Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I just wanted to post an update. Royal Caribbean stepped up and more than took care of the issue. There was a snafu, it wasn’t caught and I am more than satisfied with the solution.
  2. I thought about canceling, but any option with another line is sold out for July. I thank everyone for their feedback. Had I been told on the 4th it was a no go then at least I could have based decisions on that, but to say ok then 3 days later to deny the exception and not inform me. I’ve invested approximately $18k so far between cabins, excursions and add on’s, and this wasn’t a change ever wished to make. But that little perk meant something to me, a sliver of light in dark times, even though it is a minor issue overall.
  3. I called Royal to confirm it in writing after reading posts here. although on 3/4/24 I was told the reservations were linked and a special exception was made so we could eat as a family in CK, somehow it was denied on 3/7 (and of course I wasn’t informed of this change) b/c CK couldn’t accommodate an extra person. I’m torn between heartbreak and anger b/c this trip was supposed to bring some comfort and something positive after our loss. Had I known this I would have cancelled.
  4. The rep from Royal outreach told me they linked it together so we could eat together in CK. I just wasn’t sure if that link went beyond that?
  5. I had a cruise booked for 4 (myself, daughter, grandson and my husband) in an owners suite (sky). I recently suddenly lost my husband, leaving the 3 of us and not knowing what direction to go. My other 2 adult kids said instead of me cancelling they would come and make it a family cruise in dad’s memory. Since the owner suite only sleeps 4, with no larger suite available and there’d be 5 of us now, Royal booked my 2 kids in an interior then linked them to my reservation so they can eat with me in coastal kitchen. With Royal linking them like this, will that also allow them to sit in the sky area with me at shows? I bought them the key just to be safe.
  6. Thanks for sharing your experience. My bucket list is the sloth encounter, although seeing monkeys, birds, etc would be cool too. Royal has what appears to be an excursion that would fit our needs (sloth, monkey, semi kind of sub tour) but shows it isn’t available yet. I’ve only cruised once via carnival (which I don’t recall a lag time between booking the cruise then picking excursions); this is my 1st cruise with Royal so not sure how or when they make their excursions available (we sail July 2024). Otherwise I’ll book outside of Royal, so again thanks for your insight, and I’ll check into Daniel Johnson.
  7. I just booked a cruise with royal today in 2024 and hope to cross something off of my bucket list, which is to hold a sloth. Is there one tour better than others? In the royal excursions app it shows the sloth, monkey and boat but says “not available”.
