We had to use airline credits that were to expire for our airfare for this trip.  Hopefully our flight will not get cancelled.  I do feel better that we are flying in one day early

This is our first time sailing Royal Caribbean and we are wondering if coffee and tea are include with our meals or if they charge extra for that at meals?

For all you Seattle Alaska cruisers flying to your cruise be aware that the Port of Seattle offers a free luggage valet.  This program is offered free by the Port of Seattle and does not carry a charge like the Luggage Valet program offered by Royal Caribbean at some Florida based ports.
Luggage valet is a program for those flying from SeaTac (SEA) airport.  You register around day 3 of the cruise providing your flight details then later in the cruise you will be provided special luggage tags for any checked bags you plan to fly home with.  On the last night of the cruise you place your luggage out in the hall and it will be delivered to the airport and your airline for you.  You don't have to handle your luggage again until you arrive at your destination airport.  
To take advantage of this program there are eligibility criteria:
You must disembark between 7am and 9:15am Your flight must depart at 12pm or later the same day that you disembark. You must be flying from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SeaTac, SEA) You must have a confirmed airline reservation Participating Airlines:
American Airlines Alaska Airlines JetBlue Airways Delta Airlines (domestic only) United Airlines Southwest Airlines (flights between 12pm and 6pm only) Any baggage fees charged by your airline will still apply.
Remember to NOT pack any medication, valuables, identification and documentation like passports plus a change of clothes for the day you disembark.
Here is the luggage valet form that should be delivered to your cabin around day 3 of your cruise:
