It could be an IT thing the RC website is experiencing. Wait a few hours and try again or call the RC customer support number.

I looked at the Talent Submission Form in the "Submit Talent Info" section. I didn't see "arm pit farting" as a talent they are looking for anywhere. So I closed the page somewhat disappointed.

Hmmm, I kinda thought there would be enough lifeboat space for the ships max capacity, including crew. Didn't they learn something from the Titanic?

If you booked through a travel agent they can link everyone together under your reservation number since you have all the res. numbers. If you didn't go through a travel agent, call RC customer service and they can handle it for you.

I think it varies depending on the ship. You may get a reduced deposit or on board credit or discount if that is what is being offered. The one time we did an on board booking we got the reduced deposit and choice of of a really great stateroom, an aft cabin with a large balcony. Haven't had that luck since!

Yummoh!

In my opinion, the complimentary OJ is absolutely horrid tasting. You're better off bringing a jar of Tang along and mixing your own!

Jason, You have some really good ones in your post. I like the first one - wipe out bar when sailing out of port. Will have to do that next year. Rjac

Women.......!

We did the 11 Night Ultimate Caribbean & Panama Cruise on the Jewel of the Seas in 2010. The trip induced Cartegena, the Panama Canal, Costa Rica and a few other ports which I can't remember. The Canal & Costa Rica were very interesting. Cartegena, not so much. Tons and tons of beggars ( many of whom were very handicapped), very pushing street vendors and not so clean. After seeing the movie "Jewel of the Nile", my wife insisted we see Cartegena, boy was she sorry! Needless to say we won't be going back there anytime soon! However, she did get a really nice gold and emerald ring for a very decent price. Whenever she wears the ring, I'll look at it and smile to which she'll says "don't even say it".

As I posted before, the RC tags worked great, didn't have an issue for the narrowness. Did not have the "ink transfer" problem at all. The top opening of the tag is firmly closed (zip closure) and is water tight. When I received them fro Amazon I played with one and used a dull letter opener is open it. No problem after that. Go for it, if you don't like them you can always return them to Amazon.

They swap out the kimonos for the bath robes.

Yes, perfectly, and they are reusable. I purchased some earlier this year for a cruise and will use them again. If you are flying into your port of departure, I would strongly recommend NOT putting them on your luggage before you fly. You never know if they get ripped off during the airport baggage handling process or not. Put them on after you claim your bags at the baggage claim area. That way you know, for sure, that your tags on on your bags. I would also recommend getting some extras as well as extra copies of the e-tag. Bring those with you in a carry on bag. Better safe than sorry.

Well, if you like rum, they do sell a local rum that you will not find on any of the other Caribbean Islands. It's called BBD and you can't miss it in the shopping area at the port. Got to try some!

Me too.......but I don't have a cool link like that.

Thanks Tiny. Were they in your stateroom or did you have to go to the guest relations desk?

So, does anyone here know how much time that is? And, is it the same for beer, wine, liquor, fancy drinks, etc.?

Best way to handle the time zone changes is to just stay on the ship, do not wear a watch and stay very close to your favorite bar!

So, we are now 147 days out from the second leg of our two week B2B next year on the Allure. The cruise planner for the first week was populated with all the "discounts", deals, excursions and entertainment at day 158. The second week (April 1st) cruise planner shows no deals, discounts nor entertainment and we are now 147 days out. I wonder what RC is doing? I know what they are NOT doing. By the way, waiting for the trip is KILLING ME!!!

So, just out of curiosity, what time are you doing your recon of the WJ? All of your photos of the WJ are so pristine, everything in place and no messes! Great job.

Amen to that!

I don't remember it on the Allure last year.

Someone is not TOO spoiled here.......

WOW!!!

Have you thought about getting two connecting rooms? Parents in one, the kids in the other. Of course, that depends on the ages of your children, but, something to consider.
