There's really no cons. There are a handful of things on board the app makes it more convenient to do, but there's nothing you can't do without it.

Thank you for the reply

Do all parties in the same cabin need to download the app or can we just have one person use it?

What are the pros and cons of having only one person using the app?

That is definitely helpful. For some reason I was being really stupid and thought deck 1 was at the top 

Thank you

We have a little one (sub 2) and are planning to go to on Spectrum shortly. I have been confused by these H2O, splashaway zones on board, as in I can't seem to find either of these on the ship deck plan.

Are there swimming-diaper-safe water zones for young ones on the Spectrum?

Thank you in advance

Out of curiosity in this circumstance would this mean you would get the Crown and Anchor points only for the nights that you actually sailed? Or would it be for the nights you booked since you already started the cruise? I'm assuming it's the latter but just curious to know.

Your partner can request the OBC as long as they are on the booking.

Thank you very much for the information.

I am not particularly bright so please can someone clarify this for me?

"Any shareholder with an eligible reservation holding a minimum of 100 RCL (NYSE: RCL) shares at time of sailing."

I am not a shareholder, but my partner is. However, I do all our bookings, so the booking is in my name. My partner's name is on the reservation   

Are we still eligible for the On Board Credit or does my partner need to be one doing the bookings?

Thank you!

With your replies, I think selling the child is the best option 

No seriously, I followed your advice and contacted them. They offered (and we accepted) to transfer the deposit to another cruise that we're booked on.

Thank you again. Appreciate your advice for a RCL newbie. 

Hi everyone. I'm new here and new to Royal Caribbean and was hoping some gurus here to give me some advice.

We are expecting a child in October, with our cruise in December. This means the baby wouldn't be able to travel (as younger than 6 months). And we don't feel comfortable to leave the new born with someone else.

We had previously already paid a smallish deposit for Spectrum, but because it is after September 30, it is not eligible for a cruise with confidence cruise credit. 

I've been told we will get charged a cancellation fee of $100 per person. Is this the only option available to us? It's not that we don't want to travel in the future, it's just we can't travel on those dates. 

Thank you!
