I hope not. People including children still have to walk through the area. Dining on one side and Studio B, theater, etc. on the other. The art people would prefer the traffic not decrease. The bar is there too.

I looked in Social100 and everything's pretty much cleared out and they were making a lot of noise doing construction.
-
Interesting, I'm on the Wonder. Social100 is currently closed (technically relocated). There is nothing going on in the lounge as far as I can tell. I don't understand the part about "cocktail hour drinks." Doesn’t sound any different from the way it is now. Doesn’t this mean people don't get food when the lounge is closed?

Mine is a balcony. My offers have been junior suites. I was going to pass but I guess I'll check it out for the first time. No email yet.

I purchased UDP on my Anthem cruise for Aug 2025 last week. I looked in the app and it shows everything has a price. I went as far as it asking for payment. Am I missing something?

Are you saying the two of you got the same annual cruise offer and you combined them for one Junior Suite? I have a bunch of regular offers, I take it I can't use those to combine with my annual cruise which says balcony and get a Junior Suite going solo.
-
This is my first year. I'm Signature and the trade in value is only $1000 (balconies only).The sailings are a disappointment because I was getting offers for some Junior Suites. I'm guessing it's because my play went beyond Signature but wasn't enough for Masters. I see the Masters list has Grand Suites. Is this normal or are things worse than previous years? Also, is there anything special with the sailings on the list? OBC? Freeplay? Gifts? Special events?

20% gift card promo cancelled early!
mistertomatohead replied to pat8635's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I was confused about how the discount was supposed to show up. I almost went through to the end until I thought about checking this board first. They should've sent out another email or put something up on the webpage. It seems like they might have made a mistake with the maximum discount. $1000 is pretty crazy. Quantities limited. Offer subject to change or withdraw without notice. Okay. You CYA with the "without notice" but you don't actually do it that way. It's bad customer service! -

mistertomatohead replied to Mark Cordle's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Huh? What does this even mean? It's literally in the name. I'm new to cruising and I like hearing about these issues especially after the shutdown because everything seems to be different. The experience seems very different. The cruise lines seem to treat their guests very differently. I'll leave it at that. People can decide if it's better or worse. I also don't buy the they all do it argument. Some do it better. It's all in the details. Personally, if a cruise line did this to me I'd be pretty mad. I'd give another cruise line my business (and the chance to do the same to me again.) But that's how it goes these days. -
Man Over Board - Quantum - Brisbane to Hawaii

Is that confirmed? Sounds like a rumor at this point. People have medical issues on cruises all the time. -

Any Talk About Mexico Cancelations?
mistertomatohead replied to Crusinjunky's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Mexico is not dangerous?!? Any place can be dangerous. It depends where you go, when, what you're doing, who you're with, luck, etc. Most tourist areas are relatively safe. Most of the time you are there during the day with lots of other tourists. They protect those tourist areas with armed security or paramilitary police if necessary. You have to be aware of your surroundings everywhere and use common sense. For example, don't be alone, drunk, in some sketchy place late at night buying "adult candy" or "party favors." For what it's worth, I have an NCL cruise coming next week that goes to Ensenada, Cabo, Puerto Vallarta, and Mazatlán. It's proceeding as planned. I've been on a couple of cruises to Mexico while there were bad "news" reported. The cruise lines did not change their plans or even referenced the danger. It doesn't mean something bad can happen but personally I never worried. That's just me of course. Someone mentioned France, have you been watching the news? Avoid those particular areas. Haha. -

-
Is it just a cleaning or do they set the room for sleeping? You know, turn down service. Chocolates, night light and set up the bunk/sofa beds. Or has this never been a Royal thing? EDIT: sounds like they will still do this. Then the question is do you want to make them visit you twice if you need the sleep setup? Then there's the tipping for this if they do visit twice since it's not the norm but then the number of the people in the cabin is already figured into the gratuities. Oh whatever, I'll just go with the flow. Do whatever you want Royal!
-
If the rules allow it, do you need a parent's permission? I'm guessing no. Can a parent not allow it? Seems pretty hard to enforce. I guess if there's a concern, they shouldn't be on that cruise. They could make everyone from 18-20 wear bracelets. One color for drinker, one for non-drinker. Keycard indicates if you're 18-20 so servers know to check the bracelet. Sounds complicated but it doesn't seem like OP chimed in on the responses. They specifically mentioned parent's permission. Maybe they're under 21..heh. On another note, everything's fine until someone is clearly drunk. What then? Oh, they're just seasick.

Face masks when embarking/disembarking?
mistertomatohead replied to SJay's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
It’s not just Covid. I got the cough whatever thing going around in December and now I’m good for 30 total cruise days after that. I guess I’ve built up some immunity. I saw people wearing masks on those cruises. I’m not sure if they’re sick or trying not to get sick. Doesn’t really matter at this point. -
How to get OBC as a stock holder?
mistertomatohead replied to Bowen's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
They do not ask for proof at the time of the sailing so it’s the honor system for this part. Yes, you can buy and just sell immediately but that isn’t the point of this benefit. They want you to be a long term investor.
