  1. You used to be able to put daily caps on cards via guest services. Not sure if that's still a thing or not.
  2. From a marketing standpoint, offering just internet might sway people who would never book a Royal Suite due to cost, but might splurge for one on an older ship.
  3. I would schedule 1-2 events a day and leave the rest of the time for people to be on their own otherwise it'll just cause tension, even among the closest families.
  4. I hope RC does start to extend those kind of perks into the older class ships.
  5. The excursion companies know what time the ships are there, so no need to do the math now.
  6. Always book when you're ready to book as prices can go up by the time you get on the ship, negating any OBC
  7. Different eating habits, times, sleep habits, drinking habits, all that can contribute. Look into activated charcoal
  8. Has there ever been thought to bringing some of the Royal Suite perks to Freedom and below class ships?
  9. If you felt OK starting this post then you should feel OK starting a roll call since that too is just a message board post.
  10. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/will-i-have-to-take-a-test-before-i-cruise
  11. I think you're on the right track, but I bet the website is using GMT. Otherwise it'd only be a day off for the last 3 hours of the days if you're in the lower 48.
  12. This much is true. Though now I have to pay for plastic grocery bags at my local Walmart when I buy lobster so it's close.
  13. Best bet is to not read reviews that always tend to skew negative. You'll have a great time on Liberty.
  14. Lobster Night is by far the most overhyped and overrated aspect of cruising. It's as if the only place people can get a lobster is on a cruise ship.
  15. The cruise staff will keep you well informed about time changes, if there are any.
  16. Mexico did buy 300k doses last summer, but I don't know if they've found their ways to private pharmacies.
  17. For purposes of picking a cruise, they're identical.
  18. Good point. The suite reception has not returned. I wish it would.
  19. Carnival (corporation) had a gentleman's agreement of exclusivity for Turks and Caicos. If you look at the port schedule, it's only Carnival Corp brands. But RC is working on making that part of their rotation and Mariner has a one-off stop there on its last cruise before dry dock.
  20. I see this asked about too often when one passenger can't get off work. American's are at such a disadvantage with the rest of the western world with getting time off and it's a shame.
