Welcome to the boards! If you’re really into ultra premium, I suspect you will a bit disappointed with the whiskey selection. There are certainly some premium choices, but I don’t recall any stellar options with any of the liquors. Not to say you won’t have fun checking things out, though!

Deciding on a Date Night Specialty Restaurant
KristiZ replied to Melon250's topic in Royal Caribbean Dining
I'm an outlier, I guess. I tried 150 for the first time this past December. I had high hopes, but I didn't feel the food was worth the higher price tag. While the ambiance was very nice, it was not *that* much nicer than Chops. Honestly, pick whatever place looks like the best menu for you. -
Clarification on Izumi Hibachi Lunch/Dinner pricing
KristiZ replied to Scarlett625's topic in Royal Caribbean Dining
If you buy the lunch in advance through the cruise planner, it covers either the Classic or Premier option. I didn't know this when I booked for our cruise last December but found out once we were seated. It was a nice surprise! -

Rhapsody - Good Traditional Ship?
KristiZ replied to WannaCruise's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I really enjoyed Rhapsody last spring. I don’t think you have to worry about the kids getting bored. There are still activities, and there will be a number of other kids/young adults there with family as I’m sure you know, having sailed over Christmas before. They will meet people to hang out with if they want to. If they say they’re not worried, believe them! -
I have trouble uploading, but if I use the app and just take the photo, no problem. Same with scanning the ID -- works to let the app scan but not to upload a file.

Welcome to the boards! We stayed at the Steigenberger next to the airport and then took a taxi to the port. It’s a lovely hotel. However, you will be there a day longer than us so you might want a hotel near to some tourist spots. There’s also a Movenpick hotel right next to the cruise terminal that people like, with no cruise transfer necessary.

State Department Travel Warning for The Bahamas
KristiZ replied to WAAAYTOOO's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
Smokeybandit is correct -- this is only a Level 2 warning. (Several news sites are incorrectly saying the new alert raises The Bahamas to a Level 3.) I believe The Bahamas have been Level 2 for a while actually. So while the new alert is used to bring attention to the current concerns, it's not a signal that the situation is drastically changed. (I will caveat this with saying I'm not at work today and can't verify the historical status.) -

We did the private photos shoot when it was offered free to suite guests one time as well. As others have mentioned, they were great pics but they wouldn’t budge on pricing or style of prints. Not worth it. Right after that we talked to one of the regular ship photographers and set a time for her to take pictures of us against an interesting wall near the Schooner Bar. Turned out great, we got our 2 free Diamond photos and also bought 5 for a little discount. So maybe just go to the Photo Desk and see what they recommend for group shots.

In the Cruise Planner. But it depends on how far out your cruise is -- too far and you'll just have to keep checking back to see when it comes available

Coffee is the only one that comes to mind. There are a number of farms that do tours near Kona. However, one of my favorite things in Kona is the Seahorse Farm: https://seahorse.com it kind of counts as a plantation…

I just ate at Izumi Teppanyaki for lunch two weeks ago on Allure. I booked ahead, which has the benefit of being less expensive.

Can Vietnam's passport go cruising on Spectrum of the seas .
KristiZ replied to nga nguyen's topic in Other travel
Welcome to the Boards! Best option would be for them to use a travel agent in Vietnam to book their cruise. Then they would get the best advice on what documents they need, depending on the ports they will be sailing to. -
I don't believe you can reserve a spot ahead of time. We had no trouble finding a spot, though. I wouldn't worry!
