I'd love to see them sail to Costa Maya as a regular stop, we loved it when we stopped there several years ago.

Happy news - We got the Ben & Jerry's "Sweet" again next year!

Yeah, especially with DL access :P . I'd rather be in the DL with the wall of windows anyways! -

I had no idea you got CL access. I would definitely consider it for a short cruise! Do you get double points or just the CL access? -

Changes to Future Cruise Booking OBC
Auburn14 replied to PASiggy's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
I just read on another board that a representative expressed that they will allow the passenger to change the reservation twice and receive the respective on board booking OBC. Changes after that point will knock the onboard credit value down to the open booking values. I think this may be a case of nobody at Royal Caribbean knowing what the policy is (if there is one yet!), so we all get a different answer. -
Tell us about your next RCI cruise
Auburn14 replied to KeithnRita's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
We're heading back to the Caribbean on Allure in May. Probably our 9th time on the Western route, but we tried Oasis in December and loved it, so we had to book Allure! -
We stay at the Marriott Harbor Beach whenever possible, whether its before or after a cruise or weekend in Fort Lauderdale. It can be expensive, but the resort is gorgeous... paradise. You can walk about 10 minutes down the beach and watch the ships sail from the rocky area in front of the condo complexes. It's about 5 minutes drive from the pier. Another place that we like and can occasionally snag a deal is the Westin Beach Resort. Its a little farther down Las Olas. We've also had good experiences with the Embassy Suites if we have an afternoon arrival and just need a place to sleep and shower pre-cruise. It's right there by the port.

Changes to Future Cruise Booking OBC
Auburn14 replied to PASiggy's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
Adding on to this, when booking a sailing a year out or longer onboard, it's inevitable that we occasionally have to move the date up or back a week, depending on our schedules. Under the new policy, it appears the OBC would be diminished to the open booking amount if the ship or sail date is changed. -

Changes to Future Cruise Booking OBC
Auburn14 replied to PASiggy's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
I'm pretty upset about this change. I read about it on the CC message boards. I was planning on buying a few more on the Allure in May, but now its just not even worth the time and effort. We generally take one long and one short cruise per year, so no OBC for the short cruises is a bummer, but a measly $25 for a 6-9 night cruise is laughable. I'll gladly join in on the emailing. I saw a few posts about it on their Facebook page today, I don't know whether or not that was anybody here. -
Bahamas in early April - how cold is the water?
Auburn14 replied to bcarney's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
We swam in CocoCay in early April a few years back and it was like Matt said, fine once you got used to it. It can probably vary though, since the weather can vary pretty drastically in the Bahamas in February and March. -
Hey! I've been reading this blog for months and I'm excited to be a member. We are from Alabama and our upcoming cruise on the Allure will be our 15th with Royal Caribbean. I look forward to getting to know everybody better and keeping up on the latest news. :)
