There is a combination shampoo & conditioner in the shower. Yes they have safes .

Thank you Sailor_Sally!

I will be in an superior OV next week!  I was trying to find old threads that addressed the following items:

-shampoo and conditioner dispensers in shower?

-safe in cabin?

-Tampa Terminal 3?

-I thought I remembered seeing a transportation service listed for Tampa?

Thanks for your help.  :)

Your images are pretty small when I click on them but I do see the shoe bag now. Great idea! I will pick one up.

Again, thanks for the tips. I hope you had a great time!

Thank you CathyandJim! YOU ROCK!! I wonder if cabin 9518 will also have a view in between the life boats. Things that make you go hmmm...

Couple of questions:

-Is the one side of the bed up against the window wall. It's kind of hard to tell in the picture.

-Did you feel much movement?

Thanks again!

I think perhaps folks are talking about two separate situations. Loss of OBC with cruise price drop and loss of OBC with drink package price drop.

Thank you, CathyandJim. I think I will also appreciate a little bit more space. :) Enjoy your cruise!

Have you used Nationwide insurance and had any experience with submitting a claim? I am weighing travel insurance options. I would appreciate any feedback in particular with claim response. One hopes they never need to use it but it's better to be safe and educated than sorry.

Thank you!

Well, first of all, your screen name is hilarious. Second, the insurance is called Allianz Travel Insurance, which I think is through RCI. My travel agent had recommended it, said it was very good coverage. It was $118 for the two of us. Since she did all the paperwork, I really don't know much more than that.

 

I see you also have experience with arm fractures. How long was your son in his cast?

Thank you for the information. :) I don't know the specifics of your son's injury but mine fractured both bones and required an ambulance ride and manual reduction. No surgery was required. Thank goodness! If my memory serves me right, my son was in an above the arm cast for 4 weeks. Then he was in a short arm cast for 4 weeks and finally they put him in a hard brace for 4-6 weeks. We were thankful that they gave us a second hard brace as we went out to GTNP and Yellowstone and did white water rafting and such mid August.

Again, wishing your son a speedy recovery.

Oh my! I am so sorry! I hope your lil' guy recovers relatively quickly. My son fractured both bones in the arm last summer. No fun! Glad you still get to take your trip at a later date.

This was a timely post as I was just researching trip insurance for an upcoming cruise. I could kick myself though now that I am outside of 15 day window of deposit. Anyhow, may I ask what company and plan you purchased?

Thanks!

I did purchase the refreshment package but it appears Diet Ginger Ale in the freestyle machines is hit or miss.

Thanks!

I believe you mean Patron. Yes they have Patron onboard. I am not sure about Diet Ginger Ale. Not sure you can bring onboard Soda.

Yes, pardon me. Typo while multi-tasking.

Thanks!

Hi there,

I was diagnosed with allergies to multiple foods several months ago. Since my go to drink has been Patron (made with Agave) with Diet Ginger Ale, when having a drink. Do any of you know if this available on Royal Caribbean, in particular the Majesty, or should I bring my own Ginger Ale on to have with another Agave product?

Thank you!

Thank you all for the feedback. I am going to give it a try!

Thanks for all of the great tips! They are much appreciated.

FYI...It also looks like MTD only lets one book between the times of 6 pm and 9:30 pm (bummer) so I still may stick with 5:30 pm traditional dining.

Thanks again!

FYI...to save many headaches, if you have everyone's booking number, you can do it all by phone and save yourself a lot of aggravation.

Good idea! Thanks!

Thank you, all! We do have 2 cabins of folks. Maybe I will keep 5:30 pm dining and just eat in the Windjammer 2 evenings after returning from port if we are even hungry.

I think you should be fine with the standard disembarkation, as long as you have luggage tags no later than 9am. You get off on deck 4, same deck as Guest Services.

Thank you, Bob! :)

agree. Which is a royal pain in the butt!

lol!

What do you mean each must be done one at a time, each cruise passenger or each day?

Thank you everyone for your replies :)

We are disembarking from the Majesty in Tampa for a 12:20 pm flight out of Tampa Int'l. Debating if we should self walk off at 7 am. I will have my 83 y.o. DM w/me. I think I can pretty well manage our 2 suitcases. We will be on deck 9. What deck do we get off of? Are the lines incredible crazy at 7 am?

It also looks like one can go to the front desk a day prior to debarkation and ask for early debarking due to early flight.

Which may be the better option, self walk off or the standard process?

Thank you!

Hi There,

Can any of you please shed some light on MTD? I am now able to select that dining choice in my Cruise Planner after one of my guests configurations is corrected. Are you able to make reservations for each day online or are you only able to select one time for the entire cruise? We have a couple of ports of call that arrive back on the ship later in the day than others.

Thank you for your feedback. :)

Thank you for asking about these cabins, Venicia. I asked on the cabin thread several days ago with only a couple of responses that said to go for it. So I did! Enjoy!

I booked portside. Is there a preference between starboard and portside?

Thank you!

What is the dress code for this event?
