I suspect my bottles on Icon must have been labeled incorrectly. My bottles Wonder this week are labeled corkage waived. These are the free bottles for reaching “x” points crown and anchor. I can’t imagine they’ll start charging to pop them open. What happens to carry on bottles? They don’t have stickers, is that an automatic fee? Time will tell!

Do you mind sharing what your favorite meal is there?

Pinnacle members no longer have priority tender I doubt D+ does

One day off the onboard price is not cheaper than purchasing in the cruise planner prior to sailing.

It’s one wine bottle per adult now. I agree-bring it!

I was on Icon the week of March 22 and my bottles said corkage. (See photo) I gifted my bottles to staff so I have no idea if there would have been a fee. I just saw another photo from a group I’m in that said corkage fee waived on the sticker.

Yes buy just 1 under your name with 2 devices. You will create the log in and share the password with your bf so they can log in. Buying separate plans would really be for someone who needs dedicated wifi service for work.

You do not have to pack trial size. showers in balcony, ocean view and interior have a body wash/shampoo combined single dispenser. suites on up typically have 3 separate containers-however that may vary by ship?

I had a friend do the royal shuttle out of Miami when she sailed on Symphony last year and she said it was a nightmare. I’m not saying not do it but apparently there is minimal or zero signage so just be aware you may need to figure things out. Maybe join some fb groups of the ship you are sailing prior to your sailing and inquire about shuttle usage and satisfaction, ease of use etc also-as with any shuttle - i recommend one of your party stay with your bags to ensure they are loaded while the rest go secure seats. If you sit 2 on one side of the bus and 2 on the other you can also watch the unloading of bags and keep an eye on them until you get off the bus to grab your bags.

Still on Icon today hubby gets 2 separate emails for his cousins (the cousins we sailed with in May) the emails are their cruise accounts from their sailing that ended this morning. So I was removed-he was added?! LA says this is a common thing to happen when you sail with and subsequently book casino comps after having purchased the next cruise booking reservation. Makes ZERO sense as he was not in the same cabin with both of them. He did not get any of the emails like I did. She did check all 3 of their accounts and they all have their own emails. His email showed on their original comp booking-. I still call bs. still haven’t gotten any emails formy upcoming Wonder cruise on Sunday-despite my account being fixed. I think the cruise is in “limbo land” …too close to sailing for any changes made on my account to show up. my setsail pass access has now disappeared-fortunately I had downloaded it on my Apple wallet. What next Royal?

$1k played would guarantee 200 pts. For regular gamblers they should have some hits in there, increasing the $ they can play through the machine, yielding more points. . Now if you want to see the rare gambler who can make $1k into just 200 points then watch me!

This loyalty ambassador was amazing. Not once did she suggest I used the wrong C&A # to book my cruises and I pulled up some of my booking confirmations to show her the proper C&A numbers were on them. personally I wouldn’t expect the Crown Lounge or Suite Lounge person to be knowledgeable about the BS that goes on with the C&A program. I was in the suite lounge today listening to the concierge say there was nothing she could do because the people didn’t know the reservation # to the cruise they were trying to get their points on. Why not send them to the Loyalty Ambassador? There’s more than one way to look up an account!! Or at least call the LA and ask if it’s possible and then send the people there. bonus for me is this LA was able to update my daughters missing 7 points-something she’s been dealing with over the phone for a month. . Turns out they were showing in the system correctly but needed to be “pushed through”-whatever the heck that means! She literally clicked a button and the app updated the account.

Problem allegedly has been resolved!! Hard to describe but essentially when I travelled with a cousin a while bunch of bat and future cruises were assigned to her number/and/or a new number for me. The LA on Icon figured it out when she pulled up my current cruise and saw the email as no reply or no name…and then I gave her other cruise reservation numbers and she found that on all of my future cruises. So it was worked on with shore side and my points are now correct as well as my cruise emails! supposedly there will be no problems forward. So I inquired how this could happen if every time I inquired about my crown and anchor and email , and when they were correct, there was actually a direct email in the background. Apparently it’s one of those things that can happen? So-if you still have issues with no email showing ask them To open the current cruise if onboard, and/ or future cruises and tell them to look at what email is showing in the reservation. Apparently what shows on your account is not necessarily what is on the reservation…, The funny part is I now have a welcome email from the casino (I’m signature) and they are giving me $100 freeplay on a currently booked sailing or a future sailing. Not going to lie I’m super hesitant to try and redeem it.

What is out called on Icon?

Currently on icon and they offered a free shuttle TO the airport. -choose MIA or FLL. It’s in the cruise planner under the last day shore excursions. May or may not be available for other ships/sailings. If you wanted the royal shuttle to the pier you’d need to have a flight #, to/from times for the day of the flight (look one up and get to the airport from your hotel) and contact total to book it. You can book one way or both. If you tell them you flew in a day early they don’t let you book the shuttle (that’s been my experience) sorry I can’t help you on shuttle companies-the one I use only goes to FLL
