A great blog!  How hard was it for the kids to walk to different areas of the ship from the aft of the ship?  @WAAAYTOOO mentioned it’s a lot of walking from the ATS. 

I was looking at the OTS 2 bedroom ATS in March, 23. We have 3 kids who will be 10,8, and 5.  I like the fact that there’s a separate room for the kids.  Thanks!

@Sharla is great and she’ll get back to you super fast

Oh, you absolutely MUST do a live blog for us on this one.  I don't think we've had anyone stay in the UFS yet !  Congratulations.

Hahaha. I’ll try my best but I don’t think it’ll be as good as as @Jax and @Lovetocruise2002 live blogs on their SC experiences. 

Don’t your lose your deposit if you cancel a suite reservation?

After reading multiple posts about SC suites, we booked the Ultimate family suite on Symphony for 10/29/22.  It’s cheaper than a Disney suite and seems like you get so much more perks.  the kids are super excited about the slide and the hot tub.   @Sharla made it very easy.  Thank you all for great advices. 

So I can call the C&A customer service and get C&A membership for my family before our first RCCL cruise?  This would be a game changer for us. 

@WAAAYTOOO @Lovetocruise2002definitely convinced me to book a SC for our RCCL cruise next October.  Can’t wait!

Can you get in a short one (ie 3-4 nights) before Oct. '22?

Good thought!  We have a Disney cruise scheduled for April but a short summer RCCL might not be out of the question.

Do you know if this applies to a first time RCCL cruiser?  We have a seven night suite scheduled for next October and it would be awesome to get double points.

The judge basically punted the ball.  Let someone else deal with this headache. 

@twangster What’s a winch pad?

What’s a GT?

The port shouldn’t be an issue.  We like to fly in the night before the cruise. I’ve never done Miami port but according to @twangster pics, it seems pretty easy to navigate for RCCL. Do they have a dedicated terminal like DCL has at port canaveral?

@Vancity Cruiser hahaha. Thanks for your concern. I love musicals but I have no desire to watch Cats. All I can think of is James Corden in a cat suit. . It won’t affect my decision at all. 

Another vote for September 1

@twangsteramazing pics!  Do the pools get crowded during sea days?  Disney cruise pools are always super crowded. 

Thank you all!  You guys are awesome. 

Hello all,

we’re looking at a March,2023 cruise.  Harmony vs Oasis.  Both visit Labadee and CocoCay.

considering spacious ATS 2 bedroom. Harmony is more expensive.  Is there a significant difference between the ships?  @twangster, @WAAAYTOOO, @Lovetocruise2002 Appreciate your inputs!  Thank you.

I assume the cruise lines will buy vaccines for their employees once it becomes widely available. Didn’t RCL say they’ll require vaccination for the crew?

With covid numbers plateauing, I can see cdc taking its time to make sure there isn’t another surge.   It looks certain may cruises will be cancelled. 

Can you even feel the boat swaying on an oasis ship?  I did feel wobbly for a few days after our last Disney cruise.

Omg. I’m salivating over the food.  Can’t wait for our SC cruise on Symphony next Oct. the seafood tower is calling my name

Unless you’re Crystal or other luxury lines, you can’t survive without families on the ships 

Does the O class suite lounge serve food and alcohol all day?  Or will I be using it much since I can ask our genie for anything we want?

Got it. Thanks!
