We went to that Margaritaville last year while on Freedom and I made myself go off the high platform at the pool. Due to fear of heights I didn't actually jump but sat and pushed myself off! At little embrassing but I did it.

Will it be just you and DH or are kids in the equation. We were in the Haven and the dining area was nice. But the Haven area pool and hot tub was taken over by kids. The parents sat in the lounge area hanging out with their other adults and let the kids take over the place. The staff was worn down from what I saw.

Thanks for the report. We will be boarding FOS in exactly one week using the Key. Like you it was only a couple dollars more than Zoom. Did you use the key to exit off the ship? Wondering how early they start the send off breakfast.

Looking to see if anyone else who has sailed or will be has had this experience. Sailing on Freedom 4 night last sailing in August. I called to make dining reservation at Chops and Giovannis for nights 3 and 4. Chops is not available at all on either nights and I got Giovannis for night 3. I asked if any resturants were available for night 4 and they had no availability. When I go into my cruise planner both nights are available for all times but the rep is not seeing that. But I can not make the reservation online myself the system says there is something wrong with the credit card on file. I changed the card and still not working. So it seems RCCL is holding back the availabilty to pay a little more to get the times you want so you are forced to make the reservation when you are on the boat at a higher price? Also they have to be holding the times because of all the people who book Chops +1 or the UDP. Its a little frustrating cuz I didn't want to spend my time going to a resturant and hoping to get the time I want, the paying a little more is less annoying cuz I just want to get the reservation completed now.

DH card was destroyed in the wash. The state of Pennsylvania does not replace the actual card but sends out a copy of your immunization records. Is this gonna be an issue at check in?

Looking at the Chops + one option in the planner and it gives a choice of day 1 or day 2 and dining times. We are on a four day cruise and would like to do specialty dining on day 3 and 4. So this offer is only good for day 1 or 2?

Great detailed trip report, much appreciated! Thinking of going on FOS this August for the Mon - Thur leg.
