Largest Cruise Company in the World!
cruisellama replied to Jjohnb's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
interesting times. I'm curious why the sudden growth spurt in RCL stock price while the others are pretty anemic. Especially when no one is operating. -
Thats really done right!

If you like motor vehicle tours (ATV, Jeep) they offer those. Of course water sports such as snorkeling. Usually an excursion to Nevis which is the neighboring capital island. It has an interesting history with ties to colonial era trade..

Not an elegant lunch, but to avoid the crowds on embarkation, we go to Park Central cafe when on Oasis class. Its fast, and enough to recharge as we're walking the ship.

Banished for a period of time but it will come back when all gets figured out.

How does a cruise line mitigate risk on excursions?
cruisellama replied to cruisellama's topic in Shore Excursions
Oasis class are floating resorts - haven't been board yet staying on those ships. I hope to someday try the Q class - would expect the same. -
I've used and had very good luck. Now its even better with the deferred payment as you describe above. Also like the "re-routing" if issues come up on a connection.

cruisellama replied to cruisellama's topic in Shore Excursions
As far as Caribbean, I really don't mind staying on the ship while in port and just relaxing. If it becomes too complicated to take an excursion, I'd just stay on-board. But it will be an interesting experiment to watch. -
Thanks for the clarifications. So in theory, a waiver could be granted to lines operating the Alaskan region with relief on having to visit a foreign port such as VBC in the event Canadian law prevents lines from filling the non-US port visit requirement. Would think even Alaska would not want to lose revenue another entire tour season and have an interest in seeing some level of travel from the lower 48.

2022 Itinerary announcement schedule?
cruisellama replied to JLMoran's topic in Celebrity & SilverSea
Same late year timeframe. Around Nov-Dec last year. Wishing they would move up the 2nd half of '22. -
Changes to baggage drop off?
cruisellama replied to cruisellama's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Its the ultimate tracing task - identify every type of touch point and contact a guest might have - from the point they enter the luggage queue pre-embarkation, to the time they get through customs - post- debarkation. Even more when you consider a pre/post cruise line sponsored excursion. -
Seems to always be late in the year. Nov-Dec, so behind much of the competition which I don't understand - I'm sure there's some sort of strategy behind it. But with all the cancelations, would have though they would want to move the release up to include the back half of '22 and capture some additional deposits.

Torturing myself watching Love at Sea
cruisellama replied to Jill's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Skipped the movie, but guilty of watching Invicta watch sales on Home Shopping Network -
Found the same - on board bookings were lower than going off-board (included line website)
