  1. Question for anyone in the know - we switched over to MyTime dining late in the game for our upcoming cruise and the only reservation slots are the very latest ones. As a diamond cruiser, does the concierge have any weight to get us some earlier time slots? We've never had reason to use the concierge before, but would take advantage of this service if they can help us out this time. Thanks!
  2. Thank you! That's what I suspected but I wanted to be sure.
  3. Has anyone stayed in cabin 1600 on Radiance of the seas? In videos it looks absolutely beautiful but I've seen some mixed reviews. Some say it is quiet and a perfect location; others have complained about the noise from the deck above - although many of those are older reviews. Can anyone provide some recent experiences?
  4. Thank you! This is exactly the info I needed.
  5. Has anyone done the hot air balloon in Coco Cay? Trying to determine if it's worth it. Does it actually fly around the island a little bit or does it just kinda go up and hover and then come back down? Thanks!
  6. Booked this as a (sort of) last minute trip for the fall. First time on Independence but have sailed both Freedom and Liberty, so this will finish out the Freedom class for us. Looking forward to meeting others on this itinerary. Amy & Frank
  7. Just booked this cruise and we can't be more excited! We cruised Alaska back in 2017 and have always wanted to go back. Looking forward to meeting others sailing with us. Amy & Frank
  8. We will be traveling on the Summit in the Retreat category and will have access to both Luminae and Blu for dining. Can we also choose to dine in the MDR on some nights if we want to?
  9. It's been a roller coaster for us. We've had to cancel two cruises over the past year and reschedule another. Hoping this itinerary sticks. Lol. Since we're less than 90 days away from this one, I'd like to think it'll come to fruition. Anyone else out there on this sailing?
  10. Traveling on our first B2B cruises next spring. The midway point will be Vancouver. We'd like to book an excursion in Vancouver but all of the options have airport drop-off included. Obviously, we're not going to the airport. Does anyone know if there be excursion options for those getting back on the ship? Thx.
  11. This was VERY helpful. Thank you!!
  12. These questions might seem to have obvious answers for some, but my husband and I will be doing our first B2B cruising next spring and I'm not sure what to expect. 1. Do we have to complete online check-in through the app for both legs of the itinerary or only the first? 2. Do we have to disembark with everyone else and then reboard for the second leg? 3. If we have to disembark, are we allowed to head directly back to our cabin when we reboard or wait until everyone is cleared to enter cabins in the afternoon? Thanks for the help everyone!
  13. If the cruise line cancels, insurance doesn't play into it. They will offer choices of refund, future cruise credit, different itinerary, etc. If I have to cancel for any reason, it applies. Keep in mind - at least for RC - if you haven't paid your full fare yet AND you have a non-refundable deposit, you will still lose your deposit. If you've paid your full fare, you get everything back, including the deposit. This is why I always get refundable deposit as well. The last cruise I had to cancel wasn't paid in full so we lost our $500 deposit. That's a huge chunk of change. Having the refundable deposit would've only increased our total cruise cost by less than $300 so we wouldn't have been out quite so much in the end.
  14. After having to cancel 2 cruises over the course of 18 months, I learned my lesson. I *always* get travel insurance and I *always* do refundable deposits.
