Just a note, honestly I think people make too much of "bad cabins". There aren't these mythical just awful rooms next to the engine room or something. We have done the balcony GTY on Oasis once and loved the room we were assigned. It was close to promenade. Don't sweat it is my advice. We are waiting on a suite GTY on Liberty this September. Less of a worry with a suite but overall I think you'll be fine with a balcony GTY.

The parents are still at fault. The story is the parents were playing shuffleboard and the kid climbed up and fell in. Pay attention to you 5 year old. You cannot accidentally fall off a ship unless you are doing something you are not supposed to be.

Exactly, roll with it and it might disappear. Oh well. Maybe spend it before they take it.

Wow that's kinda strange. That can't be the case with us as we only made the deposit and finally payment isn't due till 2026 at some point. Our cruise has dropped nearly 500 bucks too.

33.63 is a very strange number. Wow.

Huh this is very strange. I just logged in for fun as I always do to just check out our upcoming cruises and our Oasis cruise May 2026 has an unexpected 25 dollar cruise planner credit. does that just happen sometimes? I don't remember it happening on any other cruise but hey I'll take it. So along with this cruise dropping nearly 500 bucks we get a 25 dollar cruise planner credit. I don't think I got an email or anything, it just appeared.

Yes! Exactly this! it's so strange. The parking contact on the Port Liberty website seems to have no clue about pre pay or paying by your phone or Metropolis. It's really like the Twilight zone.

We have the "Taste of Caribbean" this Sept on Liberty for much cheaper than it is now. We got it on a sale.

Another extremely small drop today. Every little bit helps.

Honestly I think they are pretty lenient with that kinda stuff except alcohol. As long you you don't bring 10 cases of soda I think they let a bunch slide. Alcohol no, that will be a problem. I could be wrong but that kinda what I see especially from Port Liberty where we sail from.

Its 49 bucks for Diamond and above for our Liberty cruise in Sept.

I'm not gonna get into the political crap but are there any cruises that begin and end in Canada or at the very least begin in Canada? I know there a few from the US to Canada and end in Canada.

And another nice drop today! We are down nearly 500 bucks since booking. 4,015 and now it's 3,571. I'm super glad because 4 grand brothered me. It just bothered me and this is way more digestible.

well one was 10 and the other was just over 6 months, oops. That was 2022. I'm super bad with remembering ages as the older I get I try to forget my own.

My boys did. One was probably 10 and the other was oh a year and half.

Starlink was SUPER fast the first few times we used it but the last two cruises were a JOKE. Too slow and too expensive to be that slow. This was Liberty and the fast few cruises were on Liberty and the last few slow ones were on Liberty so its not the ship.

We sailed on Adventure right out of covid and LOVED it but we have a fondness for that class of ship because our Honeymoon was on Explorer. Oh boy did we love Explorer.

Some people do 100 bucks per day tip? Holy wow.

But I just found this so i guess not. No, teens do not need to be pre-registered for the Adventure Ocean teen program on Royal Caribbean cruises, but they do need to check in at the teen lounge to receive a wristband. This wristband allows them to participate in activities and access the lounge. Teens can come and go from the lounge and organized activities as they please, with no sign-in or sign-out required

That is a very good question because I know they can go in and out as they please but I'm not sure if they actually have to be registered. I'm guessing they probably do?

That makes total sense. As far as cruises being oversold I kinda think two ways, how does that happen and I can understand how it happens because I mean if cruises are being sold a rapid pace I would think it would be hard to keep track of what is left. If some TA from Idaho sells 5 cabins maybe it doesn't come off the website/list right away. I mean I may be thinking about simplisticly but that's how I imagine this kinda thing happens. I figured be WAY off though

So I periodically for fun check to see what is left for our Liberty cruise to Bermuda Sept 27th. For a week or two now suites have been sold out. We have Suite GTY. Doesn't this suggest that there isn't much movement going on and Royal UP barring a cancelation is extremely low? Wouldn't it also suggest they have us penciled in somewhere we just don't know it or been informed in case there is some movement? I'm not impatient I'm more fascinated by the GTY process.

Classic! The movie The Aviator was great, and Leo was awesome in it but that was not half of the story of Howard Hughes life. It got really crazy, buying to half of Vegas and then the Bahamas and getting hooked up with a strange group of people.

Yes, that's what a read. They bought some old defunct hotel that Howard Hughes owned and lived in before his death which is interesting history. 300 million bucks, and it says it's being developed for Celebrity cruises.

Yes, I will take it. One or two drops were so small I honestly couldn't even tell. I was like I thought that was the price before this drop. But I'm down about 400 in total since we booked which is something I never expected.
