Buyer Beware (onboard Jewelry)
tjcruisers replied to CGVirginia's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
My wife has purchased jewelry a few times. My condition to her was if she wants something expensive, we'll buy it at the jewelry store near our house that has been in business for 70 years. If she wants something on the ship or island only spend money your willing to lose -
Never got an express boarding, however on our last 2 cruise from the time we got through security until walking up the ramp to the ship was only a few minutes. That's express enough for me

Share Holder benefit. Stock statement not accepted
tjcruisers replied to KevinJ's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
did it a month ago, had no issues. Usually submit a scanned pdf of our monthly statement. I usually go through email here [email protected] Maybe ask there and see if they provide a better answer -
Balcony Chairs Zip-tied to Recline Only
tjcruisers replied to RCDM-123's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
We noticed it on our cruise, thought it was something the previous guest did, guess not -
Symphony’s direction upon leaving bayone today.
tjcruisers replied to Leroyr55's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Just got off the Symphony today. They are repositioning the ship to Miami. Crew only on the trip. They were pretty excited, waiter was saying they got use of the whole ship. Captain probably did it for crew appreciation -
Pros & Cons of Booking 1 vs. 2 rooms for a Family of 4?
tjcruisers replied to dcnole's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Can’t really think of any cons. For pros on 2 rooms, as mentioned the extra bathroom and space. Also find that the AC recovers the room temp quicker with less people -
Royal Caribbean did me wrong!!
tjcruisers replied to Curtis Lewis's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
We're on that cruise. The op had no travel insurance, but even with travel insurance wouldn't have helped unless it was cancel for any reason. Maybe the op should answer why should Royal eat the cost? This late they won't be able to resell the room. My understanding the on any given cruise there are numerous people who end up not being able to make it, should Royal eat those costs as well? Start doing that and they wouldn't be in business that long. Also as some have said, if you have an 18 year old business with 30 employees, there should somebody there who can take over for a week in these situations. -
Is the Haitian Visa Required to go to Labadee?
tjcruisers replied to ElCubi's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I'd say if Haiti says you need one (looked at their website for a tourist visa), then it would be in your best interest to get one, otherwise run the risk of not being allowed on the ship. Better to be safe then sorry. Royal probably won't find out until they submit the manifest -
Not unreasonable, everybody on the ship is trying to do the same thing. On our cruise this weekend even though my wife was sitting beside me and doing it at the same time, I go 10:30, she got 11 (just because I was a second quicker getting to the screen). Other factors could play in the times are in relation to when the ship get into port that day and disembarks passengers. One cruise we were on they had to do a coast guard inspection (that pushed everything back a few hours)

What you can and can’t bring on a ship.
tjcruisers replied to Matt York's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I would imagine your not the first, can't see them taking it. -
My wife mentioned this last night, not sure where she seen though
-
Never tried to order a whole one. However the last 2 cruises they could keep up with what they needed for the counter, let along making whole ones for people

That’s the basic one. https://beavertails.com/products/

That could be it, forgot about that (disabled that on work computers as it became extremely annoying when developing software). Could be what the op meant. Might not necessarily be RCL, but if they reused the same password for many different systems (banking, amazon, etc) something might have been breached elsewhere. If that's the case then I would go through each place and change the password and as you mention all being unique
-
What do you mean you got message from google? and they told you to change your RCL password? That seems fishy. Wouldn't be clicking on any links in the email.
-
That would definitely cause some stress if you didn't know. I've heard of them doing this a few times now. This thread might be a good PSA for those ever going out of Bayonne in the future, that this might happen
-
Ours have always shown up pretty quick, usually within a few days of getting home

For the big production pieces you'd have to go on the bigger ships. It's been a while since I've been on Radiance class ship. From what I remember one night had a Billy Joel cover band, a couple nights comedy, other nights were in house shows (in house version of grease). Everything might not be on a the app well (i.e. love and marriage show, quest), you have to get those from the cruise compass. Here a recently posted crusie compass for Serenade, that will give you more info https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/cruise-compasses/serenade-of-the-seas/fri-09132024-0000

Symphony dinner timing help...
tjcruisers replied to Southern Dan's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Were on the Symphony end of Oct. Wife and kid are going to see hairspray, kind of strange time slots they had. Two of the shows they sandwiched midpoint between the early and late dining (which doesn't really benefit either dining time, rushing between the theatre and the mdr). -
The compensation offered is more than fair, reality is they don't have to offer any. Royal up is kind of like a guaranteed room, your gonna end up where you end up, possibly in a room nobody wants

Longshoremen work stoppage looming?
tjcruisers replied to Sealegs's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
As an outsider looking in, even if there is a strike, I can't see it being long. You guys have an election coming up. Generally I don't see any government allowing this type of strike to last long and impacting the economy (especially when going into an election).
