The first limitation will be if the ship even has the ability to make prints. Several of them don't anymore. The ad has generic text for that reason.
-
Wait to use the FCC until the due date, or at least close to it. Once you apply a FCC, it becomes hard/impossible to reprice the itinerary
-
I have not done one with the same itinerary, but I would absolutely consider it! You'd have the option to explore a different area at the stop the second time, or (even better!) just stay onboard the ship when most other people are on shore.

Welcome to the blog! I love Grand Cayman ? If you've never been, I'd say Stingray City, snorkeling, and the Turtle Farm are the easiest highlights. It is always nice to have a Royal excursion (in the morning!) when you're at a tender port. Then there's no worry about standing in line. @LetsTryThisPlace lives in Grand Cayman, maybe they can help answer your questions?

Settle a debate.... WOW bands post covid

And Spectrum! -
If you don't want to L&S, I think your best bet is to just wait it out. That's the only way you'll have the full refund option -- if Royal cancels.

C&A Points for cancelled sailings... official statement?

Cunard Extends Pause in Operations to November
KristiZ replied to SpeedNoodles's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
Ohmygoodness yes! I can totally picture the black masks with the satin stripe on the edge! Or covered in sequins! Yes... I see a new revenue stream for the fashion industry! ? -
Price drop on DX pkg. How long is refund taking?
KristiZ replied to Wilson's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I did the cancel-and-rebook thing about 10 days ago on an internet package. The refund took 5 days. Longer than normal, but no where near 90 days. -
You will need to wait. You have to show a current (more recent than 90 days, I think) stock ownership at the time of request. I try to do mine at 30 days prior, but not earlier than that or it'll get rejected. Hope that helps!

A Rubbermaid Cocktail! I remember those... I mean, I remember *hearing* about those, from other bartenders. *cough*

One way to "fix" this is make sure your wife's name is first on the next reservation. Typically the first passenger pays the highest rate.

Panoramic (VP) or Junior Suite?!?! - Freedom OTS 2021
KristiZ replied to S0nny's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Me, I'd take the giant window and full suite benefits any day over a balcony. Having the concierge club is totally worth it, unless you're already Diamond Plus. And the potential free entertainment tour and suite reception and anything else? Sign me up! -
How Many Days Since Your Last Cruise
KristiZ replied to Va4fam's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
119 days since we got off Spectrum of the Seas 185 days until Liberty of the Seas -
Welcome! The status on the blog comes from posting, commenting, and reacting in the blog. The "levels" are the same as C&A as a little homage is all.

Feasability of less than full ships
KristiZ replied to Vancity Cruiser's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
It was actually the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978 that changed the industry dramatically -- before that the airlines could actually make a profit while flying with empty seats. Prior to the Act, airlines were treated as a public utility. With the removal of federal rules and introduction of the free market concept, both prices AND service went down ? -
First time on Oasis-so many questions

DBP is $41 on my Liberty 11/1/20 sailing! ?

We lost our June 7 Jewel of the Seas Arctic cruise, which has been a bucket list trip forever. Even scored the Intern Special for it ? There is no comparable sailing next summer, sadly. So we'll be looking to add a couple of sailings, likely in the Caribbean since we'll be moving back to that side of the world before the end of the year. As soon as we have a move date, I'll be back to planning and plotting! ? The good part is that Arctic cruise was more expensive than some, so we'll be able to get a couple trips out of our FCC.

Crown & Anchor Husband & Wife Question

Passport Expiration Question/Under 16
KristiZ replied to Neesa's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Haiti is the one that requires a 6 month validity, of those ports. The other two are "a U.S. passport valid for the duration of your stay" only. -
May 3rd OASIS - Cozumel Mexico excursion
KristiZ replied to Rene Desmarais's topic in Shore Excursions
The tour is absolutely worth it, BUT ONLY if you fly there from Cozumel. It is too far for the bus tours. You don't get nearly enough time at the ruins.
