We paid $58 on the Black Friday deal for our Dec 20th cruise on Adventure. No regrets but I don’t think I’d be willing to pay over $60 for it in the future.

Glad you got the upgrade! One note I'd like to make for others considering Royal Up right now is to look at what it will cost you to just upgrade your room immediately without having to bid. For us, the minimum bid for a balcony room was $100/pp when upgrading from an interior guarantee. We were able to upgrade to a balcony room without bidding for $104/pp. $8 difference and knowing we definitely had the upgraded room was a no brainer for us. We also ended up getting 1688 on Adventure which was awesome and definitely made the upgrade worth it.

I agree. I was on the same sailing and I was thoroughly impressed with the cooperation of the passengers and the staff being patient yet firm on the mask requirement. We had a great time even though we were worried about the mask policies when the announcement came out Friday afternoon.

I have had a different experience than others sailing right now on Adventure. The line to get into Windjammer does get a little busy but it moves quick. Easy to find chairs on the upper deck (not right by the pool, which is fine) that overlook the pool. My biggest complaint is it seems the ship shuts down around 10:30 pm. The ship is like a ghost town after that with just a few people at each bar. Of course places are still open, but everyone is in their rooms instead. Likely due to the mask mandate of wearing it at all times inside, at least that is my guess. I wish they’d keep the pool bars open later during the indoor mask mandate.

I am on adventure of the seas right now and I can confirm we left port right around 1.5 hours late, however they kept mentioning that certain guests hadn’t completed the muster drill and we were waiting for them. Not sure why people try to skip it as it takes less than 5 minutes to complete.

To me it’s about having more options. Sometimes you just want a quick bite for dinner or if you don’t feel like dressing as nice as you normally would for the main dining room.

You really don’t because then only the main dining room would be open at dinner - unless they change that rule to help with social distancing on lower capacity sailings.

Okay good, because I for one will not be raising my mask between sips and bites. All other times, whatever - it is what it is. Thanks for the confirmation! Enjoy the rest of your sailing.

I would also like to point out that Royal Caribbean has posted absolutely nothing about this new requirement on social media, and it is very well hidden on their website. This is a lack of transparency to their customers which is where I have an issue with it. Typically, these announcements are on the front page of the site and posted on their social media platforms. Very odd and off character for the company.

I am curious about Adventure staff. I read on another post that another ship is requesting masks be worn between sips of your drink or bites of your food. Is that true on your sailing as well?

Supposedly Royal Caribbean is reaching out to customers affected. Well, my sailing leaves Monday which means my 48 hours to cancel would be tomorrow - and I received no notice of this whatsoever until viewing this site. Has anyone actually received a notification BEFORE their 48 hours was up? Just curious. I completely understand the need to up the requirements, but not being transparent with the customers until it is too late is unacceptable.

What’s your favorite thing to do in Cozumel? We normally dive but decided to go a different route this trip, but not sure what yet. Thanks in advance!

Really hoping it’s open on Adventure for my Dec 20th cruise. Few days back it wasn’t open, just checked the app and looks like it will be now!

$8 more here..but guess who forgot to book it at the lower price a few weeks ago..Lol. And my cruise is in less than a month, so I guess I’m paying the extra.

Super disappointing sale for my Dec 20th Adventure sailing. Prices are higher than any other normal sale this year
