    AndrewPunch got a reaction from Pattycruise in Alaska, -Vancouver-airlines? NY or other airport?   
    Using WestJet (Canada's #2 airline) to go from MSP-Edmonton-Vancouver.  Will let you know how it goes.

    Never got an email, just went to the site listed above and saw what was available to bid on. Now just to wait to see if they take any of my bids.

    One thing I have learned from the casino industry is that if you can put up a velvet rope and allow some people to come in, others to wait and charge those that don't is a great money maker.  I see this sticking around and being more monetized like sitting in the front of the plane seats in the future.

    Got off Symphony of the Seas and first time in a crown loft suite (sky class) and it was great. We did the royal up because we were going to 4 to a oceanview balcony and it was great.  I just thought hey bigger room better for the family but the other perks is what I was blown away with.
    1. Reservations not needed:  Everything I read about Symphony was get on board early, get on the ship's wifi and start making reservations with a pre-planned strategy.  Instead got an email the week before and just sent my list in and Nadja and Jennie took care of it. 
    2. Reservations really not needed:  The show schedule got all moved around so my reservations got moved and had to reschedule but couldn't do it in the app.  Went to ladies on deck 17 suite lounge got a little piece of paper and walked right in to every show we wanted even like an hour before show time.  I will miss this going back down in cabin class.
    3. Suite Deck,  more importantly suite deck bar.  We had the drink package and several times I would have another drink handed to me before even asking.  
    4. Drink Package not really needed.  The included beer and wine in coastal kitchen/suite lounge along with evening cocktails made me rethink the need of a drink package if I go up to this level again. 
    5. Checkin/Getting off the ship:  So amazingly easy and getting walked off was a treat in itself. 
     
    It just was amazing to meet so many different people all on the same ship having a different cruise.  We were in the lap of luxury, others were boozing it up, others were gaming the casino (facebook slot pulls to gain casino points off other peoples money) and others were not enjoying it.  Thanks this board and site for helping us plan and have a great time.

    Yes!
    However the terminal may not be accepting guests right at 10:30am but you can get in the queue and be one of the first to be let in the terminal.  The ship may not be boarding once through check in but there will be a suite waiting area for the brief wait until the ship begins boarding once CBP allows it.

    Just got our Royal Up big accepted on Monday March 14th (10:00 AM CST) for our March 26th sailing.  Seen these on a few other threads looks like Royal starts accepting bids 12 days before sailing at least currently.

    I have the question into Royal but figure I would ask here as well.  I have a few bids into Royal Up for my upcoming cruise however the credit card I have entered got compromised this week so I canceled it.  I can't find how to update the payment information on the bid just didn't know if anyone else has run into this.
    on a Sidenote:  Someone ordered $140 from Subway on the card in a different state which I didn't know that was possible to spend that much at a Subway.
