It’s awfully tough to mount a defense after seeing that video.

So I got the chance to meet the Cruise Director, and film a small segment for Royal Caribbean TV!
 
 

You can justify the request however you would like. I just thought it was rude to ask someone to purchase an expensive piece of equipment to make your life easier. 

NEW VLOG! I LOVE MAKING VIDEOS ON OASIS!
 
 

Who said that Royal was charging him? My point was that I think it’s unnecessary to charge the man, It was a tragic accident. The grandfather is not a danger to society putting him in jail wouldn’t really accomplish anything. 

We put them in airplane mode as soon as we pull away from the dock. 

Just arrived! Waiting to sign-on the ship.
 

I agree, but I also appreciate that we have a royal port in the northeast. We’ve taken our last 4 cruises out of cape liberty and it just makes it much more affordable for us. We choose to go in April and May so we don’t really have to deal the rough northeast weather. Those that leave in the winter just have to accept that they might have a day or two of frigid temps.

It’s not the northeast weather that’s causing the issue though, It’s the weather in Florida and the Bahamas. I also take a cruise anywhere anytime. 

Alright I think thats enough hijacking of the thread, the topic was dropped so lets move on
@CHRIS WONG what are you most looking forward to checking out on Oasis after her Amplification?

Thanks for sharing these videos. They are great, I’ll be on Oasis May 10th 2020. I hope to find you still working in the casino. 

I'm not inherently a dishonest person... but I always just move the towels if I don't see anyone on them after about 15 minutes (I only do it when there are no personal items). The ONE TIME someone came back, we had been sitting in the seat for over an hour, so I simply told them there were no towels present when we showed up. I reminded them of the policy and told them their towels must have been removed by staff. Maybe not the most honest thing... but neither is not adhering to the very obvious rules...

Just check the cruise planner on Black Friday through the weekend including cyber Monday.

So that's not really the bad thing...they can end any promo they want anytime. I get it.
 
Apparently, for those that have it booked..they are losing ALL the perks and getting a$50 OBC......are you kidding me? What a slap in the face from Royal.
 
I get it Royal..you aren't making enough from the package..or losing too much. But at least honor those who have booked it and many who have probably paid extra or booked those cabins to get the deal. Real cheap and low blow from Royal IMHO.

In my humble opinion, a gratuity that is mandatory is not a gratuity.  What are we gratuitous for? Paying the extra 18%?  This is just a tax levied by RCCL and kept by RCCL.

I agree, when gratuity is mandatory and not left to anyone’s judgement it should just be added up front. 

As longs as they keep finding suckers to pay it they will keep charging it, me I’ll stick with the free lounger and pop for the rented umbrella at $15.

I don’t think the judgement would be so harsh if the family didn’t hire a law firm that sues royal regularly immediately after the tragedy happened.

Geez $62, I’ll be on oasis next May and it’s $79.  That’s a huge difference when you have a family of 4 or more. I would think it would be cheaper for the bigger ships. Anyway I love the idea of 2 days at cococay, I could definitely skip either port Canaveral or Nassau. Preferably Port Canaveral
