That's not what he was saying, but yes I let myself get upset over something stupid. Shouldn't have said that. I'm not going to comment further.

Hopefully you'll have an early check-in then. Not hard to get!
-
Yep, I always get an early check-in time since I check-in at midnight the night it opens. It's not that hard. If you want to show up early, get an early time. Otherwise, follow the damn check-in times.
-
They already have masses of people standing around. And the "last minute emails" don't work because they DON'T have strict adherence to the boarding times and everyone knows it. It would only take a month of them turning away people until it's their boarding time for people to get the message. Otherwise, don't bother having check-in times because it just means people who actually show up at the right time get pissed off because certain people think they're more important than everyone else.

I've gotten those emails the past two cruises and showed up at the normal time and got on just fine. The second time I didn't even see the email until I was on the ship. I would just go by your original check-in time.

It wasn't until we got through the porters and I went to park in the garage that I realized I could have just turned left to go up there instead of doing the U around to the porter area. I was sooo mad, but will probably do that next time.

So, back in May of last year, we went on Harmony of the Seas. The Miami terminal was utter chaos. We had a check-in of 10:30, but there were a ton of people there. We drove and waited for probably 30 minutes to even get to the porter and then we had to wait in a long line to get to check-in. Once actually in the terminal, we were on the ship within like ten minutes. I recently saw a video of some vloggers going on the Icon in Miami and they took an Uber, drove right to the porter and got checked-in within ten minutes for the entire process. Were we just unlucky the one time we went or were these vloggers lucky? I think they had a later check-in, but still, it was like no one was outside whatsoever.

Busyness during Halloween week cruise?
Lexster replied to Lexster's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Interesting. Like I said, doesn't really matter either way, but good to know! Were there themed events like costume parties or anything outside the decorations? -
Hey all, booked on Icon during Halloween week. I'm just curious, not that it matters either way, but anyone know how generally busy is that week as far as being kid-heavy? Is that a holiday lots of people cruise on like other holidays such as Christmas or Labor Day? Just wondering since it's not a federal holiday or anything so no one generally gets it off by default from work or school.

WTF. It's 54.99 on sale for mine! It's normally 80 freaking dollars. Utter rip-off.

It's definitely subjective. I generally enjoy the food all over the ship. I think there have only been a couple of times where I had to complain about how bad something was and they replaced it no problem in the MDR. My last cruise was last year May. I'm going on Icon in October, so I suppose I'll see if it's true that the quality has gone down since then. I will say I HATE the new menus in the MDR, but that doesn't really have to do with the quality, more so there's usually only one or two things on the menu I am interested in now.

Does Icon have a concierge/suite lounge?
Lexster replied to JoeFan's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
The Icon has an entire Suite Neighborhood. There's the Grove and also mention of a Suite Lounge on the RC page about it. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/cruise-activities/suite-neighborhood-icon -

Insane Discourse about the World Cruise
Lexster replied to Lexster's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Well, that's good. Personally, I don't think I could handle 9 months on a cruise ship, let alone one of the smaller ones like Serenade, but nothing I've seen complaints about are, like...novel. It's just people who don't know that's how things are.
