So I just tried it... I had to click through all the boxes again, name, state, DOB... all of them, just click on one, then click through them all... see if that works.  They autofilled, but I still had to "touch" them all to get the box to turn blue

Unless this is some elaborate trip overseas with a huge group and a lot of coordination with flights, cruises, etc....I would just use any competent one with good reviews that gives you the best deal. This is booking a cruise, not brain surgery. Things like linking reservations and looking up a C&A number is pretty baseline competency that anyone should be able to do.
I only use a TA to get the best possible rates. They don't really do anything beyond that for me. 

@CrimsonCruiser I don't have an actual answer for your question, but unless you're booking 6+ rooms, you might be overthinking the complexity. You can link the rooms yourself in the cruise planner once you have the reservation numbers. If everyone knows their C&A number and level, it should be fairly easy to send that to your current TA.
I could be overlooking something, so hopefully a TA on the boards here will chime in.

I don't think the rooms have the kind of kitchenette you're thinking of (with cooking spaces and sinks) so my guess would be no. Also, the only dishes one would really expect to do would be personal water bottles, the freestyle cup for the soda machine and maybe baby bottles

We made it! It’s just a super fast line. There are signs everywhere. From the taxi drop off to being on ship was 6 minutes. We never stopped moving! 

As far as I know they are random, but all facets of the pre cruise check in must be completed, including health questions.  There will be a separate seating area until boarding commences and from what I was told will be boarded after Suites/Pinns/Key.

I work at Port Everglades.  This is a TEST program only on Freedom at the moment.  It is similar to the Expedited arrival that Royal was doing prior to Covid shutdown.  We have not heard results from the test yet, but if all goes well they will be rolling it out ship by ship.

Suddenly motivated to add my Photo for our Sunday sailing.  In the past they have always had to re-take it at the terminal, so we stopped doing it.  I guess its worth a try.
Can't wait to hear what the perks were.

Probably something you can pay to purchase in the future...

Suddenly my boarding pass is USELESS! 

While I was 100% content just a moment ago, now I feel like my life is less until I too get Express Boarding.

Sitting here at 743pm it just started it's 730 trip!  And I'm already done with seat!  Wow!  A school stadium bench has this beat!

One additional point/correction from Oasis herself...  It only boards on 2 levels 5 & 8.  We found the schedule to be quite reilable on Oasis when it was actually running.  They really only run Rising Tide in the PM like 5-10PM or so.

I would LOVE this. I think the doghouse was a good idea but it's kinda meh on flavor and options and I will forever be bitter about the fact that there's nothing like a Chicago Dog offered lol
 
ooooohhhhhh that hurts! I think more people are realizing how great of a grab they are and demand skyrockets the price. Truly, they aren't worth more than $90 per person in my opinion (but I'm also rather cheap hahaha) so even for 4 people I'd max out at $360

They should just charge an even 10.00 and be done with it- no mention of service charges, gratuities, whatever... it's 10 bucks- get what ya want! 

Blasphemy! I really like the chicken sandwiches too but funnel cake is the one thing you won't find anything remotely close to on the ship! I want pics in your live blog!
My dying wish is for RC to put a Snack Shack on the Boardwalk of Oasis class. Ditch the Dog House! 🤣

If you can get a bungalow at Labadee for about $150 I highly recommend it. It gives all the feel of a cabana at a massive fraction of the cost and the access to the less used area of the beach means you can soak, float or splash with less people around.
We did it on our last trip and it made the whole experience a MILLION times better.

Welcome to the boards!
Having no Playmakers is the worst, but OceanAria is the best. But considering you are new to RC, the best and worst from seasoned cruisers won't really matter as you should go into the experience with the most open mind. Something that is the best/worst for someone else might be the opposite for you. I would suggest looking at Matt's blog and post about the Allure. 

According to the link in the above article features of the original plan for her amplification was
"...Portside BBQ, Playmakers Sports Bar & Arcade, El Loco Fresh, Sugar Beach, and the Bionic Bar....the Music Hall... and Spotlight Karaoke..."among other things like the water slides I'm sure.
 
I do wonder if they'll keep those plans given the new things that have been unveiled recently as well as general response to things like the bionic bar and (my personal issue - the design of dazzles as music hall)

So Amazon is great for simple and inexpensive ones:

Finally - I highly recommend StateroomStatements.com. They have lots of base designs that you can add your family name to, but also make fully customized ones as well and are willing to alter their base designs too (I liked their "drink package diva" design but wanted it to read "diamond diva" and they were happy to change the text and even the background color to match my specifications AND to put a rush on it so I had it in time for our cruise last year).

My Wife is on Oasis right now with a high school friend.  And using these same magnets, here's her door creation.
