    SPS got a reaction from WAAAYTOOO in No sales on spa?   
    I've noticed that the Spa discounts appear less often than on other items in the Cruise Planner. (I always book a Day 1 massage for my wife in the planner.)
    I think one major driver of this is that the Spa is actually run by a third party company, OneSpaWorld, not Royal Caribbean.
    That is not to say discounts won't become available, they just seem to appear less often than items like Drinks, Excursions, etc.
    One good way to get a lower price on spa services is to book them for port days instead of sea days. The spa quite often has lower prices while the ship is in a port of call when/where demand is lower.

    Most likely, but, judging from the prices I've seen in the Cruise Planner the past few months, it's gonna depend on your own personal definition of "SALE".

    SPS got a reaction from JennyB in Urgent: need OA cruise director's email address   
    Is email really going to be the easiest/most effective/most expedient way to contact the Cruise Director for what you are dictating is an Emergency?
    The CD probably wouldn't be checking email until late into the evening (if even then) just due to a CD's usual daily schedule and workload alone.
    You should probably contact Guest Services either in person or on your stateroom telephone.

    I'd love to visit there, but, does RC have a ship that can even dock there now?
    Empress and Majesty are no longer in the fleet and, to my knowledge, they were the only ships able to port there before travel restrictions to Cuba were reinstated.

    SPS reacted to Lovetocruise2002 in Air2Sea   
    I think it depends on the airline. My experience with Air2Sea is that with Delta, you are able to pick seats right after you get off the phone with Air2Sea. Air Canada on the other hand would not allow me to because the "tickets" are not considered "ticketed" until after final payment. After I called AC myself, I was able to convince them to let me pick seats. So a bit more trouble than Delta. No clue about the other airlines because I usually only fly Delta.

    Virgin had big plans for Scarlet Lady to go to Cuba.  The assumption is Radiance class could be made to work.  Moot point though.

    SPS got a reaction from WAAAYTOOO in Alaska cruises - drinks onboard   
    If you're sailing on Quantum or Ovation to Alaska, Café Two70 has a nice little "high-octane" coffee menu that's included in the DBP!
    Even when sailing on a ship with a Café Latte-tudes instead, we've gotten "Syrup" in our coffees (a la Buffy the Elf!) there or even ordered a shot of something at another bar to add to it. (Bailey's, Rum Chata, Whiskey etc.)

    SPS got a reaction from Kellyrich in Earliest check-in??   
    FYI: This might be the earliest check-in time available RIGHT NOW. When I checked us in on the app just after midnight for our Odyssey cruise, noon was the earliest time available. A few days later, 11:00 became available on the app. (Good news is you can update to another time!)
    I had thought for sure we would be in the earliest group to board. To my surprise, other passengers had 10:00 & 10:30 check-in times when we arrived on embarkation day!

    Absolutely.
    In January, our hotel shuttle dropped us off at the terminal at about 10:15 am for an 11:00 check-in time (Port Everglades) and the porters were immediately available and gathered everyone's luggage.
