Last Lion

Thank-you for the info. And how did you make the choice? Through your TA? The app? Website?

I will be Diamond  Plus in March. What are the possible amenities? How far ahead did you have to chose?

Am I reading this right? I see a cost of $107 for a beach lounger for two at Labadee in my cruise planner for a March cruise.

For a lounger. Nothing else is included.

Can the BOGO be used for the lunch Taste of Royal and the Chops lunch?

Mmmmn! Small glass of below-average bubbly!

Does Royal charge for these yoga sessions? If so how much? Are the instructors any good or just going through the motions?

 

Can the Diamond Plus BOGO benefit be used for lunch rather than dinner?

Specifically for the Taste of Royal lunch and Chop’s Lunch?

And would I still be restricted to days one and two- that is hard to do logistically.

I really love lamb but didn’t realize it is considered on a level with lobster!

Yes they do look like a weapon. That was one of my concerns. “Gun” is a misnomer.

Can we bring a battery powered massage gun on board?

Is the Elite drinks benefit just for happy hour or can it be used outside of 5-7 pm?

Also, can it be used in the MDR during this time?

ROTS deck plan still shows a concierge lounge. Is this true and if so can D+ use it?

Next week is final payment for a cruise out of New Orleans. Right now booked for my wife and I. However, she probably can’t make it- but might.

Should I keep the booking for the both of us or change it to just myself but then add her later if she can make it closer to the cruise date?

What would be the cost and Royal points effect of adding her later?

 

 

 

Sailed out of NOLA (locals hate that phrase btw) many times on CCL.

Will be on the Rad December 1st.

We consider these cruises two vacations in one- the city and the cruise.

Highly advise spending at least two days in town at one end of the cruise. Ya won’t regret it!

There are still some people who have the automatic tipping removed from their account. For whatever reason. Rarely do these folks admit this.
 

If they chose to instead tip with cash directly to individuals the envelopes will come in handy.

 

I would still like to know if cabin/dining room staff know whether or not you are auto tipping.

Take the ferry to Hamilton. Return on it early to avoid full ferries close to sail time.

I thought that if you booked for two people but changed it to a solo before final payment due , you would get double points. Is this not correct t?

So if you book a cabin for two. Pay for two. Then have to cancel one person two things happen:

1. You get a refund for the port charges for the one person- good

2. The other person does not get double C&A points unless you rebook at the current rate? This seems very unfair.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you are D+ but travelling solo, would you get one free specialty restaurant meal because you bought another one? (Ie. two specialty meals on different days for the price of one).

Or does this benefit disappear when solo?

So I have a bad back and my morning routine is 30 mins of heating pad then a series of stretches then a short walk/run. This gets me mobile for the day.

It seems they don’t allow heating pads but do allow things like CPAP machines.

If I brought a doctor’s note stating the heating pad is part of medical treatment (it is) would that get a heating pad aboard? Any other suggestions? 

Thanks for the answers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well Pattycruise and KLA you both were exactly right. Just got the message- upgraded for the princely sum of only $60. Hurray for me!

All right, I put in three Royal Up Bids on three different types of cabin. Two are now showing status of “expired”. One shows status “pending”. What exactly does this mean? Thanks for the answers.

Let me get this right. If you have double points on an existing cabin, you would lose them if your Royal Up is accepted?

I am at FLL right now. Just had the antigen test. Price was $59 as it was a month ago when I booked. So no change here.

On the OOTS on Saturday. New to that ship.

Where can we book the shows? Would the Diamond Lounge attendant do it?
