MicDay Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 We just got back from Alaska on Ovation and had an amazing time. My only complaint was the toilet paper (geez that's some rough thin paper) The crew members were outstanding, my survey took me a bit to get in all the names. So we stayed in a Jr Suite ( just James and I) for the first time. We decide to try Europe again so we go to the NextCruise to book (learned it's just better to book direct with my TA Kelley from MEI) I asked about 2 connecting OV balconies, my husband stops me and says Jr Suites or higher. He said he really enjoyed the space and was not going smaller. We now are booked in a 2 bedroom GS, it's the only 2 bedroom Rhapsody of the Seas had available. I know Rhapsody does not have the perks bigger class ships have but we are ok with that.

barbeyg Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 I understand. My hubby is distressed that we have balcony cabins (side by side) booked with my sister and aunt for AK next year. He has gotten used to JS at a minimum. He just asked me again a bit ago about Royal Up, and was disappointed I told him no (yet again) that we booked close together and would be separated. He is hoping to catch me in a weak moment. It is hard to go back, isn’t it? WAAAYTOOO, MicDay, Neesa and 1 other 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pooch Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 I feel your (first world) pain. We have an 8 day southern Caribbean booked for late next year in a JS on Explorer. Watching YouTube videos, I know hubby will not be happy. Hoping the GS drops a few hundred so I can upgrade. Somehow I suspect I will be doing it no matter what anyway.

DandA Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 Yeah I think i may have created a suite snob too. Just came back from the Adventure of the Seas in a JS for the first time, DW loved the tub and extra room. I have to admit I did enjoy the larger room, now she keeps asking me about a JS for our cruise next September.

If I were your husband, I would get a JS for myself! Aww, he loves these crazy women. He want to Royal Up for both cabins, but it’s not in the budget. Plus, I already have to get them a badge that says, “If lost, return to Cabin ####. If they are across the ship or on another deck from ours, they will get lost all the time. #DirectionallyChallenged Pooch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedNoodles Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 I'm trying to turn Mr. SpeedNoodles into a suite snob (we've yet to stay in one). I've booked most of our next cruises in JS, but I've submitted a RoyalUp for our October sailing in the hopes of getting a full suite. I haven't even told him that we're in a Jr Suite, so it'd be a blast to surprise him with a real suite. There are about 7 Crown Loft Suites available now on our sailing, but I think he'd be unhappy being up on Deck 17, away from where we like to spend most of our time, so I rescinded my bid on that (bummer, because we had the best chance of getting that type). I also put bids on a Grand Suite (both 1 & 2 bdrm), an Owner's Suite, and a 1 & 2 bedroom AquaSuite. I'm secretly hoping for the 1 bedroom AquaSuite. Ok, so it's not a secret anymore.

My daughter and I like being spoiled. We were originally in an interior for this past cruise but I wanted to spoil him and it backfired.
