  1. While I agree with your statement, it was far from entertaining.
  2. Came back from my 7 day oasis cruise. Aqua 80 was great, highly energetic and entertaining. Frozen in time was meh. Terrible and disjointed story line using Hans Christian Anderson as the backdrop. As for Cats, I understand now why this show was so maligned over the decades- major snoozefest. What were they thinking??? Credit to all the wonderful and talented performers who had to work with such material and poor decision making.
  3. As per the thread topic, anyone here have any insight on RC's criteria? Just curious, thanks.
  4. Interesting. Unless I’m not reading it right, it appears that some of the larger ships, Oasis included, will provide access before embarking. See wording below: Lights, camera, action! We're putting the finishing touches on our entertainment lineup, so if you're sailing on a ship that accepts reservations before you board*, check back closer to your sail date to guarantee your seat at our can't-miss shows. *Allure of the Seas, Anthem of the Seas, Harmony of the Seas, Navigator of the Seas, Oasis of the Seas, Odyssey of the Seas, Ovation of the Seas, Symphony of the Seas.
  5. Eat to my heart's desire. My favorite thing on any cruise ship.
  6. I recall it cost me ~$7 to press my linen dinner jacket. More than reasonable and in line with normal retail prices. Hence, the issue of me smuggling in a prohibited appliance is put to bed and frees up valuable luggage space.
  7. Can anyone here help me understand the difference with ordering the VOOM SURF + STREAM Internet Package for: 2 people - 2 devices (1 for each) vs 1 person - 2 devices Option 2 is significantly cheaper. Thanks
  8. Kudos to RC for implementing such a thorough evacuation protocol, from sealing her luggage to isolating the exit areas. The staff was totally professional throughout. I am impressed. Just WOW!!!
  9. https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2020/10/17/parents-of-toddler-who-fell-royal-caribbean-ship-still-suing-the-cruise-line-after Well, well. Looks like the strategy with the grandfather pleading guilty was to separate the issue of his negligence so that the parents can focus on their suit going forward. Pretty scammy imo.
  10. Yes, less than 4 weeks before sailing? Yep. Depends on which viewpoint you're coming from.
  11. Not only that but if you were a family of 4 with 2 cabins and only 1 of you tested positive, then what?
  12. Looking forward to your trip report. I was also booked on this cruise but chose to L&S it a few weeks ago.
  13. Lifted and Shifted: From: Harmony of the Seas (November 1, 2020) To: Harmony of the Seas (November 14, 2021)
  14. I booked a cruise on the Harmony for November 1st through my TA on December 2019 for 2 central park balcony staterooms. Cost was $4900 Cdn, a good deal. I priced out similar rooms just now and the price jumped to a whopping $8900 Can. Probably a function of reduced capacity and increased labor and protocols. If this is going to be the new normal going forward, I will hold off doing any cruises until prices stabilize, if ever.
  15. We're set to sail on Harmony, November 1st. I have a sense that RCL wants to use that date going forward as an experiment and phase-in period with reduced passenger capacity as well as an opportunity to institute new health protocols. The idea of possibly cruising again is exciting and yet scary at the same time given that we would be their "guinea pigs".
  16. Appears to be first come first serve. We're central park balcony and our check-in is for 2:30.
  17. I only started cruising in 2016 so I wouldn't know. Sure.
  18. I would love to see a separate "international" section in the menu which changes each night, highlighting a couple of dishes, to celebrate and recognize the many cultures that work tirelessly on the ship.
  19. Congrats to MSC! Protocols are working as planned.
  20. I hope with current circumstances as they are, RC does not enforce assigned arrival times.
