Chef's Table is held in the same spot as Celebration Table.

For Rope the Jackpot watchers... Just inside the smoking area are two "Pinball Double Gold", 9 line, 10 credit max. Credits .25, .50, $1, and $2. Plus two "Double Top Dollar" on the otherside of the Pinball machines, same credit setup. Between these two games were my winning sessions. Various Buffalo style machines just trampled over my money.

Yes in the SL, I did snag an Angry Orchard once or twice. Waters and sodas numerous times.

Think the one with the pineapple might be Viking's Crown. Think I've just about tried the entire menu, other than the namesake 1400.

Same menu for Pinn, the event was held day 3.

I'll second buying the wide version. True it looks a little funky having an excess tag holder. Just makes managing the tags a lot easier.

1400, at 4 in the morning (-4 GMT)...

Going to second only one way intened in/out. It does look like they could allow access via the track. Signage above the doors say "Royal Promenade" with an arrow pointing towards the front. However, I'm thinking it is geared more for emergency egress than general crowd flow.

Love it, Lime and Coconut Frozen on deck 16! This is the Mango Sunrise

Don't matter. Best to think of it in the way of accounts instead of people. One person, three devices is a way of saying one login account that allows any three devices at once to have internet access. Three person, one device would be three logins that allow any single device at a time to have access to the internet. @PG Cruiser made this helpful diagram

One could consider becoming an INSIDER via Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/RoyalCaribbeanBlog Another means would be joining the channel on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RoyalCaribbeanBlog I'd love it if an ad-free version of the site could be created for supporters. Flipside, I'd be disappointed if content went down the paywall path.

The blog has a write up of the Chief Dog Officer: https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2024/01/18/i-take-care-of-dog-the-worlds-largest-cruise-ship-being-the-chief-dog-officer-dream-job Answer on where Rover sleeps: Speaking of sleeping, Rover sleeps with Hubble in her cabin.

I've used that style holder in the past. They work great on ships where the card needs to be swiped plus the bar code on the back isn't obscured. I still prefer the thin plastic pouch on ships that use a tap-style card. To me, the slide-out holders are a little bulky compared to the plastic pouch.

Nothing was mentioned about 11 AM to 11 PM water, soft drinks, beer, and wine. Time will tell if the Oasis class SL/CK tradition will carry on. Then again, the 11-11 offerings have never been mentioned in the Welcome email.

From the terms of the UDP: Izumi Sushi is a prix fixe menu or $39.99 food credit. Izumi Hibachi is included, with a $15 surcharge. Chef's Table is included, with a $49.99 surcharge. Empire Supper Club is included, with a $130 surcharge. Not valid for: Celebration Table, Izumi in the Park, Chops Grille premium cuts, Main Dining Room premium items, Taste of Royal, Chef's Table, Culinary Activities, and Holiday Celebration Dinners. I think it has been mentioned that Pier 7 and the extra cost items at Basecamp would be covered by the a la carte credit.

That would be the one.

Very unlikely to have a bottled delivered. However, you could ask for several glasses, neat, to be delivered at once. Tonic, that can be readily stocked.

I've seen one video posted, seach YouTube for "Icon Casino Royale". Isn't the greatest, but gives an idea of layout.

Think it has to be applied to a booking within 12 months. Dated booked doesn't matter, just applied.

Plenty of parking, located within a shopping plaza. The plaza also had a Publix and Total Wine if you had to pick anything else up.
