nothing new to report, just excited that were are down to double digit days!

I just want to clarify something. Can we still make a special request for a certain dish. Indian Curry for example if we request it the night before? I am thinking no since they are going for a more streamlined operation. But, if its an option still I would like to be able to take advantage of it.

Are these bottles for a fee or included with a beverage package?

do we know if there is a deck plan that shows where the freestyle machines are located on each ship? Also, glad to hear the powerade is available from the machines. Hydration during a long day of drinking is super important

Anyone know where we can see a current shipboard menu for the bars on the ships? Or are the menus on the app current and accurate?

We booked this cruise back in Aug of 22, originally for Dec of 2020..... We are all looking forward to finally getting back on a ship.

@Maggie M @Wheeler825 thanks!

Double checking if I am remembering correctly that the UBP covers alcoholic drinks up to $14. Yes, no? We are sailing on Harmony. I think I read the ship class made a difference on the price too. Ive been off the boards since we had to postpone this cruise so many times I have forgot some information I read previously.

Hello, I see JR Milkshakes are listed as eligible to get with the DBP. But, I wanted to clarify if food is required to be purchased to get the milkshakes as part of the DBP or not? I know I read about it before, but I forget the answer.

Good to know, thank you. I am the one responsible for booking the shows for our party so I want to make sure I dont miss the chance to reserve them before sailing.

Anyone having luck being able to book shows on Harmony? We are still 134 days out so I am figuring we are too far out still.

sounds like a good time to me. Thanks for the feedback.

Has anyone had the chance to go here on an excursion? We have it booked for our sailing next year. I read some information over on TripAdvisor, but wanted to reach out here and see if anyone had thoughts on it. We paid for the all inclusive option, but people on the TA site said it is not as all inclusive as we might expect it to be. Any information would be appreciated.

@PPPJJ-GCVAB and @Ryan79 Thanks for the heads up. I remember from previous bookings pre-covid that the items in the CP were available a little earlier than now or right about now. I will keep watching the CP to see what comes up as we go. Thanks again.

Just to piggy back on the conversation here. About how far out will more shore excursions, activities, Perfect Day options, etc. start showing up in the CP? I am seeing a few things for our May 2023 sailing on Harmony.

Get a balcony room, at least you will have fresh air if you need to stay in your room.

This is wonderful news! We just added flights through Air2Sea knowing they could be refunded if we had to back out of our cruise due to covid rules. Harmony of the Seas here we come!

Has Royal reinstated the sushi and cupcake classes yet?

I like the list, but I think its incomplete. Mexico and Jamaica are missing. I know people can go and look for themselves. I think you they are providing a list it should have all the countries they sail to.

Doug at Cruise Radio is reporting that Bermuda is dropping vax mandate. Unvaxed must test and the travel form looks like its still being used. https://cruiseradio.net/bermuda-drops-vaccine-mandate-visitors/

Hello, What is the name of the cruise port that Royal uses in Roatan? Thanks

I am surprised that cruises from Florida were not on the 1st round of sailings allowing unvaxed individuals. I am hoping we hear something soon for Florida and the ports those cruises tend to visit. If this has been stated, my bad. TL;DR

I 100% agree to with you here. We have until the end of February for our final payment date. So IF Royal doesn't make a change then we have another option as long as NCL doesn't revert back to 100% vax requirements.

This is exciting news! I have already started looking at replacing our RC sailing for next May with a cruise on NCL. Pricing, even with the FCC we have would be close when we add in the drink packages we have to buy with RC. Not doing anything yet, but I am glad to know we have this option now.

Possibly 3 more over here. Can't say we are loyal to royal as only my wife has been on royal. I really want to experience a RC cruise, but if we get to cruise sooner on a different line then so be it.
