Cool, if mine doesn't work I may have to ask you 

Hi RestingBirds,  it all counts . On our forthcoming cruise we got free unlimited drinks package, free WiFi and $100.00 room credit.

I guess if your from Maryland, you put that on everything!

I'll leave this one to an expert. Coneyraven, this one is all yours. 

Winner's Pack of cards was $39. Extra cracker was $5 and Dauber was $3 - total $47
The next pack up was 9 cards for all three games at $59.
The players pack of 3 cards for three games was $29
Total time for game play was about 1 hour.
The Bingo host also made mention how the Cruise director brags about the$7 Million spent on multimedia for the 270 Experience and their "Virtual Fireworks display"  He presented a free Virtual fireworks display on the projector that lasted 1 minute!  Ha!
 

We found it in the Windjammer on embarkation day when we was on the Indy in October although we did have to ask where it was and it was in short supply so I hope they are not going to stop putting it out as I LOVE IT  but you could be right DocLc as things always change if demand is not as high as it was. 

From PR Week:
That's me!

No Freestyle machines on the Navigator. A list of the ships that have them can be found here: https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2015/07/20/coca-cola-freestyle-machines-royal-caribbean
Sabor caters quite well to all tastes. The barbacoa might be a good choice for someone who doesn't want something spicy as it was more sweet than spicy. Dinner if the items can be requested less/non spicy, too. 

That's really cool, my wife and I keep looking at one on the Indy around April coming to Southampton which we would love as you get a couple Caribbean Islands plus I think about 6 days straight at sea and a couple of ports of call after that which would be great as I love days at sea as you get to chill out and do loads on board  .

We just booked our first transatlantic cruise!!  April 5-20th on Brilliance! I have always wanted to go to Ireland and hubby said go for it.

Miami Vice sounds pretty good,  I think my wife will like the combo. I will suggest she tries it on Navigator  in August.

Hi Geema, my wife's favourite is a pina colada and mine is a B52 , I know it's not very manly but I love the taste 

If you are going on a Cruise to Europe or the Canaries please feel free to ask any questions and I will try to help and if I don't know I will try to find out for you. Obviously  I haven't  been everywhere but I will  do my best.
Ships, ports of call , UK airports, shore excursions  etc.

Thanks DocLc, shame about the freestyle machines but not the end of the world. As for Sabor hopefully he will be ok with that as he is a bit of a plain Jane where food is concerned.

Excited  about this one but even more excited about our Fjords cruise in Aug 2018 

Matt is spot on , we done it last cruise and had to eat in Giovannis the first night and Chops the second but they did let us change our dining  times once on board. Very big advantage though  is the saving , it cost us less for both restaurants than 1 visit to Chops. BARGAIN 

Miami Vice sounds pretty good,  I think my wife will like the combo. I will suggest she tries it on Navigator  in August.

Good luck, but it seems to be MIA onboard of late. 

Interesting. Many ships do start out in Southampton before moving elsewhere. However, a Quantum class ship would have a longer sailing window out of the UK as it's a good cold weather ship. It would also be a good response to MSC's new builds as their Oasis-like clone is set to sail from North America (likely Miami) in 2019. 

The Windjammer is my first port of call when we get on the Indy to get me some Honeystung Chicken 

Johnny Rockets is about having a good burger, certainly above average compared to the burgers you might find in the buffet onboard.

We went once for food on Freedom, not expecting a gourmet burger, so for what it is, it's good.  There's no singing and dancing (that we saw).  My wife loves milkshakes (they were free with our C&A discount), so we went back just for that later in the week.  We had no issues with food.  Sounds like firegal ended up with a lazy worker, which is too bad.
We met a worker from Russia who loved working on the ship, and was trying to work her way up the chain, so she had to work at each restaurant to get the experience needed.  We ran into her in port one day and chatted with her, then went back to JR on our last day to say goodbye.  She cared about her work, and the customer being satisfied.

We love Johnny Rockets it ticks all the boxes. Fun , great burgers and shakes and for $6 what more could you want. 
Oh and one other good thing is that if you want to chill on your balcony you can get take out .
 

My wife loves the Miami Vice. Half Pina Colada, half Strawberry Daquiri, All tasty. Don't have a particular fave myself.

Well, if we had to go by volume drunk, I'm sure I drank a trough of the Liberty's coffee.  Margaritas were mighty good tho.
