Im not onboard, the ship got delayed by 1 day, just curious on how that would reflect on the app -
Wonder diverting to PR (11/25)

Cruise planner is not updating with this delay -
yeah, I tried to add the UDP (without paying the price), I noticed that they add some extra cost you mentioned above but it still way cheaper than the UDP i purchased from the original planner website, and the weird thing that the new planner (2) website doesn't mention anything related to my already purchased UDP from Planner (1) website as they sound completely different websites that each one doesn't know about the other.

Yes as the title says ... I'm sailing on Wonder on Nov, 27 (after a week now) and RC is playing with their planner website for black Friday deals, resulting in having a brand new planner website in addition to the regular normal one. Planner 1 (the regular): can be accessed by going to Royal Caribbean's website, press on top left menu icon, choose sign in ... after signing in, press on the same menu icon again and choose: Manage My Cruise option and then choose Cruise Planner sub-option, the final url is : https://secure.royalcaribbean.com/cruiseplanner/?bypass=true I can see my full order history with my purchases. Planner 2 (the new one): can be accessed by going to Royal Caribbean's website, sign in, press on the top right button that has my initials, then choose my cruise and press on Plan my cruise button, the final url is: https://www.royalcaribbean.com/account/cruise-planner?bookingId=xxxx&shipCode=WN&sailDate=20221127 [where xxxx is my booking id] when I open my order history in the new planner, it shows this message: You don’t have any orders yet After checkout is complete, your purchases will be listed here and when checking the deals on the new planner I found out that it has completely different prices than the ones in Planner 1 (much cheaper). However, the mobile app shows my past purchases normally. Did anyone face such weird thing ? I'm asking because I want to cancel my orders and purchase new ones as they are much cheaper.

I am a non-US and non-Canadian foreign visitor to the US, I have a multiple entry visitor US visa, is it enough to sail the 7-night cruise, the itinerary is: Orlando (Port Canaveral), Florida Perfect Day at CocoCay, Bahamas Nassau, Bahamas Falmouth, Jamaica Labadee, Haiti Orlando (Port Canaveral), Florida or should I obtain visa for each country listed above ?

I just finished switching my cruise to Wonder of the seas, 7 nights from Port Canaveral into some Caribbean destinations, I've paid no penalties, just the price difference, I told them that one of your colleagues told me that's not possible to switch cruise without a cancellation and re-booking, which's turned out to be the opposite ... now, returning back to main topic is Eating Maine Lobster under UDP in Wonder of The Sea free of charge ?

I figured out why there are only 8 restaurants show up on the mobile app, i am on a totally different ship, I'm a first time cruiser here, and I'm kind of lost among app and website features when I back did the reservation, anyway that got me to choose the right date for myself but the wrong ship, my ship is Freedom of the Seas, which's no more than a "bottom-glass boat" comparing to Wonder, in terms of everything, from entertainment, to pools to dining, etc .. so I called RRCL to ask for a sail change (to enjoy the cruise on Wonder), they told me that's not possible, the only possible thing to do is to cancel the reservation and get a refund of 75% of the total paid amount and then reserve Wonder of the seas cruise, I've carefully read their cancellation policy and turned out that the customer service rep was wrong, the policy says that I will be refunded 50% of the total cruise amount if the sail date is more than 62 days, which's unacceptable to lose half of what I paid.

can i get cruise compass for my upcoming cruise in next November ?

I have downloaded the app and checked the restaurants column under the dining section, they have only 8 restaurants listed in that section other than the MDR, which’s weird coz there are lots of restaurants not mentioned like: Wonderland, The Mason Jar and Hooked, my cruise is Wonder of the seas which have about 20 restaurants including the above. So does that mean the UDP doesn’t cover more than 8 specialty restaurants which are those listed in dining section in the app ? one more weird thing: I tried to hit the “Reserve Now” button in Chop’s Grille page and when I pick up a time slot, it shows me a price and my saved credit card to pay that cost if i want to reserve that restaurant, where it should be free considering the I have the UDP.

wow, I was really looking for a sample menu, thank you dude. However, by showing $21 beside the Maine Lobster meal, does that mean that if i order it, then I will be credited the $20 that's mentioned in the UDP description page which says: "For restaurants with a la carte pricing, you’ll receive a $20 food credit." resulting in $1 + 18% gratuity as a total charge ??
-
how do you know that Chops is not a la carte restaurant while Izumi is ? the UDP description page says the following: "For restaurants with a la carte pricing, you’ll receive a $20 food credit." and the following: "For ships with these venues, Teppanyaki/Izumi Hibachi is included, with a $10 surcharge, Chef's Table is included, with a $49.99 surcharge, and Dadong is included, with a $35 surcharge. These will be charged once onboard." so it's unreasonable that i will be charged $10 at Izumi's Hibachi while at the same time I'll be given a $20 credit to eat there (according to the statement above)
-
what's the point of dining at the MDR while I have UDP to dine at specialty restaurants which I guess is way better than the MDR. The description page for the UDP doesn't state that I have a certain amount of balance to not exceed at each specialty restaurant or a surcharge will be added to my account, except for this phrase: "For restaurants with a la carte pricing, you’ll receive a $20 food credit." The question is: how does someone know that an item like "Maine Lobster" (if it's on the menu at a specialty restaurant) is covered or not by the UDP ?

I have purchased the UDP package for my upcoming Miami-Bahamas (first ever) cruise in next November on Wonder Of The Seas, after reading the description on the UDP page on RCCL website it states that there may be some surcharges, I've read a lot in this forum and other forums (Cruise Critic) about different people stories regarding those surcharges, so decided not to do mistakes that may incur me extra costs over the UDP original cost. We don't drink Alcohol, we will not choose Hibachi option at Izumi, and we mainly look for Maine lobsters and steaks. can we eat Maine lobsters and steaks without being charged the surcharges ? if yes, where to eat them ? Thank you in advance.
