22 days to go! Hopefully this will fly by with Christmas and New Years.
Communication with Luciano has been excellent.I have let him know the activities we are wanting to do onboard and went ahead and gave a tentative dining schedule, we will probably change that around once onboard and plans change.
Looking really forward to Giovanni’s! We aren’t big fans of Jamie’s so we are very thankful to have Giovanni’s onboard. That should be our anniversary celebration dinner.
I agree with you. Not a fan of Jamie’s

I think you will be happy with your O-T-W cabana choice. It is a wonderful experience. ....and think about it....how many people who booked cabanas, bungalows and clam shells for Coco Cay are going to NOT be able to get a corresponding experience on Labadee ? There are waaay more of these facilities available on CC than Labadee. Some people aren’t going to get them. Star Class WAS a huge advantage for this change of itinerary.

We received a Royal Up email, inviting us to bid for the Royal Loft Suite. Currently, we are booked in the Owner’s Loft Suite. The upgrade would provide a larger room, separate bedroom area (sofa in media room can be converted to a queen bed) for our son, a bathtub, a larger dining table that would better accommodate the addition of my parents for meals, and of course a hot tub. I placed a bid. I know that the chances are slim, but we figured why not?
That's a Win-Win in my world !!

That's pretty much what I have heard from others too lately. Although, slight change of topic, I am sort of bothered that Oasis class ships have rolled out a different colour scheme for Sea, Sky, Star seapass cards. It messes with the collection. That's the Type A in me talking. First world problems, I know.
I’m with you. On Oasis our sea passes were the color that Sky class used to have (kind of a purplish-red). Nobody got the deep purple (almost black) ones. I can’t actually recall seeing any Sky level sea pass cards so I don’t know what color they were. I prefer it the old way but it truly did not impact my experience in any negative way, so....

2 weeks ago on Oasis, Dan had a white WOW band and I had a blue one. He used his, I did not. I don’t think there is a SC distinction for WOW bands.

Did the luggage porters take your luggage upstairs for you ?

What a wonderful start ! So glad the pre-arrival tips were helpful. I never get tired of that NYC skyline from the river. I always get chills. I’m very surprised that your suite wasn’t ready until 1PM. I’ve never had to wait that long. There must have been an “issue”. Looks like the SC food coma is well under way. Great job. Be sure and order your seafood towers at Chops. It’s a right of passage for SC. Bumper cars tomorrow ?
I hope your itin doesn’t get hooped up (see, I can speak Canadian !). Very happy to hear that Andres can still get you a cabana, if you have to settle for Labadee. I assume that means that there would not be any other ships there that day. Lucky.

You will have complete access to both Silver and Gold areas of the ship, as well as all the suite perks. The Golden Suites Program may not be RSC but it is really special and you’ll have a great time.
Are there Genies in Golden Class ? Do you have unlimited drinks and dining ? Reserved seating for shows ?

They are so cute !

I thought of you as we pulled up. Terminal staff wanted us to get out before Zone 6 and take our luggage. I said absolutely not!! . They let us right through to Zone 6 where we met the star class checkin staff. So glad for your advice.
YIPPEE !!! Glad they didn't hijack you !! They'll try to do that every time !

All I'm thinking as it's headed towards Oasis is "Hasn't she been through ENOUGH already????"
I was thinking the same thing. She must be a magnet for incident and accident !

Scary part is they had breakfast service going on at the time. Report from Carnival on Twitter stated a minor injury due to the evacuation of the restaurant.
Yep, it looked like it was the whole corner of the MDR on 2 levels !! So glad to hear that nobody was seriously injured.
The view from Oasis was really the best one. It doesn't look like Legend took any real damage at all. Probably just some paint.

I WAS in incognito. I'm sure it's user error. ..

It looked even closer than that but the video didn't have the greatest angle from the aft. Yikes !!!

Rats ! I can't read this article. I'm blocked b/c I am not a subscriber.

Twangster, did the noise issue on Oasis return after we disemarked or did they leave those speakers disconnected ? I was just wondering if they removed the speakers just to get us off their back or if they were really interested in solving the problem.

Allure from Texas November 2021, (RC glitch?) balcony pick your own room is currently cheaper than Oceanview they pick your room.
Probably not a glitch. There are far more balcony rooms on an Oasis class ship than there are Oceanview rooms. Since Royal is now using computer programmed inventory pricing, the oceanviews are more "rare" than the balconies, thus the higher price. Once the balconies start to dwindle, the prices will likely switch. On the December 1, Oasis cruise I just completed, the oceanview rooms were the first to sell out. I recommend that if you are seriously considering this cruise, book a balcony now with a refundable deposit. You can always change your mind but the prices on those balconies will not be lower for long (my guess).

The trend on land has been towards more casual dress in all aspects of life. Even in the business world,
This is very true. 20 years ago, when I first came into the "beltway bandit" world, ALL women wore dark suits, stockings and heels. Period. Not long after that it became much more relaxed and nowadays women in the workplace pretty much wear whatever they want to. Of course there are still occasions when you must dress more professionally, but the average day is no longer strictly suits for both men and women.

I am so excited for all of you. This is going to be so much fun ! I wouldn’t stress too much about not having excursion plans. Sometimes it’s more fun just to wander aimlessly and stay close to “home”. Since you have the DBP, there is benefit to hanging out around the ship. Merry Christmas !

I’m with you, Oliver !

I’m sure the family was hoping that they could get the video thrown out, as evidence. Now, as Twangbot has so skillfully predicted, they will claim jury bias. Maybe they actually leaked it themselves !
