If only Royal had a system that customers and TA’s could actually look at FCC’s availability, wouldn’t that be great. 🤔

You now need to trade-in you Bermuda Shorts for your Newfounderland Long Johns.  🤪

Gotta try to completely disable Harmony before they send it over to us plebs in Texas.

Piece of advice for anyone that wants it....never get a Future Cruise Credit.  Take the refund every time.

Don't forget today is the last day to book for some FCC's.  I'm currently working with MEI to see what I have available to use since the last TA has it in a mess. 

Suck getting old doesn’t it…

I don’t know if I would go as far as saying that.   I’ve paid a lot more on some of the smaller ships, than what you could get for the Oasis & Quantum class ships. There’s fewer suits on the smaller ships, which fetched higher prices IMO.

The next question is, since the CDC now considered those that haven’t had booster shots to be in the same category as Unvaccinated…yep you heard that right…does RC consider that currently?

The CDC is a complete joke.  

We plan to be on our 1/9 Anthem sailing. If ports get skipped it'll probably save me money, keeps the wife out of the shops 🙂 Plus the NH weather stinks.

I can understand that! I’ve made it a point to NOT accept any FCC’s due to RCCl inability to issue correct amounts, tracking and distribution of credit amounts (They (RC) spread out on previous FCC into 3 separate cruise, which the original amount could have been used on 1 sailing. 🤦‍♂️ Needless to say TA wasn’t happy with that process, which I couldn’t blame him.

Could have left one letter.  😜

I had to darken in the word that what was before then. 😂

Yes, as far as I know the annual cruise comp must be used (sail by) 3-31-22.  I am losing 4 of them (2 from 2020 and 2 from 2021).

Closing...Just got off the phone with the TA....RC's final offer was to reinstate us on cancelled cruise (no OBC offered) TA tried, our original booked room is gone. Upgrade offer wasn't worth spending that kind of cash right now for just the first leg, so the TA guilted RC into giving us full refund on both cruises since they (RC) cancelled it and not our fault.  
Right now we have a sour taste in our mouth and hope this isn't what we have to look forward to in the future. We still haven't received FCC certificates from RC from previous cruises and have grown tired of tracking them.  That's the main reason why opted to not take FCC at this time.
Our next cruises isn't until April 2022, so we will wait to book after that with all preexisting FCC certificates before they expire and hope RC can get there stuff in order. 
Now to cancel hotel and airline tickets. 🥴

Now I have more questions than answers. 🤔 Why was I able to see the reservation still online (I didn’t open the booking) since RC rep stated that it was canceled before today? What was I seeing? Is RC software/dbase that antiquated that glitches drop reservations from the system? If so, how often does this happen? Is there a better way to get better results that protect the consumer? If so, is that an insurance protection plan, how would that helped?
