    Kind of a clickbait article. All they did was stop selling full size liquor bottles to the cabin. That certainly doesn't do anything to limit alcohol consumption.

    Roatan is a popular stop on the western Caribbean routes. Labadee is in no danger of being abandoned either.

    Well sure, unexpected emergencies is one thing. But planning your vacation around leaving the ship early just doesn't make sense to me.

    I never understood why people would pay all that money for a cruise only to want to not enjoy the whole cruise
  5. smokeybandit
    Yes, these no testing exceptions are only for unvaxxed aged 12+
  6. smokeybandit
    However if your cruise has a stop in Honduras, Haiti or Colombia, you still need a test for unvaxxed 12+ https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/will-i-have-to-take-a-test-before-i-cruise

    Why not just take bigger bottles?

    They aren't obligated to refund port fees. I don't know what makes them decide to do so or not (could be written into whatever contract they have with the missed port).

    They really need to change the name of their newsletter to something that isn't one letter off of one of their newest ships.

    I don't know how you got OBC, but there's no limit to how often you can reprice.

    It's a very optional formal night now.

    RC loves passengers like you. Buying the packages while in a suite

    It's been back to normal capacity since March

    If it's been sitting there that long, the property could be deemed forgotten or abandoned. Removing it and giving it to RC crew merely helped return it to its owner. Besides, theft is the intent to deprive someone permanently of their property. Simply moving it doesn't constitute theft.

    Quick Bus goes back and forth from Seattle to Vancouver, including a stop at Bellingham

    But other than drydock, there's never a time, save for 1 hour on turnaround day, that there are no passengers on board.

    Not too big. I don't like Oasis class because it's too amusement park-like, but the size itself wasn't an issue.
  19. smokeybandit
    Yes, that's legit. RC uses Qualtrics for its survey outreach and they use the qemailserver domain to send emails. Here's one I've gotten in the past

    It happens. When major stuff needs fixed, they fix it.
  21. smokeybandit
    They're completely different restaurants with completely different expectations.
  22. smokeybandit
    I don't get why people want to make Labadee out to be some unsafe, scary place that people are risking their life every time they step on the dock. Heck even during the shutdown, people were spreading rumors that locals had overtaken the resort and trashed it.
  23. smokeybandit
    Quick, when was the last time gangs stormed those walls and invaded the resort? People forget unrest in Cozumel a few years ago when the ferries were being firebombed. But no one is concerned about safety there.
  24. smokeybandit
    "Private island" flows off the tongue much better than "private peninsula" though.
  25. smokeybandit
    Then Caribbean cruises aren't for you if the sight of armed guards is concerning.
