I agree completely! If you can book an aft boardwalk on deck 10 or 11 on the Oasis class ships, the view is amazing and you can enjoy the aqua show from your balcony.

The kids were quite a bit younger and we didn't even know there was a Flowrider - we bought tickets right in the port. If they are offered on the cruise planner, I think I would go that route just to be sure that Justin has a reservation. Under FAQ's the website does say you can buy tickets there - I would just be concerned about availability if there is more than one ship in port.

There sure is lol - my crew have enjoyed it. There is also an Effy store - so you will both enjoy the port lol.

When we sailed on Explorer out of Ravenna last August, we booked Royal's coach service from the airport to Ravenna but then booked Ravenna to city centre afterwards. Yes, they are all coach buses. My invoices showed the different pricing for both routes and there was no issue. It might be worth phoning again. The person I spoke with did have to put me on hold a few times while sorting this out but it was all organized as we had requested. Good luck

My husband can attest that they are lol. Your cabin attendant can bring you an extra comforter so get what you need to make it an option. You will not even believe how much space you have out there. It's amazing.

I can't comment on the hammock but if you have 7688 or 7388 you will never want to leave that balcony. We try to book these on the ships that have them whenever possible. You will have two full loungers. I'm sure you already know, but the third bed is a pullman which isn't ideal, but like your idea of a hammock, the option to get some extra blankets and a pillow and enjoy the loungers at night is there. Enjoy!

You can absolutely take a taxi (or water taxi) over to Atlantis and spend a few hours touring the property. If you get dropped off at Royal Tower you can walk through the casino and also explore the huge aquarium that is downstairs from the lobby. You can cut through to the Crown Tower as well and explore the shops. You can also enjoy a nice walk around the marina and all the shops and restaurants there. You will not be able to access the waterpark or beach area of the property and perhaps not the Cove or Reef Towers but plenty of other thing to see. I would have no hesitation doing this safety wise.

We sure did ..... and they were delicious. This is not helping with the cruise withdrawal we are going through now is it?

Omg it glitched then posted so many times. Thanks for fixing Sabrina … I don’t want to be banned from the pub

I think it’s great that in a matter of an hour you and Justin went from not really being pub people to doing Irish car bombs and tequila shots in the pub! No need to break yourselves in gently…just go for it! See you there tonight

Well how cool is that! We had a good chat with Stephen last night…at the pub…and he told us he had a great time with your family yesterday. Now you can say you have experienced the Royal Loft concert series.

So great getting caught up in person…love our conversations. We cover a lot of topics in a short period of time. Lavender martini in the schooner bar can be our tradition when we meet up again…hopefully not too far in the future.

I can confirm…Dave has seen Justin at flowrider so if you want to see him…head there.

The museum was closed for renovations when we visited last August. Perhaps it is open again. Either way, there are washrooms where tours begin on the island.

Wishing your family the same - you have had your share of eventful travels. So happy that you have another La Bamba dinner to look forward to. Enjoy!!
