A few Goalpost Margaritas and I am a FUNGI

Ironically, growing up, I hated the texture and would tell everyone that I was allergic to them. Then my mother made something and snuck them in, and well, I was allergic. A few hours at the ER and all is well. Sadness is no fries at Playmakers as they use the fryers for mushroom items.

One and done post.... Hopefully not a real person, as I would hate for this to happen to anyone.

I have a mushroom allergy and travel with my EPI pen even though I have never had to use it. Royal is horrible with allergy requests. The main dining room (dinner, not lunch) is quite good, but the rest is uncertain. I have emailed before the cruise and have filled out a special needs form. The reply states their policy, but it varies ship to ship. Oasis made my omelet at WJ in the back kitchen, since the on-stage kitchen has mushrooms; the rest just wiped the skillet out. I am lucky it is not a severe allergy, and most that has happened is hives and swelling, but I was told that as I age, it could get worse or better. So the EPI is just in case.

We did an Easter sailing 2 of the last 3 years and will again this year. We boarded each sailing on Easter Sunday and there were no special dining room menus. This year we will be on Harmony and really hope that there will be a change but we will go with the flow.

If you wanted this addressed you should have done this on the cruise. However accidents happen in any service industry and as dangerous as this could have been you were not injured. Bartenders are slinging drinks quickly. I am sorry this happened and happy that you were not injured. I would address in the post cruise survey if needed.

We received Express Boarding in October at Cape Liberty and was told that all check in was the same. We had Express last week in PC and that was amazing. Check in at bottom of stairs, then through security and just keep walking to the ship.

I just got off a B2B on Utopia and the only time my watch alerted me of sound was at the Aqua 80's too show. I did not write down a drink order at any point in 7 days and trust me I ordered many. The ship accomplished what it is meant to do and that is be the Ultimate Weekend.

It's cruise day! Hope you had a great evening at Cape Canaveral.

Safe travels! Boarding Utopia next Friday myself so looking forward to your blog.

I would receive that error when I booked with Costco Travel and the issue was they do not participate in the Royal Up program. So if you are booked with a Travel Agent I would check and see if they participate. *this was a few years ago, maybe that has changed.

We are on the 24th and 27th Utopia. Must have 7 days

You can book a refundable cruise onboard. I was having issues as every time I tried I was denied. This is from my wonder MEI agent Beth: If you want to book a refundable option what you have to do is pick a date and book that specific date and ship. Since it is refundable we can then move it to the actual date you want when you decide this later. This also removes that two month limit on when you have to decide. However, you do not get as large of onboard credit when you book the refundable deposit option. You are not the first person to be told they could not book a refundable rate. We had one of our agents speak to a supervisor onboard one of the ships to make sure that this option was still available and it is, but they are just not telling people about it.

I sailed in late November and only 3 ships were in port. Virgin, Independence and a Carnival ship....so the terminals in use were F, G and VV and the tunnel was closed. It was a traffic nightmare. Unfortunately traffic was no better for the return and many more ships in port.

I have been researching this myself as we are staying in Webster for 2 days before our cruise. Uber/lyft seems to be only options as stated above however you can also use Galveston Saltwater Moms. Check them out on Facebook. We used them in 2023 and they were great.
