We have a similar issue with a couple cruises in February. One on the Odyssey, you can buy shore excursions on the cruise planner for a cancelled port, and on another which is now a port day, you can only buy the sailing day try dive. The poor IT guys can not keep up with the changes or have not got the memo yet, lol 

@codyh21I'm really happy to hear that you can share internet access amicably, but that is NOT the case for us !!  We did the "multiple device, single log-in" plan ONCE and it nearly ended our relationship !  LOL  Just kidding of course...but we found it extremely frustrating to share a log-in.  NEVER AGAIN.  First of all, whenever we are "relaxing" and online for whatever reason, we generally do this at the SAME time so it is virtually impossible to share a log-in.
For simplicity's sake I only purchase the DBP+Voom option anymore.  Sure, I could save a few bucks by using my free D+ days and then buying the plan on board on day 3 or later but it's too much of a hassle for me.  I would rather pay a little more and not have to worry about the internet plan once I'm onboard.  Having said all of that, I have not yet sailed since the start-up and there's a possibility that I MAY decide to try and skip the DBP since we both now receive 5 free beverages daily....but I haven't decided if THIS hassle is worth it or not so for now, I'm sticking with my DBP+Voom scheme.  Of course, all of this is prefaced by the fact that we may never sail again, but that's another issue altogether !

pricing for deluxe bev package with wifi one device for our march cruise on symphony is cheaper per day than my Feb 2020 four day was on navigator (71 per day Symphony vs 86 on Navigator) so that's a pretty good deal. 
 
Those Florida four day prices for that package are notoriously high, I'm aware.  Easier to guzzle away for four days with really just one true port day than for 7+ but I like the challenge.

Happy Thanksgiving, Robert….and everyone else as well.

I’ve heard that Chicken Pizza is really good!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our big happy RC Blog family! 
Happy Cruising!

Looking forward to those days.  Flying into Miami 3 days early for Oasis and my packing list now includes:
Passport
Masks
2 EMed Covid tests...  not much extra stuff, just remembering it all.

There was a company conference call about testing yesterday.  I don't know all the details but an employee mentioned they had to be on a call yesterday about testing.
Hopefully they will be easing pre-cruise testing requirements soon.

Why an I not surprised, it was just more smoke and mirrors from Royal Caribbean 🤦‍♂️

Because of the travel time, I've had my eye on a cruise out of Galveston that has a port stop at Yucatan.  It seems to be closer to Chichen Itza and may provide an extra 45 min- 1 hour onsite.  This itinerary isn't offered very often, but it's worth looking into for 22-23.  The basic idea is that you skip the ferry ride from Cozumel but still take a bus to the site.

Following.  going on Harmony on 1/2 cruise for my birthday!

No plans to eat at 150 CP; we need a longer cruise to get them all in.  
 

Izumi Hibachi menus.  Hibachi wasn’t on Anthem so we are looking forward to this experience. 

We have never eaten at Giovanni’s; on Anthem it was Jamie Oliver’s.  

Chops menu. This is our #1 favourite specialty dining. 😋 The seafood tower is gone but I have heard of them offering something close; if so this will make Lindsay happy. 

Genie news today included menus from the specialty restaurants. First up is CK.  Filet night is Night 1 and I told Shane that I can not disappoint our friend @Lovetocruise2002 like some others have. Lol Filet night has become a right of passage and I need to join this club! 

And all this time I thought it was just taking me longer to sober up?
