Sweety Posted June 23 Author Report Posted June 23 When will I know about my RUB? Either way I will get the double points. Quote
Neesa Posted June 23 Report Posted June 23 @Sweety now that it's in it can be any time. The one time I was awarded a RUB, it was one day before sailing, they have the ability to even award it on embarkation day. I usually hear at dinner or after on day 1 thanks but your bid was unsuccessful, so you should hear something but it's super random. In my case I was told I was unsuccessful and then a family had a canceled flight, so they canceled last minute and I was allowed the bid "win" WAAAYTOOO and Sweety 1 1 Quote
Neesa Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 It's me again! I'm curious as the booking page is only showing one 1 bedroom aqua suite on 14 available to book under the suites area. Does anyone know at what capacity this first cruise is sailing? Still can't book entertainment and with this only being a 3 night I don't want to miss my biggies, the ice show and the Aqua show. Maybe we won't need reservations? Sweety 1 Quote

Neesa Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 I just saw this on the app. If there is no tentative schedule I'm just going to ask the suite concierge if there's a welcome letter to shoe horn us in for everything. Then I'll work around that. Hoping for your RUB so you get the welcome letter also. Shows will probably be released closer to sailing, but I'm still crazy curious as to the capacity for the inaugural. If I ghost book 3 guests it doesn't take it. Only 2 to a cabin at this point. Anyone have any idea? Sweety 1 Quote

Neesa Posted June 27 Report Posted June 27 Okay, I'm ready for my 3 night sailing! Walmart had me covered. $6.00 roll back, woohoo!! Cabosh will carry it on for me! Ampurp85, asquared17, WAAAYTOOO and 2 others 2 3 Quote

Neesa Posted June 27 Report Posted June 27 (edited) I actually enjoy Walmart shopping. It feels better and hits different when I can pay less for something that costs more at Publix! Early in the day the deli is a ghost town, we are huge fans of their Honey Maple Turkey and Garlic and Herb chicken breast! I digress, Yes, I'm not sure if that's Chip or Dale but we cruised DCL exclusively while kiddo was younger and your guess is spot on! While Disney is in our past I still smile at my old school Disney " stuff" and memories. It's Chip! He has his name on his hat, gees! So happy to be back on 17! CK I missed you!

Neesa Posted July 5 Report Posted July 5 The Royal App is finally showing the Coastal Kitchen menu for this sailing. Everything seems in line with Coastal across the fleet. WAAAYTOOO, Sweety and OCSC Mike 3 Quote

Sweety Posted July 6 Author Report Posted July 6 I didn’t get the RUB. It’s okay. I still get double points. My colorful undies are packed. James asked why so many. I have three cruises to make prime. WAAAYTOOO, perfect match and Neesa 1 2 Quote
Neesa Posted July 6 Report Posted July 6 @Sweety how did you find out? Did it say expired? Did they email you? I was hoping you landed that upgrade. I wonder at what capacity she is sailing? Well I'm really glad you upgraded when you did, 6 points is so much better then 3! We will see you soon! * still no Royal Railway or entertainment listed yet. FYI I'm packed! I'm excited for this 3 night party. perfect match and OCSC Mike 2 Quote

Looking forward to reading about how you, @Sweety, and everyone else enjoy it during the tail end of mine. I’ll try to remember to ask my wife to message our Mason Jar server at some point to see if she’s actually boarding Utopia and working at that MJ. Sweety and Neesa 2 Quote
Neesa Posted July 10 Report Posted July 10 Does anyone know or has it been reported at what capacity the Utopia will be sailing to start? When I ghost book the selection is pretty much just guaranteed offerings. @twangster, @Matt, any thoughts? Sweety 1 Quote

I haven't seen them make any reference but it would be normal for some reduced capacity to start just to ensure positive feedback and to give the crew time to ramp up to full capacity.

OCSC Mike Posted July 11 Report Posted July 11 @Sweety, @Neesa, and anyone else... My wife is pretty sure our wonderful Mason Jar server from Wonder is indeed now assigned to Mason Jar on Utopia (not 100% though). If you'd like to request her, her name is Jocelle (pronounced JOE-SELL) and she's from the Philippines. If you do run into her, please tell her Cori and Mike say hi.

She's having some sort of issue with Royal accepting her medical clearance to go back to work so she's not able to join Utopia (or any other ship) for now. Sorry. Really hope it works out for her.
