We used our FCC which came from last March's FOTS cruise out of SJ that was cancelled. We applied our FCC to this year's March HOTS cruise and only payed the difference. We'll apply the new FCC to next year's March springbreak cruise. We normally book non-refunded rooms, and have know for awhile that March was looking very slim for cruising.

We just payed for our March 27th on Harmony and wish they would make a decision to go / cancel. If its cancelled we have plans all set to go to Cancun to an All-inclusive w/ the kids. Just would like to get it booked earlier rather than later due to airfares.

Sail away on Symphony of the Seas from Miami, just realizing that I won't have contact with work for 7 wonderful nights and nothing to worry about, since I can't do anything about it. I refuse to access / pay for the internet service, just to decompress for a few days.

It is an error unless Royal is giving free drink packages to everyone. I have the same showing in my cruise planner as well and didn’t purchase it. We can dream until Royal corrects it, right?

Glad I'm not the only one seeing this. Thanks much

It's basically an error in graphics, because if you click on it you can actually purchase the package if you want.

Yes, I tried that and it did give me the option to purchase it. Thanks for the confirmation everyone

I was looking at drink packages for our March 28, 2021 Spring break cruise on Harmony . We normally get the soda package for all 4 of us, since we don't drink much, maybe 1 or 2 alcoholic drinks for the entire cruise. Anyways, the site is saying my wife purchased the unlimited drink package, but it doesn't show a purchase date or price and when I looks at My Calendar, it doesn't show up and looking at order history, it only shows the Oasis cabana, which we purchased for the family. Can I assume this is an error with Royal's website. I checked 3 days ago and just now and it still shows the same thing and I didn't receive an email from Royal as well for the purchased drink package, but did received an email for the Oasis cabana we purchased.

My kids love the French Onion soup, but alot of times the temperature of the soup is way too hot and they end up adding an ice cube to cool is off. The other soups are never  that hot. Also, the chilled soups were my favorite, they usually remind me of melted ice cream or a smoothie. The strawberry was my favorite. 

I also miss the 3 salad dressings the assistant waiter came to your table with each night, so you could have as little or as much as liked on your salad. Each night was 3 new dressings

Happy with no mention of masks

1. No          2. No        3 yes

Love it. Can't go wrong with the bacon trough

Yes, they do them on Alaska cruises

I’ve always assumed that it didn’t matter the cruise line, destination, or length, they’ll find a way to get a T-shirt sale in. 

if there's money to be made a business will try to make money

I haven't been on an Alaska cruise yet, but even on our Mediterranean and Scandinavia cruises they had the 2for$20 sale and port Tshirts relevant to our specific cruise (along with the usual generic royal caribbean shirts). I assume alaska will be the same!

Thanks, I'm also, still looking for a Royal sweatshirt. Again , never seen one on a Caribbean cruise

Does RCCL do the 2 for $20 t-shirt sales on Alaska cruises.?All my cruises have been caribbean, but we are using our FCC from our cancelled March 2020 cruise for a June 2021 cruise in Alaska. If they do the sale, should I assume they would be Alaska port t-shirts.

We received out FCC on April 25 for our cruise and a refund for our shore excursions, but still waiting for our airfare refund to hit the credit card from Royal's airfare program

I'm still hopeful that RCL will stick with June 12 (Of course, my next cruise is June 12).  I'm thinking these two announcements were just that they're not ready for the next couple of weeks and it makes more sense to push it out to ensure they are ready.

Since RCL had already pushed to June, maybe they'll stick with it.  Or maybe I'll join the growing ranks of those disappointed souls that have to push their much anticipated vacations out to a future date.

I'm in the same boat.I have a June 12th on Harmony . Crossing fingers

I have a June 14th on Harmony, cross my fingers, since I'm still mourning my March Freedom cruise being cancelled

Sign me up, the more sea days and beach days the better

I'm in for certain.  We were supposed to sail today on the Liberty of the Seas out of Galveston.  

We were on Freedom today out of San Juan

Just curious on people’s thoughts on not canceling their up coming cruises! Still plan on going next Sunday... I hope anyways! 

Stay safe

We're still planning on going on our Freedom cruise on March 22. The entire family is health (cross our fingers it continues), so no concerns for us.

Freedom out of San Juan

Thanks for the photos. We're on the March 22 freedom cruise. Following as well.  Really wondering about number of people on the ship and how many cancelled

Wow !  Thanks for the shots inside the lifeboats.  I couldn’t figure out what they were....and then finally read your post !  It seems the floor boards are up and they show the battery banks.  Very interesting 

Same here. I went to the photos before reading what the photos were. Very interesting and its a pretty tight fit for anyone in one of those things

First, @Lisa0710, welcome to the forums!

Next, it's an advisory, not a mandate.  If you fall into the categories of susceptible people (elderly, immunocompromised, underlying health issues), then you may want to take that advice seriously.  I would personally still go if I had a cruise booked (assuming I could get a letter of agreement signed by my petsitter that she'd stay on the job should I end up on a quarantined ship!), because I don't fall into any of those high-risk categories.  The choice is really up to you.  

Happy cruising (whenever that will be!)

We're going on Freedom on Mar 22 out of San Juan and we always kennel our dogs. Since its Spring Break, the kennels are usually completely full with a waiting list in Mar / April and they probably don't want to hold our dogs for 2 more weeks. The cost would be pretty ugly.  If your a normal healthy adult you should be good to go. That's our plan at least.
