A fun idea! Only issue is I likely wouldn't be able to be on super long since I usually just check-in right before going to sleep. Google has a free conference system called Meet, doesn't even have a time limit.

My last cruise, it opened a few minutes after midnight.

I do a similar thing in an Excel spreadsheet for tracking info for the cruise.

Well, I have the rental car and mid-way hotel booked now. We're all set! Now just to wait ~50 more days!

Yep, far as I'm aware. Only other thing I can think of is their reservation number starts with 4 and mine starts with 7, so maybe it goes in number order.

Yeah, not sure, we both have balconies. We're only eight doors apart.

It does, though for some reason it's at the top, while my reservation is under it, which confused me.

Hey all, just wanted to check, I have a reservation linked with another booking. Will this allow me to pick a check-in time for both us and them when check-in opens?

Yeah, formal night is pretty relaxed still. Last cruise, I just wore some khakis and a button-up long sleeve shirt.

I could definitely see something like that. Only issue might be moving the drums around.

*sigh* At least they aren't getting rid of the Jazz altogether. If it moves to the Music Hall, that's better than nothing.

I too pack like three weeks early. I make sure I have all my extra accessories and things all in one place.

Honestly such BS. Oh, yeah, let's take away music to give way for MORE gambling. Great.

We're down to 61 days! That's two months! Getting pretty excited.

Yep, I checked those. Unfortunately, it's not much cheaper, especially since I'll only do non-stop flights. It's ultimately cheaper for us to rent a car that we'll have for a week and yet only use for maybe a total of two days than getting plane tickets for four people.

Yeah, might be. We fly out of CVG, but yeah two people one way was like $800. Plus I won't do layovers because I don't want to risk cancellations or delays.

We're driving back. 16 hours...but we couldn't justify paying the equivalent of another cruise to fly.

Wait WHAT? They're getting rid of the freaking jazz clubs?! Wow...good job, Royal...my favorite place on the ships. Eff me, I guess, let's go gambling!

Welcome! We've actually taken the....bold decision to drive 16 hours from Northern KY to Miami to avoid the insane cost of airline tickets right now. Coco Cay is definitely a blast. The beaches are nice and the huge pool is fun.

Awesome! My husband and I are treating this as our 9 year anniversary. Definitely getting excited. Starting to watch cruise videos constantly again.

II wouldn't wait to be in the ship. it's doable, but apparently not guaranteed that you can make the change. I'd contact your travel agent (if you have one) or maybe call Royal to change it beforehand if you want to move to Traditional.

Fair enough!

Yep, I appareciate there are options. I like traditional because I like having the same wait staff every night. Makes me feel special.

I'm Traditional, the early seating. We'll also be doing Chops and Wonderland.

Calories don't count on a cruise ship!
