I'll wait for the second Icon class ship, I guess. I'm sure it's a wonderful ship, but I can pay for two vacations at that price point.

Honestly, I'm such a huge geek that I will still pay for the LotR stuff, even if it is overpriced. We're going to be looking into self-guided or non-RCL tours too, since there is no language barrier, so we're open to those options as well.

My wife and I are on this sailing for our 15th anniversary! It's the last Kiwi cruise of the season before Ovation heads back up to the PNW. Anyone else on this sailing?

My wife and I are sailing the last 10-night NZ cruise (Ovation) of the season next April (3rd-13th). We're looking for suggestions or recommendations for the ports: Picton Wellington Dunedin Christchurch We're open to RCL excursions or rebooking and managing things ourselves - no restrictions on activity level. What have you enjoyed? What would you stay away from? Thanks in advance!

Always good advice. We (and by we, I mean my wife) track room rates regularly for cruises we've booked (daily, sometimes!). We've probably saved $10k in the last 2 years as a result. Especially in the last few months that Royal has been cranking up the rates on everything, price watching gains a lot of value.

Escape Room - Oasis of the Seas
VoidoftheSeas replied to JudyAnderson's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
We just did this on the Oasis! It was so much fun. We finished in record time (sub-30 minutes). Great group of other Star Class guests and just a ton of fun overall. Not the hardest escape room I've done, but well designed to make sure everyone can participate regardless of their puzzle solving ability. -

We'll be on this one as well, with my parents and our two kids. This will actually be our second time on the Allure with the same group, so everyone is experienced and knows what to expect. My kids are distraught that we're not going to CocoCay, but we'll be doing a few excursions at the ports, so I think they'll be just fine.

New Applicable Hours for Drink Vouchers
VoidoftheSeas replied to WAAAYTOOO's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
It's this exactly. The edge case where people were burning their last few vouchers after midnight on the last night of a cruise is probably not large enough to warrant trying to save $40 a cruiser (I'd bet this actually made them money on people buying drinks after their vouchers run out). This is the second update to make the voucher program into a real benefit for Diamond rather than a conciliatory afterthought. This doesn't save them money on drinks - it saves them money on customer service staff.
