As long as the rooms are adjacent it won't be a problem; I have done this many times.

TBH, I would not rely on Royal Caribbean to have the right answer either. These boards are full of people that have been screwed because the cruise line gave them errant information about customs and immigration concerns.

"I Was Cheap and Did Not Buy Insurance" There, I fixed the title for you. Sorry man, this is all on you, the rules are crystal clear when you make that deposit. I hope your wife's partner recovers with no issues.

As is Martinique

No one said their work was cut in half, they are saying the service WE THE CUSTOMER receives has been cut in half.

Can you elaborate on what "non optional" costs you are encountering after paying your cruise fare? I can't think of a single one

I will agree 100%, everyone deserves kindness, respect, and dignity

They are employed because I patronize their employer. Anyone paying a cruise fare is helping hundreds of thousands

Of course the crew deserves proper compensation (some deserve gratuities), however the examples you used are performing tasks that are the bare minimum that I expect to be included in my fare. Clean decks, vacuumed stairwells, sanitized public areas, clean linens, clean plates and cutlery; none of these services deserve anything more from me other than my cruise fare.

Increased twice since the reduction of stateroom service

You can NOT use the card at the Starbucks kiosk on the ship. It can only be used at the café on board, depending on the ship that could be Cafe Promenade or a similar outlet. They serve basic espresso based drinks (mocha, macchiato, latte) and some Frappuccino variant. Note, the Frappuccino is often dis allowed on the punch card. Also, some drinks, depending on number of espresso shots, will require nmore than one punch on your card, making it a less than optimal fiscal arrangement.

No, not aghast at all; quite excited to be honest.

You get Elite perks on Celebrity. @smokeybanditposted the PDF that tells you everything.

A "problem" that is easily solved with a USB charging hub, no problem

You got lucky, that is as banned as it gets

Welcome Chat GPT

agreed

For sure

IMHO there is NEVER a good reason to book with Royal Caribbean directly. Travel agencies offer so much more in benefits.

Back To The Future

Flip-side being, in an election year, candidate trolling for the labor vote, will be very supportive of unions and support a work stoppage.

This will be fine

AHHH, I agree, that is odd

Why would you consider this odd? The device does not change the number of outlets

"This was the worst cruise ever, because the destination looked like GREENLAND!!??!!"
