You will get the compensation offered. They won't change how it's paid out.

No announcement by Royal.

Advrnture seems to be the only ship so far. I find that odd.

When I say smaller ships it is smaller. I have never said less than 100,000 tons. I havecskwsys said that project Discovery is slatedvto be around a VY class size at 140,000 tons

I guarantee you 100% that Royal will build ships to replace Vision and Radiance class ships...Celebrity is not Royals market.

The simple fact is that the big ships cannot service many of the existing itineraries that Royal offers. As these smaller ships age out Royal has 2 choices. Either build new smaller ships or abandon many of their itineraries. My money is on the new ships.

You mention that 4 of you have Diamond status and above. The BOGO is only available for D+ and above. Not sure if that will change things

Any deck plan site will only use the deckplams published by Royal and they just show all walls as a straight line when on reality thry are not. Too bad they aren't like Celebrity that do show the notches in the walls.

Balconies still follow the same pattern as Oasis class ships. Not sure about OV.

Half or less.

If you want a great meal go to Chops and order off the Iconic Steaks menu. Wegu Filet, 32 oz tomahawk....

Absolutely call. If they give you a price for an upgrade that you like book it right then and there. Do not hang up to think about it and call back as you will likely be given a different price.

LOL, I have found just the opposite, I've lost track of how many times they have not charged me for my drinks on the island. Sometimes those written slips of paper get lost.

I know a couple of people who thoroughly enjoyed it. "Worth it" is entirely subjective. Do you dine at restaurants on land that are $200pp, if yes then nit may be worth it, if you avoid restaurants that have that price point on land then I would say just because it is at Sea it would not be worth it.

When the concierge sends you an e mail tje week before get them to make your reservations.
