Cruise for vacation

Practice it with me........ No, No, No - that's what you tell the kids on impulse buys.

:'):')

Cruise Only price today is $7,091

So either they made a mistake or you played a bit more than you realized. It normally takes 800 points to receive a $200 off certificate. It takes five dollars run through a machine to equal one point. (You can do the math to see how much you may have run through the machines). Of course you don’t have to lose that money - just play it.

 

 

Enjoy.

Well if OP is like me I keep playing when I win. I only cash out if it is more than $300

I have used the plan (ONCE), per everyone else it is very expensive. We were traveling with our two kids. The whole time on the ship I would get text message about the data but never the cost associated with it, by the end of the cruise I had an additional $600 in charges.

I have reservations at Izumi (Habachi) and Hooked Seafood

We did three last year...told DH only one (Mediterranean) this year, I am at two so far and one next year already booked. Cuba on bucket list waiting for more sail dates to open.

I booked our next cruise for Aug 2018 leaving from Spain in Dec 2016. I paid $5,687 (includes balcony room, flight, gratuities and transfer post) for three of us on the Symphony. I checked the prices and today for a balcony ONLY room not including anything else the price is $7,091. It really is a hit or miss and you have to watch the prices, even after you book they will adjust.

Is there a CK on the Mariner?

We sail a week after you. I have purchased dining

Thanks everyone for the great information.

I booked a JS on the Mariner

Other than additional space.....What is the advantage of having a junior suite vs a balcony?

I already checked in online...

When you call tell them you need to change your account to a cash account

Maybe I need to figure out how to do that!

Just call Royal and tell them you want to add OBC to your seapass account they will transfer you to the department. Then when you check in online just do cash account When you get to the ship and check they will ask for a card tell them you have OBC, it’s a cash account.

Depending on the length of the cruise we usually put money on our sea pass before the cruise in the form of OBC. Once we arrive the account is considered cash and we don’t give a credit card. If we put $100 per person we usually cash out at the end of the cruise, they are considered refundable

It’s funny how they can tell you on the ships but have no record in the main office. The ships have to get the information from somewhere it’s not like you sail the same ship all the time, the data is collected

I’m following, how exciting. Looking forward to August 26 when we are on her.

There is so much judgement, negativity and righteousness in this comment, it is painful to read. Heres a pat on the back ------> Do you feel proud that you would NEVER consider leaving them on the ship? Because honestly, no one here really cares what you would consider or not. Your comment has no relation to what the OP originally asked, except for being judgmental and attention seeking.

 

Also, you seem to be a psychic on top of it all. You seem to know exactly what this person, via internet, had in mind when planning his/her vacation, her morals and perspective on life.. wow.. that is a lot to know about a person you've never actually met. Let me ask you this. in your mind, does it mean that the whole family vacation goes to crap because the adults want to enjoy one excursion together for a few hours, without children? Does it make you weak to admit that sometimes, you need and/or want help? Does it make you a terrible, selfish, narcissistic fool because you would rather your child be in his happy place, than hot, cranky and bored on an adult themed tour?

 

I bet you're one of those people on board that complains a lot and has a negative attitude...

Hahhahahaha:'):(:(:(

Sounds like the family vacation was selected for the adults and not the family. I have done plenty of cruises with my kids and would never consider leaving them on the ship. That's why it is called a family vacation to enjoy the destinations together and expose them to things.

It's awful at 2pm but amazing at 2am.

I would have to agree with you...at 2:00 am it the best pizza around :')

Missing a lot of information. Not sure why they would not roll out a complete system, who does that rollout in pieces.

What's the name of the company you work for?

Read the blog

Yes, the quality of the food has gone done. I really don’t think it has anything to do with the ships class. It’s more a royal cutting back cost

Why would you need to "buy Euros" in the US?

I am buying Euros in the US for our cruise of the Symphony?? Is there a comment behind your question? Not sure what you mean by your question.

You are welcome.

 

But your memory is quite a bit different than mine. The MDR was good, but not that good. Never has it been high end restaurant good, especially on our first cruise in 2001.

 

Still, you make this sound like a new thing that we could have all ended. It’s not. Nor, based on the people we see there, is it that burdensome.

 

So don’t go. Or don’t sail, and save me money. I’m totally fine with the latter.

I think your memory maybe off. Again how you feel and how someone feels is their opinion it does not make your memory better than anyone else’s. I agree the food in the MDR has drastically went down due to the increase in speciality dining. I go to both, however I agree
