Will be going on a honeymoon cruise in about a year. Was wondering if anyone had any experiences with Royal's gift cards and registry. Specifically ease of use for those purchasing and then claiming of the cards. We want to go this route instead of traditional gifts. Thanks!

Luggage tags and the Apple Air Tags are items that go on and in every single bag that I have, regardless if I'm checking them or not. Had one bag of my mom's almost end up on a different cruise line (even though it had RC tags) and we were able to locate it before sailing. And the next trip I nearly had the same thing happen to one of mine, I just happened to be watching for it. It might be unnecessary to put them on the unchecked bags, but I always feel better having them on there in case I walk away from it and leave it for awhile. Things happen while using the deluxe beverage package from time to time.

Was hopeful. 7 night sitting at 35% off (67.99). Have not seen it lower for Independence. Though I have been able to snag some good dining deals.

RIP Majesty Would have loved to see your badge from my first sailing. In other news, how did Royal know I needed another vice of trying to complete "quests" to 100 percent...

Hey come on now I know this game. You're going to try and tell me that it was my parents all along or something like that. But I've been to the mall and have met the easter bunny and Santa personally!!

Love Hideaway Beach!! Sometimes the price is high but if you watch the planner you can find a good deal on it. Heated pool is nice during the colder months. Music from the dj brings a fun vibe. Plenty of food options around and its not too crowded there. Good view of the ships and the ocean from it as well.

I'm happy to report that even after 12 months you will find that the water is still wet.

I'm a 6'1'' 240 pound guy that wears either an XL or 2XL shirt and I'm here to tell you to not waste your money on the robes. The length of the "arm" went to about halfway down my forearm and even thinking about tying the sash was laughable. It was free because of Crown and Anchor so it didn't bother me, but I would hate for anyone to be out some money because of how small these things are.

I will sail on a few Oasis class ships and report back as soon as I can. Thank you for giving me another reason to sail!

Can confirm Liberty needs a bit of work. Doesn't even have the freestanding Coke machines. The bars are busy enough, I don't need kids there as I'm ordering my 7th Coco Loco of the afternoon. Adventure was fine but a refresh wouldn't hurt.

Was on Liberty for New Years and they did not have the freestyle machines.

Was pretty bad over Thanksgiving. Was toned down a bit on the New Years sailing.

I just wish that teens wouldn't sprint around the ship looking for these things. I'm a PE teacher and even I'm finding a lot of what the kids are doing to be reckless.

I never saw any of it as an extra hassle for one person. I loved my solo cruise from two years ago and would go again. Went for a normal interior room versus the solo room. Little extra space goes a long way. Enjoy your future trip!

So a lot of skipping the smoke or extra spending I see
