    Officially no, but if you use your card to enter and she follows you in, nobody would really know.

    The free picture (per person) is a very underrated perk.  I forgot about it my first couple of times but now it's a nice little souvenir to remember each cruise or port individually.  Now I have pictures taken at every opportunity and then just pick the best 1 or 2 to download free on the last night.

    For us, it depends who the cruise director is. That is how we decide if we are going to attend or not. If it's a high energy, funny, CD, we try our best to go.  Much like The Quest, IMO, the CD makes or breaks that show.
    However, our last two sailings, we have skipped (even one with Ricky Matthews who we love), because of the times that others have mentioned above. They keep doing the show at 2:30pm now and that does not work as well for us.

    We have been on 80+ cruises with Royal Caribbean and we have never ever gone to a L&M game OR a Quest.  Just not something we enjoy.

    VirtKitty reacted to TessFromFlorida in MyTime isn’t really my time?   
    On embarkation day, soon after boarding, I go to the MDR with a list of times. Some days I may need to shift by 30 minutes or so, but all in all, it works. We show up about 10 minute before our scheduled time and are seated quickly.

    I did the rental car thing which allowed me to stop at a Target and replenish sunscreen and other things.  
    Plenty of time.  No need to rush.

    I have done Miami to Port Canaveral with no issue. I used a one-way car rental and drove myself.  I wouldn't consider flying and the Brightline is too out of the way and could be subject to delays.

    SWEEEEEET! 😎😎
    A long way off I know,  but if the plans to connect SunRail to Brightline at MCO come to fruition, we could Uber 5 miles to the Longwood SunRail station and never put a wheel on godforsaken I-4 or 528 until the Brightline Cocoa station!
    Wow! This is like Christmas!!!!

    Makes it much easier to go from Port Canaveral to MCO Airport. No opening date announced

    VirtKitty reacted to Marc Van Niekerk in Booking MyTime while waitlisted for Early Seating   
    We recently had this same situation.  We had My Time for our cruise departing this weekend and had booked all of our meal times when they became available on cruise planner.
    A week ago we got cancellation emails for all our reservations and when we looked it was because we had been changed to Early seating.
    We did have our TA confirm too that the change had happened.
    I can't tell you if we were passed over at any time but I can say we did get the change we had been waitlisted for.

    I like the Wow bands.  It was easy to open my stateroom door using it.  If they are going to discontinue them fleet wide, I hope they give their bartenders scanners that will scan the seapass while it remains in the lanyard.

    VirtKitty reacted to WAAAYTOOO in Casino Royal Prime Certificates   
    Certificates can be combined if they are the same offer code.  I am assuming, but do not know for sure, that the offer code on any 2 annual Prime tier comps would be the same…..so I’m tentatively saying the answer to your question is “yes”.  Just be aware that the upgrade for a combined offer is pretty crappy….usually.  We have found, over the years, that we are better off keeping our annual tier certificates separate.  The small upgrade that you receive by combining them just doesn’t compare to 2 entirely separate 7 night cruises on the ship(s) of my choice.
    Can it be done ?  Probably.  Should it be done ?  Not in our case.

    VirtKitty reacted to twangster in Double points for Solo traveller in a double occupancy room?   
    7517 has been recategorized to a 4U, interior with virtual balcony.  It is not a studio cabin.
    If you booked it as a single guest you should get double C&A points.  It wouldn't hurt to contact C&A and have them review it.

    VirtKitty reacted to Traveling Mike in Double points for Solo traveller in a double occupancy room?   
    I travel solo 80% of the time.  When I book a regular cabin I get double points because I am paying for two people.  When I book a cabin for a solo person "Category 2F - Studio Ocean View Balcony Stateroom" I get 1 point because I am only paying for one person.  I have had a cruise that I booked for 2 people and my son did not go on the cruise and I ended up getting double the points and his taxes and port fees refunded.  Crown and Anchor can fix any of them that are not correct they just need a booking number to look up the cruise.  On one of my very old cruises I did not have a booking number and they told me to give them a picture of me on the ship and they would give me credit.

    I agree with @WAYNO.  Keep the room.  Even if your wife is fully ambulatory, she will still be limited in how far she can hobble.  Staying closer to the elevators will be a blessing.  Don’t worry about Royal “taking the room away”.  It won’t happen.

    First of all, this is only my experience, and my opinion...
    I have pretty severe arthritis.  I have some not-so-good days, and some better days.  I don't know when or why some days are so totally different than other days.   I don't use a wheelchair or scooter, but I have to be deliberate with every step I take.  On my last Navigator cruise, I asked for a cabin 'closer'  to an elevator, and explained the reason.  The rep put us in an accessible cabin.  When I attempted to argue out of it, he insisted and said that's exactly what accessible rooms are for. 
    And once in the cabin, although I did not need the extra room, I surely appreciated the absence of thresholds to step over.
