Hello! The remainder of 2025 including Cape Liberty will be out the week of FEB 12 🙂 

The schedule for release is only for Oasis and Quantum class for pre-booking (and only a limited number of shows). They open on the first day of the month, the month before your cruise. For example if you leave February 1st they would open on January 1st. If you leave on February 28, they open January 1st.
All other classes do not allow pre-booking of shows.
Important note: Royal does not release all available reservations for Oasis and Quantum class either. A few are held back for onboard booking, and there's usually still room for walk-ups at the larger venues.

Thanks. I keep looking and getting conflicting answers. I'll be onboard next month so I'll get the definitive anwer.

Looks like there are a few versions floating around out there. However, looking at Royal Caribbean's official marketing website, the 3-5 night start looks like the most up-to-date version. The 4-5 was dated 2020, and the 3-night is dated 2022.

Twangster's entire comment was correct, but this part is spot on. "Rebating" is a hot topic here because it's a competition between small, independent agents/agencies (such as MEI) and big box stores (like Costco or Amex Travel). 

 
This is true and varies by agency, as well as what percentage Royal Caribbean pays the agency (the more volume you do, the higher the commission percentage).
So yes, repricing to a lower fare affects commission (as does adding a casino code, which DRASTICALLY affects commission, don't get me started on that one).

Bottom line- We still stand by our service, and we have to get paid. I simply cannot give away $300 when I'm making $200.  

Let the "I have to sail on the newest ships" and "the ship is the destination" crowds have them. I'll go on multiple trips in bigger staterooms on older ships for the same money (or less).

Good to hear you got this resolved.
Yet another reason why we always use an experienced travel agent rather than booking directly with a cruise line.

I think it would be a brilliant idea. Nuclear power has changed drastically over the decades and is safe, efficient, and creates incredibly little waste. Definitely the way we should be looking towards on land as well.

Enjoy!!

They will still often leave notes in your cabin about specials you are entitled to. I think they do a really good job at even making Gold level feel appreciated at times. So go and be proud of your Gold status!

I understand the safety issues with the equipment they do have on board, but I think it is very lacking. Just keep eating, I guess! Haha!

That seems like the only way to make sure payment is correct, thanks.

If you go back into the Royal Up bid, you can make changes at any time. Just cancel and re-bid.

I agree the ship is almost at capacity, I am happy I just got what I believe if the barcode hack worked a  JR Suite, it s fine for one person, and they wont let me bring my weights onboard anyway 🙂

This might be an unpopular opinion. I think it is probably about time to retire the Bionic Bar. Super neat novelty the first time you see it, but I think it gets my drinks right about 50% of the time when it is working, and it's a waste of space most of the time. They usually have at least 1-2 crew members there to make sure the thing doesn't mess up when it is open as well. Might as well just turn it back into the Champagne Bar or something. 

On our most recent sailing on Explorer earlier this month, we had one for our entire 6 night sailing.
