Back on topic, god I hope they don't bring back the old muster drill. What a regressive step.

Great news @Matt. Interesting to note that the compliance rate is actually higher than the old muster drill. So reverting would actually make things worse.  In short, everyone's a winner with eMuster

For simplicity I generally use the Australian website. For example, when I used the Hong Kong website to book a cruise to Japan Royal ended up cancelling the cruise and issued a FCC in HK$ for the inconvenience.
It was only redeemable on that website and there wasn't another cruise we wanted to book so effectively we lost the FCC.
I think if there are no issues it should not matter which one you book with but if there are issues it can be a lot more work.
MEI travel will book for Australian passengers so I would suggest using them to purchase a cruise in USD so at least they can work on your behalf if something unforeseen happens.
 
 
 

Royal created eMuster before they knew a pandemic was coming.  
There is no need to go back, they only ever planned to go forward.  

Royal Caribbean isn't planning to go back to the old drill

On a recent Marella cruise you picked up your sea pass card from your muster station, if you didn't go to your station, no room access and no drinks. Didin't hear any announcements chasing people to complete their muster drill.

"Again not trying to start a debate". 
Literally everything you are saying is opening up a window for just that. It's like saying your not trying to do that is your get out of jail free card to ramble on about your personal beliefs on Covid, Masks, etc. 
Everyone should just live by the, You Do You, I'll Do Me policy. 

Captains Corner on Ovation this morning… Lelepa should be open for the 2026 season. 

I'd consider that a damn good alternative, almost a win.
