What is all the paperwork I need to fill out?
Sunshine3601 replied to Minuet888's topic in Royal Caribbean International
There isn't anything to do at the port or general area. The terminal probably won't open up for new passengers until 10 am is, and even then you may have to wait to board. Maybe get some breakfast at the airport. You can do check in online via app or website usually 45 days pre-cruise. Pick the earliest time slot but no worries they haven't been checking them at Cape Liberty. Usually with 3 to 4 weeks pre cruise date you can print your luggage tags. If using the app your set sail pass will be on there, no need to print. Or you can print it when you print your luggage tags. The only actual paperwork you must have with you is everyone's passports or the birth certificate option with ID for in person check in at the terminal. I prefer Uber. Have Fun -
It started snowing around 6 am. Expecting 4 to 6 inches in my area. Going to leave for work after 7 and would love an early dismissal. I was suppose to be on Anthem 11 or 12 nighter to caribbean but cancelled then planned on being in Cape Coral and Gasparillo island leaving yesterday, but nope here I am in the snow and bitter cold temps tomorrow. Ugghh!!

Anthem of the Seas Couples Swedish Massage
Sunshine3601 replied to tennislvr8's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I have been to anthems spa on several sailings. I never hung after a treatment but they may let you sit in their lounge area. I know spa prices are typically at their lowest on embarkment day and can be a nice way to settle into your vacation. Enjoy! Note, they will try to upsell you with all kinds of products and future treatments. -
Yes, but why carry all of that? Cabins are usually ready between 1 and 1:30 pm. If you board early you will have to keep all of that with you. Plus elevators are very busy on day 1. Make it easy on yourself and check in a bag or a 2. We just carry our small backpacks onboard.

RCCL Aruba and Curacao excursions
Sunshine3601 replied to LivLove2Cruise's topic in Royal Caribbean International
For Curacoa, I recommend taking a walk thru the port and head to the floating pontoon bridge. https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-boostdish-us-revc&sca_esv=598681343&sxsrf=ACQVn0_3bVk_X7Cz9GrN56GTpG6e_i7HbQ%3A1705371818088&q=Queen Emma Bridge&ludocid=3711383108024288569&ibp=gwp%3B0%2C7&lsig=AB86z5ULxW40OlC1lHGKCJNWACel&kgs=2f739aaba0bf5ece&shndl=-1&source=sh%2Fx%2Floc%2Fact%2Fm4%2F2 Nice to explore the city area after crossing the bridge. Or taxi ride to Mambo Beach. Lots of places to rent loungers, snorkel, eat & drink. Maybe see if you can find someone on roll call wanting to share taxi to mambo beach. -
RCCL Aruba and Curacao excursions
Sunshine3601 replied to LivLove2Cruise's topic in Royal Caribbean International
For a first timer to Aruba I recommend their excursion called aruba highlights and Eagle beach. This will give a nice overview of the island with some nice stops at the Natural Bridge area, California lighthouse and a beach break at Eagle Beach. We did this tour years ago and gave us a good feel of the island and where we went on future visits. -
Service Charge on Spa Service
Sunshine3601 replied to silversneakers's topic in Royal Caribbean International
It is tip. Is it either 18 or 20% of the service you had done? If yes, then go back to spa mgr or guest services and ask for refund of the additional $35. Unless you want them to have extra tip -
We were pleasantly surprised the smaller tram we boarded near the ship also took us around the island. And we got picked up by a small tram outside the beach club that took us directly to the ship. Was great not having to switch trams at their tram depot.

Diamond drink vouchers

Smoothies or milkshakes -
88f sounds perfect! Can I stowaway in your luggage? I think you will like Barbados and St Lucia. We have never been to Trinidad & Tobago. Look forward to hearing your thoughts. Any excursions booked? We did a really fun catamaran sailing in Barbados and another time the pirate boat. Both were lots of fun. Snorkeled with sea turtles on one of them. St Lucia we did a sailing to the Pitons and then took a ride up to the volcano for mud bath and lunch at a plantation. Another trip we sailed to marigot Bay and hung out there for a couple hours. Lots of nice beaches too!

You can take a taxi or the water ferry over to Atlantis. I am sure once you off the ship and walk down the dock to the cruise terminal you will see signs for either the ferry or where to get taxi's.
