CruisingfromClayton

Going back many years, movies that played in the onboard theater cycled constantly on your in-cabin tv. My daughters are excited about a few that are likely to be played on our cruise next week on Oasis (THANK YOU JohnK6404 for your blog!!!) and we hope to watch a few of them on day 3 in our CS, as we do not intend on leaving the boat at Pt Canaveral. Is that a valid plan or should we arrange our schedules to be in the theater for those movies we've just GOT TO see? (<- insert teenaged emphasis here with the "GOT TO" ). Second, we have dinner scheduled for day 1 at Chops. With Sail Away being pushed to 6pm, is a 6:45pm reservation time safe for being on deck to enjoy the Statue of Liberty and trip under the Verrazano bridge? Also, does Chops really take 2 full hours? Thank you in advance for your help and I'm sure more questions will follow!

Over the years, those machines became a regular "check point" for my husband and I to see if gravity helped drop a few coins when we played. Sometimes it represented the biggest win of our night in the casino!

Hello everyone! Where exactly on a reservation do we upload our vaccination cards? I thought it was on our Sail Pass but for some reason, I cannot seem to find where to upload the pics anywhere on the site. Thanks in advance!

MicDay, we live in Raleigh - our CVS is only showing 2 weeks out. Am I following the wrong path?

So we sail out of Bayonne on Oct 17th, headed to Canaveral then the Bahamas. When we first booked Allure (and subsequently Oasis), we had anticipated summer weather for both formals and daywear so had prepped with shorts, tank tops and lighter summer evening ware. We have always sailed out of Florida so not sure what weather conditions to expect for the first 2 days at sea. Has anyone sailed that time out of NJ? Would you suggest jeans or warmer tops? Thank you for your experience!

BrianB, we had 2 bids for our sailing on Oasis (10/17) - one for the 2 br Aqua and one for the Panoramic. I just checked and both bids are gone. I attempted to access the link through the email and it pops an error. I didn't receive the 'reservation modification' email but DID receive another email suggesting we consider bidding via RoyalUp. Guess we're back to square one

There is a member on this board who sails either this week or next who has kindly agreed to post it upon return. May I ask where you got days 1-4? I'd LOVE to see them as we sail on 10/17!

Beachy, would you please share the url for that info? I can't seem to find it. Thank you for the info!

I know it's early as her first week sailing ended yesterday, but has anyone sailed out of Bayonne on Oasis? I believe she is the first to sail out of that port since lockdown. We sail out 10/17 and Delta has literally changed our flights 3 times so need to be prepared for just about anything now lol.

Would you mind sharing which company you are using? We're finalizing our plans and would appreciate a few ideas for transport between the airport and the pier.

As a previous both soccer mom and central Floridian, I cannot fathom that they'd make it to the port in time. We lived in Oviedo so further East but a little further North. For us it was 3 1/2 hours with no traffic. With the required reservations and health pre-screen, I doubt it will work out. Good luck!

When did that change? I didn't think you could order from Johnny Rockets (beyond breakfast) unless you paid the cover charge - then the milkshakes were a la carte even beyond the cover charge. If this has changed, that would be amazing as my youngest loves their shakes!

We're booked for the excursion on our Oct 17 cruise on Oasis. They have literally cancelled every other excursion (Disney Springs/Orlando, Atlantis-sea lions & waterpark/Nassau and it's only 3 ports) so fingers crossed that we get to enjoy that experience. It actually made Jeopardy, complete with a picture: "Big Major Cay in this multi-island nation near Florida is famous for its beach of swimming pigs" - pretty cool!

Trying to wrap my head around this so my apologies if this was previously discussed. Here is our situation: first cruise was cancelled and elected to take the FCC towards a sailing on a different ship in October. If we decide that the COVID protocol for our October sailing is unacceptable, can we receive a cash refund? I was under the impression that if you took a FCC, future cancellations (regardless of the reason) had to be in the form of another FCC.

Very much hoping to hear she was able to sail today - fingers crossed!!!

We're sailing on Oasis (10/17) and one by one, our shore excursions are being cancelled. We received the cancellation email for our Orlando Outlets/Disney Springs a few weeks ago and today our Sea Lion/day at Atlantis was cancelled. Based on a few other posts, I expected the Orlando cancellation but was surprised by the Atlantis one. Does anyone know if we are even permitted to visit that resort? I was aware of the vaccination requirement and several other excursions are still available, but my daughters were very much looking forward to a day at their water park (in conjunction with the Sea Lion experience) and some time in their casino. Thanks in advance!

Are they able to use it in a manner similar to Disney's Magic Bands, so that it can be used for payment and cabin access? If so, that would be perfect!

Hey BrianB! How do you determine if it is the 'earliest time': are other times grayed out? We just checked in for our Oasis (10/17) and the first slot listed was 12:30, which seemed kind of late. Just curious!

Jmccaffrey, how did you determine there is a cap on the amount of people on the cruise? I have assumed there would be but haven't seen anything in writing...

I know I'm a bit late to this post but wanted to see if anyone knows if all in your party receive the star benefits or if it's limited to passengers 1 & 2. We have a total of 3 and wanted the aquatheater 2 br but it wasn't available. If we have our deluxe beverage packages credited for all 3 then it impacts the amount I'd bid. Thank you!
