    TakeMeSomewhere got a reaction from WAAAYTOOO in 2024 Deployment Schedule   
    We were looking very closely at these two sailings and decided to go with AD for 12-27-24 over New Years. Just a little more price wise, two extra days, and the better itinerary of the two.

    I appreciate this is a topic that is very important to you.  I'd be interested to see if any cruise line, or airline, handles this differently for international travel.  
    A cruise ship always involves international travel, at least for the mass market cruise lines.  The name has to match government ID and that is the name that is the basis of the passenger manifest.  The passenger manifest is submitted to every country visited on the cruise.  The passenger manifest is the basis of immigration processing at each stop on a cruise.
    The problem with international travel (that by definition involves other countries) is that the international community isn't as quick to evolve beyond old ways.  
    Royal Caribbean has no choice but to follow the name on the ID that will be used for travel because that is the name that becomes the entry for a guest on the passenger manifest.  Unlike a local business in a country that more quickly adapt, when international travel is involved it isn't as easy, yet.

    It really must have been a bad cruise as the post is all underlined. 😉
    Hopefully OP returns so they can fill in the blanks as to why it was so bad!

    If they wanted to do that, they could simply add something like the word "voucher" next to the $0.00 in the list of orders in the "Account" section of the app.

    Thank you very much @Neesaand @KristiZ! @NeesaI agree completely about the Chops Holiday menu. On Cruise Planner the sample Holiday menu looked the exact same if not less options than the regular menu. Guests are being charged the $99 pp for the bottle of champagne. At least the Giovanni's sample Holiday menu had some new options just for the Holiday meal. I still don't plan on spending $95 pp for it though.

    If I recall correctly we dined at Chops on the Odyssey last Christmas and they had a special Holiday menu. It actually had less on it then a regular dinner at Chops menu. 
    We were unimpressed and felt the experience was better in CK on Thanksgiving. If they give you a reservation with the UDP they will probably serve you off the regular menu, which I felt was much better then our over priced limited selections but add a glass of champagne for the price. 
    I am sorry I didn't answer your question but I wanted to share our experience last 12/25. 
    We are on the Serenade for Thanksgiving this year and are just going to visit the MDR that evening. For me personally, because my family won't go near Izumi there are not enough restaurants to justify the UDP for us.  Not sure if I am doing a live blog or not but any questions you have for me being on the ship in 57 days I'll do my best to answer for you. Enjoy your Holiday sailing!

    We ran into a situation where the specialty restaurant we wanted was completely booked the first two nights. We were able to use our BOGO on the third night, but the staff pre-charged our account on the first night. That's how they handle exceptions, since the ability to charge a BOGO disappears from their system after the second night. 
    Just go talk to the host where you want to dine and they work it out for you.
