God, I just wished they would stop with all the "New" sales they offer!  The only thing changing is the wording which equates to NOTHING.  And then I love when they say "only four hours left"  or "Sales has been Extended"   
Please Please Please Marketing and Sales for RCCL, lets start having some real sales!!!!  I would say one every quarter, hell, I would be happy with once a month!
Anyway, Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!!  We leave on the Allure Sunday!!!!!  Sorry about the rant!!!

They might even make it a "shore excursion" saying pay up or you can't get of ship!   lol

Good thing the Corporate IT department or the ones working on this integration isn't touching the ship side of operations!!!!!  lol  We would have ship doing circles in the oceans.  haha

Does he like the flowrider?  If so, get him a semi private session!  Maybe a behind the scene tour!

My family wouldn't mind more sea days, more flow time!!!!

We are sailing on her from FLL to SJU one way on 5/6/18, which will make her home port SJU.  The adventure will take her place in the Fall in FLL

Currently, And I stress Currently the Fast Pass does not cost anything.  If they feel the need to create some type of crowd control for the activities in question, a process like the Fast Pass could be solution.  

BS on the crowd control and BS on charging for it!  These so called all inclusive cruise vacations may be a thing of the past.  Oh Yeah, it's all about the profit, what a go to statement now a days. 
I have waited for over 40 minutes maybe more in the flow rider line.,  Do I like it, No but it doesn't stop me waiting in line.  Just think you might start a conversation with the person next to you and not with your smart phone.  I have made many new friends on the flow rider line.

We are so bummed, we booked a one-way 5/6/18 on the Freedom ending in San Juan just the wife and I.  We could have taken the Indy trans Atlantic from FLL after the refub but the sailing on 5/5/18 is showing sold out. I think they are using that time to finish up on last min things.   Matt can you get us on it. lol

We are celebrating a bunch of things too, Our son Graduates from High School, Our daughter graduates from 8th grade, my wife and I are celebrating our 50th b days.

We sailed on her for thanksgiving and I'm on shift today at the fire department.  I will post tomorrow, I hope it is easy as this will be my first time posting one.

Good Morning,
So my family and I had the pleasure of Meeting him on our Thanksgiving cruise aboard the Freedom.  What a great man.  Very humble and spoke with us for about 15 to 20 minutes.  Look for him on your next cruise and his wood sign.

Scored two Junior Suites next to each other on our 9 Night Christmas Cruise that leaves 12/21/17.  Wohoo!

I was a little worried about WJ noise and we had no issues with it.

How about after the automatic 20%, you are asked to if you would like to add "additional gratuity"!  
The whole practice of tipping has gotten so out of hand, everywhere you turn now a days there is a tip jar sitting there.  I am firmly in the camp of just charge me a price that affords the business owner the ability to pay the employee a fair wage.    

Since we are veering into the tip/rant discussion, I have always had an issue with the flat 18% "gratuity tax" on drinks and was extremely pleasantly surprised to find out the Carnival doesn't charge it on the self-serve beer stations ... actual logic .... if you aren't receiving a service you aren't charged for it !!
Back to Royal though, it has always rubbed me the wrong way to pay a flat 18% on all charges ... if you take the time to hand make a great cocktail for me, absolutely you deserve a tip and I have no problem giving it ... if you take the top of my bottle of beer and hand it to me (or better yet, put six unopened beers in my cooler for me to carry around and open later) not feeling that to be worth 18% ... maybe i'm just a cheapskate but sorry the level of effort involved doesn't warrant it in my book.
