Muster locations on Oasis class ships? E3

Hi Sis, we stayed at the one downtown near convention center. Here is their website link https://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/tpaeses-embassy-suites-tampa-downtown-convention-center/ Good location. About 10 min drive to cruise terminal. We had waterfront view. Waterfront is nice area to walk around and grab food and drink. Decent little bar/restaurant in the hotel too. Also the trolley stop out front of hotel was nice to tour the area and head to Ybor to wander around and/or eat and drink. Overall rating 😊 I would stay here again.

Is The Key, VIP access in RCL worth it?
Sunshine3601 replied to AGE_Texas's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Most people say it's only worth it if price is is similar to daily internet price. And nice lunch on boarding day. Keep in mind that every person in the cabin must buy it. When comparing, Would you buy internet access for your children? Embarking without it is pretty easy. Usually onboard in about 15 minutes. Disembarkment can be a bit hectic so having the Key may help. -
Good Morning Everyone, I had an extremely busy work week. We hired 3 new employees and was busy with their initial training. One girl that was interviewed while I was on my cruise has some issues and most likely will not work out. Then I had a dinner meeting with a previous employee who wanted to discuss some events / concerns about why she resigned. Shame she didn't bring these to my attention while still working there but good to know now to prevent those issues from happening again. We had quite chilly weather this past week (nothing like the teaser weather the week before). Yesterday was just plain ugly with chilly downpours from about 4 am to 3 or 4 pm. Today is sunny and temps should be in the 50's this week. @BonTexasNY Happy to hear your hernia surgery went well and hopefully your recovery is going well too! 💐 @firefly333 I hope your recovery from catarect surgery is going well. You are probably getting tired of those eye drops. Eric seem to have a lot of the drops run down his face instead of in the eye. Sad to hear about Princess Kate and King Charles both having to deal with cancer issues, I am sure they have the best possible care to achieve favorable results. 🙏 @Husky1987 Haven't seen any recent posts. I hope everyone is doing good and everything is progressing nicely with your home renovations from the fire. @h20skibum Your Granddaughter is definitely is a very talented. Beautiful drawing. @George C Your music cruise sounded amazing. Enjoyed your photos especially the design your room steward created on your last night - beautiful display. @TravelGirlinDallas Loved your photos of DC. Glad to see your posts and that you had a nice trip with decent weather. Andrew is quite the handsome young man. DC is such a beautiful city, especially in the spring with the cherry blossoms blooming. Happy Days to All!

Some of the workers in the shopping area live on Berry Island and take the ferry. I know the girls that do braiding do this everyday. And they told me Royal took good care of them during covid shutdowns.

Recent Experiences with E Gift Certificates
Sunshine3601 replied to CookieDiva's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Just make sure you redeem asap if using for your sailing in 2 weeks. They are strict about the timeline to process. I received one for Christmas and forgot about it. Then I tried to redeem a week or so before my cruise and was told unable to process that quick. -
Speciality Dining Packages
Sunshine3601 replied to Bellamariya's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I did not see any onboard dining specials on my cruise 2 weeks ago. Offers will definitely vary per ship and the restaurants bookings. Maybe book one or two lunches with the cruise planner sales. Lunch menus are very similar to dinner menus but usually half the price. -
Mobility scooter hire on Anthem of the Seas?
Sunshine3601 replied to Frapaccino's topic in Royal Caribbean International
True, with everyone leaving at the same time there can be a wait for wheelchair assistance to disembark. I think we reserved 830 and were off before 9 am -
Mobility scooter hire on Anthem of the Seas?
Sunshine3601 replied to Frapaccino's topic in Royal Caribbean International
When my DH needed a scooter he was told he could ride it down to the waiting area for wheelchair assistance and leave the scooter there instead of the cabin. Many others did this too
