My friends had $200 of OBC on their reservation.  One used $100 to prebook something in cruise planner.  When they boarded Oasis the remaining $100 was split equally between the 2 people.  Each had their own credit card on file for the reservation. 

When it has been my husband and I booked in a cabin with one credit card it's just one bill and the OBC is applied to all purchases/gratuities until it runs out.

Yes and no, the onboard credit could be attached to a person or the entire reservation. If the two people on the booking don't share a spending account, it will only be able to be used by the main person on the reservation. You can just use the main person's seapass until it is gone. 

Thank you both!

Hi! I was wondering how onboard credits work. My husband and I are in a stateroom together, would we both be able to use the credit before having to use our credit cards? Thank you!

Best thing to do is google ship name and deck plans!  this will show you where the cabin is on the deck you are looking at..  hope this helps!

 

Thank you! I have vastly looked all over the internet for answers but one thing the deck plans can’t tell you is what the grey areas are. Also I find it helpful hearing other peoples experiences if they have stayed in a room near there. I have no reference for what it is like on A cruise so I am overthinking everything until I am crazy

A little more aft and you will be closer to the rear elevators which take you to the Windjammer and Main Dining  Room, which is convenient if you don’t like to walk a lot.

you can use Central Park as a cut through, pretty walk, instead of dreary hallways.

I have stayed on Oasis (same class ship) in the aft balcony and boardwalk balcony and never had noise issues worth noting. 

otherwise your cabin selection is 1/2 way to each elevator which means walking hallways.
 

There were no rooms closer to the elevators left. I was just hoping where that cabin is across from the grey area isn’t something that will be noisy

One should not be shocked to see that Royal Caribbean has deck plans right on their own website! 

Go to RoyalCaribbean.com - choose "ships", then the ship you are looking at, and then scroll down to "deck plans".  I also use cruisedeckplans.com when I'm looking for photos and videos.

I have seen all of the deck plans, but I have never been on a cruise so I have no idea in real life what is the best place to be. It looks like it might be a ways down the hall, but also it shows grey areas without any explanation. I have no idea what the grey area is in between chops grill and park cafe. I really just was interested to hear if anyone has seen first hand how the rooms are situated and if it is in a noisy area. Thank you for the link!

Hello! I am going on Allure of the Seas and I am unsure as to what deck is best for a balcony. I was looking at deck 7, 8, or 12. I didn’t know if room 8224 is too far from elevators. I was also looking at 12570, but I didn’t know if the sound from the elevators is an issue. Please let me know! This is my first cruise. Thank you!
