  1. Here I am wondering what kind of Artificial Intelligence rates RC may be offering. But in a way there is an all inclusive rate: Star Class suites
  2. Since it includes a good bit more than the beach club, and they already have the Atlantic price point to compare to, I'm guessing it'll be one of the most expensive things RC offers, other than cabanas. Also remember this is a for-profit venture for the Bahamas gov't, too.
  3. The burgers and onion rings are heated, too.
  4. Air2Sea doesn't contract with all airlines, especially some of the smaller European ones that have direct flights from Rome to Crete.
  5. Air2Sea doesn't decide flight schedules. They just book you on flights. Flying in the day of is a gamble. Flying international the day of is insane. You can't blame delays on Air2Sea. The Rome to Crete flight, the one via Finland was probably the first one that came up on their screen. You could have asked for better ones.
  6. You don't need foreign currency. In the Caribbean, dollars are king. In Europe, credit cards are king.

  8. Anyone know if Denzil Fernandes is still with RC?
  9. I've only been to Barefoot Beach, and there's no seaweed there.
  10. Silversea is a niche luxury line with tiny (in comparison to the typical RC ship) ships, not one that could replace Vision/Radiance class ships.
  11. I still wonder if RC, instead of building small, won't just buy a struggling cruise line that sunk a bunch of money into new (but smaller) ships in the last 10 years.
  12. Cruiseplum lets you search that granular, but the rates published there can be stale. It still gives you an idea on what to then go search on RC.com
  13. Other than completely changing the menus, not much has changed.
  14. If the agent said it was the same category but different price due to location, then it wasn't the same category.
  15. We always book the early seating since it meshes best with the rest of the evening, even though we don't eat at that early at home. Plus it's a cruise ship, your stomach tends to lose track of time anyway. I'd just stick with a fixed seating to better ensure your table of 10 can be accommodated.
  16. "Numerous social media reports have shared that Royal Caribbean has tested banning smoking at table games on select sailings of Freedom of the Seas." OK I need something a bit more concrete than that. Social media reports tend to have about a 50% accuracy rate.
  17. The 7 day Panama Canal cruises are still pretty reasonable. Which I guess makes sense since it's a niche market and homeport city with limited options for flights.
