of their Radiance Class ships, like BotS. Especially, whenever PDMex opens.

    It's coming sooner rather than later one way or another. And if you can find a buyer for an old cruise ship, you listen.

    I hear ya...why I wish Royal would explore putting a beach club style resort/private area in the Tampico, MX region...as well as partner with other cruiselines & city/county/state in revitalizing the Port area in Corpus Christi, for and additional stop over, for the extreme Western Caribbean in the Gulf of America. 👀
     
    I also wish they would consider permanently or at minimal,  an 8mon seasonal sailings with a Voyage Class Ship, New Orleans.

    I take it, you're saying you drove from PaP to Lab, which yes, the last dozen or so miles are unpaved apparently.
     
    [Not Addressing This Directly At Zach... just making a point.] Which the narrative being conveyed misleadingly, if that's a word, imo, is treachery, in my book. Now, I don't think these rebels, will expose themselves, from the comfort of their own security; however, I wouldn't just take for granted, their capabilities, should they feel, it's a must, to bring more attention to the island. Movement thru the majority of a paved road, only to journey a dozen or so miles, on an unpaved road, not tracking thru a dense jungle, is very misleading.

    I've driven the RN3 from PaP to Cap-Haitien. There's certainly unpaved portions even on the RN3, and the paved portions are still...not great. And getting worse each day, because there's pretty much no maintenance work done on the roads of Haiti from my experience.

    I certainly appreciate Royal's newfound presence on the West Coast; yet, my heart sorely desires, after viewing a number of Six & Five Day cruises, by Quantum & Ovation otS, that Royal could have combine some of these durations into 9-12 day cruises up & down the Pacific Coastline, Porting out of both L.A & Seattle, for a handful of cruises. Example: Two or three from L.A., to Ensenada, back up to Diego, Santa Monica, an overnighter in SF, to Vancouver, back to down & end in Sea. As well as two or three porting from Sea, to Victoria, back south to Astoria, overnighter in SF, to Diego, overnighter in Cabo back to & end in L.A. A missed explored opportunity, in my book.... would love to see that itinerary.

    It's not so much about the small price hike that bothers me.  It is the reduction in services and other changes that were put in place after the restart.  The quality of cleaning on a turnover day is unsatisfactory.  I've discovered personal items left behind in a cubby, closet, and under a couch cushion on 3 separate cruises this year.  The used pink tights/pantyhose under the couch cushion on Utopia and the spoiled food hidden behind the mirrored cubby in the desk area on Grandeur are really what broke it for me.  I'm not looking for a comp'ed meal or anymore RCL swag items to placate my frustration with RCL's cuts in service and quality.  I addressed the issues while onboard with Guest Services & the Crown (Diamond) Lounge Concierge and was very specific on the end of cruise survey.  Don't ask me to rate everything 10 of 10 on the survey when we are obviously not get that kind of quality service for our $$.
