Just curious, has anyone brought on board their firestick/apple tv, etc and plugged into the stateroom tv? We noticed last year on Oasis that the tvs had HDMI ports, but was wondering if anyone successfully used one. Hubby got tired of watching Shrek over and over again lol

Thanks!

If you have a drink package, the pineapple price does come down, so you only pay the difference of what the drink package does not cover.

awesome! Thanks!!

Are the pina coladas served in the pineapples poolside included in any of the beverage packages?

another thing just to keep in mind is that it rains in Florida almost every day during the summer around 3pm until about 7pm and its usually pretty substantial rain. 

Hope it works out for you!

I imagine two scooters in one room is going to be a tight fit.

they do it...they pretty much can't use the couch and stack the tables 

I was just looking at Allures most recent cruise compass posted here and I noticed that next to Dinner there is a different name each night:

1-Mojo

2-Saffron

3-Pimiento

4-Basil

5-Shitake

6-Jasmine

7-Pomodoro

Any rhyme or reason for this?

no experience with those rental companies, but both my parents and my brother in law are bringing their own scooters on board Allure next month. They keep the scooter in the room with them and just rearrange the furniture.

That sounds fantastic!   

I wonder if, after the up-charge is paid, you can try more than one.

what do you mean? Will there be an upcharge for the filet? I know at dinner the larger steaks have an upcharge

I haven't seen a Chops lunch menu.

Just a heads up that I've not seen the lunch menu. Not sure if the Filet Mignon is on the lunch fare

The sample menu has it listed--i know these can change, but fingers crossed it's available for lunch!

We loved Chops for dinner last year so we booked it for a night this cruise next week also. When we heard you could also do lunch there, we jumped on it. The food exp the filet mignon is outstanding! 

Thanks! Booked it so my sister and I can take my dad to lunch for his filet mignon! 

thanks everyone! haha looks like this one will be a good one! Have to get a few drinks in first!

Just saw in my cruise planner for Allure that they are offering Chops for lunch at $19pp

worth it??

Last year on Oasis we ended up at WJ for lunch on sea days and I'd like to change it up with either MDR or Izumi this year!

We are also doing Giovannis and Samba for dinner so not sure if the Chops menu is worth the extra charge

Thanks!

What is The Quest? 

I've seen it mentioned on a few threads and I saw it on the itinerary on last years OTS cruise, but not sure exactly what it is. 

Details?

On Oasis last year we noticed a few times we had to push the beds back together because one of us was sinking into the "crack"....maybe just too much "motion in the ocean"  ;)  :wub:

How early do I really have to arrive to the shows to get a decent seat? Is it really 45 minutes ahead of time? What's the latest time to get there?

Also, we'll be a party of 8 so will they allow us to save seats? 

Thanks!

There's no guarantee of real eggs unless you go with the fried variety.

 

While I don't consider these premium offerings, I will concede that having eggs cooked to order and delivered to the cabin would be a nice perk. I just think the price point is too high unless you have a cabin full of people all ordering at the same time.

and that's why I don't eat scrambled eggs! lol 

Ok Let's dissect this response.

 

"Royal Caribbean International has introduced a new premium room (I WOULDN'T CONSIDER SOME OF THESE ITEMS PREMIUM,SCRAMBLED EGGS,FRIED EGGS,GRILLED CHEESE,HOT DOG AND QUESADILLA WOW)

compared to the continental breakfast this is an upgrade lol....and real eggs hopefully

After reading all of the comments here and on the original post--am I the only person that doesn't mind paying the $7.95 fee?? lol I think I am for sure

I see it as this--as long as the food is "upgraded" from the WJ and it comes within a "fair" amount of time, it doesn't bother me to pay the extra. Paying extra for the same burger or same pizza, I'll for sure pass. And I'll definitely pass on the continental breakfast because let's face it, its poop  :P  but I know my husband would happily enjoy an omelette in our room instead of having to put on pants to go to the MDR, the only other place to get an omelette. You pay for room service in a hotel and you pay much more inflated prices than $7.95 and while I understand that everyone is on this "nickel and dime" you stance, this change is personally not causing me to shop other CL.

Just my 2cents :)

The On a Roll sushi making class just opened up in MyCruises for my May Allure cruise and was wondering if anyone has taken it before and offer a review or feedback? 

It's $30pp

Thanks!

The attached are the benefits they dont tell you about until you are onboard.

Yes exactly what I was looking for! Thanks!!

I'm an overplanner like you, but I learned that it's best to plan for everything, but then not be upset once you get there and then go with the flow. I know my family is not going to want to do everything I want to, but I'm planning for it anyway.

Can anyone share what are the C&A perks for your second cruise?? Will be our second in May!

I notice in my cruise planner that there are various discounts for spa treatments depending on what day and time you book ie: cruising days are more expensive than port days.

I remember on Oasis last year they offered $99 for 6 mini treatments on the last cruising day.

Will there be better discounts offered on board? Or like with everything else, is the best discount offered pre cruise?
