Giovanni's Wine Bar Menu is not included in the UDP on Wonder.

Was there always gratuity on VOOM when combined with a beverage package?  I was just looking at prices for my cruise and I selected beverage with VOOM and there was gratuity added.  The package without VOOM, the gratuity was lower.
Or this just an accounting error?  
 

As you already know, the beverage generates the gratuity. As for its calculation, perhaps the VOOM was discounted in the package and the soda remained full price (e.g., higher than the soda sale price).  No one seems to understand Royal Math...  I do agree with you that the gratuity on the package seems too high, so your question is a good one!

I thought this at first, but with the gratuity about $17 higher, the soda price would be about 90CAD higher... which doesn't make sense to me.  it is almost like the soda is being charged (for gratuity purposes) at the on-the-ship price or something.

Looks like you selected the Voom and soda package.  Both in one package with the tips added 

Out of curiosity, I checked on this.  It appears to me that on the backend side of the bundle, the beverage package portion of it is discounted less compared with purchased by itself while the internet package portion is discounted more than when bought alone.  So even though there's a lower overall price with the bundle, the gratuities are higher because the beverage package portion of the bundle is getting less of a discount.

you can order just drinks at Wonderland.  They have a bar there were you can go in and just have drinks and use your drink package.

Some of my prices actually went up from the previous sale last week.  Royal has the best sales!! LOL

Most of them do.

On Wonder of the Seas the secret was out about the Solarium Bistro.  Went there for Breakfast a few times and it was so crowded and so noisy.  Believe or not, went to the Windjammer, it was peaceful, no lines and everyone was patient and calm compared to The Bistro.  The new design for Windjammer on Wonder is great I was impressed with it.  I never went to Windjammer on any of my cruises but I did on this cruise and I was not to traumatized.
You can make reservations for the evening meals once onboard in the App.  It definitely was not as crowded as it was during breakfast.  The few times we ate at Hooked we could see down and it seemed very pleasant.

The crossing has been excellent, the crew steered us around the growing storm. Weather was great we had a shower four afternoons or late evening.  Terms were about 17-20⁰c around 73⁰ most days.  For the northern country people on board it was not so bad.  The solarium was full every day 
The time changes loosing an hour every other day sometimes 2 days in a row was hard.  Having lunch then if you were booked for dinner early I would change it.  
Going west you gain an hour so they say going back the other way is better.  I will find out in the fall.
The only downside with the cooler weather more people inside has helped spread COVID.  Captain says 3% of the passengers on board are positive and that's just the ones who went and got tested.  Noticed alot more coughing etc... last few days..
It's has been great trip would recommend it for sure.  A very relaxing and fun cruise.
 

I was just on Wonder of the Seas for 14 days and they were never rented out.  They had a sign up after day 2 offering it for $50 per day and they were still not rented.  I can see if it was more private but you have chairs on both sides of you and people walking by.  If it is shade you are after there are lots of chairs in the shade because most guests are after the sun.
It comes with 2 drinks from the bar as well.

Boarding in Barcelona is very easy as the cruise port is in the city $20 Euro cab ride from most hotels. Leaving from Rome you have to go the port city of Civitavecchia.  I have not left from Rome yet so I can not comment on that but I am sure it is not difficult.

Most definitely!

Missing Nassau is worth almost anything....

I think skipping Nassau is worth avoiding 5 days of 20 foot seas

Wonder of the Seas has dropped Nassau as a stop on Wonder of the Seas Transatlantic April 20, 2022.
I am sure I will still enjoy the cruise!
 

@Shane D Go to your cruise planner click view boarding pass, then click print luggage tags.

I would bring 2 European travel plugs that would give you 2 more outlets to use and if you are looking for mostly charing things you can a USB that will be ok to use.
