bossdog421 got a reaction from Ogilthorpe in Booked Star Class! Oasis Ultimate Panoramic Suite! Questions...
Thanks! Yeah it's all pretty new stuff, which i love being part of. I'll be sure to do a big room review in the liveblog. Not doing an over water cabana this time, figured actually seeing the rest of Cococay will be an experience in itself. Really excited to see all the little differences between oasis and harmony now that oasis is amped. Playmakers and lime and coconut please!
Going to go back and reread some of yours and lovetos blogs to prep myself for the star class experience!

Yeah I'm excited. First time booking Star Class! For those that didn't follow along, i was just on Harmony in January for my 10 year wedding anniversary and did a live blog here it was a blast! That was our only other RCCL cruise and had a great time in our Sky Class Loft. Gotta say i was totally jealous watching those genies zip around for other groups. I knew i was going to book one just not this soon! Seeing some of these prices I just couldn't pass up the deal... seriously not even taking into account that i wont need flights this time its about half the cost of my last cruise and it's STAR CLASS and we can now celebrate wifes 4.... i mean 30th birthday! ( i get to celebrate too my 40th is next week but canceled due to covid)
This room looks like it's a newer addition as part of the amplification. It looks amazing. Has anyone here had the opportunity to stay in one of these rooms? Only 2 things are concerning me. First is no balcony. Obviously this is made up for with the insane views, just a couple floors up and we got the suite deck anyways. Second is how far it is from the suite lounge / the rest of the star class suites. From what i can tell about the deck plans EVERY other star class suite is aft. I have no issues walking across the ship to get to coastal kitchen (i plan on being more #teamCK this time but now i'll have specialty dining included so still going to be limited, no MDR at all this time!) a couple nights but I'm slightly worried about genie access with it being so disconnected for the rest of the star suites. Any input on either of those items would be appreciated.
I am ready for a vacation! Working in healthcare int he middle of all this craziness is exhausting! A September sailing seems like a pretty safe bet.
@Lovetocruise2002 Too early to start a live blog @ 5 months out?? ? . I upgraded my phone so I plan on taking a ton of pictures again!

Slightly disappointing to hear ? ... I'll have to look up that blog. Thanks!
I'm sure! Sailing is Sep 20th.. 11 days after my wife's birthday, but she didn't want to go earlier / on her birthday because of school starting. I figured pulling my 9 year old out of school 2 weeks in will be fine though lol. I'm sure it's going to be a lot of recapping first couple weeks due to how school is running right now anyways.

Meat is murder.
Tasty, tasty murder.

Thanks for this thread!
I am working with this company now to change a booking i had for next year to this year!
Also looks like I'll be doing my first STAR class cruise! ⭐?⭐
Don't want to jinx it but i really hope i can get everything transferred smoothly.

I knew it was gonna happen after my last cruise lol...
I may have jinxed myself already, not sure they can transfer the reservation and move the sailing. I got a denial on the transfer saying it was over 60 days even though the invoice is dated 2/24/20. Maybe because i used that $200 anytime booking and it was Feb 2nd when i sailed? Really hope they can move some things around and make it work! The itinerary is identical to the cruise I already had booked next year so keeping them both is not ideal here.

bossdog421 got a reaction from RCIfan1912 in Next Cruise Booked- Changing Dates?
The cruise i was talking about is officially changed to 9 night Bermuda and Northeast when attempting to book.
My wife is good with it except the rep i spoke to said it would be 100 a person to move. So not going to transfer.
I might still book but I'll sit on it for now and hope it drops more.

I should just say screw it and do the September Oasis one that i really want. If they can make us home school now no reason they cant give her some work books she can complete in the kids club while us parents have some fun!

bossdog421 got a reaction from RCIfan1912 in Next Cruise Booked- Changing Dates?
Oh man that 60 day mark is only a couple days away for me. I'll send out an email to my RCCL rep... hope she is well and still has a job!
Odd that the itinerary has changed and isnt updated on the website, looking at the booking now and it still says Canada. His is on Adventure leaving from Cape Liberty in June?

Hi Guys! Been a while... Working in healthcare right now is nuts!
Last night my wife looked at me and said, "Am i crazy for wanting to book a cruise right when this is over?" While my mind hasn't had a chance to process much besides work I instantly felt like i am ready for a vacation already. Now all i can think about, aside of work, is cruising again.. lol
On my last cruise i took advantage of the Next Cruise program. I am currently booked for a cruise in Oct of 2021. I seem to remember that one of the perks is that i could change the sailing within a certain amount of time.. though I am not 100% on that. I currently do not have access to my paperwork to check. Can anyone confirm that?
While the resume dates of sailing are still uncertain I am seeing some deals that are tough to overlook. I think May is going to be a wash, i just dont see things going back to normal, even if it is I might still have a lot of work to do to normalize the business. June.. maybe.. I see a 9 night Canada cruise in a guaranteed suite for a price that is great. Even if things aren't normal it seems the refund policy is on point. I'd like to move my next reservation from next year to this June. Hell even if it's not possible i might book it anyways.
What do you guys think?
Stay safe everyone! Remember Washy Washy!

Ships docks on day x and you are free to go off and on through to when the ship leaves the next day.
Typically the gangway is staffed 24 hours so come and go at all hours.
