I hope you and Paul stay well and enjoy the rest of the cruise! We cruised as much as we could after the restart and never got sick.

I'm enjoying your review and love the beautiful pictures!!! Thanks for sharing. We are booked on Explorer for December. Still hope to sail with you both again some day. Glad you are having an awesome trip;)

What is the appropriate tip for the casino hosts?

Yeah!!! I'm glad to hear I will get to see Mama Mia three more times this year;) We're on the same b2b. Look forward to meeting you.

Allure has been my favorite ship for years because of the entertainment onboard. I love Mama Mia! I have sit through it repeatedly and loved it every time. It does seem that Royal is cutting cost everywhere they can. Oh well, I'll still enjoy the cruise and look for the triple red hot machine in the smoking area of the casino;) Thanks for that tip! We're booked on Allure for a b2b (4+5) and another short cruise, but I hope to get another offer to make that one a b2b also.

Absolutely! That's always my luck:(

Yes please!!! We all want to know;)

Thanks for the review! We're booked on her in December. I've been thinking about making it a B2B and after your review I'm going to do it. What was hitting in the casino? It's fun when you can win some to play more. We loved the casino on Wonder. I gave back my winnings, but got a lot of points and had fun doing it.

We did this last year and really enjoyed it!

Nice list! The only 7 night on my offer is for Adventure and we're booked on her in September. We camp in the summer months instead of cruising. I'm hoping for another offer for December to make Explorer a B2B.

I received the email yesterday confirming my status and the free offer was posted on their site around the same time. Did anyone else get the "June Jackpot" offer last week? There are only 7 ships listed, with only one 7 day offer, but I believe it's for me and a companion. That gives me hope for future offers. I'm not interested in any buy one get one offers!

Thank you!

I have a question, please. Does anyone know if I can use the trade in value of my offer to book a second cabin for my immediate family?

I called today and booked another free offer. The representative that helped me confirmed that you are correct! She said they have had a lot of comments about the VAR offers only including 1 comp guest. At this time it's just that one offer and if there is a policy change, we will be informed.

Would the diamond plus single supplement help to lower the price? My new offer that appeared today was just changed to "1 COMP GUEST IN A DOUBLE BALCONY OR OCEANVIEW".

We disembarked last month from Wonder and Oasis. I've booked a comp cruise and another free offer since then, both for 2 people. I've also had two new offers that I have not called about. This sounds like something new they are trying.

Wow! I got that offer and was considering it until I read this. That would be a game changer for me!

Have a great cruise! I'll be getting on as you exit.

You can check your points and offers at clubroyaleoffers.com. There's a place for your last name and rewards number. I would call Club Royale at 888-561-2234 to get answers to your questions or talk with a casino host on the ship you are on. To qualify as Prime you need 2,500 points for the year. I believe it's from April 1st to March 31st. At the end of their year, your points will reset to 0 and you start earning again for the next year. (I'm Prime now, but have until March 31st to get a total 2,500 points to be Prime starting April 1st.) --I'm not sure about your status through 2024. It could???have something to do with when you qualified. Ask the Casino Host!--

I didn't see that, but not surprised. This morning I'm watching the news about California Regulators closing Silicon Valley Bank. Do you ever sail out of Galveston?

I'm still getting offers, but have read many offers have stopped or been lowered. It will be interesting to see what happens in the future and especially after April 1st. For me, my guess is it will depend on how many points I get on my next two cruises. Does anyone know if 800 points in one cruise will still get you a free interior offer? That was a special for awhile.

We're boarding Wonder for the first time this Sunday. I have read that the Casino has a Golden Room and a Green Room. One is for high rollers and the other is for non-smokers. One of them has a place for some type of snacks. Online it looks like it's on deck 4 next to the Diamond Lounge. I'm looking forward to finding them myself.

Yay! I got my too. See you onboard.

Where was the ship when they were visible? North of Skagway? Thanks!

Best of luck and thank you for the advice!
