They'll probably be the same as the past few years.

I too prefer the Quantum class. We've been on the Anthem at least 12 times and already have 3 booked on the Odessey when she comes to Bayonne. The WJ just doesn't work on the Oasis class. There's no people flow and never enough tables. They got it right with the Quantum class.

C&A. Status of diamond doesn't get you on earlier.

It really doesn't get you anything extra. You could book a 3/4 weekend cruise before then to get to emerald if you really want it.

We did a b2b on the Liberty this past September and they delivered our purchases made during the first leg on the last night of the first leg.

go on an airport ride

Keep in mind that their show is probably at the 90 minutes mark of the dinner service and most people have finished their dinner by then. It's nothing that I would purposely wait for.

As of Feb 2023, yes.

Keep in mind that the pina coladas are pre made and come from a bubbler machine. They were not made to order when I was there last year.

So if your category is sold out, there is no way to check for a price drop, correct?  I can no longer see any cabins in my category, so I guess it's just up to my TA to keep an eye out...and assume that if it's sold out...it's not dropping. 

Correct.

On the cruise you reach 140. Go see the Loyalty Ambassador during the cruise to make sure you're on the list.

Now I know why we didn't see our invitation to the top tier event on the Anthem two weeks ago. Thanks for sharing.

The carousel is no big deal. Once you get to your section, how long does it take you to get your luggage, two minutes tops? I think the money could have been better spent some place else.

I've been in IT for 40 years. Royal's IT is known for its poor performance,

Weird that the app still lists a B&J with times.

Changing the app is something that their IT department would do. And we all know how bad their IT staff is.

You're right about tasteless. I call the flavors white brown and pink because they sure don't taste like vanilla chocolate and strawberry.

Dress up night ?....is this mandatory?

No

There's really no dress code anymore.

Sorry, my bad. I am on two of the Jan sailings. My second, going out on Jan 29th has only 4 ports.

We are boarding Harmony Dec 24th at 1:00 pm. I was hoping the big rush at windjammer be over. Am I dreaming? We are a group of 12 (it’s why we are boarding so late) are there better options?

Don't try looking for a table of 12. Be realistic that you may not be seated near each other. 

I've seen it happen on ships that visit both Nassau and Coco Cay. If Nassau is the first stop,and Coco Cay second, bad weather in Coco Cay may force an overnight in Nassau if Royal can't find a suitable replacement. It's happened to me, even with the pier in place at Coco Cay.

If you're Diamond plus, or above, there's a reserved area on deck 5 of the Royal Theater for the shows there.. They hold the seats until 10 minutes before the show starts.

To all who responded with kindness, a big thank you. I'm guessing that genie went along with them because she didn't get her tip yet.

Try and teach the offending passengers right from wrong. After that fails wait for the next elevator and get on with your life. 

I did. If you read the entire post, you would have read that I did get the next elevator

I just have to vent about what happened while leaving the Anthem yesterday in Cape Liberty. My wife is a stroke survivor and gets on and off the ship in her wheelchair. When our number was called, we left our room and headed to the elevator. A half empty elevator stopped and all the people around us allowed us to get in first. As we were backing in, a really obnoxious woman and husband told us to stop and cut right in front of us. She stated she has priority services and we HAD to let them in first . There was still room for us but she ordered their genie to shut the door and had us wait for the next on.                                                                                                                Any thoughts?                                                               I know you can't fix stupid and ignorant.
