A simple phone call to Royal will refund the errant charge; better yet, a perusal of your folio on the last night and handling on the ship works even better. I switched to a cash account long ago to avoid any possibility of post departure charges

Agreed. Everyone is very green conscious until they see the $$$$ sailing away.

embarkation and debarkation days overwhelm the elevators on every ship of every line

Portside BBQ has not been the success that Royal had thought it would be. You will not see it added to any further ships

Not at Coco Cay, you can leave the ship AND return to the ship with your drinks

Just because your primary insurance is refusing coverage in no way shifts responsibility to the cruise line insurance.

In March, they were offering the service from Port Everglades to Miami airport, so I would assume they would offer it going the other direction. The big difference was they would not offer it for any flights that left before one or two o’clock in the afternoon, as opposed to 11:00AM for the “in town” airport

There is no “6 month rule” associated with your particular itinerary; you are fine with your current passport (assuming you are a US citizen)

Seems like a reasonable reason to move on......................

Royal isn't losing much money, if any, by not stopping in Labadee. Ships with another sea day or a Coco Cay stop make enough to offset the days not stopping at Labadee

I have used https://scootaround.com for family personally at many embarkation points and subsequently refer my patients to them due to our excellent experiences.

You will ned to renew by mail or in person. If you don't do it soon, you will have to start over with a new application (expired 5 years or more is not renewable)

Amazingly I found out (accidentally) this weekend on the Celebrity website that one can add their pre paid gratuity at any time on their own. It amazes me some of the differences in the websites for each line.

Geo Blue is very good travel Medical insurance, and is always primary

Chances of being asked for the consent are low. That said, I personally would not depart for the trip without a notarized consent from the absent parent.
