We're going to be on Harmony.

Many thanks for your thoughts on this.  We'll get on that facebook page and continue to watch for suggestions.

We have a 7-day Western Caribbean cruise booked, 4 adults and a 20-month-old.  I'm looking for suggestions for equipment to bring and any other thoughts for this trip.

Thank you all for your comments!

Our cruise leaves on Feb. 17, just found the that the Book is sold out already for all shows.  Are more seats going to open once onboard?

We have a Southern Caribbean cruise next month. I'm looking for excursion ideas.   Most of the excursion info says local currency.  Does that mean I need to exchange currency or are they willing to take US dollars?

Suggestions would be great!

We just completed our Symphony of the Sea cruising the Mediterrean.  The earliest we could board was 12:30.  We also stayed in Rome, had a party of 5 so we had hired a van.  We had no problem with embarkation.  

I used to be able to print out the calendar after ordering the specialty dining and excursions but no more.  I know they want everyone to use their phones but "give me paper"!  Has anyone figured out how to print it out?  We get on Symphony next week.

I know Symphony has just been cruising the Med for the last month but was hoping that someone can upload their cruise compass.  We leave in 3 weeks so I'm trying to get specialty dining worked around the entertainment.  Also, has the food improved in the MDR?  I was hearing it frequently was served cold.

We're going to be joining you from Rome on May 25-June 1.  We have 5 in our party.  We haven't been able to book any of the dining or entertainment either with only 23 days to go.  I sure hope it opens prior to the cruise.

I know you get OBC for holding at least 100 shares of RC stock.  I've looked on their website and can't find the form to complete.  Can anyone help?

Thank you all for your comments.

We're on Symphany of the Sea leaving from Rome on May 25.  One of the ports is on Sunday, May 28.  Only 2 options are available on the RC website.  Is the port close enough to just get off the ship and shop or do we need to go to tripadvisor and find an alternative?

We're booked on Symphony leaving Rome on May 25th.  We have a stop in Barcelona on Sunday but I see only 2 excursion options on RC.  Consequently we were interested in a 3rd party option.  Do I understand that half the passengers will be disembarking in Barcelona completing their cruise with new passengers embarking?  Is this going to be a mess trying to get in and out of the terminal?

Thank you all for your input!  The ship arrives at 7 a.m. but flight leaves at 3:50 so we should have time for transport.  I will investigate private transfers as we have 5 in our party.

Thank you all for your comments.  I'll get it ordered!

We're booked on Symphany of the Sea leaving Rome on May 25th.  My planner is allowing me to select the excursions but the only option for Wi Fi is Surf and Stream.  I don't want the "stream" part.  On previous cruises I could select just the "surf" option for a lower cost and it's certainly available on the planner by now.  Has anyone else run into this?  Will that option be available after final payment date?

We'll be on Symphony of the Sea out of Rome next May.  We'll be a party of 6 so am looking for suggestions on lodging and shuttle to the port.  We plan to spend a couple days in Rome pre-cruise to sightsee.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Alaska was wonderful.  We did the 4 day land option to Denali then picked up Radiance of the Sea at Seward, arriving at Vancouver in July, 2022.  We would do it again in a minute.  We loved the land portion and the ports in Alaska.  I do agree that Radiance was a bit of a disappointment.  It was an older ship, fewer entertainment and dining options.  We took a family cruise in July, 2019, round trip leaving from Seattle on Ovation to Alaska and liked the ship much better but had fewer ports.  We really liked Ketchikan that was unavailable on the round trip cruise.

Either the one way or round trip was a wonderful trip.  Enjoy Alaska!

Thank you all for your insights.  One less test to order!

I know we have to take a Covid test before we get off the ship in Vancouver.  We'll be staying there for a few days.  Do we need to test again before we get on a flight back to U.S.?

I received a note from RC.  It sounds like we need to have a Covid test before we get on the ship in Seward and again while on the ship before we can enter Canada.  Is a Covid test required to get back to the US from Vancouver?

Thank you Matt and AGSLC5.  I'll check it out!

We just got off the Allure.  Mama Mia was wonderful, ice skating, comedians, love and marriage show, and the water show.  I booked everything once on board, they had staff to help you at Boleros on the first day.  The piano man at the Schooner bar was great!

We have an Alaskan cruise scheduled for July going one way from Seward to Vancouver.  Any ideas on how to rent a scooter for the cruise?
