California Dreamin' on... Navigator of the Seas (6/7/24)
HBCcruiser replied to mashley1021's topic in Live Blogs
Just curious as to why you purchased the VIP package (The Key) when you were in a suite and had all of the suite perks. ? We are on the Navigator in the 2bedroom GS in a few weeks and have sailed on her in a suite and in a non-suite with the Key in the past. I love the Key, but feel that my suite perks are pretty similar. Am I missing something? Also, it looks like you were in a jr. Suite yet got to eat breakfast in Chops. True? Good to know if so. I did not know that! Thanks for the review. -

Crown & Anchor Platinum and Emerald - Why should I care?
HBCcruiser replied to jeffmw's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I must politely disagree that the loyalty benefits are similar. NCL offers priority boarding, tender tickets and disembarkation, 2 free specialty dinners for 2 - one with a bottle of wine, free laundry, free wine around the world tasting, a ship tour and other discounts for Platinum and above members. Even if we have a suite I love getting those perks and will use them. We usually sail in suites and always get the drink package, so free drink vouchers do not really matter to us - same with the lounge access. I wish Royal's perks offered things that suite passengers could enjoy too. -

allure returns in 2026 All Things Galveston
HBCcruiser replied to Galveston Steve's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I tried searching for an answer to this question - Does anyone know what time(s) Harmony is on (EST or CST) when sailing out of Galveston on the Western Caribbean (Costa Maya, Roatan, Cozumel) cruise? Are there any time changes? Thanks in advance.- 971 replies

Same here. I give up! The system won't accept photos I have used in the past so I am thinking there is a tech glitch going on RN. Surprise, surprise...

Another weird luggage tag question
HBCcruiser replied to MIAMAW.129754's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
We also have the Key and are Emerald level but our tags say Platinum. Will this change? Does it even matter? -

We Learned Our Lesson - Only RCI from Now On!
HBCcruiser replied to whitsmom's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
NCL has had to make a lot of cutbacks - cleaning of cabins down to one time daily, reduction in entertainment staff, menu items being switched out for cheaper items (Filet for NY Strip). The POA has had trouble since the restart. Most of their staff are Americans who did not re-up their contracts. Staffing is a huge issue on that ship. A lot of avid NCL cruisers are looking elsewhere due to cutbacks and increasing costs. -

Hmmm I just ordered one for our February 17th NOS cruise. I hope they have them in stock!
