No advantage other than not having a cc bill to pay t the end of the cruise

It gives you peace of mind that you dont need to worry about during your cruise.

I had one of these sealed in celophane wrap from one of our prior cruises.. i cant see any micro chip at the bottom etc, but is this one of the cups that can be used in the pop michines?  (not our photo)

Pina Colada without the alcohol is really nice

In the Theater for nightly shows, where do they place the people that are in Wheelchairs and Scooters?

We got one a couple of weeks ago on the Anthem and were surprised how high quality they are.  We opted for the Bud Light version.  Don't leak and held our 6 beers and ice as we spent our day at coco cay.  Would definitely do it again!

Dan

would you have a photo?

My husband has two. One from our very first cruise on Oasis in 2012 and one from our most recent cruise on Odyssey this year. They are decent quality, keep beer cold and they don’t leak 👍

Back when he bought the first one they refilled it for $5 a beer. No longer discounts on refills unfortunately 🙁

The new one has a comfy padded strap for carrying on your shoulder 😎

could you attach a photo?  im curious how close it is to the drawn rendition?

Hi

Has anyone ordered the Royal Caribbean Cooler bag for $23.99 with 6 waters that is listed in the Gifts & Gear on the RCCL website?

I was trying to downsize how much I had to bring on board as we like to have a cooler for the beaches.

You can also get 6 beers but that's $20 more.

It looks nice but so does a lot of things on Amazon.

i just bought it for our upcoming fall cruise

Anyone have a photo of the room service menu?   just curious, is there anywhere on this ship to get deep fried wings?

thank you..

Has anyone had experience with topical use of CBD for joint pain? 

yes..i found it didnt work for my knees

can someone tell me if these cabins have a sofa?  does anyone have a photo?

i used to enjoy the little white dish in the bathroom that had samples in it..toothpaste, floss, nose strips etc..a nice treat to find..  i do also miss the mint on my pillow at night.. 

We cruised out of Fort Lauderdale in 2019 but when I went today to look for one, I didn't see any out of Fort Lauderdale..   Does anyone know if this is a temporary thing?  or permanent?

Which cruise lines still sail out of Fort Lauderdale?

What a great thread!  I’m in agreement with all these things.  It’s time for some fun!

 

in the spirit of the thread....

 

I miss towel animals.

I miss knowing that my phone won’t work or IF it does that it’s ok not to answer.

i miss exploring that first day.

I miss mini-golf that is nearly impossible to play due to wind. Lol

i miss trivia games

i miss the silly “solid gold plastic ship on a stick”

I miss whatever adventure each port brings.

I miss reading reviews here on Cruise Critic

i miss the certainty of KNOWING my cruise will happen

I miss dressing up for elegant night and feeling special

I miss sing alongs

I miss afternoons reading in a deck chair with water in every direction 

 

Fingers crossed that I get to sail in September.

I forgot towel animals and trivia!    I miss those too  🙂

I so agree with all of these!  We travel a fair distance from Saskatchewan Canada for our cruises so it is always an adventure.  

 

I miss(ed) the planning most of all I think LOL as others have mentioned having something to look forward to, to learn about, to dream about helps a mental state so much.  We have our first of two booked for Feb 2022 and then Sept 2022.

 

But a few of the items that DH and I talk about that we miss:

• Miss the fun of the casino - slot tournaments!
• Drinks before dinner in the atrium bar
• The ability to do it all or nothing at all and both are the right choices

I could go on but honestly I am getting misty thinking about it.  We have made lifelong friends on these cruises and the memories and experiences just cannot be beat.  I cant wait to read all the amazing trip reports once you all begin again in July!!  So anyone on the first cruises please overwhelm us with the details and pictures and stories!!!  Enjoy it for all of us who can't quite get there yet!!!

We're from PEI. so I know what you mean.. its quite the distance for us too  🙂

I miss cruising!   I really do..  There are many things I miss about cruising.. and here are a few..

 I miss sail-away -     I miss watching the ship as it pulls away from the dock..

I miss formal night -    I miss the lobster dinners.. maybe next time I'll have two ..  

I miss the dancing servers -     I miss clapping along with them as they swirl their napkins around and dance and have fun..

I miss turn-down service  -   I miss coming back to my cabin after dinner and finding my blanket has been turned, down and my ice bucket has ice..

I miss chocolates!   -   I miss the excitement on my face seeing a chocolate on top of the next days Fun Times..  it wasn't the best tasting.. but something magical made it special..

I miss port days - I miss waking up, going onto my balcony, and seeing we arrived in port.. 

I miss the hairy chest contests -  I miss watching my husband lose each time.. lol

I miss seeing my cabin Steward  -     I miss hearing them say "good morning Miss Maureen"    it always made me smile.. 

(pre - 2018)  I miss the little samples they would leave in the dish on the bathroom counter..

There's soooo much I miss about cruising!     What do you miss the most??

we are booked to sail in October.. keeping my fingers crossed it doesn't get cancelled.   But if the cruise is still a go, I have worries..  buffet lines.. do I really want to touch that spoon handle that the 40 people ahead of me just touched?    Diningroom.. do I really want to sit at that table for 6/8 ?   and same for the Shows.. do I really want to rub elbows with whomever is seated next to me?  I'm disabled and in a wheelchair, do I really want to get on that elevator with 8 other people?   yikes..   I'm going to assume all cruise lines are using these precious days ahead in their boardrooms solving these dilemas..  but I wonder how?

This is NOT TRUE.

Your price is locked on the FINAL PAYMENT DUE DATE, not the date you make your final payment.

so how would someone be able to tap into the lower price?   do you have to file a claim for it? (seriously asking, this is our first Royal Caribbean Cruise line cruise coming up and I am only familiar with Carnivals lower price policy where there is an online form you need to fill in to get the lower price..   how is it done with this cruise line?

Is lobster served on formal night?

thats what I remember  now!   you can't "walk"  to/from when at the navy base..  

huge thank you !
