Quantum had a 5-day sailing in May and it was so nice not having to fly or commit to a full week. Honestly, I’d love more options like that—where I can cruise without using more than 2–3 PTO days!

Has Royal ever considered offering 3–4 night sailings out of Seattle or Vancouver—and would you be onboard… literally? Something like a quick round-trip to Victoria, Vancouver, or even a couple of Alaska ports could be perfect for long weekend getaways. No flights needed, no 7-day commitment—just a relaxing escape close to home. I think it’d be a huge hit with locals and especially popular among casino lovers (we’ve got a lot of them up here!).

I vote for strolling the Freedom Trail! You’ll hit all the highlights—like the Granary Burying Ground, Paul Revere’s House, Old North Church, Faneuil Hall, and the Boston Common. And don’t miss popping into Beantown Pub for a lobster roll—you can eat across the street from where Sam Adams is buried!

Great price! Today it is $216.99 7n Star ((50% OFF) ROYAL BIRTHDAY BASH OFFER)

Was that 10,000 points playing cards? and $125,000 to get 25,000 points? WOW. I earned 15,500 = $77,500?? I spent about $200 and got a 3K+ hand pay in the first hour, and then just played on that and a total of $12K in hand pays (one for $7500) over 5 nights in rainy Alaska Took home $5k. If only all casino visits were that "free"

WOW, you must have had a much nicer Instant Reward too. My last cruise a few weeks ago was quite a more points, I wonder if my offer was from the prior cruise, which was lower. I've never seen such fabulous offers - just wish they were to some other destinations I'm happy with the Central Park balcony I've selected but more FP and all those additional perks would rock

What's Master's cruise?

CODE 25PWP0903

WOW, I just check and mine looks similar. I suspect you'll have the same VIP offer I got in email today

Not sure if I should be flattered or worried that I've been invited This will be my first "event" on any cruise - what's it like?

Hi Everyone, I’m trying to find out if there’s an option to have both makeup and hair done before a professional photo session on my upcoming cruise. I see plenty of info about the onboard photography services and fancy hair, but I can’t seem to find anything about makeup services. Any suggestions or how I could arrange one? Thanks!

EDIT: I did the upgrade it was $8.00 additional! @WAAAYTOOO and @smokeybandit Thank you for the encouragement! Sounds like nothing to bother with, besides, I’m a covered pool solarium girl anyway! I’ll check out the next upgrade prices. One day, I’ll have a view of the pool - or at least something to watch other than just water.

You always have the best info, thanks for breaking it down! Does this include private outdoor space on Quantum, or just access to the lounge and restaurant? Yesterday, the upgrade from JS to Sky JS was only $362 with tax solo on my 5-night! A Sky Grand Suite was just $50 more, but that would feel like excessive levels of treating myself... and I wouldn’t want to be that person.

For this scenario, Is it better to gamble in March to boost your current status and secure future offers, or wait until April to start fresh with the new earning cycle?

Other cruise line casinos will match your Casino Royale offer. Last year I had 9K+ and sent it to the other lines. Before Royal I was NCL only, but with these offers I’m going to try them all and figure out which line to be loyal to based on destination options that are not Caribbean or Bahamas. Princess: Offered up to 14 nights in a Mini-Suite (no Asia options) I have the UK scheduled next summer Holland America: A long list of cruises to choose from. I’m going for 10 days to New England and Canada Celebrity: Says to call to discuss options. MSC: Balcony cabin and upgraded to Yacht Club for $2200 (per cabin, not pp) on Meraviglia. BONUS: I hit a couple of small hand pays with no taxes They also have a long list of 25K slot tournament comps. If I’m going to gamble enough to "pay" for a cruise might as well do it somewhere I wish to see Maybe when I get older I'll move to Florida I do love the idea of gambling for fun while earning enough free cruises to practically live on the water on an RC mega ship! Sounds like it's a win-win for living expenses mixed with gambling

I've never sailed twice with the same cruise line in the same earnings period and have a question. If I have 7,000 points now, and sail again and earn 3,000 points, will my next certificate be for the 9,000-point range? Having limited time off, as far as casino comps, I'd like to understand why I want to sail with the same line multiple times in the same year. TY.

If this is helpful and permitted here, I downloaded the attached PDF with links from the QR code during my time on Utopia on 11/22/24. It’s a list of links to the cruises available for instant reward certificates by points, and I’ve attached it for reference. (Should it go somewhere else, or is it already posted elsewhere? ) Or, without the PDF, the link for 9,000 points is below. You can adjust the offer code at the end of the URL to access all point levels. = https://www.royalcaribbean.com/content/dam/royal/resources/pdf/casino/offers/2411A02A..pdf InstantRewardNov2024..pdf

Outstanding! Thank you! Utopia in two days

Hello, if earned, did you receive and instant reward cert for each leg of your B2B2B? I am on a B2B with Royal and have been wondering if I might earn two - someone said Princess only gives it for the second leg. TY.

Ash, Thank you. I think I'll try Icon or other Oasis These dates fit right in front of my UK cruise, and who wants to fly twice across country.

What happens on the first cruise that makes it worth going as far as events? I have a mess and wondering if I should stay on this cruise and work it out or go another time? I was 7/22&7/26 and now I am 7/19&7/26 they won't honor the expired cert and move the b2b 7/26 to 7/22 or move me back (Not asking about the cert, just events) TY

I checked and the B2B I wanted was not on the list and I was excited. No eligible when I tried on RC. I'll try turning it off and back on and see if that fixes it

Wow, GTK. Matt was explaining some of this the other day and it's making more sense. I've never had more than an inside offered. You are a wealth of knowledge

Why do they put Icon on the list if not eligible? Most of page 3. This is the list of NOT available, unlike this list of cruises out the door that looks like this Actually I like this better!

Yes that helps very much. That was too much, I'd never counted points, NCL and Carnival just hand them out for interiors. Now I know 2500 is enough and I'm happy with a promenade interior
