I managed to get into both Oct 2017 and June 2018 booking and can also see that the drinks package is now available to purchase for 2018 now as well 363 days out.

119 to Oasis

363 to Harmony

The deluxe drinks package would now cost me 15% MORE than what I paid a while back for our Oasis trip in Oct, must have got a great deal when I bought it.

Bob is correct again. These were scanned from the menus left nightly in our room. They were the same as we were given in the MDR.

The Barefoot Beach cabanas are for Grand Suite and above and are as far as I know booked via the concierge or genie prior to boarding. I am waiting to book one as well for my Oasis sailing in October.

Sounds like school holidays to me

I have not been on Navigator but unless you were asking for premium spirits I would think that you will be well within the price per drink. The upper limit is normally for cocktails not a normal mixed drink.

The price you see for the package will normally be +18% tax.

If the drink you order on-board is less that the package price per drink $12 or $13 depending on which vessel, then no you do not have to give a tip as it is already included. If your drink is above the limit you pay the difference + tax

Harmony in June 2018

He mentioned that later in the year he was moving to Serenade down in Australia but I can't remember if he said when his tour ended on Rhapsody, sorry.

Thanks Bob

I have now added the departure details as well as the Officer list and the Teen club 12-17 program.

Captain Johan was great and very helpful, Dan Dan the cruise director was brilliant, I don't know where he gets all his energy from.

Here are the cruise compasses and MDR menus from our Western Caribbean sailing on Rhapsody of the Seas from the 8th to 15th April 2017

We were on Rhapsody last week 8th to 15th and I would agree with what bcarney said. It was ok for emails and the likes of Facebook but one problem I did have was we could be sitting in the Schooner bar for example with full wifi signal but was unable to join the network for some reason, the next time it would work OK. We were 3 in a cabin and each had our own connection so it wasn't a case of one of us having to log out to allow another to join.

Looks like we are on the same sailing. I paid £28.40 which at the time worked out to be about $34.

I know that when my DW cut her head open on Anthem last year when the medic arrived to take her down to the hospital that he had a card that over-rid the elevator and it brought one directly to the floor they were on and then directly to the hospital deck. Not sure if the elevator displayed priority on its display or not.

Rhapsody I bought in September and Oasis in October last year for my upcoming sailings. If I recall the dollar rate was about the same as it is now maybe 1.25

It's not a bad price, I bought it for Rhapsody for £33.88 and Oasis for £37.26 both for 7 day sailings. Both prices +18% gratuity

I've seen the drink package discounts come and go, well after our cruise was booked. However, I don't know if this is the same for UK bookings.

It is the same in the U.K. Just need to keep checking to see when the discounts are offered. I got a great offer on the drinks package a couple of months after we had booked.

I have a question about the Barefoot Beach Cabanas. My hubby and I are in a Grand Suite and will be able to have access to Barefoot Beach. We have others traveling with us that are not in suites. Can I reserve a cabana at Barefoot Beach and our friends have access?

I far as I have seen yes your friends will be able to get access as well. I believe you let the attendant know their names and they will be allowed in up to the max 6 per cabana.

For me at that price it is a no brainer it equates to 4 frozen drinks a day @ $12 + tax each never mind if you have any fresh fruit juice or coffee's. Can't help on the protein drinks as I don't recall seeing them but to be honest I wasn't looking for them.

Managed to get a GS on Oasis this October for £210pppd at todays exchange rate works out at $252pppd

It's one thing to have buggy interface but a completely different one to have out of date information. I just clicked on a link for up coming events and the only thing there was about an on-board poker tournament that the closing date for was March 2010.

Now I wonder if I can place a bet on who will win. :-)

Thanks Bob.

It's the western sailing we are on, Roatan, Belize, Costa Maya and Cozumel. Will find out in just under 4 weeks time when we get there but the DW was hoping to book specialty restaurants. I'm guessing it would be night 2 and maybe 6.

Been looking and haven't been able to find the answer, which nights are classed as formal on a 7 night sailing?

We missed The Gift but did go to see We Will Rock You it is great. We seen it in the West End in London and it was every bit as good and even had some of the same cast members in the show on Anthem. Would go and see it again with out a doubt and as said previously stay for the encore.
