My wife and I will arrive in Sydney on Sunday the 19th. We will be sailing on Ovation thursday the 23rd. We are from Louisiana in the USA. Looking forward to this trip for many years. Hope to meet other travelers from USA on trip.

Wife and I will be on this Cruise with my stepson and a friend. We have been to these ports many times. Last time we were in Roatan, we got a taxi to take us to the WEST END to ole seaside village where I went diving years ago in the 1970's. In Puerto Costa Maya we went on private tour to MAYA CHAN beach resort. Loved this place. Not the best beach and the sea grass was bad when we were there but what a relaxing time and the lunch is to die for. In Cozumel we alway do the same thing after all these years. We take taxi into San Miquel to a place on MAR Y JUANA restaurant/bar. We alway have the fish taco's and Mojito's while overlooking shoreline.

Had the same thing happen to me on Allure of the Sea's from Galveston on April 9th. First indication that I got was notice from RCCL that cancelled All Access Tour on ship, Spa Massage for wife, and Voom + Stream internet package. Notice said I would be refunded to original Credit card for purchases in 10 to 14 days.... Later my two rooms for cruise with family were cancelled. Called travel agent, and they worked it out after talking with 7 different people at RCCL over 2 hours on phone.....Hold on it gets better.... Later I got email saying my stepsons room has a balance due of ( I can't remember how much.) I knew this was BS cause I had my TA pay off both rooms with credit card previously. I knew it was paid off because my Credit Card online account said RCCL had been paid balances due on both rooms.... Sad thing now is my stepson's room is on a different floor now cause they had cancelled it, and had to give me another room.... I quess my son has to pay for someone else's mistake. Not a WOW experience this LOYAL ROYAL customer wanted.. Just so you know, this is not my first rodeo on a cruise ship. So I am going to show up in Galveston like I have 10 times before and I hope they let me on the ship. Lets see how it goes from there.

My wife and I stay at Springhill Suites by Marriott in Webster, just south of Houston many times. It is just one block off interstate with many different restaurants nearby. We get up eat breakfast and in 32 mins be at Cruise Terminal.

Put her mind at ease. She will be as Diamond as my wife and I. We will be on Liberty that same week and hope to meet you.

Praying for this family. Praying also for the crew on Freedom of the Sea's. My wife and I have cruised on Freedom 3 times since 2003. Freedom and the crew is one of the best of the 10 RCCL cruise ships we have been on. I know these window and I am positive that this is Truly a very tragic accident. As a grandfather, I can't wait to bring my 4 yr old granddaughter on her first cruise. I know it will be RCCL and I hope it will be Freedom of the Sea's. Leaving Aug. 11 on similar ship Liberty of the Sea's .
