Coastal Kitchen gives you more intimate service. Feels more "old school" cruising. Food is also a little nicer as they're serving a smaller number of people. Jr. Suite will get you in for dinner. Higher suites get breakfast/lunch. We made reservations at the door (for the week) on embarkation day.
Nice run down. We're visiting Nov '21. Just 2 of us, so don't need the Cabana, so were going to get the Club Pass. Are chairs kept available, or is like what happens on the sun deck? Are there also umbrellas available/
Going to be more contraction. Would expect a shedding of the ships with higher operating/maintenance costs. Even when we start up again, its not going to be a full fleet. The loyalists will return, but those who've never sailed are going to stay away a couple of years.
I received an email from RCL to rebook our Mar 22 cruise. We were automatically moved to the Liberty, but rebooked the cruise to sail Allure and made the move. Will be leaving from FLL.
We were booked on a March 2022 cruise. It was cancelled and we were put on Liberty (which we like). Just received an email from RCL saying Allure will sail (I believe from FL) and we can get back on. We don't know the itinerary, but we can move over at the same price as originally booked. We'll jump if the itinerary is better. We'll end up with a refund if we stick with Liberty.
Any update on new ship placement with the delay of Terminal 3? Allure was to home port in Galveston late 2021, but how can that happen with the Terminal 3 delay? Have reservations on an Allure cruise in Mar 2022, but that wouldn't hold together either. Also rumor that Athem could come to Galveston and use Terminal 2 with some modifications.
