  1. There is one for 28 March 24.
  2. We aren't there yet in 2025. As for 2024, you can search for compass by ship if you use link above in header. Just a thought, I do it all the time.
  3. It's on the island. No pyramids, but interesting foundation ruins. Worth a visit. Can be offered with chocolate tasting, beach, or other attractions. No ferry needed!
  4. Super. We'll be in Alaska in May for just cruising and our TA is coordinating a lot for us.
  5. Last month the handheld device scanning us on the ship had trouble reading bar code on both paper and phone. It took several attempts with both. Glad we had both.
  6. If you booked with a TA, your agent can answer questions about your specific arrangements.
  7. Status doesn't affect luggage group, per se, but travel plans you report do. People taking Royal transfer, for example, are assigned times for their bus. I am guessing you aren't Key or suite guests. At any rate folks are encouraged to leave rooms early and wait in designated areas until group is announced. Times are also shown on TV and in a handout provided the night before disembarkation.
  8. You should be fine. Videos I've seen show a lot of activity until ship sails. Vendors want the $$.
  9. We have booked two river cruises and will try Oceania again. However, discounting the included amenities, you will pay 100 or more per night for "smallness", and Viking overcharges for extended stays before or after the cruise. So Royal can be competitive on the right itineraries, typically with smaller ships.
  10. I would make sure my travel insurance covered the flight just in case.
  11. Be sure to see what the specific documentation requirements are for insurance. Is one doctor's statement enough?
  12. If you are thinking of getting a junior suite, do it in advance for the double points. Using Royal Up to move up to a Junior Suite won't get you double points. I think moving up to a balcony could be useful because of the extra space, but Oasis class ships have so many types of balconies you can usually do that in advance, too. In the end, I think the extra $$ for a bid up might be more useful spent on specialty dining or a nice excursion. Just a thought.
  13. You can buy a blow-up plastic container to pack bottle in suitcase. I have used that before.
  14. 515 according to latest cruise compass. There is a link to compasses above in the header.
  15. I have had itinerary changes that forced this. Maybe you'll be at San Juan on a different day.
