I think we all complain because the squeaky wheel gets the grease. The half and half/only once a day cabin service/outrageous price for a cabana/cold food complainers complain hoping Royal will change things.

Oh no. I’m so sorry to hear that.

sounds like the prognosis is favorable. Norway is way advanced in cancer treatments

that is interesting because he will join Capt Henrik Loy.  Capt Rob and Capt Henrik shared the Wonder for the first year beofr Capt Loy got called to the shipyard.

 

Wondering where that leaves Capt Johnny then?

Until Capt Johnny can present Royal with a clean bill of health I wouldn't look for him anywhere

State Department received application by mail April 28, approved July 5, received new passports July 10. Did not pay for expedited service.

OP, could you ask who the captain is? The concierge can tell you, and be brave and also ask when he started his rotation! TIA

they need to make money any way they can to pay those bonds and notes coming due

if you're going next year it may be too early to look at excursions

Is it possible to write the COUNTRY that the captain comes from?

I don't know where many are from, plus many live in the US anyway.

I agree I don’t consider it top shelf but I’m sure Royal does.

and BT is better than Ten High. On NCL Ten High was included with my Free at Sea but the love of my life Woodford wasn't. One time I opted to pay the upsell to have Woodford and it was an extra $19 over and above the price of the cocktail using BT.

We are on Mariner July 21st, so I’ll let you know if the captain is incorrect.

Thank you

Reprice it to what?

 

 

current pricing

please don't rely on this thread. Nobody is telling me who the master was on their sailing.

can't do extra gratuity on line. Even if you could I wouldn't trust the IT department to get it to the person you intend it for. Ergo, personally hand them cash (in an envelope available from Guest Services) with a smile and a handshake. Those that are huggers will hug.

no wonder I couldn't book an excursion.

Captain Rob was on Wonder last week (6/4-6/11)

maybe that was the end of his rotation
