Pat and Bob Posted September 6, 2022 Report Share Posted September 6, 2022 I have booked our first cruise for Aug. 2023. This will be for our 55th Wedding Anniv. Cruising out of Orlando, and have downloaded the APP. We will be buying the drink packages, and have read that you can use it as soon as you get on board. Will we be given any type of card to use? I hate sounding dumb, but I guess I am being our first Cruise. Thanks for any info you can give us on first day.

On the app you can show your seapass card till you get you actual one in your cabin or just tell them your cabin number Pat and Bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Va4fam Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Congratulations on your 55th Anniversary next year. Quite an accomplishment. Enjoy the planning and fun of your first cruise. To answer your question, your sea pass card will have the drink package included. It may be a short amount of time after you board before you get your sea pass card but you can show a bartender your setsail pass or give them your room number and you should be fine.

AandD Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Congratulations on your Anniversary. I know its old fashion but stop and play shuffleboard on deck with somebody. Something a little different, but we have had fun playing a game with other couples. asquared17 and Pat and Bob 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Your seapass card is used to access your room (as a keycard), shown at the bars (for your drink package) and to purchase items onboard (you'll link a credit card to it). Enjoy your first cruise! Pat and Bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neesa Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Congratulations on your amazing milestone, please ask away no question is dumb. Knowing ahead of time will make your sailing that much more enjoyable. I was new to RC in 2019 and after 9 sailings I still have questions! If you are comfortable sharing what ship you are sailing we can provide so many tips and tricks, things you didn't know you didn't know. So many times this happens to me, this cruise is to celebrate and to relax, this kind group will provide everything you need & sometimes even pics!

Pat and Bob Posted September 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Thank you everyone for your answers. We will be on a 4 night Bahamas out of Port Canaveral on the Independence of the Seas. Yes we have been married for 55 yeas next August. Much like many others, life has been hard many times, but now this is something my wife has wanted to do for many, many years. There was a mention of a Set Sail Pass. will that be emailed to me? Thanks again. asquared17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brdjnr Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Congrats on that milestone! You are at a great resource for figuring things out. You will have many questions, and like this one they are usually asked/answered. research and analyze, when you get onboard enjoy!

Thanks again. When you are closer to your sail date (this can fluctuate since Covid - but around the 60 day mark) you'll be prompted to start the check in process. Soon after that your SetSail Pass will appear as a link on your account page and you'll be able to view/print it. Congrats!

Jerseygirl98 Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Congratulations that’s quite a milestone! You should download the Royal Caribbean application on your phone. Then input your cruise using your booking number. This app will then show you the date that you’ll check in for your cruise. It’s usually 45 days before sailing. During check in you’ll choose an arrival time to the pier, enter identification information and answer 3 health questions. Once that’s completed you’ll be able to view and print your SetSail Pass.

KJones Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Your SetSail pass is like a boarding pass to check in at the terminal. It will have your account information so it can be used in the meantime before your Sea Pass is available. Pat and Bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barjpoe Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 You may want to think about getting the Anniversary package, or Anniversary decorations oft the Gifts and Gear. Since your cruise isn't until next August try to see what the price is around Black Friday. Remember you can always buy it now and if the price goes down cancel and rebuy.
