1) Chair hogs, obviously.
2) Financial penalties for parents who put their non-potty trained pooping kids in a pool.
3) wow bands for free
4) Free internet
5) Transparent pricing with Grats incl.
6) more food later.
7) more bar venues on the promanade.
8 bring back the cigar lounges
9) get rid of boarding times, they don't matter anyway.
I am sure I will think of more.
 

So I was at my door when security showed up at the room across the hall from me. I heard security say someone reported them for smoking on the balcony so they monitored them with video and caught them doing it and have video evidence. They then asked if they could come in. I obviously wasn't privy to the rest of the conversation but I haven't seen them since.
So what is the penalty for something like this? Just curious.

Just got off Symphony with a 10, 13, and 15yr old. They all had a blast and had plenty to do 
The 15yr old was off in the teen club with many others the entire trip. We basically only saw him on port days 
The 13 yr old was in teen club or the pool and she spent probably 50% of her time with us the other half with ppl she met in the club 
My 10yr old was with us about 80-90% of the time. Mostly in pools, hot tubs, hanging out on the board walk etc. She went to adventure ocean several times and enjoyed it every time. My wife thought she wouldn't have fun in adventure ocean, but she really did. It made her feel independent being with other kids and away from Mom and dad 
Advice, get internet package to txt with your kids.
Don't try to plan too much, just go with the flow, they will find what they like. 
Don't poop in the pools... Apparently it's a thing on Icon, let's not make it a thing on Utopia.

We have several times brought a few WJ items in Ziploc bags off ship. Doughnuts, cookies for the kids etc. don't think you're supposed to, but when traveling with you kids you do what you have to do. Now, your talking about taking off a full picnic lunch, that may get someone's attention, or not. I would stay away from fruits and veggies as they are most likely to contain bugs of some sort. I would think breads, cookies and the like are ok. Don't try to bring left overs back on though.

It came out just like on the ship.

 

People loved the smell of my black raspberry pipe tobacco on symphony... Just saying. 
Got plenty of comments/compliments from non smokers walking by. 😎

I can tell you here on symphony they have removed people's belongings from some chairs that were being hogged. That being said it is few and far between. Still plenty of hogging going on. 

Mainly Finest Call these days, AFAIK.
Your wife has good taste.

I just cruised with 3 kids and ended up buying the internet package (1 person 4 devices). The app chat wasn't good IMO. Missed messages no notifications etc... it just wasn't reliable. Though I didn't want to pay almost $600 for internet, I am glad I did. It was very helpful keeping tabs on the kids.

Thanks for that... Yup all signed up for shows, I will definitely add laser tag once onboard... I wasn't even considering it, but now I am. I can't wait, and neither can my kids.
Thanks for the play by play, I enjoyed reading all 7 pages of it 

Yes it was posted in another thread.... The guy brought it to Coco Cay and was drinking out of it.
 

Someone said Aruba was the proposal king of the Caribbean. Well this happened after our day in Curaçao. We had dinner at 150 Central Park. So I’d say this cruise was a home run 

I go on May 31st!  My first cruise!

It will be... My previous Royal cruise was 19 yrs ago on Voyager.  This ship was awesome!
 

Just wish Royal would do the same thing, or worse, to the lounge chair hogs by the pools! 😎

Contact RC, they will hook you up.

Ok, day 5 and probably 35-40 cocktails in and I would NOT say the drinks are undrinkable. I have no issues with the quality or flavor of any of these drinks I have had other than 1. And that one was just that I tried a drink I have never had before at my bartenders recommendation.... A BMW. Not knowing what was in it, I said sure why not. Well after already having had 6 rum drinks I did not need this concoction. A lot of Bailey's, some Malibu and Jameson's whiskey..... Ugh, that Bailey's just sat in my stomach and curdled.
But anyway, so far strawberry, Mango, pineapple have all tasted really good. Of course taste is subjective and people who like sunsational might disagree with me. 

I am on SY right now, had an 1130 checkin time this past Saturday. Was at the terminal at 1015, went straight in and sat in a holding pen for about 30 mins. Was on ship by 1100-1115.
