Vancity Cruiser

I for one would actually start gambling on cruise ships if the casinos were entirely smoke free.  So I wonder how many current gamblers would quit and how many new ones would start...

You're lucky i'm not in charge, i would ban smoking indoors (to include the casino) and make the only place for smoking, in the aft (designated section) upper decks.  If you get caught smoking in a non-authorized location, you would be dropped off at the next port.  I'm surprised that Royal Caribbean hasn't been sued yet, by an employee that has been diagnosed with cancer from second hand smoke due to improper ventilation in the casinos.

This is fantastic! Was very disappointed by the rumors that there would be no aqua show.
BTW we will be on the same cruise

Thanks for the detailed comparison! Really looking forward to my first celebrity cruise in May. hoping for a low key relaxing getaway.

I feel this post may be intended as satire (at least I hope it is). If not, it seems as though you enjoy a lot of the different amenities and dining options available on ships. the reason for the 30 minute chair rule is so that other guests may enjoy the pool areas while you are off enjoying the other amenities.

This is so pathetic, grown ass man acting like a spoiled child/teenager. What kind of an adult acts like this?! Why not enjoy your cruise? As if the captain is purposely missing ports to spite the passengers. Wanting a full refund on a cruise that was probably already discounted if it was sailing in an a stormy season. Its like cruising the Caribbean in September/October, cruises are a little cheaper and odds are pretty good that your itinerary will be changed due to storms/hurricanes. Regardless there is absolutely no reason for an adult to be acting like this.

That response about people looking for chairs being "unreal" says it all. I'm looking for a chair and can't find one near the pool and others are out to lunch and actually  think that they  can block someone else from enjoying the pool while they  go to lunch at chops. I"m speechless!

Entertainment for my Allure sailing just opened yesterday at 86 days out........however, no aqua show showing available. Not sure whats up with that. Got 5 other shows booked so hopefully if the aqua show opens up it is available on one of the 2 free nights or I'll have to do some shuffling.

The Bermuda Triangle is indeed a terrifying stretch of ocean.
Every time I've crossed it, buffet lines were long... the casino went all take-my-money... I was up-sold on everything imaginable...
Crazy dangerous.

This happens a lot, doesn't it? The usual pattern of events, from what I've seen, is Join > Vent > Disappear.
Sorry to the OP that RC didn't meet expectations, but, as @Ray said, you should've found and come to this blog sooner. We're all looking to advise fellow cruisers.

Couldnt help but notice you only joined this RC blog 23hrs ago, presumably just to complain and vent your anger at anyone who will listen!!
Now you dont say who told you to cruise RC but it wasnt on here so im at a loss as to why you join here to let of steam? 
It's a shame you didnt bother to join here before you cruised because if you had then you would have found the most honest, friendly and helpful bunch of people going, with vast knowledge of all things RC.
So you would have found out everything you needed to know about JOTS.
BUT YOU DIDNT!!!!!!!
So if your cruise wasnt up to what you expected thats not RC Blogs fault it's your own for not doing the necessary research before cruising. 
Given the fact you can remember Billy Bultin i can only presume you are more of an Ena Sharples ???

I really dislike Cats....

I second this. Had the same experience on Oasis but just lucky it wasn't something we knew ahead of time. Had booked it for second night but it was cancelled due to technical issues with the floor in the pool but was able to see it on the last night.

LOL.  So, those day beds go for $150 a day, and the couch I camped out at goes for $500 a day.  But, but, it’s got a TV (not pictured).  Self-proclaimed models/social influencers also started posing around the pool and walked around narrating video selfies.  Gonna go check out the pool in the West tower and see if it’s a little less douchebaggy.

I think we've all experienced these situations  and tend to handle them with a grain of salt ..... a day on a cruise in crappy weather is still better than a day at work.
Oh, and I lived through my "fun times" with Hurricane Jose back in '17
