Returning to Ravenna and Flying out of Marco Polo at 12pm

What time is the earliest shuttle? Generally I contact Air 2 Sea and see what the earliest flight they offer is. Then when I book on my own I make sure to not book earlier than that. Of course anything you can do to expedite at the airport can be helpful. -
I just want to clear some things up you mentioned. suites and pinnacles go to the left side of the terminal when waiting to board the ship. If you are in the front of 20 rows you are in the “general boarding area” in the front seats/which based on your description is for the key. Suite peeps don’t get assigned seats. Only the star class get reserved seats-their genie puts out the reserved seats stuff so none of us sit there. Your key seating is with the rest of the suites, pinnacles, and Diamond plus . personally I find the reserved seating area for key and the rest tends to not necessarily be the best seats in the venue so check out the venues prior to shows and figure out where you’d like to sit instead of relying on where they put seats for key etc. I hope your Queen is doing well after her treatments.

Express check in is random. Ensure all your documents are loaded-passport-photos and info, otherwise it won’t happen. Entertainment is booked before your sailing. Keep checking the cruise planner. I just checked my emails and I booked entertainment on January 3 for the March 22 cruise. I believe I booked on the day the entertainment opened. Be prepared to have a calendar with the itinerary and any special dining you have booked so you don’t try to book for when you have plans. Their system should block you from doing that. I’ve attached a sample of what the schedule was for our sailing-mind you ours was the eastern caribbean and of course your entertainment times may vary. If you find you have a conflict or can’t book anything when you board the ship go immediately to the box office-I think it was set up on deck 4-and see if you can schedule. I had to do this because they had moved something I had booked (i was notified via email before the cruise) and it left no time to go from the aqua show to the ice show. Simple change and I had my schedule with me so I knew exactly where to reschedule to.

I was on your sailing, in fact the very first passenger to board! Icon is a beast. The elevators were awesome, quite an adjustment. About 30 seconds before the busy times came, then it was closer to 3 minutes or so. At one point an elevator arrived that was packed with no room to board. A few times the elevators were getting too full to be able to board them. the food options were great. The park cafe being open 24 hours with great food and dessert options was a bonus as opposed to being stuck with Sorrentos and crap finger sandwiches. They definitely need a third specialty coffee location. I keep asking if there were more and crew kept telling me Starbucks/not what I was trying to convey! i had the sliding doors close on me when leaving the music hall to the restroom and I also had an elevator door close on me. the husband observed a woman get stuck in between the sliding doors from the music hall to the casino —stuck stuck, not just closed on her and then reopened like what happened to me, lots of complaints about the chair hogs, thankfully I had pinnacle access at the suite area/which is absolutely gorgeous and the lite bites they served up there were fantastic, empire super club was quite an experience. Loved it, though not sure I’d do it again. They called all luggage tags by about 8:30-quite surprising given the numbers of people on the sailing.

Looks like corkage fees may be enforced
Pattycruise replied to Pattycruise's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
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

Diamond Free Internet Day Question

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! -

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?

Shuttle / Van / Car service or Uber for Miami
Pattycruise replied to melmar02's topic in Other travel
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!
