As a person who had a long hard fight with cancer and was left feeling like I could die any minute, I get a lot of comfort from my small 5 lb poodle. I love my Doberman also but my poodle has really helped me. It's hard to go from actively dying for a couple years to "hey you're okay". I have passed my 5 year mark so I really am okay.
But...my dog is not an emotional support animal. I'm sorry, but if someone wants to classify a dog as a support animal, you better spend a few hours training them every day. EVERY DAY. They should be able to be quiet. They should be 100% house broke. They should have several AKC, or the equivalent, training certificates. They should be flawless on a leash. Above all, they should never be a danger to others, never should they be uncomfortable around any person, any dog, or anything. 
Otherwise they are a pet. I do train my dogs. I believe my dogs do meet that criteria, but for the time frame of a cruise, and I have done long ones, I am okay with out Ziggy, and certainly he is better at the vet's office with his Dober brother. I know it is stressful for me and for my dogs to be away from each other. Plus since they go to my Vet while we are gone, it's a lot of extra money, but even as well trained as my dogs are, I don't know for absolute certain that Ziggy wouldn't bark at times, and that would be wrong.
I will also point out that people are now selling "real" service animal kits, with a "real" Vet's letter, for people to cheat their untrained dogs into places they do not belong.
 

If you have airfare included then the id needs to match the tickets. 

I haven't seen it mentioned yet but on return you can bring your car down to level one in the garage before exiting and pick up your luggage right next to the machines where you pay. They have a designated spot just for this. I left the DW to watch the luggage and I went to get the car.

Correct!  The only thing you'll have to carry is what you plan to carry on.  The porters will even take the bags straight from your trunk/hatch, and they won't even grumble about it for a small gratuity! 😉
In your situation, I'd be more concerned about disembarkation than drop off.  Even there, if you just look for the porters you'll be in good hands.  Well worth the money you'll tip them.

I guess there really is no question that demand is way up for this summer...

Which ship?
If its Anthem 10 will get me 20 you will be in the parking garage.  Other ships may be kin the open lot.  If you are in the open lot, pay for a porter when you debark.  When we do the covered we don't pay for porters ....hubby and I get the luggage and than I wait by the garage as he runs to get the car and brings it down to loading level.  Open air out door you will want to pay for a porter bc you can't drive the car closer and it's more of a haul....2 min walk in the sun, but when you are talking multiple luggage bags, carry ons and a stroller its a pain.  The covered garage less than  a min. and they can stand in the shade.

On my last cruise, by Wednesday my waiter would ask me, "and which two desserts will you be trying tonight?"

@Zoe Renee Welcome to the Royal Caribbean Blog Forum!
It sounds like you have a valid charge card account and an active account number.  Even if you don't have the physical card, you may be able to log in to you credit card website and obtain your new/updated card information there.  Also, it is worth noting that whenever you want to make final payment with a different card than you made your deposit with, then you need to contact your TA if you have one or Royal directly if you don't.  They don't know what they don't know...

Yeah, I think I'm fine with that decision 😄

Not sure if you've seen it already or not, but there's a whole subsection on the boards dedicated to Celebrity (and Silver Sea).  It's not as active as the Royal threads, but there's lots of good info there:

I did not. Thank you.

On a computer, in the top right corner of your Cruise Planner, you should see your initials in a circle.  If you click on that circle, you get a drop down menu, and "Order History" is the 2nd selection.  That should give you access to all of your past purchases.  Word of warning, it will NOT tell you what you paid per person, just your total paid.  You'll have to do the math yourself for individual prices. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Chill. They cut and paste guidelines so folks can read and interpret for themselves.
If the iHealth telehealth proctored results contain all the information required by Royal, there's no reason to assume they wouldn't be accepted.
Nowhere does it say the Abbott tests are required. They put the clarification out there as Abbott has an at-home test with a nearly identical name to the one that comes with the proctor. Abbott also produces the ID-NOW which is one of the NAAT tests that labs and pharmacies had available, so Royal just wanted to make it clear which Abbott tests were acceptable. Doesn't mean they are the only accepted ones.
Plenty of labs are using different branded tests. The crucial part is that the results have all the info Royal indicates is required.

Because so many people have abused the "emotional support animal" moniker, they are no longer allowed many places.  The use of them is so broad, and the training for them varies so widely that many, many, are not suitable to be in a public setting. Are yours? Quite possibly.  Most that I have seen simply are not. Many people also fake ESAs, which, of course, makes it difficult for those who have a legitimate need for them.  ESAs do not have the same rights by law that service animals do, therefore, by law, they do not have to be admitted into public settings.   
From the AKC website:
"Unlike service dogs owners, ESA owners have only limited legal rights and those typically require a letter of diagnosis from the owner’s doctor or psychiatrist. While they don’t have unlimited access to public spaces, the Fair Housing Act mandates “reasonable accommodations” for emotional support animals even in buildings that don’t allow pets. As of January 2021, airlines are no longer required to accommodate emotional support animals."

The simple answer is because of those who abuse the system. 
Those who unlike you who dont need a service animal but say they do just so they can take it everywhere they go. Its because of these people that rules change
 

And Emotional Support Animals are not even Service Animals.  They are not covered by ADA.

I was just being diplomatic 😀 really wanted to say because of all the selfish gits who abuse the system and think rules dont apply to them as they are better and more deserving than others! But i refrained and went with the diplomatic approach! 😉

It's Symphony. I found it. Had to not be on the mobile version of the site. Thanks.

Super easy as Brian B says above! Just got off Anthem this morning. It is exactly as stated.  It does get a little busy around 12 on embarkation day. Cost for a seven day cruise is $175.

Lol No.
I'm just saying, in a sort of factious manner, that not winning over that period, coupled with everything else, made it the worst one of my cruises
