    WoodsTravels got a reaction from rjweber3 in Seattle hotel suggestions   
    Good Morning Fellow Cruisers!!! This may have been asked before and I do so apologize. Hubby and I would like suggestions for safe Seattle Hotels that you have stayed in. I hear Seattle can be rough and we want to spend the night before our trip. We also want to be safe. Any suggestions from those who have recently stayed in Seattle will be greatly appreciated. Thank you and Happy Cruising!!!!

    Not anti children-I'm Pro Education...keep them in school!...LOL but seriously:
    On my last cruise Royal actually suspended an extremely drunk passengers UBP for 24 hours.

    Hmmm my biggest one is people who don't read:
    Stop putting your water bottles on the lemonade, water, tea dispensers: there is a sign telling you not to.
    Stop letting your children run amok in places they shouldn't be i.e., the casino, solarium, etc.
    The ship is not your personal daycare, make your children behave.
    People who think "the wash your hands" signs are suggestions.
    Lastly people who get upset over not being able to do something: i.e., not get in the DL, SL, sitting in spaced off the Key, D+, Pinnacle or suite seats. Just the overall lack of awareness and entitlement.

    Never an issue for us being near the elevators and because we like the convenience and position on the ship the next three are booked near elevators.

    WoodsTravels got a reaction from asquared17 in Paying off early a bad idea?   
    I was going to do the same thing but I got great advice from my TA. She said you should never pay it off early. Wait until a few days before pay off date. Heaven forbid something happens and you cannot go on your cruise, it is easier to get refunds of smaller amounts than waiting for the whole amount.

    Welcome to RCL's new math.  Some of us have been bitten by RCL's new math.  What happens is RCL will raise the price of something and then offer a discount.  Several times, when I check the price of something on SALE, I find that I already have it at the reduce price or lower.  So my advice is to book early and often.  LOL!  As long as you have not paid in full, you can take advance of repricing your cruise.  For shore excursions and other extras, you can book, cancel, and rebook as often as you want.  But just do the math to see if it is really cheaper.  The only negative to rebooking the extras - your CC credit may take a month to show up. Have fun on your cruise.

    Then you can certainly reprice. I think I have done that on every single cruise I have even been on. It's absolutely no hassle with a TA.

    I did a mock booking. Choose the same cruise, same destination and same cabin. Today my booking was $600 cheaper than what I paid a few days ago. Including taxes and extras.

    Good morning fellow cruisers! I have a quick question and I apologize if it has been asked before but I'm still new to Royal. I booked my cruise a few days ago for 2024 and today Royal is offering the Cruise with an extra $550 off. My question is, am I entitled to these extra savings or do I not get them since I already booked my trip? Thank you!!! Happy Cruising!!!

    You can reprice, but your current price likely already includes a discount that may be equal to or more than the current offer.  You need to price the entire thing out for the same cabin grade and see.
    This is where a good TA can help you, they do all of this for you.

    I feel your pain.
    We did the waiting game for 2023 Europe itineraries last year, and will be doing the same this year for the '24/'25 sailings....although a "too good to pass up" Alaska sailing my entice us to go there instead.
