    Southern Caribbean on Odyssey from FLL.   It is 8 days and normally goes to Aruba and Curacao.  I have to fly wherever I cruise from, as I live in Colorado.  Although I Did drive to Galveston once.  Once...  🙂     Odyssey is one of my favorites.  love the playmakers and the sportsplex.

    I hear ya. Some of the trivias on Wonder were like that. We sat on the floor of Spotlight Karaoke (On-Air on other Oasis class ships) once or twice, the Schooner Bar fills up, etc.
    Oasis class is by far my favorite but one thing we did enjoy when we went back on Indy a couple years ago was the Star Lounge being used for some of those game show type events. Sometimes we just grabbed a small table in the back near the bar and watched the chaos while having a drink.

    I thought that too, but my cruise is 8 night long, so the rent for the days needed (9 or more) is ridiculous.

    I Called them and they said they could not add them manually until after 30 days, and I should call back after March 3rd if the points don't show up before then.  we shall see.  I earned my D+ on the ICON, and want the points for my 3/16 Odyssey Cruise 🙂

    Mark_A reacted to Smokey79 in Why do you sometimes have to "add cruises"   
    Because the Commodore 64 that hosts RC’s website can only do so much?
     
     Honestly, I think that part of their system doesn’t refresh frequently enough for modern standards. However, spending money on IT improvements to quicken customers ability to see something  that isn’t time constrained sooner possibly isn’t the best use of funds. I’d argue being able to book more than four on an invoice would be preferable or at least I could argue the potential cost savings. Or in my case, simply being able to show the correct amount due on the invoice.

    This only furthers my assumptions of them making the payouts higher than usual for the inaugural month to entice more gamblers then do the bait switch! I watched so many youtubers all winning net positive! My inner degenerate mind screams at me to go hard at the casino in march but my rational logical self says it's too late don't do it!

    I don't gamble a lot but on one day in about 30 minutes I turned 100 dollars into 185. On the other day I went to the casino I played 100 and left about an hour later with 400.  I only played penny slots.  This was on the inaugural Sailing.

    Probably a table near the Sorrentos or outside the English pub. I think we spent most of our time people watching and enjoying drinks and pizza between those two spots.
    In two cruises, we only ended up in the Theater once!
