It appears at this time the web page and app are having a malfunction.

January 16th 2025 Odyssey of the Seas 11 nights.

Seems like this has to be answered by RCL management. I believe Mr Bailey is on Facebook. Maybe he can clarify what we the customers are paying for with our gratuity. Hopefully this document is not correct.

That’s what’s really nice about this forum. I don’t think I would have ever seen that addition to the app.

On one of our cruises next year we will be diamond. My question is do you have to use your vouchers on any purchase or can you choose to not use them. I enjoy fresh squeezed orange juice with my breakfast and we always get a few bottles of water. Those are included with the UDP. Can we save our vouchers for four drinks of our choosing.

I was looking at the club for our June 2025 on SOS. We’ve been there twice and totally enjoyed especially lunch. The only thing the highest I paid was$80.00 a person in 2022. Seems like the price for the club is getting a little ridiculous. I’ll definitely watch prices for our June 2025 cruise stopping there.

Obviously my sense of direction was off kilter in my response. I was talking the northeast not northwest.

She’s not a new ship but SOS has been sailing out of port liberty. I’m also sailing on SOS June 2025.

We are cruising for the first time out of Port Liberty for the first time January 16th for 11 nights. I said to the wife wouldn’t it be nice if it was snowing as we left port. After this cruise we have two more leaving via of Port Liberty in 2025. Tired of paying airfare to leave out of Florida.

just wondering what would everybody’s thoughts are having a ship/cruise review forum added.

The wife and daughter were really looking forward to this excursion. Unfortunately what was not very well stated when booking was you only have two hours on site.The gardens are just too big to really enjoy them in only two hours. I just felt that was money not well spent for this excursion.

Just got off Ovation August 23 from an Alaska sailing. We ate in the MDR five nights with a party of five. All five meals were delicious and hot when served. As a group we ate in Izumi and for the wife and I our first real foray into sushi. The waiter was fantastic especially with our grandson. So the wife and I will be eating in the Izumi again in January on Odyssey. Chops as always great service and food. One thing we did decide when possible we will eat breakfast in the MDR why put up with the craziness in the Windjammer.

When I’ve seen it it’s in cans. And actually I’ve found it once in the beer cart they push around.

My grandson is traveling with daughter and son in law. He asked is there a way to restrict his card from making purchases on board.

I have my cards set up for alerts on any internet purchases with a text message. It’s incredibly fast my wife can make a purchase sitting next to me and with 15seconds I get a text. Also an alert for any other purchases for over $50.00. just a suggestion to help monitor your cards in this digital world.

I’m sorry but for those of us who do not live near Florida I don’t really care. I’m not going to travel to Florida to sail a 3 or 4 night cruise on any new ship. It’s just not worth the expense. Royal at some point should rethink ship positioning for the rest of the country.

August 16th Ovation of the seas

I’m in Pennsylvania so I believe check in would open at 3am for me. Hoping I’m wrong

I am thinking about purchasing the 10 picture package. We are traveling with my daughter son in law and grandson. Can they be included in say a family embarkation photo or any other pictures with them. The package says it only includes those staying in your cabin.

Wow what competitor paid him to post that rant.

First time on Quantum class ship.

Apparently the bistro only is closed. Not very happy about this no notice when you book about it. Wife and I enjoyed this spot on several other cruises.

I was looking at cruises including Bermuda. I’m curious as to why they all seem to stay overnight.

We just returned from a 8 night cruise on this great ship. The big question is always food. Six nights we ate in the main dining room. Now we are not what you call foodies but we were happy with each meal. The wait staff we had were great and very accommodating to requests. Another night we ate in Chops need I say anymore more. Delicious meal and staff. We did the hibachi another night great time and great meal. For a relaxing breakfast some days try the main dining room it did not disappoint. Entertainment Hiro again tops the list as a must see. Hairspray although a little long was great. Also the 2.0 ice skating show is another not to miss. The adult comedy show was just that adult comedy. The crew once again was fantastic friendly and just fun. Overall a fantastic 8 nights on board.

Hopefully it carries across the fleet. We have 8 night on SOS coming up and 11 on Odyssey next year. Hopefully nobody harasses the crew when they do this.
