The quote I heard from a RC representative is that “it’s jaw dropping news totally out of left field” 🤷‍♂️

I generally ask for a bottle of water when I order a drink at a bar using one of my diamond vouchers.  I tip cash for diamond drinks so that probably helps but I have not been charged for a water yet, or had them consume one of my vouchers for the water.  

Its ok, I'll just grab em at the casino, they practically give em away if you ask as long as your Prime or above. You don't actually have to be playing in the casino at the time.

Diamond is the level to reach. Access to the Diamond Lounge and 4 drink vouchers each day of the cruise. The drinks can be had at any bar on the ship and up to $13 each. The Diamond Lounge has a light breakfast in the mornings and great appetizers from 5-8 plus a great Expresso/Latte machine for coffee all day. 
Worth trying to get to 80 cruise days to reach this level!

Yes, the pilots said so via the union. Sorry if that doesn't jive with your personal opinion, but it's the truth. Not sure who else needs to say the same thing before you believe it.
And since this thread has gone down the covid conspiracy path, it's now locked. Keep the political discussions and opinions out of this site. Thank you.

We who appreciate a good single malt are an elite few. The rest of you need your olfactory paradigm reset.

I remember when they first added Glenfiddich to the list a few years ago. It was like Christmas morning

Why not offer Hawaii cruises....they could leave from LA or SF and be a 14 day cruise with a stop in Mexico as the foreign port. 

Correct.  They stated they wouldn't do the 11-11 thing in the SL yet recent reports from cruisers say some ships are.  

This is the Allure menu I couldn't get uploaded earlier.

We were on Ovation of the Seas recently and they said we could have anything with our vouchers. It was nice to be able to order Grey Goose, Bombay, Belvedere...etc. instead of the basic menu they used to have. An extra spicy Bloody Mary is better with Grey Goose....😍  They sure know how to keep us coming back....

The beer and wine from 11am to 11pm is only on Oasis Class, right? I had read that they were going to stop this....

We went on Ovation to Alaska on Sept 24 sailing so it was quite late in season and quite cold (this coming from a Canadian) but Ovation has 2 solarium pools to enjoy no matter what the weather. The flow rider was also in operation most days with plenty of participants despite the temperature.

I just wanted to recommend anyone applying for the Shareholder OBC to do it via the PDF form and not the new electronic system. I just sent in 3 PDF's on a Saturday before noon and have already herd back on each request and the OBC has been applied and visible on my cruise planner.  I did a Google search for the PDF form and was able to download it.
I requested one last week via the electronic system and still nothing....

We sail on the Ovation for 2 weeks starting Sept. 17th....its been too long without a cruise. Really looking forward to being back on a ship.

Yes, the app requires a home address. Also, I think I may have listed my wife as a "user" when I purchased the 6-pack, but I don't remember for sure if I did. Technically, it is a prescription, so it is possible they are tracking it more carefully than it appears, at first glance.

One of the great benefits of the mRNA vaccine concept is that it's quite easy to develop a new vaccine since all the vaccine is is sending a new message to the body

I thought about that but because you have to register before you buy I would have to put my address as if I lived in the US (would this be misleading?). The other issue would be when it crosses the boarder not sure it's legal to import Covid tests... you have to declare the contents.
Hopefully they will come up with a cheaper solution....
