I actually need exactly that sailing, since I'm going to be on exactly same one So needed to see time for the shows. So I can plan around them... Since you can't book any shows in advance, it's really hard to make any plans. And early dinner reservations then become unavailable...

Hey guys Anyone can help to find Symphony of the seas cruise compass? FROM FEBRUARY 12, 2022

Yes, exactly I used fly to fort launderdale, because it was cheaper and then take LYFT to Port Miami cruise. About $35-40 max with tips. Uber was more expensive.. .

You're confused me even more. My question was about refundable deposit fee. And you're saying I'll still lose my deposit?..

Guys, have a question. I've always booked with non refundable deposit option. Now I'm looking into 2023 and found refundable option, it say for additional $170. If I cancel my booking, will I loose this fee of $170 ?

It's simple... Royal Caribbean have no idea what's going to be in Europe in 2023... Plus don't forget, the contract says that they have full rights to change everything! Both ship and itinerary.

Fixed...

In the meantime, can anyone share some special ideas? Been to caribbean many times in cruises... Can be Europe, but need specifics. Itinerary, ships, stops. I'm thinking of middle of September 2023. Special occasion.

Early reservation for my time going fast... I'm sailing symphony in the spring, and it's starting at 6:45 So, would be better to reserve earlier, and if plans change, it's almost never a problem at all to change it to the later time.

Yes, I've tried to search for myself. If you live in Queens, I don't see any of CVS Minute Clinics that have Rapid PCR. PROBABLY expensive machines to have everywhere. I see in Brooklyn and Queens. Haven't searched in Long Island. And lab PCR, you're correct, some sites are drive-in. You stay in the car... I've used site in Brooklyn, corner of Kings Hwy and Nostrand Ave. Let me try to attach screenshot. P.S. On this site, where it says Lane, it does not mean for car. It's room #1. They have 4 lanes/ rooms with separate reservation schedule. So for myself as example, I've scheduled for whole family. Same time, at 3 different rooms. They took us all together. We had morning appt. In and out in like 5 minutes or so...

Got my test done at CVS. Completely free, no insurance required. Received results in like an hour. Straight into My Chart. You can schedule 2 weeks in advance online. They have rapid antigen, PCR and rapid PCR. Depending on location you choose. Yes, there's such thing as rapid PCR. I wasn't aware. I've taken it myself. Basically machine using same exact method as PCR, but results in an hour. Printout shows all the details on the lab, test, etc. https://www.cvs.com/minuteclinic/covid-19-testing

I was on Anthem with nearly full capacity, before pandemic. And it was no problems at all. Ships of this size with Carnival and Norwegian are much higher capacity. Royal Caribbean doesn't try to fit as many people as possible. And Oasis class ship, if it existed with other companies, will probably be like 10 thousand passengers. So many cabins can be built in place of Boardwalk, central park, etc. That's literally thousands of passengers... Newest ships of Royal are all about passenger entertainment... Not maximum capacity between the walls of the ship.

Prices will probably still drop a lot. Since that's still almost 2 yrs away. I've bough cruise on symphony in 2022. Price was 2200 for balcony. Now price is 1700.

That's Australian AUD NOT AMERICAN

Would you know, if dry dock usually in the spring before the season starts or in fall?

Could you share more info about other 3 stops? Where did you go? What beaches? I'll be at same stops in the spring

That's nice. But unfortunate... Too much info in single week. But on the other hand, it's better. Between Europe and Caribbean. Would be able to see whole picture. Maybe even book double cruise. Or transatlantic...

Hopefully soon. Want to see which of the bigger ships will be there. Especially oasis and quantum classes. Too bad, I've missed on Wonder... Could not make it for 2022. And it's probably won't be there in 2023, maybe will be moved to Asia, like originally planned.

Hey, keep wondering when Europe 2023 will be up. They were saying this week of the 6th... Need to find best option for September...

I understand what saying. But we're already paying about $12 from automatic gratuity for 2 people per restaurant. And waiter basically just bring us food. No extra service. We don't even buy wine. Just trying to see what extra could be for.

Guys, just want your opinion. If I've paid already 18% gratuity during purchase of package. Do you give more tips at the specialty restaurant?

I'm looking far ahead for SEPTEMBER'S 2023 for a special birthday celebration. That's the reason was thinking about maybe Europe itinerary. Alaska is is already colder in September and caribbean is hurricane season. Can't safely wait for September caribbean, it can be hit or miss due to weather conditions.

Icon isn't planned to debut at least until fall 2023. Or later.... So many answers should be answered in next couple of weeks, when they release Europe and Caribbean 2023 itineraries. Probably till fall 2023.

Interesting thinking, but Miami wouldn't be left without Oasis class ship. Never!!! New Terminal A cost them too much to leave it with oasis. It was build for very high capacity ships. And it's amazing!

Sounds like it should start showing up next week.
