Mine showed up on my app yesterday for a cruise leaving on August 18th.  I thought I would answer the questions.  I mistakenly answered the third question that I was more than 26 weeks pregnant!  I hit the submit button and have been advised I can't sail.  Wow, I am a 73 year old male and am surely not pregnant.  Unfortunately you cannot edit your answer once submitted.  RCCL claims they can't edit or change information in the app.  I only need to show up at check in and fill out the written health questions.  Very aggravating, but glad I'm not really pregnant!

Do i have to pay $35 for a snorkel excursion at Coco Cay, or can I just bring my own snorkel/mask/fins and go have fun on my own?

I have reached out to royal and they are saying that they plan to run at reduced speeds until next year's dry dock (2020).

I was just on this ship in November 2018. At the time, the guitar player/singer at the Pub was very entertaining.  All the production shows were terrific as well.   There were a lot more spanish speaking folks on the cruise than I normally see, but this is due to being based out of P.R.   The crowd was great!

Just wanted to follow up my question with my actual experience with disembarking Freedom of the Seas this past Sunday in San Juan.   We chose early departure and went to the deck 4 dining room around 6:15am-6:30am.   At 7:00am we were allowed to begin leaving the ship.  We carried our own luggage to an empty line at customs, then out to a cab by 7:15am.  From there, we were driven to the airport, went through an empty line at agriculture in terminal 4, checked 2 bags on jetblue (empty line), went through TSA security (empty) and were at our gate by 7:45am (for an 11:06am departure).  Spent the morning relaxing eating breakfast and drinking coffee at an airport cafe near our gate.   Yay for self-disembarking!!!!

Just back from Freedom of the Seas.    Don Julio 1942 Tequila was found at Boleros!  $14 per drink (or $2 upcharge on package). 

$42pp/day is the lowest I've seen.   Black Friday/Cyber monday are good times to go to the cruise planner.

BobNoxious on Freedom on Nov 4.    Happy Cruising everyone!!!!

St. Kitts - Carambola beach club.   Quick taxi ride.  You can make a reservation for chair/umbrella on their website.  Good food and snorkeling there too.

Apparently they rolled out a new "buggy" website for logging in, but now nobody can access cruise planners.   Maybe it will get fixed today?   Lots of chatter on twitter:
