Okay... weird, I have already paid for that. Could be because I have booked multiple transfers with them.

This is the quote I got from Amber Moon, this would be on top of the $100 quoted to transport the two of us from Colon to the airport.

My husband and I actually are just going to go straight to the airport and hang out until time to leave. We discussed doing a city tour but thought by that time we might be wanting to just relax. Looks like the airport has a lounge that you can buy a one day pass, so that is what we plan on doing.

Thank you

My husband and I are going to Panama to get on a cruise in February. We have never flown outside of the US, can someone please tell me if we can just put our prescription meds in our pill cases or are we going to need to provide the actual bottles showing all the information?

how do you get a PIN?

Check with Amber Moon Taxi. I have not yet used them, but they have very high ratings on Tripadvisor, they will do a private tour with airport dropoff with pick up at Colon port.

In the past we always did the late MDR seating, but this time since it is just my husband and I, we decided to try the MTD. I am sure it will be fine, just frustrating.

The $25 would have covered the new prices. I went a head and rebooked one of the lunches, and Royal managed to get more money out of me, because now they have the Sip, Brunch, Tour available so took the cancellation as a sign to reserve that instead of what I had. Oddly enough it let me do that, so the whole reservation system is obviously not down.

No I am not upset, I supposed it sounded a little "over dramatic" out of context, to say it was "cursed". We booked this in May 2023, it was a 7 night full transit Panama Canal cruise for our 40th wedding anniversary. In August, Royal sent an email they were "enhancing" our cruise experience by removing the Canal Transit and lowering it from 7 nights to 6 nights and ports changed from Costa Rico to Aruba and Curacao. It took forever before they even opened MTD for reservations. We have never done the MTD, so I was worried until I could finally make those reservation. Then to get the really good deals on lunch reservations on Black Friday, I thought everything was good to go. Then to have them cancel everything and not be able to re-book the MTD. Just really frustrated that 50 days out Royal keeps causing issues. We will enjoy it, just can't help but to feel very disappointed in Royal at this point.

Yes, I have them, and they show on the app, but as cancelled. Don't know if that will make a bit of difference I kind of expected to see someone else from my cruise would have already started a thread on this.

I am hoping someone can answer some questions or give me some advice. My husband and I are booked on the Rhapsody of the Seas on 2/25/2024. The latest snafu on this cursed cruise is Royal just cancelled all dining reservation, stating they are doing an "upgrade" to the reservation system. I had reserved MTD for all 6 nights and purchased lunches for our two sea days during the Black Friday sales. They refunded all we paid and gave us $25 each for the "inconvenience". Of course, now the lunches I purchased on sale are not near the deal they were, but whatever. My worry now, the website will not let me do a MTD reservation, so I called the dining area to try to get my reservations put back on just for the MTD. The Rep told me there was nothing they could do because they were doing the upgrade and said I would need to wait until I get on board, go to the dining room and they are supposed have something that shows we originally had 6:45pm MTD reservations and they will be honored. I have my doubts. Again any advice or suggestions on what to do, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I purchased lunch in Chops on Oasis, on a sea day, for my group of 8 cruisers, as a christmas gift. It was absolutely wonderful and everyone loved it.

Isn't that always the case? When the "enhancement" was announced I looked at other cruises to move to, but since this is for our 40th wedding anniversary, we couldn't find any other cruises that were any better, to us, than what we booked. I figured, ehhh, if I stay on this I don't have to rebook flights, research and find hotels or any of that. And still was able to book a small boat partial transit. But now, after it is too late, I have started 2nd guessing my choice. I too am now worrying they might decide they don't have enough passengers to make it worth their while. I wander if anyone on CC has had Royal cancel an unpopular itinerary, at the last minute? I have been looking online and it seems like there are alot of empty cabins.

We looked at changing to a different cruise when the "enhancement" was announced but none of the other itineraries available for our 40th wedding anniversary, were any more interesting, than what was being offered, so it was easier to just stay on the original, and not have to pay to change flights and find hotels and all of that. We are still going to at least get a partial transit thru the Panama Canal, as I booked a small boat trip, which I have read, is actually much more interesting than doing it on a huge cruise ship. Still going to be on a cruise in the warmth instead of in Illinois in February.😆 So I guess it is what it is, just a little frustrated with the situation.
