We just got an email yesterday that our Symphony cruise this Sunday would no longer be stopping in Falmouth and Nassau which instead, were replaced with Costa Maya and Cozumel. I haven’t really looked into these ports yet but how are they like? What do you recommend doing there?

We will be on Symphony at the end of this month and I was just wondering how the main dining room works as of right now. I heard that reservations are recommended, but does anyone know how it would be if we did not have a reservation in place?

I booked a late August cruise via Expedia (i know, bad choice!) a few months ago. My grandma has decided last minute that she does not want to cruise anymore (due to COVID and other means) and I was just wondering how the cancellation policies are with Royal. Even though I booked through Expedia, would Cruise with Confidence still apply? Also would it be a full refund or simply FCC? We are cruising on August 29. Thanks!

Just out of curiosity, are there any ports/stops which you are not a very big fan of?

Thank you all for your input! I have decided to stick with Symphony and we’re more excited than ever!

My family and I are going on our first cruise in August (hopefully!) and we just purchased a 6 night trip on the Symphony of the Seas last week. I checked again for deals today and found the Allure of the Seas to be about a thousand dollars cheaper in total. I don’t know how the exchange process works through Expedia. Should I keep with my Symphony trip or look into the Allure one?
