Bean79 reacted to twangster in Port Canaveral parking question
Unfortunately the parking at PCN is poorly managed.
Many of us are finding it more convenient to get dropped off. This is especially true when not using terminal one. I have a friend who lost hours when trying to exit T5 parking. For some reason PCN has stopped using the parking kiosks so everyone has to pay as they exit and when the garage is full that can take hours to exit.
T1 is the only terminal where you pay upon entry so exiting is a breeze. However they routinely overflow to the grass surface lots for T1 which are a bit of a pain especially dragging your luggage with you after the cruise.
If you've got a ride I'd suggest you take it.
If you do park, plan to get off the ship ASAP and get out of the garage before the masses clog up the exit lanes.

Great review and a reminder to some of the more jaded members about the joys of cruising. Nothing is perfect and a week without laundry, cooking cleaning and dishes is pure heaven.

Bean79 reacted to Martini Family in Teen area and how payment works for certain things
While I appreciate your points of view I will definitely be sticking with the rule of them being together. We are a bit of a different family and we , the adults, want to enjoy our vacation too and not be checking in on them constantly. We are going with a tight budget so we did not get the internet package thus they need to stick together. Also as a rule of thumb I trust no one or their kids. For context my daughter has already had to deal with creepers at the gym while I'm standing there glaring at them. I'm not turning my 14 yr old loose with some "friends" who could leave her and her be vulnerable to an attack.
The almost 17 yr old spends most of his summer working at cub scout camp and is barely more mature than they are sometimes so I'm sure he will be fine. The 14 yr old is more mature than most 25 yr olds so if anyone will be board it will be her. They don't have to be joined at the hip and can move about the teen area but will be expected to stay together when they are out. They had no problem with this rule ( the alternative was them staying with us the whole time) and I feel fine as long as they are together because they will take care of each other. If they had friends that were coming along I would not make them stay together but it's just them. Also any day we are not at sea we will be together anyway as we have a lot planned. We all have our issues that cause us to raise our kids the way we do. For the most part we all get along just fine. We are driving 18 hrs straight through and have done this many times without killing each other so we pretty much like each other. 🙂
Thank you for the drink cost update. I was figuring about $10 each. As I said we are on a budget and upgrading the drink package past the soda was not in the budget nor did we find it necessary especially with 3 days off the ship wandering around.

Bean79 reacted to ScooterScott22 in What's your epic cruise fail?
Its a cruise, why pack underwear? Besides people are always posting that the formal night and dress codes are a thing of the past so why bother, right? The fact is it is also a space saver to not have to pack undergarments when there is so little room in the suit case.

Bean79 reacted to Ryan79 in Costa Maya or Cozumel
Just make sure to make reservations WELL in advance as they sell out all the time. People were turned away at the meeting place outside the port area who thought they could go on a whim. The look on their face was like someone slapped their momma!

Bean79 got a reaction from Weezie57 in Costa Maya or Cozumel
I believe Cozumel has the better beach but I haven't been there in years. I will be there on the Jewell in April and booked Maya Chan in costa maya.

Bean79 reacted to CrimsonCruiser in Woman accused of using stolen credit cards for Royal Caribbean cruise
On one hand...shame on her. Stealing is bad.
On the other...I get it tho! Gotta scratch that cruise itch 🤣🤣🤣🤣 (and because this is the internet and it needs to be stated, I AM joking)

Bean79 got a reaction from FireFishII in Royal cooler bags- new on the website?
Went on my Jan 20th cruise telling my wife I had a surprise for her in the room. Nice surprise. A letter stating that her tote was out of stock (even though is showed in stock on the website) and we would get an onboard credit or our credit card refunded, neither has happened!

Bean79 reacted to whitsmom in Stateroom Attendant New Policy - Independence
Once a day is fine for me as long as I have clean towels before I want to shower and the trash emptied. I make my bed as soon as we get up anyway; however, I do want ice in the morning plus some for my wine bucket. I will request (if I can) that I get my single daily service in the morning sometime. Hopefully on day one they will introduce themself and I can get my request in or find out where I can ice myself. We aren't high maintenance so if I can get it myself, then I have no issues with that.

Rooms offered through Royal Up are not necessarily available. In the off chance someone cancels that room category they would have bidders lined up to sell to last minute.

Bean79 reacted to Reigert2008 in Is it rude to heckle late comers?
Came here to say about the same thing. We were on a cruise and docked in Puerto Rico when they were bringing peoples belongings off the ship and people were heckling some of the family members that were standing around. Turns out a Royal excursion was in an accident and two members of the family were now in the hospital.
Sure, it's fun to watch the runners, but I'd caution against the heckling.

Food being undercooked is something I've never experienced on an RC ship.

Bean79 reacted to Psycho and Barb in Can I bring a portable mini freezer along for my cruise, it is for my infant babies milk?
We have taken a gallon Ziplock bag with us and filled it with ice from our room ice and put it in to our room cooler...Made a significant difference in the cooler temperature.
