I did not see any kind of drink discounts recently on the Oasis.

I had a canceled cruise due to a charter before, and it was 1 week of the B2B cruises. I ended up just doing 1 week, and can't remember how much onboard credit I got, but think it was $50. Messed up flights and everything else. But not a lot you can do. And this was canceled like a month before cruise, not a lot of notice. I have had 2 cruises canceled due to charter in the many years I have been cruising.

I might suggest booking a table next to your friends table. Arrange it at the dining room as soon as you board. You can then change it to a table of 6 after that. But I have never done My Time dining, so not exactly sure. Having travel agent helps. Also you could just wait at entrance to dining (out of sight) after speaking to desk about your request/plans. Then maybe they could then seat you next to them (or even with them at their table) and have something already arranged to do that? Good luck and sounds like a lot of fun!

I have been known to have a drink and appetizers at one restaurant and dinner at another with UDP. Or stopped by later in evening for dessert at specialty restaurant with coffee. Some restaurants you will fine have desserts you like better or appetizers. Or you just want to spread out your meal. All is good

I understand that the other person in your cabin needs to also purchase a drink package. But does not have to be deluxe beverage package. It can be the soda package or something else.

All cruises I have recently been on they want everyone off by 9:30am. They start going around and mentioning to people about 9am that it is time to disembark.

We were in same cabin, and not allowed to return to cabin until opened for everyone. The doors are all shut at the hallway entrances. I have done many, many B2B. If you can go back to cabin, I have never seen it. I can only see that maybe the Star suites can get into their cabins?

I have been on 2 B2B cruises on Oasis in past 6 months. Back to Back is easy, even if you have to change cabins. On the day everyone is disembarking you will meet with the other B2B cruisers and escorted off ship, thru customs, and back on ship. And ususally there is a special lunch at main dining room for those cruisers, including wine and soft drinks. Unfortunately you cannot return to your room until they are opened for everyone, usually 1-2pm. If you are changing cabins you just can leave all your hanging clothes and shoes, then I loosely pack the rest in a suitcase or 2. Your cabin stewart with bring a cart and transfer everything to your new cabin. Any food or drinks in the refrigerator I put on counter and they will bring that over also. I usually take a tote with me that morning that have my medications, and items from the safe. Just would rather have them with me. Just in case the cart they are transferring on, lingers in spots along the way. ENJOY!

Once I did not get room decorations on first day. On day 3, I went to guest services for a refund. I got a refund immediately, plus they brought room decor that day. PLUS they gave me dinner at Chops for all 4 of us and delivered wine to our room. I asked for nothing except for the refund. I had also asked our cabin stewart on day 2 about decorations and nothing happened. I was very pleasantly surprised and will never forget it. Royal has the best customer service!

Have lunch. While having lunch book shows and dinners on the App. Also watch watch the short muster video. Check in at muster station, which takes less than 5 minutes. Then enjoy whatever you want. Cabins usually open between 1 and 2pm. Have fun

150 Central Park is a favorite of mine

I love the Oasis class. And am partial to Oasis ship. I also like Anthem quite a bit. Been on both those ships many times

Yes, they are checking. And sometimes at more than one location

Definitely larger ship with more to do. And you have so many sea days. I do take the smaller ships for the itinerary once in Europe. But only take larger newer ships for transatlantic every spring.

We Will Rock You is great. One of my favorites. My favorite play is Chicago.

I have not had good luck with the wash and dry laundry service. Yes, way too hot of dryers and I had some items ruined. Also lost embellishments on shirts missing. If I have laundry done I pay by item, and usually do dry cleaning. I wash in sink or tub, basic things if I need to. Underwear, shorts, etc.

My favorite is onion ring tower. Only $6

The Hibachi is a lot of food. I could never eat both, back to back. But you can certainly do it. Some Hibachi places have charged me the $10 extra, and some have not, even though they say there is an upcharge. I would suggest you make reservations the same night, one early dining and 1 late dining. Hibachi takes 2 hours+. Just enjoy!

Yesterday I checked the rates for all my booked cruises, 9 cruises. Most were the close to what I paid, and 2 were a lot more. It does pay to check often. Once I did save $1,800!

I have not had problems with getting desserts to go. Get a couple and keep in your refrigerator in your cabin even! And I would ask in CK, they can always say no, but might surprise you and be able to get it for you.

FANTASTIC!

I have sat in those places with the table and 2 chairs. Kind of nice, but seats are hard. And in the plant next to it I found a cruise duck!

Was recently on Oasis, you drink package will work. But the food is extra charge, unless you have UDP. But the prices of the food is very reasonable.

I have found it better to just purchase, and not hold in your cart. If price changes your cart price usually will also change. You can always cancel.

I have stayed in cabins near elevators and rarely hear any noise. Do not recommend the forward cabins. I prefer mid or aft cabins, and like the ones near elevators. Enjoy
