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.

Mine dropped a days ago, Maybe Thursday by 11 bucks. I haven't checked though because the TA does it and applies automatically.

I mean that would make sense with them pouring money into Nassau.

Isn't Royal building a beach club at Freeport Bahamas as well? Are some ship gonna stop there and some in Nassau? I wonder how that is gonna work? Freeport is kinda boring I thought?

Not only all those points which I could not agree with more I'm hoping with the new beach club and lots of suckers the ship will be even more empty. The last few times we went and stayed on the ship a lot of people had the same idea so the ship wasn't quite as empty as we would like or as other ports would be.

I don't follow stocks much but are you telling me Royal Caribbean stock was in the 20s? and now is 300+? Wish I followed that and bought a bunch. Boy at that time though it was hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel for cruises though.

Well I was excited to check this out next May when we are on Oasis but not at these prices. In my opinion they kinda made the pricing confusing. I think staying on the ship is still the plan as of now.

We are definitely getting them when we go on Oasis May 2026. Wish Liberty had them and the technology but they don't yet. We are kinda excited to check them out.

Yes, and that is calculated right. A 4 day Halifax cruise was 8 points and a 7 day Coco Cay was 14 points.
