Yet another Royal Up question
ShillyShally replied to sadiwest's topic in Royal Caribbean International
You will get updated cruise documents with new tags, yes you can arrive when you want, and yes, you'll be billed the upgraded gratuities BUT I'm not sure if they simply offset it from the bid or not - I couldn't figure it out when we got the upgrade on our cruise last month but my updated docs showed I had paid the correct gratuities so no idea on that one! Congrats though, enjoy!! -
Coco Beach Club on CocoCay- worth it?
ShillyShally replied to Sigyn's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We had no problems eating at the beach club, they only brought the vegan starters (double portion, which wasn't needed since it's a lot of food) and a vegan burger with grilled veggies and the fries. The bun fell apart but it was all really good! -
Change to Sky Junior Suite Benefits
ShillyShally replied to Ourusualbeach's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Agreed, especially on ships that don't have CK and a JS doesn't give you suite lounge access. The cost even on those ships between balcony and JS is significant enough wifi wouldn't break the bank at all. -
It works, they also have a line for those with reservations - use it even if you're trying for an earlier/later time but have a reservation for an alternate time since they just pull you up and seat you then! We had no issue on Mariner doing this.

Yes, another document/naming question
ShillyShally replied to S.A.M.J.R.'s topic in Royal Caribbean International
As long as she brings B - the bridging document she could wait on the name change on her passport. BUT if she has the time and wants to make it smooth overall, she should also do A. -
meet and mingle still "paused" why?
ShillyShally replied to sisocialworker's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I had every intention of doing the sail away meet and greet but we landed at Playmakers and met a great couple we were having fun chatting and getting to know. I always plan such activities loosely, because some days they work and some days they don't. I had been active in the group so was sorry not to meet people but it was one of our best cruises so no regrets! I was happy not to be recognized though, I am not that memorable I don't think but my husband still laughs about the time we were on a cruise many moons ago and started talking to a group near us at Quest and when they put 2 and 2 together they said "YOU'RE ShillyShally?" No idea what reputation I had to them but my husband isn't buying that story either lol! -

ShillyShally replied to sisocialworker's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Yep, they had a few meet ups scheduled for our last cruise on the FB group. I thought I might even go, until relaxing and thinking about doing anything other was not of interest 🙂 But reports were those that went had a great time! -
Ha, like knowing an ex can get social security on your benefit if they qualify. Doesn't impact the benefit for the primary person but I've talked many off the ledge who were mad about it!

Halloween Cruise planner sale
ShillyShally replied to Tree_skier's topic in Royal Caribbean International
You inspired me to check but no changes since last week for my cruise for Oct 24 - Key still $32.99, Voom $19.99, DBP $74.99... It's a 9 night with ports we know we'll be getting off at so we may not bite on DBP this year, definitely not at current B1G1half. -
HAHAHAHA, can totally relate - this was us last cruise, and now I'm suite (GS or higher) or bust!
-
This is my hope for next fall - we have a suite gty but expect of course to land a JS, so hoping we can Royal Up to GS or higher since right now even picking our own cabin is $4k higher and a GS $7.5k higher, heck even the suite gty is $2.4k higher than when we booked!

Harmony of the Seas, Stateroom 3806
ShillyShally replied to Cam Dizzle's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Are you sure it isn't 3860 that's part of a connecting set? Those are larger according to their deck code. -
Royal Up benefit question
ShillyShally replied to Cruisin'4Us's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Nope, we had a JS and royal-upped to a GS - got all the perks as if we booked it straight 🙂 Now are spoiled! -
Royal Up benefit question
ShillyShally replied to Cruisin'4Us's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Grand Suite only. But if you book a cabana on barefoot beach you can also get access regardless of cabin booked. -
Can one parent travel with their child on a cruise?
ShillyShally replied to xeriod's topic in Royal Caribbean International
It's worth bringing something in writing and notarized where he acknowledges and signs that he is aware of the travel. They may never ask but if they did it can get sticky quickly! -
Thank you!! Appreciate you sharing - I expect I’ll have a similar view should we sail but many of the positives definitely sound appealing!
-
I'd like to try Quantum class but haven't had one align right yet!
-
Agree, it's why I prefer the Voyager and Freedom classes. I'll certainly sail the Oasis class or higher in the future but likely only if booking the whole family.

16 years 🙂 I sailed on one of her first few weeks in 2007 and 3 more times since. 5th time planned for next year and can't wait to see her again!
