I know it's too late now, but to the op.

  (And useful info for others)

I think I read your airfare is booked with Delta.

They have a risk-free cancelation policy which allows cancelation within the first 24 hrs after booking.

   Although you booked non-refundable , from what I understand ,if you're outside of that 1 day period,you may cancel and get an e-credit.   

  The credit can be used on a future booking for airfare.

If someone is required to get out of the pool every 30 minutes to re-occupy there seat for a brief time, then they are technically being prevented from being in the pool for hours. Just saying.

If someone gets out of the pool every 30 minutes just to "check" on their chair, do they really need it?

I live in South Carolina,  our CVS and Walgreens covid test is free,  even if you check for travel.

Not sure why mawvkysc's CVS is different.🤔

For the South Carolinians... if none of your local CVS have availability check in North Augusta. Depending on where you're located it shouldn't be more than an 45 min - 1 hr away, if you're willing to drive.

Had results in 30 minutes. 

I did schedule 2 weeks out, but did not stay up until midnight. Midmorning was fine with lots of availability. 

When looking at deck plans for the Oasis class ships, deck 14 housekeeping rooms do not appear to line up with housekeeping on other decks. Has anyone stayed on deck 12 under the white area on deck 14?

I'm wondering if there will be carts ,etc. noise overhead early in the morning.

And all this has to done within 7 days of the sailing.

This is misinformation,  no where on Royal Caribbean's website does it state it had to be done within 7 days of sailing. Read post #95 from their website.

on the Enchantment last week and it is 12.

"They are giving others the opportunity to pay for my perks. Thats is what I have issue with. "

From my perspective it seems you are paying for your perks by sailing with them for 20+ years.

I have been sailing with RCCL for about 23 years and have only had a couple of minor issues which were handled promptly.

I think some people (cruisers or not) get too worked up over small inconveniences and can't just  go with the flow and relax.

I am not accusing anyone of taking the drugs but am I the only one that wonders about the granddaughter stating her belongings were misplaced? 

To me that is a red flag , automatically placing blame on someone else.

If pills were missing I'd think it would have been noticed while  on the ship and should definitely  been reported at the time.

The $89 massages are usually on boarding day. This is when I book mine(only if it's 89)

I've seen time slots as early as about 1pm and as late as about 8pm.

If there are none available the allotted amount have been booked, keep checking though, I have seen them added back in.

SPOOKWIFE.

I'm with you, I like the new mattresses.

We were on Oasis for 2 weeks in June, I was disappointed there was a topper on the bed.My husband wouldn't let me take it off.

I'm a side sleeper by the way.

No problem taking your little ones. We've rented one before with our grandchildren.

They were 1, 2, 3, and 8 at the time.

On Majesty recently, D+, I received 30% discount.

It was on the bar receipt, but not listed in onboard benefits left in room.

I had a bartender print it for me on boarding day to verify.

Reporting back after sailing Freedom last week, the "mini-bar" was empty last week except for 2 bottles of 1 L Evian.

Back on the Freedom this week, we are only allowed to get the tall size . Double punch for any other size.

I forgot to ask about a discount as mentioned by LorraineP.

While on the Freedom 2 weeks ago my cabin steward said on the sailing after the one we were on they were emptying the coolers.

I'll know for sure Sunday when we return for the next sailing,that is, if it makes it back to Port Canaveral.

I would think it could be used on another ship, although technically probably not supposed to.

I thought of trying it when I return in October if I don't use it all this trip.

The card is good on any size.

You can get brewed coffee, hot or iced, such as : americano, latte, mocha.

Frappuccino IS NOT included.

I am on Freedom now. I purchased the punch card for coffee this morning.

15 coffees for $31. Plus gratuity which came to approximately 36.85.

I have not seen it advertised except on the digital signage in the diamond lounge.

My suggestion is to just ask at the cafe promenade, which is what I did, because we all know, the digital sign could be wrong.

It was the paper punch card and not a "swipe" card.

Is the 10 drinks for $70 offered as well as the coffee card? If so which day did the offer begin?

Thanks for your reports.

I have a cruise booked and would like to use 100,000 points for the $1000.00 discoint.

Will this cover the total cost? Or just the cruise fare?

Will I have to pay taxes and fees?

If I have added prepaid gratuities can it be applied to cover that cost also?

I am sailing Jan 15, 2016.

I have had the same thing happen to me, an excursion is not listed until closer to sailing date.

Also, the reverse, an excursion originally listed will no longer be available.

I assume it has to do with confirming with their vendors.

I have a cruise booked next month that ports in Dominica.

When I am logged in it lists a whale and dolphin excursion for $79.75.

The description is as follows:

Overview

Join a welcoming crew on the search for whales and dolphins off the coast of Dominica. With the quest underway, guides discuss the habits of these sea mammals and the efforts to protect them. The engines are shutdown about every 20 minutes for hydrophone checks, with guests able to listen for whale clicking and dolphin whistling. Sightings are not guaranteed but 22 types of cetaceans have been sighted in these beautiful waters. RO18

There is also one for the rib boat which is 109.75. FYI
