dodgestang Posted June 2, 2021 Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 I just used it a couple months ago when I switched from an Oasis out of NJ to Adventure out of Nassua.....now I can't seem to find a website that lets me interact with them and enter a booking number and start planning air travel? Cruisingpower is looking for agent log in and no longer appears to be consumer oriented Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jill Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 If you search Air2Sea on the website it takes you to FAQ’s which eventually leads you to the website. https://secure.cruisingpower.com/choiceair/protected/home.do?brand=R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 I'd like to know why RC pulled the link off their Air2Sea page. They just want you to call now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why I started the thread. It really is weird how HARD they make it to find the website for self service air through their program.

dswallow Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 You no longer access Air2Sea/ChoiceAir directly; you go through the menu at royalcaribbean.com. See it under "Manage My Cruise" then "Book a Flight". It takes you to: https://www.royalcaribbean.com/flights/bookFlights teddy, cruisellama, joshgates and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your flights are delayed/cancelled, Royal will work with you to get to the ship. cruisellama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just want you to call now. I found a link on the RCCL home page to book a flight at the very bottom. There are 4 columns of links and on the far right under the column heading "PLAN A CRUISE" there is a link called "Book A Flight." It brings up a form asking for the booked cruise particulars. I played with it and could not find a way to book a flight a day before the cruise departure. We are also on a back to back cruise and it only offered us a round trip booking for the first cruise. We are certainly looking for out of the ordinary flight options. I think this is my last cruise I book myself and will utilize a travel agent going forward.

(2) At the top of the page when you're browsing flights, with or without a reservation, you can change the dates. (3) If you use a travel agent, why would you use a travel agent that isn't able to handle your flights as well, via Air2Sea or otherwise?

smokeybandit Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 All the flights were on the old website. Just the website was so hard to use you had to get creative with your search criteria. I've found flights on the website before that it took the agent a while to find on their screen. But now if I can't use the website for a non-RC held reservation, would I even be allowed to call? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJones Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 @smokeybanditI imagine you could call and see what flights / prices are available. The actual booking of the flights might have to be done by your agent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted November 17, 2021 Report Share Posted November 17, 2021 RC just sent out an email about their newly re-furbished Air2Sea. All of the above comments still apply. Looks like you can't use it directly if you have a TA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oliver Posted November 17, 2021 Report Share Posted November 17, 2021 Yes I got the email as well and I went to the website to check it out and of course the website is down. Royal IT at its finest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisellama Posted November 18, 2021 Report Share Posted November 18, 2021 It tends to provide advantages in price, (and connection backups) especially for international flights. One observed negative, if you live near a major air hub, and able to catch domestic direct flights easily to other gateways, you won't see direct flights early in the air offering window (about 9 months out). The direct flights become available closer to the cruise date which ends up costing more than if you booked directly with the airline 6 months out.

Rmasters11 Posted November 30, 2021 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 The "new" Air2Sea simply does not work. As an example I am on a TA leaving from Ft. Lauderdale to Barcelona. The site won't let me choose a 1 way flight, only round trip. Worthless! If I go with a round trip just to see what happens, I get an error message saying that the "From" city cannot be the same as the embarkation city. Worthless again! The old site used to work perfectly and used it many times but this new site is completely useless! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
