We are currently on the post cruise tour from hell. No commentary at all. The driver never claimed to be a guide, just a driver. We were supposed to go to the Space Needle. Instead we went to an observation tower with no explanation. Just pulled up, told us that this was our drop off, he would pick us up in an hour and don't be late. Same thing with Pikes Market. We only had an hour and he dropped us off two blocks away. We barely had any time to look around. On the way to Starbucks he hit a school bus and broke the mirror off the bus. He didn't stop. Now we are waiting at the Starbucks for a replacement bus. His comment was, "Oh well, it happens". It is a good thing we have a later flight, but some people are worried since they have a 3 pm flight. We have friends on the other bus doing the same tour and they told us when we met at one stop that they are having a great tour with a great driver/guide. I have done other RCI tours and never have had an experience like this. Expensive tour. Who do I contact at RCI about this?

Some on our bus have now gotten off and are taking Uber to the airport.

This is the Seattle City Tour with Airport Drop Off.

Wow this sounds awful 😮

Drop an email to royalguestrelations@rccl.com If I’ve had any problems on a cruise they’ve been great and I think probably your best bet for post cruise problems too.

The offer sheet in the room was for the free Seattle service. There was no charge, your flight needs to depart after 12.

Contrary to last year some international flights were included.

Oh that’s disappointing 😢 our flight has been changed to 11.15am so I was hoping the cut off would be 11am and we would get to use it. We have the Key though so will just need to get off early and self carry.

Wow Hubbard Glacier looks spectacular.

Thanks everyone for all the awesome information and photos. We cruise on 28th June and cant wait.

Ive been on Anthem before and can’t wait to be back on a Quantum Class. 270 is my favourite place to be out of any ship I’ve ever been on.

What an awesome review, thank you! We have just booked our first MSC cruise on Bellissima after 12 cruises with RC and therefore our first YC experience. I can't wait now after reading your review!

Actually the 2 piers at Mallory square are pier M for small ships that is damaged and pier B for larger ships that is ok. The pier further in the back is pier OM in the Navy area. The only Royal ship affected by the damage is Empress and it will become an issue only on days with three ships in port. This will apply two times in January.

I’m due in on Empress on 1st January. Not sure yet what will happen 🤷‍♀️

Hello,

I think there are many that look upon the drinks package as less of an opportunity but more as a challenge. I came back from the Indy in May telling my TA never to accept a booking/enquiry from me again for an RCI three nighter.

Having said that, I wangled my way onto a TA's promotional 2 night cruise on Celebrity a couple of years back, and they were just as bad.

But whilst I don't doubt what has been posted thus far, what will the conversation be like on board when someone tries to buy a drinks package? Will they have to declare their nationality/place of residence?

Regards,

Cublet

I told my TA the same. I was on that cruise too, it was just a total booze cruise and the bars were rammed 6 deep. It was very “not Royal Caribbean”. We had friends sailing with us on their first cruise, I don’t know how it didn’t put them off doing another. It certainly would have put me off if it was my first.

I can totally appreciate why they’ve did this.
