  1. Recommended for Select Dining, though, and obviosly not needed for Fixed Dining
  2. We don’t have any email from any government agency; maybe that’s a Canadian thing
  3. It looks like the reports of the demise of power up points were premature…☺️
  4. There was definitely a time where if you booked a wine excursion they looked the other way when you brought wine back with you on the ship. But otherwise there was a table just inside security where you left wine purchased on shore to be delivered back to your state room on the last night. But this takes personnel and when the ships were understaffed they may not have wanted to assign people to this task so everybody could bring anything they wanted onto the ship. As staffing returns to normal levels, they may change back to stricter controls.
  5. With so many people watching for it, and the question coming up pretty much every single month, if and when it is reinstated in Florida you’ll see it here
  6. Let your cabin steward know and they will rustle some up for you and see that you are not charged
  7. And don’t forget that they serve mimosas and Bloody Marys at the Elite breakfast
  8. Maybe, maybe not. Unfortunately there’s no predicting whether they will take it or let you bring it on board.
  9. No. And the little stock of other Apple products that they do carry are a couple of generations old.
  10. Also I have to keep in mind that we did that muster on the first day when no one really knew their way around the ship very well. They could have made it easier to return to your muster station is my point. There’s plenty of place on the sea pass card to print D1 assembly station Deck 4. There’s no need to rely solely on a person’s memory, when is easy to create more reliability.
  11. I don’t think the e-muster should take the blame. We had all been to the correct assembly station on embarkation day, in person, but that was about a week ago and, as I said, it was St. Patrick’s Day. Three things would have helped that come to mind immediately. One would be that if the deck was listed on the SeaPass card as well as the assembly station it would have made it easier. Another would have been to remind people in the announcements which Deck to go to. For instance and this is not the correct listing I know, I’m just using it as an example, an announcement like this would have helped “Right now All guests are required to visit their assembly station. If your assembly station is A B or C go to deck 4, if it is DE or F go to deck five” Another thing that would have helped on this particular ship because of the odd traffic pattern on deck five where you either have to go through bionic bar or Izumi to get from one end of the ship to the other would be to have one-way traffic through those areas.
  12. 1. Since any scanner could scan any passenger, there was no reason to go from wherever you were to your muster station. ANY muster station would do. Elevators were a crowded clogged artery. Wheelchair passengers were particularly affected, being unable to simply take the stairs. 2. First announcement said all passengers had to go to assembly station. Later announcement amended to say that people in dining rooms did not have to, leaving those in specialty restaurants uncertain what to do. 3. The public address system was unintelligible where I was (Solarium.) 4. I don’t know how many non-English speaking people that are on the ship but it seems like many, mostly Chinese but other languages, too. I wonder how they could have gotten the message out better to these passengers. 5. Sea pass cards tell you the Assembly station to go to but not which deck it’s on. Both decks four and five are used for muster station on Ovation and lots of people went to the wrong deck initially, further clogging the elevators.
  13. Eventually all passengers and crew checked in and the ship is on its way. Was it a prank? Was it a drunk hallucination? A bit of flotsam or jetsam? No one knows.
  14. If you are looking for a balcony, be sure to book the sunset verandah category or a suite, or a porthole verandah; otherwise you will be in a room that has a window that opens, So don’t be fooled by the words “infinite Verandah”
  15. Just saw a news report online that says that the premier pass showed up for a brief period of time over the weekend on the Royal Caribbean site. People booked it and had to be told that it doesn’t exist, so were refunded their money
  16. Aqua class gets you Blu as your dining room. A lovely site and worth the extra money
  17. How do you know? Because you can have it with no symptoms at all, the only way you can know that is to test yourselves post cruise. Did you? Because no symptoms doesnt mean no virus
  18. Covid on Sihouette? We could similarly write “covid at the grocery store” “covid at the basketball tourney” “covid in the post office” “covid on the subway” “Covid at the office park” “covid at the coffee shop” if you leave your home, you take chances
  19. Even if you do it, they may ask you to come to guest relations at some point to register your credit card. No big deal either way
  20. So equinox IS open for Pubcrawls but you just need to make prior arrangements and perhaps pay a fee, yes?
