  1. Not following basic etiquette is cringeworthy. just have manners and courtesy for others. Thankfully none of us in this group do any of that.
  2. So is it possible to upgrade/change rooms from interior to JS (not via RoyalUp) in order to get those points by just calling RCCL?
  3. I've mostly sailed Forward, thus far. It's quieter as far as people are concerned, but depending on cabin i found i heard more ship noises. And you can feel the motion if it is rougher seas, which didn't bother me. Rocked me to sleep. but i'd like to check out the other sections as well.
  4. I love cruising for the ship, the open water, the views and the convenience and practicality of it all. Even with today's fuel costs and rising cruise costs, it's still reasonable. You get a week's worth of travel in one place! Imagine trying to book a regular trip nowadays that includes food, nice hotel and entertainment plus travel costs all under $1500 pp.?
  5. Paradise beach was very nice. Beach or pool and friendly service for food and drink.
  6. do you recall how much the public bus was? RC has an "excursion" called Horseshoe Bay beach transfer which i paid $29 to go back and forth to the beach but if the bus is safe, reliable and cheaper than that, who needs the "excursion", right?
  7. yes my time dining is available to reserve ahead of time. i suggest once it becomes available on the cruise planner, you book it for each day.
  8. Taste is very subjective. I have yet to try it yet, but it is disappointing that CK keeps getting this Meh rating as it is supposed to be for suite guests. You have expectations as a suite guest. RCCL should really step it up a notch to impress in my opinion, or it loses these guests to other lines. just my opinion.
  9. Oasis had better straws too! hopefully this is fleet wide. i was bringing my own straws on board. LOL
  10. hmmm i guess that does stink that it is not reciprocal, but I guess it's good to at least get to Elite.
  11. Thanks all for the input! I realized that Xmas falls on the last night of the cruise. Hopefully all the last minute craziness of the last night doesn't affect the holiday spirit. Do they do special holiday meals in MDR or specialty restaurants?
  12. bringing string lights is a great idea to decorate my door and my room. thanks!
  13. Do you guys do anything different or pack anything interesting for a holiday cruise, whether it be for Xmas, New Years, Halloween, etc.? Let me know! I plan on doing a xmas cruise at the end of this year myself. I imagine there will be more kids on this cruise. Maybe i'll hide some xmas treats/toys throughout the cruise for kids to find. I just joined one of those hide a duck cruising groups on facebook, so thought that would be cute.
  14. oh that stinks. please let us know what happened. Apparently there is a weather disturbance off the coast of Bermuda with 10% chance of formation in 48 hours. Also something more powerful off coast of Mexico too.
  15. Once allowed, muster is the priority. Don't be one of those people who wait til the last minute and get called out over loudspeaker. it takes 1 min to do. Remember to connect to ships WIFI so you can book all reservations. Usually that means you have to login to your account or create a new account. After that, grab a drink and go make reservations at specialty dining because those can book up fast. On my last trip, the app was showing those restaurants as sold out, which was obviously a glitch, so do it in person. then you can reserve entertainment as you start planning out your week, while you get lunch. cabins don't usually open up until after 1pm, so hopefully you have a carry on with your bathing suit and go sit by the pool or jacuzzi and relax.
  16. This is a great thread. I was also thinking it may be easier to get to Diamond level with RC and then switch to Celebrity because I want a more adult experience as well, but do you think it matters? Can we collect points just the same with Celebrity?
  17. can we order multiple dishes as if it was the MDR or is there a restriction?
  18. luggage holder yes. lanyard no. I don't like things hanging around my neck. but i do use a badge holder that I took from work that i can attach to shorts or shit. or i just keep it in my purse.
  19. for the 3 night Dining package.... Can you visit multiple restaurants each night of the package (for ex. lunch and dinner) or can you only do one restaurant each night?
  20. I had savory bites on Jewel. Wasn't impressed. I guess my expectations due to all the hype were higher than reality.
