  1. I got Covid on Ovation a few weeks ago, I have had it before but it really knocked me around this time. We had dinner in the MDR at a large table.The woman sitting next to me said she had Covid. I thought she was joking and said so how did you just get on the ship? She said she lied, about 4 days later everyone that was at the table had Covid. Like you said why bother with people like that around.
  2. There’s not much at Mystery Island, there’s a few locals doing snorkeling but just DIY
  3. They do ,but I think the market is pretty well saturated. A Oasis or Icon 2 interporting between Singapore and Hong Kong would be a good money spinner. Especially if they could use a container terminal in Vietnam and Thailand along the way.
  4. From what I understand global is about the length of spectrum. There was an article quoting RC Singapore that only Kuala Lumpur and Hong Kong are the other Oasis capable ports in the area. If they could get the use of a couple of container terminals,say in Vietnam and Thailand .That would be a different story.
  5. Unfortunately there’s only a couple of ports that could handle a oasis class. Malaysia, Hong Kong and Singapore is pretty limiting.
  6. My edocs or condition of carriage for a cruise on the weekend still says 2 bottles. I’m in a solo cabin and I will be carrying on 2 bottles of wine with a copy of my edocs.
  7. So under the new system can Diamond Plus still get a bottle of wine as a welcome gift ? If so ,with 2 D+ from the same household ,is it one bottle?
  8. It looks like they have changed their policy in Australia to only one bottle of wine. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/aus/en/faq/questions/food-drink-onboard-policy Edit Each guest of drinking age may bring one bottle .
  9. It looks like they have changed there policy. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/aus/en/faq/questions/onboard-alcohol-guest-policy
  10. Is that a new policy? Because I’m solo in a week and I’m taking 2 bottles.
  11. A few drinks vouchers like the diamond vouchers for suite guests would be a good touch.
  12. Worked like a dream twangster , like you said no response but my partner was linked with in 24 hours.
  13. Thanks twangster ,so it must be a active email. I just wanted to link my partner to my account.
  14. 5 cans for around $33 , I believe all bars have it .
  15. Who’s is the chief LA in Miami, is it Courtney Brant ? [email protected] ? Last time I emailed the chief LA it was Molly.
  16. you can get the bucket of beer in Bud ,one for free .
  17. There’s speculation Royal will be going back to Hong Kong.Forgot about Shanghai it’s still to uncertain. If they go back to Hong Kong it will be with Spectrum. The big question is ,what will replace Spectrum in Singapore??
  18. I did my first solo cruise about 6 months ago and I really had apprehensions about sitting in the corner and having no one to talk to. But it was probably the best cruise I have ever been on . First thing I did was go to the solo get togethers and I had a ball. People in groups would ask if I was alone and take me under their wing and I made so many new friends. I think I would prefer to travel solo and meet strangers,a stranger is a empty book and you have to fill the pages in.
  19. Sometimes we do things different down here but they seem as if they had never heard of it.
  20. They put in a new duel gangway about 5 years ago that is supposed to Oasis ready.
  21. We won’t see a oasis for a while ,we just don’t have the market for one. There’s a few ports that have been upgraded to take one ,including Sydney OPT. OPT has had 50t bollards installed,the birth box has been enlarged and the new gangway put in is designed for a oasis style of ship. But as @twangstersaid OPT terminal just isn’t in the race to check passengers in. Brisbane,they can’t fill Quantum so it won’t be going there. We will just have to wait for a new Port Botany terminal .
  22. I also asked the diamond concierge here on Ovation and no BOGO for diamonds ,never heard of it.
  23. The LA on Ovation said no only diamond plus
  24. I am currently on ovation and I will ask the concierge and LA .
