  1. March 17 on Harmony. Can't get here fast enough.
  2. Wait, so some people have had their refunds taken out of the paid balance? I'm one of those who is always cancelling and repricing and I've never had a problem with getting the refunds back to my credit card in a matter of days. Now you've got me paranoid about if I've been playing with fire and have just been lucky to this point.
  3. Just an FYI: Oasis class ships have now converted what used to be their jazz clubs into smoke-free casino areas.
  4. I prefer early just because (a) like others have said, I like having more free time in the evening and (b) on those nights when I might "overindulge", I don't like that feeling of trying to go to sleep when I'm still completely stuffed. That said, I lot of times I will skip MDR altogether and just head to Windjammer or Sorrentos whenever I feel hungry.
  5. Yep, pretty much anything nonalcoholic is covered. So as long as you're not ordering Bailey's or whisky shots in your drinks, you should be good to go.
  6. I'm not aware of any "official" list, but I do know that RCCL always tries to book a priest for Christmas and Easter sailings. Same with a rabbi for Hanukkah and Passover. While they obviously can't guarantee the clergy member won't have to cancel at the last minute for some reason, the odds are very good that there will be a priest on any Easter sailings. More info at RCCL FAQ: Does Royal Caribbean offer Religious Services onboard?
  7. I'm a sucker for Baked Alaska.
  8. First thing, consider what package you might purchase if you DON'T get the deluxe package. Are you a soda drinker and would get your money out of the soda package? Do you like your iced coffees and lattes and would take advantage of the refreshment package? If you think you would likely get one of those packages, you need to subtract out the cost of that from the price of the deluxe package and then decide if you would order enough alcoholic drinks to make up that difference. So many people asking this question make the mistake of "worth it" based on comparing the deluxe package to getting nothing, which is rarely an apples-to-apples comparison.
  9. BRB, off to share that quote with my wife, the math teacher!
  10. I just tell my family, when in doubt, check the British pub.
  11. If you get a promotional onboard credit from RCCL, is it only good on the ship? Or will you get it in advance to use for pre-cruise purchases? Long story short, RCCL is currently offering OBC for booking a new cruise. I booked last night for a cruise that meets all the fine print criteria, but it's not showing up in my cruise planner. So I didn't know if this was normal or if RCCL was just taking its sweet time adding it to my cruise? (The fine print does say "is applicable to cruise only", but I was a little unclear if that meant only while actually on the ship. The only other times I've ever gotten OBC, it was from a travel agent and showed up in the cruise planner.) Thanks.
  12. @Pattycruise Thanks for clarifying. I figured there had to be some kind of catch. Fortunately, I've only had to go this route occasionally so I've never run into those restrictions.
  13. Follow the instructions @PPPJJ-GCVAB posted above to access your account. There will be a "personal banker" button (or something to that effect) and one of the options will be to charge an amount to your room. Just charge the amount of your OBC (or however much cash you want) to the machine and then cash it out. Even if you don't have OBC, this also works as a way to get out cash without paying the ATM fees. You can charge an amount to your room and then cash it out instead of withdrawing cash from the ATM. (Not sure if/how much of a limit they have, but I've done this before for getting smaller amounts of cash as needed.)
