Yikes ! Is there a possibility that you or your husband could fly over and drive back with her ? I completely understand your concern for her and appreciate your selfless attitude. I hope it all works out.

SeaPass Card Colors
WAAAYTOOO replied to Cruise Queen 44 * Diamond's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
We were in Star Class on Oasis in December. Our sea passes were the lighter plum color that the sky class suites used to be. Honestly, I cannot tell you what the sky class passes looked like. I personally like the dark purple (almost black) Star Class better but in the big picture, what color my seapass card is has -0- impact on my experience or well being ??? When we were Sky class on Anthem in Feb, the seas passes were an almost turquoise color. -
Rhapsody & Tampa Port insight please?
WAAAYTOOO replied to Neesa's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
At least you have a plan ! Have a great time ! -
What ship and which airport are you flying from ?

Are Dubai 2019-2020 cruises going to be cancelled?
WAAAYTOOO replied to J_Keeble's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
I'm sorry that this is not working out the way you had hoped. I think many of us, who frequent these boards, are well aware that almost 100% of the time, these days, the CL is being put off limits to D+. It is a way for RCCL to turn all of the CL into SL without actually doing it. I'm sorry if you did not get that word soon enough. It is, unfortunately, the way things are going on all of the RCCL ships with very limited exceptions. -
Congratulations. That has never worked for me. Good luck !
-
What ship ? Entertainment is only bookable prior to sailing on Oasis or Quantum class ships.
-
The RCCL stock OBC is not always applicable and often difficult to apply. Be very careful purchasing stock for the purpose of getting OBC.

Dining package flexibility: use of $35 credit?
WAAAYTOOO replied to FroggyFlo's topic in Royal Caribbean Dining
Absolutely. You should have no problem changing your dining time in the first night. -
Decisions.... Decisions.. Western Med - Allure
WAAAYTOOO replied to stringfellow's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Lol. Good luck with that one ! ? -
I seem to recall reading something about some variety in final payment dates recently. It's possible that there has been a recent adjustment but I would consider it temporary.
-
That is correct. No daily gratuity for the second person.
-
I think maybe those are UK booking rules, perhaps ? With NA booking rules, a no-show at boarding will receive no $$ refund. Only the taxes and port fees will be refunded. Double points is an enigma. Some say yes and some say no.
-
I’m not sure about this one. I’ve heard yes and no. It’s never happened to me, so I just really don’t know !
-
In general, it is best just to do nothing and allow the second person to “no show”. That way, they can neither reprice your Cruise nor move the remaining cruiser to a different room. I think it is rare for either of these things to occur, but it’s best to just limit the potential bad outcomes. There is no advantage to cancelling the no-show ahead of time (there will be no refund of cruise fare) so why subject yourself to potential negative outcomes for no reason ?
-
I think limiting your exposure for a defined period of time prior to cruising is very wise. I actually never thought about it but it makes sense.
-
No shows are handled the same as cancellations. The amount of port fees and taxes are refunded to the original form of payment.

What are the suite benefits (GS and above)?
WAAAYTOOO replied to FroggyFlo's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Yes, Denise, you are right. If FroggyFlo is upgraded into a full suite, the price of her VOOM package will be refunded as onboard credit. If the onboard credit is not used during the cruise (in other words, you end up with a negative balance), that $$ amount will be refunded to the credit card used to pay for your seapass account. So the bottom line is...you will NOT "lose" the money you spend on the internet package. It will get reimbursed to you, one way or the other. -
Oasis Denied and MEI Awesomeness
WAAAYTOOO replied to VACruiser's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Tim B. I am so proud of you and so happy that this was handled so quickly, appropriately and best of all, satisfactorily !!! I have been using Michelle Cunningham (MEI)([email protected]) for many years and know the dedication and professionalism that she provides. What I also knew, but have had little chance to share with everyone, is the fact that she is a GENIUS and can work miracles !!! So, #1 I'm happy and proud that this went so well for you but #2 I am SO shocked and thrilled to see that Royal did the right thing here !!! The bottom line is, they had absolutely no obligation to do ANYthing for you at all. But it seems, b/c YOU did the right they, THEY turned around and did the right thing, too !!! This is the kind of good news story that rarely gets shared. Bad news travels far and wide but good news usually gets left behind. It's so heart-warming to know that doing the right thing (as you did) is occasionally rewarded ! Well done !!!!! -
Yes, Private Destinations (I think that’s what it’s called !) can be $$

Yippee ! A new SC blog. My favorite kind ! 1. You did the right thing by changing from the corner GLS to the OLS. While still a corner unit, it will be much bigger. Well done. 2. Yen is awesome. You will love her. Tell her Dan and Raye say “hi”. We just saw her a few weeks ago. It was nice to see her. 3. I’m sure you’ve received this information already, but be sure to keep your luggage with you until after you have checked in with the SC greeter. Make sure Yen knows that you expect your luggage to be taken upstairs. You will regret having to schlep it up the stairs yourself, if you don’t. I love being Star Class on the Q class ships. There are so many things for which a Genie is particularly helpful. Make sure that when you go to see Spectra, you are not sitting in the ver, very front. If you do, there will be activity happening behind you and you tend to miss some of it. I’m so excited for you ! First SC Cruise is so exciting.

You, Pamici and my Dan would get along fine. He is also a single malt Scotch guy. I think it smells like a**. ??

It doesn’t sound ridiculous at all. In fact, you are waaay ahead of the game by already knowing what you want to see. This is precisely the situation for which Royal Caribbean developed the Private Destinations program. I have never done this, but “@Matt” has. Hopefully he can provide some information.

Southern Caribbean 2021-Looking for ideas or too soon to plan?
WAAAYTOOO replied to Va4fam's topic in Shore Excursions
Congratulations! This sounds like the perfect cruise for early January ! 11 nights is a great length. Very good choice. Chances are, not much will be available to book quite yet but it is NEVER too early to start planning. I’m so excited for you. The snorkeling in St. Maarten has always been disappointing, to me. I would probably save that for a different port. San Juan is a great “on-your-own” kind of port with so much history and local sightseeing. There’s a lot of time to make decisions but doing your research will make the time pass much more quickly. -
That's the same message I always get regardless of when I try to use it.
