114% capacity on Allure last week
cruisellama replied to esmoov's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
Actually capacity is limited by the number of spots on the escape craft (both motorized and inflatables). So cabin capacity can actually be on the high side, but with excess escape capacity. -
Also depends on the "training" of the security staff.

Starbucks included on drink packages!
cruisellama replied to scott6173's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
We joke about just leaving the coffee pot on the burner all day --- by the end of the day you've captured the taste of Starbucks. -
But its the same menu . Unless you really like it.. IMPO - once was enough for a few years.

We're booked on Wonder the week of 15 Jun 23 and still no CocoCay excursions on the cruise planner.

One thing you won't find is a frozen banana daiquiri , which I find interesting as Celebrity stocks it. A bartender on Liberty tried using a banana liquor in one attempt, but it was not very good.
-
Has anyone done this excursion and does it really take 4-hrs or it just the allotted time? The description reads like a scavenger hunt.

Yes, its been sliding for a while. It was 1 to 1.08 US when we visited Europe in June. Surprised when I looked at it today.

CDC Voluntary Cruise Ship Program Ends

You're spot on, but any forward looking "optics" is welcome. -
CDC Voluntary Cruise Ship Program Ends
cruisellama replied to twangster's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
Yes. But who knows if he has internal clout anymore, especially as he's been out a while with the bug (with published set-backs). When a controversial leader announces retirement, the underlings start jockeying for notoriety and position. Could be someone just pulling a trigger early. -
Plentiful in St. Maarten if you happen to have a port call.

Is this because Fauci announced retirement? -
Kida funny. I think RCL sold off Azamara (3-ships) for around $200M during the pandemic. But looks like thet ship was a great "going out of business" deal.

"Buy low" most likely. Must have some cash. Their margins are pretty good from what I understand.

Comparison between Celebrity and Royal
cruisellama replied to steverk's topic in Celebrity & SilverSea
In general, Celebrity has no toys. Royal does. -
There is a Captains Club event for high tier that includes Elite and up/Diamond, but thats usually just one evening during happy hour. During the period , you can access basic cocktails as well as whatever the CC specials are. Or if you have an inclusive package on Celeb you're good to go so no need for the CC club benefit.

Ideas for Greece, Montenegro and Croatia
cruisellama replied to baltodave's topic in Shore Excursions
We were just through that area - one pleasant surprise, eating and shopping at the local places is very reasonable. In fact we thought the price value was better than what we have in the states at this time. Also, the Euro dropped and is very close to the Dollar. -
My time does give you maximum flexibility. You don't need an internet package to use the app. In addition, you can always stop by restaurants to make specific reservations if desired. You can knock that out on embarkation day if desired.
