We're D but got the vouchers anyway. Does that come with C&A or room category?  The other thing that we have NO idea why we got was the "artisan cheese plate" which is always on the MDR dinner menu. Never asked for it but it started showing up every night. Especially like the fig chutney that they put on it. TOO much food though along with rolls yet. 

The vouchers come from C&A status.  Our waiter started bringing cheese plates and an extra dessert for the table on about day 3 thru the end of the cruise.

At Cafe Latitudes.  My vanilla lattes and then the caramel macchiato were included in the D+ vouchers. Yum!

 

Interesting, my wife was charged when she got hers on our 5-17 March Enchantment cruise.  Maybe things recently changed. 

So are you saying that the muster procedure should be enhanced to require the passengers to demonstrate their ability to put on the life vest? 

Cruised in September, November, had 2 cruises booked in January that were cancelled due death in family, 3 in February, 1 in March and will be on a cruise on 8 April and 18 April

App is on a tablet that does not have phone service.  It works off my house WiFi and I think it will work off the ship's service but will it work in the terminal?

Just take a screen shot of your SetSail pass at home then show the picture at the terminal.

We think this is the ship that has run aground. They are the same company that got stuck in the Suez Canal.

Is it the Ever Forward

Do you take a computer or tablet with you?  You could download the app onto your PC or tablet.

 

If you have anytime dining, then the app is great for checking in for meals in the MDR.  Check in from the room and your table is assigned and ready when you arrive at the MDR.  You can check in from the cabin and leave the phone there.  

 

I can't speak for newer ships, but the hub app was needed to check your folio, because the TV on the Pride did not do it.

There were two kiosk (piazza cafe and casino) when I cruised in September that I used to check mine. 

Forgot to mention we went to guest services on day two and got paper copies of the Funtimes for the remaining six days of the cruise. 

We cruised on the Carnival Pride out of Baltimore without using phone.

We had printed copies of documents for check in and things went smoothly.  The only problem we ran into was checking in for Yourtime Dining; we had to wait in line to check in then had to tell them that we would need paper menus.  The first two nights when we asked for menus the wait staff would point to the table display card and tell us to scan the QR code then when I told them that we didn’t have a phone they would have to walk back to the checkin stand to get menus. On the third day I started telling them I needed paper menus when I checked in. 

From one of the cruise line website:

How to calculate which days to take your test:

• Vaccinated guests: If you are setting sail on a Saturday, and you need to take the test no more than 2 days before, you can take your test on Thursday or Friday. You could also take it on Saturday morning if necessary — of course, we don't recommend waiting until the last minute.

@newpherchris

They still want you out of your cabin by 9am the last day.

Just got off a 7 day cruise.  The only negatives I encountered were the precruise testing requirement imposed by the CDC and having to wear a mask when moving about the ship. A couple places on the ship required a mask at all time (theater and comedy club).

A general rule don't believe everything you read on the internet...... and sometimes the newspaper

 

What next all the google reviews are real...????

 

Saw one guy on google who reviewed all the local police stations, then the pyramids....lol  

So am I suppose to believe this or not?

We will NOT be taking the covid vaccine ever. 
I truly hope that they do not make it mandatory for cruising. 

So I guess the answer to the survey question would be never?

In late January when we sailed on the Summit Southern Caribbean  itiniary when re boarding the ship on one of the islands we had to show our photo ID and cruise card. I'm trying to remember which one but can't at the moment.  My husband probably will I'll have to ask and report back. 

We always take our Drivers License when going ashore but we're suprised that we actually had to show it. 

Did the Summit stop at St Kitts? I had to show photo ID  and cruise card both times I went ashore there.  

I don’t know when you are/were going but we went in Nov and getting from Fredericksted to Christensted and return is really simple.  Once you come straight out the gates there are several vans and a booth that you pay $16 round trip per person they drop you in Christensted and told us the first van left from that spot at 1130.  There was another representative that remained there if we had any questions and kept track of who went back first.  They made it pretty easy.  Best of luck.

Absolutely. I love it when people say that not everyone has them. My parents who are 81 have both smart phones and computers (yes more than one) and know how to use them. I know a lot of people in their 70's and 80's who can and do have and use both.

I have a computer which does not have a camera. I don't own a cell phone. If your parents are 81 there is a good chance you are older than me.

I don't spend much time in my cabin so I book interior cabins.

I would call the claims contact number and ask.

There aren't any Royal cruises available after April 2020 at this time.

The slippers were given to me after my pedicure, they had NO traction and I was very careful walking by the pool deck avoiding wet spots, when I fell face first.

So you realized that the slippers were a potential hazard before you fell but choose to use them anyway. This is RCCL's fault?

We carry ours in our pill carrier always having a few extra days. I also take a picture of the Rx with the pill next to it to have just in case of any questions. I never thought about taking a picture of my glasses Rx though I’ll have to do that!

I can’t take Bonnie due to other meds I take so I bring ginger candies with me. Had to use them once ate two or three and some ginger ale felt much better. The cruise staff always recommends green apples also.

Obviously the Captains don't think their salaries are low.
