Also.....I always travel with this: Everyone's device gets charged....only 1 plug used
My cubes are similar to that (multiple outlets, USB's, and C charging). I was just hoping to not have to leave everyone's devices in the one room. I don't doubt whoever sleeps in the room with the outlets will be woken up or barged in on constantly.

I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I did a forum search and couldn't find an answer.
Does anyone know if the only outlets in cabin 8500 on the Mariner are in the bedroom area?
We have 3 adults and a teen (Great Grandma, Grandma, Mom, and Daughter
) staying in this cabin and I'm wondering how many outlets there are available. We have between us 4 cell phones, rechargeable hearing aids, and a laptop. I was considering pulling out the cooler (or TV) to see how it was plugged in and using a multi-outlet cube on one or both to give us a few more outlets if necessary in the "living room" area. Has anyone done that before? I have 2 American style plug cubes and 2 Euro plug adapter cubes that should work (I think?).

Who is surprised that RCI is giving out new/different information from what we all seem to think?
I for one am totally shocked by this

I don't think they will stop going to St Thomas for the simple fact that more and more islands are instituting these rules. It is becoming a "vaccinated only" world, and those that haven't gotten onboard will be left behind.
We are even beginning to see in this country, cities and municipalities starting to require proof of vaccine for restaurants, bars, museums, broadway plays...............
I just saw something about that...in NYC isn't it?

I’d say that #1 is the most likely. Considering Royal Caribbean themselves have said that the ships end up being around 90% vaccinated anyway, they probably don’t care too much about losing the unvaccinated.
#2 & #3 affect a lot more people than #1, so I would imagine they’d take the route of least annoyance to customers here.
Agreed. The financial loss from the unvaccinated cancelling would be minimal compared to the loss from both vaccinated and unvaccinated I would imagine. As terrible as this sounds...it also may attract those who are uncomfortable sailing with unvaccinated 12 and up's filling up those empty rooms.

Thanks smokey! I feel like a doof I actually just found a thread about this same thing in the general discussion forum. Where is the facepalm emoji when I need it

Hopefully this wasn't addressed anywhere else (if it was I apologize) but am I reading correctly that all USVI ports now require all passengers aboard a cruise to be vaccinated or the ship cannot dock? Also, from what I understand RC is not canceling those ports just making a vaccine mandatory for anyone boarding whos itinerary includes a stop in USVI. Is that correct?

If you're sailing out of Port Canaveral (or just missing lobster night from all the cancelled cruises like I do) there's an AYCE lobster place about 50 minutes away in Orlando. It's like pre-gaming (or post-gaming if your stomach can handle it) for the real deal on the boat

What kind of cabin will you be in? That alone would help on tips and advice. Welcome to the blog.
Hi Mike,
We booked Boardwalk Balconies. I did read they can be a little noisy but they looked so cool!

Hi Everyone!
We are brand spankin' new to Royal Caribbean and sailing December 19th on the Harmony of the Seas. We were originally booked with Carnival (which is who we have previously always cruised with). Our original sailing with them was December 18th but they pulled a dirty and cancelled one of our seven room reservations because one person in our party is on oxygen. It wasn't the cancellation that got my goat but the way it was handled. They offered to rebook us for January 1st (apparently something magical would have happened with COVID between the 18th and the 1st I guess?) but I politely declined (Ok...truth be told maybe it wasn't so polite), accepted a full refund, and contacted RC who gave me a fantastic deal but I digress....
If anyone has any tips or advice for a bunch of first-timers I would greatly appreciate it!

I think you are right on the money to complain before any "potential" changes happen. How many times do you see something that was changed from free to having a fee go back to being free later on....almost never. If it does, generally the quality has significantly declined (I'm pointing at you Fish N Ships
) Why wait until there's a fire when you could have prevented it in the first place. Most companies I know aren't to keen on loosing a stream of revenue once they have it so I would imagine this would be much of the same. If they start charging and making money off of it, it is HIGHLY unlikely they will want to make it free again.
