We too loved the itinerary... If you have any interest, here is my "live blog" from our Odyssey sailing this past FEB... Hopefully, it will give you a small taste of Odyssey and this itinerary:  

 

Do you have a youtube link also ?

Can't speak to Odyssey, our first time on will be in January, 2024 and we're on it specifically for this itinerary.

Everyone's mileage will vary regarding their opinion of ports, but Curacao is one of our favorites.  We've only been once, we were supposed to be there this past June until a tropical storm forced an itinerary change.

You can do a general search for Curacao on this forum and you'll get lots of info and advice.  For me, it's all about the town itself and the walk from the ship to the town.  Most Curacao stops go well into the evening because the town is magnificent after dark.  The people are great, excellent shopping, there are excursions to choose from (we did the distillery and a beach break), but save time to just walk the town.  Don't be afraid to explore side streets and alley ways, you may find some hidden surprises.

I am debating between the Odyssey or Icon for March 2024 , i am aware 2 very different itineraries , that is were i and deciding on at the moment .

Has anyone sailed on Odyssey of the seas and  i would like your comments Likes , Dislikes any information ?

Was thinking about to Aruba but it also stops at Willemstad, Curacao but i was told there is not much at this stop

What month is the Best time to go with the least amount of Kids under 16 ?

Is Icon of the seas more catered for children , My wife and i have raised our children and there adults now,  and was wondering if the icon is more children oriented then adults,  as for us when we go on vacation  we do not mind children for say, But do not want go on a cruise catered for children, can we get some opinions on this ship ????

 Keep checking for cruise planner sales. If the price goes down lower than your current price, you can cancel and re-book the drink package for the lower price.

Mine is at $22.99 also has anyone seen lower on the Refreshment Package lately ????

What is the Best price for the UDP on The  wonder for 7 nights  my sailing they have it listed for $219  has anyone seen lower price on the wonder ??

Is The Crown & anchor coupon vouchers $13 for all bars and all day and nite a permanent thing or is this a short time event ?

I too have a Feb 2023 cruise booked, and don't even have dining packages! Literally just a handful of excursions at full price.

I've heard 9 months, and I've heard 6 months in advance of sail date. I have a Feb 2023 cruise booked, and all I have in my cruise planner is dining packages right now.  I check it every few days just in case (also want to book early). 

 

We always Tip our Cabin Stewart Pre Cruise and at the End even though i had Pre Paid Gratuities ,  and i usually use specialty dining and always Leave $10 to $20 tip each meal .

Prices do change…higher, lower, according to different sales.  My advice is book when you see a price you like…because you can always call and get a lower price anytime up until 48 hours before sailing.  Lol my family laughs at me because once I have a cruise booked it becomes a ritual for me to check the pricing pretty much daily!  And I will say I have saved quite a bit!  Not that I am a frequent cruiser either…although that is my ultimate goal!!!

Thank your for the advice ..

the cruise i was looking at went up by $400 i should have booked last week was much cheaper , maybe next week it will drop again , who knows,   "WOW" HeHe

yes.

So no more stupid drink menu , and i can order frozen drinks now also

Diamond Lounge Happy Hour Drink Vouchers,  Rccl Made changes to the program it now says you can buy drinks up to $13 a voucher , Does mean they no longer have the diamond Drink Menu and you can order any drink up to $13 per voucher no expectation ?

Thank you i took it this morning Wednesday 12-29 at 4 am EST,   for my Friday Boarding sailing 12-31,  I  hope it will be ok !

And yes came up Negative ! 

I am Vaccinated and was wondering does it matter the time of day you can test , or can i test 3 am before 2 days before boarding Day ?  before i go to work , or do i need to wait 48 hr from boarding time ?

i ordered the 2- 2 packs not sure i will need all them

i am pending also for my 12-31 symphony i am in a BW Balcony,  and my extra space ocean view balcony is pending , and my JS is expired so i did not bid high enough on that at $340 PP ,  i did not get any option higher than a JS ,
