KristaBridges Posted June 5, 2023 Report Posted June 5, 2023 We are a family of five looking to book a one bedroom suite on adventure of the seas. We will have to book an inside state room across the hall for the teenager since the suite only sleeps 4. Just wondering if the teenager in the inside cabin will receive the perks of the rest of the family that come with the suite. does that make sense? Quote
Xaa Posted June 5, 2023 Report Posted June 5, 2023 It makes sense. Only the occupants of the suite get any of the perks associated with it. Neesa, KristaBridges and VirtKitty 2 1 Quote

Ryan79 Posted June 5, 2023 Report Posted June 5, 2023 No, only the actual booked suite guests will get the suite perks. Otherwise, what stops a family reunion from booking one suite and 10 interior rooms and everyone getting suite perks? This includes priority embarkation/disembarkation, access to suite lounge and Coastal Kitchen. Neesa and KristaBridges 1 1 Quote

Another question, if we book a suite big enough for the 5 of us (so all our names are booked with the perks) and just want an extra cabin for stuff/space, can we get a cabin with no one in it ? Quote

The cabin has to have a pax booked in it and one person cannot be booked in multiple rooms. So, you can pay for an extra room, have a person be a no show but that's a lot of work as the cabin may not be located near the suite. The most important thing is to figure out if the cost is worth it. On Adventure, the suite perks are minimal. If you cannot get a 2br GS, then maybe look at getting two balconies and the Key.

I actually read this as having two people registered for the inside cabin, then having one of them be a no show. That could work, but it sounds like having everyone in the suite with suite benefits is the more desired outcome. Quote

Your suitcases will fit under the beds. Some people never bother to unpack, they just slide the suitcase out, get what they need, and slide back under. If you really think you'll need more room for your stuff, please consider that you may be planning to bring way too much stuff! If you think you need more space for the people, remember that there's an entire ship to explore. Neesa, Cactus527 and VirtKitty 3 Quote

There is a lot of storage in 1 bedroom GS. Big closets and drawers and shelves everywhere. With some smart unpacking (use packing cubes in drawers so undies don't get mixed, ask for extra hangers so you can hang as much as possible, bring magnetic hooks to hang hats and bags on the walls instead of in closets, maybe leave lesser worn shoes (ie water or formal nigh shoes) in the suitcase and pull them out only when needed, then toss them back in at the end, etc)I can't imagine everyone not having enough space for things (and I overpack) Neesa 1 Quote

From Royal's perspective every passenger on board is an opportunity for more onboard revenue. A substantial amount of revenue comes from onboard spend. They have no incentive to have people book empty cabins for storage. They would much rather have a completely different person book that cabin and then they have another wallet on board to spend money, play in the casino, pay daily service fees, etc. So there is no mechanism to book an empty cabin for storage without putting a named passenger in that cabin and if that passenger doesn't show up, you would not have access to that cabin. With a no show it would go into an "available" status that they could move another guest into that cabin if that other guest had an issue with their first cabin. Neesa 1 Quote

Yes, but if the person does get thrown overboard just chuck the luggage along with them and you free up space! Win/Win WAAAYTOOO, Pooch and Sharla 2 1 Quote

No you cannot book a second cabin. You need someone booked in that cabin, each person can only be on one reservation. Quote
Cello56 Posted June 15, 2023 Report Posted June 15, 2023 Take a look at the cost of booking two suites. Sometimes two cabins each with 2 or 3 guests costs less than one suite with 4 plus an additional cabin for 1 where you will have to pay the double occupancy price. SemperMom and Neesa 2 Quote

If they are in your room while you order room service, I don't believe there are any caps on how much you can order at a time. So you can get something for everyone if you want. You may run into plate limits on the MDR dinner option but idk for sure since, if you had just gone down to the MDR you could get multiple entrees. Quote

Nobody is going to police into whose mouth the food goes whether that be a caregiver, a newly met stranger or the person who placed the order. Quote

TBH, if my DH didn't want to unpack & leave his stuff in the suitcase, I'd be thrilled - more room for me!!! Neesa 1 Quote
