Nice that the waiter apologized for the extremely rude couple. I figured that you were sailing in a full suite.

Need to start watching 2025-2026 deployments and then tracking prices. Most interested in Port Canaveral sailings

Is that the parking lot being paved? Thanks so much!!

Printed out statement page showing RCCL stockownership. Covered account numbers manually with a black pen and then re-scanned and uploaded with the electronic form. All cruises got the proper OBC.

Have requested beds separated for our last two cruises and it was done. Will be interesting to see if that's the case on the third one.

That was what I wondered about (bad pun)

We're one month out today

Some of the Port Authority employees have an inflated sense of their importance. They are increasing surface lot parking at Terminal 1.

We were told they were expanding surface parking and could see construction when we sailed in early August.

Port Canaveral has added surface spaces for Terminal 1

Good advice.

I finally forwarded the notice to RCI corporate office (Michael Bayley, RCI CEO) and one of the staff got back to me and told me that this was an IT glitch and I did not owe anything. I had no problems at the pier when I checked in. mbayley@rccl.com

I think the Champagne Bar will be replaced with a Tiki Bar.

The only thing that was "Amped" during Allure's 2021 drydock were the propulsion system and related systems. The drydock happened during the pandemic while cruises were on hiatus -- RCI wanted to save money and only did what was necessary. I liked that they kept the Diamond Lounge on Decks 11 and 12, which has great views because of the lack of slides. I was also glad they did not substitute the Bionic Bar for the Champagne Bar. We're sailing a back to back on Allure later this year and will enjoy the fact that these changes didn't happen.

Thanks for posting. Hope he returns in 2024!! 🤞

Thanks -- Utopia enters service -- July, 2024. We're sailing on her a few weeks later and then in December. Do you know who the other Utopia captain will be.

We sailed with him about 8 or 9 times on Mariner and Harmony -- he was the captain when we made Pinnacle. I hope all works out well for him for Icon.

We had to park outside once and we had to pre-pay before we could take a space. i think there was an attendant taking payment.

There are a few benches to sit while one waits for an RCI employee to handle a cruiser's scooter.

He posted in his Twitter feed that he and his wife did an RV trip. Hope that means that he is feeling well. I read that Norway has one of the best melanoma treatment centers in the world.

Thanks -- very helpful

Isn't Captain Gus going to Utopia?

Thanks -- which terminals are on the west side of the port?

I saw a picture on another social media site of a new parking garage being built. It seemed to be for Royal Caribbean's Terminal 1. Does anyone know about a new parking garage for Termina 1?

I did book a beach bed when it was $199 but the double price could be a deal breaker.
