Great, that's just what I wanted to know!!

I'll be sailing on Ovation in a couple of weeks, and I've purchased the refreshment package. If I decide I want an alcoholic frozen drink, would I pay full price, or the difference in price?

I booked Leo for my Freedom sailing next week!

I noticed that RCCL now showing a BOGO 2 Night Dining Package on my 11/26 Freedom of the Seas sailing. Has anyone booked this, and had a problem changing restaurants that are pre-selected? Believe it or not, most of my group isn't interested in trying Sabor.

Does anyone know if there are any type of specialty dining packages being offered on Freedom?

Thanks for the info everyone!!

Matt did they have any Dreamworks themed events on the ship?

Does anyone know if they have the Dreamworks parades on Quantum, like they do on Oasis and Allure?

Thanks for the tips everyone!! Going to hit as many of these as I can.

So I'm less than a week away from my first RCCL cruise on Jewel of the Seas. What are the must do's onboard that you'd recommend? George

Does anyone have a current menu for Chops?

We're definitely considering either JetBlue or Southwest. The ability to get credit for price drops, as well as some free checked bags, makes them both tops in my book.

I have the pre-cruise hotel narrowed down to: The Caribe Hilton The Condado Plaza Hilton The Embassy Suites El Convento My favorite is definitely El Convento, but the price is a little steep. Anyone have any advice or other recommendations?

I'm leading a group on a Jewel of the Seas sailing on November 15th departing from San Juan. We still haven't booked airfare as the price is still hanging up around $400 from Hartford, CT. I expected the price to be closer to $350.00 and I'm wondering if I may be incorrect. I'm hoping that somone else with experience flying into SJU from New England has some advice.

I'm really excited about the new dining options! I really haven't considered a cruise on Quantum or Anthem yet, but after hearing about this change to dining, it's definitely piqued my intererst.

Marc, did you experience any noise? I've read numerous reviews of noise from the crew access gangway that's just behind one wall of the cabin?

I booked clients last year sailing to Labadee, and cabanas at Nellie's beach were available to book as an excursion. It was on the very last page of the exursion list, so people may not think to look there. They had an over the water cabana and absolutely loved it!

I've been to a Johnny Rockets on land, and I have to say the the meal was average in quality. I would most likely pay an upcharge for milkshakes, or hard serve ice cream sundaes. But I don't know that I'd be willing to pay $5.95 for a burger and fries, that IMO should be included at no charge. My last 2 cruises were on Carnival ships that had Guy's Burger Joint, and the burgers were great, and no upcharge.

My next, and first, RCCL cruise is November 15th aboard the Jewel! I also booked it far enough in advance that I was able to secure 3 aft balconies for my group! ~George

For me, it's definitely choosing excursions. I can't begin to guess how many hours I've spent scouring Cruise Critic reading reviews on excursions.
