Does anyone know if RCCL is offering the shorter cruises out of Galveston?

I have an insurance question. If one of the cabin occupants can't go on the cruise and uses her rccl insurance for cancel for any reason how will it effect the other occupant?

We have used Moby Dick 3x and have been very happy with the service.

We got it once. I usually play the slots. It was a great rate.

I like the sideways cabins.

Can the thermal suites be purchased by the day?

What is the ap called?

We were offered an upsell on our upcoming cruise from an outside to balcony for 179 pp.

Does anyone know when the current promotion will end?

Have real coffee, instead of the syrup based coffee

Steakhouse.

We were on the Emerald in Feb and loved it. The food in the anytime dining was great. We ate at the Crown Grill which was ok, not great and very very slow service. There were only a very few diners and ample waitstaff but it took too long. Our cabin was a bit worn and that was disappointing. I didn't think the cabin steward was very good. He left sponges on the dressing table, cleaners and brushes on the floor a few days.

I agree with other posters about food off the ship. I don't care to eat while on excursions. I have eaten lunch at an all inclusive resort excursion and was fine, but scrutinized my choices.

Did you get over your illness by the next day. If so, it was probably the food.

I wonder if he was the same steward we had on our last cruise. Which ship were you on?

Yes, you can. It is a very convenient location. We were aft Riviera last month on the Emerald. We had an inside and only drawback was most of the aft insides have wall bunks which are very intrusive when unused

We were also on the cruise and loved the shows that Printz did. He was so funny. We had no use for the other comedians that were on during the week.

Is there a charge for this type of service?

I am going to start using USAA for stock trading next month. We love the customer service and overall product they offer. I'm sure the stock investments will also be excellent.

Does the Emerald have the texting feature

Is there a cost for this?

Bayport is run very efficiently with very nice port employees....unlike Galveston who are very rude. The terminal is nice and easy to get to. The fog and wind problem is a negative for many travelers

Yes, there is a Catholic Church on the Main Street leading up to the terminal.

I'm not quite there yet but I don't believe any other line gives the Elite benefits Princess does at the comparatively early milestones of 15 cruise credits or 150 days sailed. And I also commend Princess for still using both measurements with promotion to the next level at whichever comes first, unlike many lines that now use only one.

 

Princess will remain my first choice as long as they continue the perk of the Platinum/Elite lounge before dinner each night and not switch to simply giving drink vouchers as Celebrity and Royal Caribbean are in the process of implementing (at least for their intermediate loyalty levels). From my recent digressions to each of those lines--which I plan to not repeat--it is clear that on RCI and X the perk is only about the booze itself where Princess offers you a great lounge (Skywalker's or similar) to chill out and have a snack with your drink in the hours before dinner.

Tell me about the lounge before dinner for Plat/ elite passengers.

We have never had a problem at the port in Houston. The port staff is courteous and friendly, unlike the abrupt and unfriendly port of Galveston port employees. The cruise line staff in the terminal are efficient and friendly at both ports....just a huge difference in port employees.
