  1. Unpopular Opinion (but the truth): The new MDR menus lines up with the Windjammer menu and tastes exactly the same as in the Windjammer ………. Whatever the Windjammer is serving that night, the MDR is serving the exact same thing ……….. the only difference between the 2 is that the Windjammer has a bigger selection of food choices than the MDR menu and gets your out faster LOL The only decent dinner food anymore is at Specialty Dining or in the Coastal Kitchen (if you’re in a suite)
  2. Are you, your wife, and child not connected as a family? If you are, all 3 of you should have received the number of points received for the cruise that the one in the single room received ……. 14 ………. When you’re connected as a family you’d also all have the total nymber of points as the person in your family with the most points. For instance, 2 years ago my spouse and son were in a balcony room, I was alone in the room next door. Because we’re all connected as a family, we ALL went up 14 points after the cruise. Also, I’ve been on 5 cruises that my family hasn’t been on, but we all currently have 233 points.
  3. We have both Labor Day weekend and Columbus Day weekend booked and both of those only show the same picture you posted.
  4. We had a great time, it’s a beautiful ship ….. but there are just so many things about the Icon class that are a downgrade in your experience as compared to Oasis Class. We didn’t even mention to the kids that we didn’t care for the ship, and they all said totally on their own that they’d rather stick with oasis class from now on.
  5. I wish they weren’t replacing Wonder in PCN with Star for the 7 night trips. We were on the 2/10-17 sailing of Icon and much prefer Oasis class ships. Our group of 15 (8 adults and 7 kids from 12 to 17) were unanimous in that we would rather not sail on an Icon class ship again.
  6. Why would you want to pay dinner prices for food off the lunch menu? if they do make it for you, you’ll still have to pay the dinner flat fee pricing. Just go there for lunch lol
  7. WONDER ……… both the child pool and the waters slides are now in the same area and that makes it much easier if you have kids of different ages
  8. We just now received our email this morning …….. actually it did come last night …… I just didn’t notice it until now lol
  9. Anyone who’s been on the first 2 Icon sailings …….. When did the suite concierge reach out to you? We’re now only 5 days away from our sailing on 2/10 and still nothing. TIA
  10. Just an FYI ….. You do NOT get double points when you win a bid to upgrade from a regular cabin to a suite.
  11. The cruise itself is GREAT ……. it’s just the food that’s been very subpar. You got lucky with hot fish LOL ……. We haven’t gotten any entrees after a long wait with a temp above lukewarm
  12. ‘Being new here, you’ll quickly learn that there’s a group of people who will viscously attack you if you say anything other than everything on Royal is God’s literal gift to the universe ………. I’ve been on many Royal cruises and I agree ……the food quality has steadily declined since Covid ………. The higher the cruise prices go, the worse the food gets. I’m on Allure right now and the food in the MDR has been no better than the food in Windjammer, and that’s not saying much. in fact, with the new menus, the “free” food on the menu in the MDR each night, is the exact same food you’ll find in the Windjammer that night. We usually do unlimited specialty dining (which has also gone down a lot in quality since Covid) ….. but we booked this cruise last minute and figured we’d try the MDR this time since it’s only 4 nights …… big mistake …….. yes, the specialty dining food quality has gone down since Covid, but it’s nowhere near as bad as the “free” food in the MDR. AND GO …….. Let the attacks on me for saying all that begin in …….3…….2……..1 LOL
  13. Crown loft ……. It’s bigger and only 1 floor directly above the grand suites, coastal kitchen, and suite sun deck. The crown loft floor is also more private than the grand suite floor.
  14. Then the cruise lines can pay them more, and just charge a little more for the cruise. On my own, I individually tip a lot more than the pittance they supposedly get from the auto-gratuities. Assuming, RCL even gives 100% of the auto-gratuities to the crew and doesn’t keep a chunk for themselves.
