See you all in a few hours!! 😁😁

Just a qq for anyone who has been there.  When you get off the ship, are there people there willing to drive you around? We want to take a tour, but complications are making it so that we might not be able to book an actual tour.  We are hoping we can sorta wing it.  From anyone who has been there before, are there people waiting to help you like it is in almost ever port in the Bahamas? 

Omg...I will go do that now! So ready to go already!

Wow! If only I could get 2 weeks off work in a row...I would do the same!

But who or how do I contact someone is my question...hehe

I would like to see if they can upgrade my offer to free drinks anywhere.  I had this offer at one time, and didn't book then.  By the time I booked it was no longer available.  So I would like to contact them and see if they can help me out

I want to try for a better arrangement...to be honest 😁

I don't see any group here for this cruise....so....let's start one!! Who all is going? 

Greetings glorious people! I would like to contact casino promotions prior to my cruise....does anyone know how to get in touch with them? I did a Google search and searched here also, but can't seem to find it.  Ty in advance ❤️

Hello everyone! Had anyone stayed in a cove balcony room? Just wondering how your experience was.  It's kinda weird (for me) to be so low on the ship and close to the water.  I have never stayed anywhere near that low, but the balcony rooms are pretty much sold out at the higher levels for the dates im looking at.  I don't really care much about the "private cove area" more so about being on deck 2..... Anyone stay in these balcony rooms and if so...did u like it?

Hi all! I will be on the Venezia for opening week of the NFL...anyone know is there is any sports bar/place to watch the games?

Casino promo - I have a "free drinks anywhere" package from the casino.  Does anyone know if this starts on embarkation day or does it start the first day at sea like cheers does? 

Thanks!!

It sure won't be less crowded...all the balcony rooms are sold out.... hehe...but I don't care...I'm ready to go right now 😁

Empty a bottle of red wine and wash it.  Fill it with bourbon an reseal it.  They sell stuff on Amazon for homeaid wine sealing for like 5 bucks.  They will never know 

Hello everyone! Just finalized my booking!  Looking super forward to this trip 😁

Sorry...cell phone posted this twice 🙄

Hi! Does anyone have or can anyone point me in the right direction to find the dinner menus for the 8 day out of New York? I'm trying to decide what are the best nights to book the specialty restaurants...but don't want to miss an awesome main dining night.  Thank you!!

First of all....please don't flame me 😂 

I am new to royal...but get wonderful deals on "another" cruise line.  Has anyone ever done anything, or been successful at calling and getting a better deal due to your status on another cruise line? 

Ty 😍

Since people asked....I got my first Moderna shot on Saturday.  It was an absolute breeze!!

I did have the tiniest amount of arm soreness...but at my age..i kinda always have that! haha.

If i didnt know i had gotten the vaccine, i would not have thought at all about the arm soreness.

I had a friend who also got the moderna Saturday (and she is VERY sensitive).  She had some arm soreness that she equated to "a few midgets punching your arm"

Certainly nothing we could not handle...and happy to have round one over!!

Good Luck everyone 🙂

All i know is that my appointment times open on 3-22 @ 8:00 a.m. for my vaccination.  I fully plan on being on the phone at 7:59 to book the first available slot.  I should be fully vaccinated by mid-May...depending on the first time available to me.

I can imagine at LEAST 90% of the population will get the vaccination...and perhaps that will be mandatory to go on a cruise?  

I sure cant see this being an issue 15 months from now....pending mutation of course...

Still hopeful!!!

lol!!  i guess freezing cold and snowy is nice...but not for 5 months a year 😉

I am also eyeing baltimore in September...just cause its so so cheap...but not sure yet 🙂

So as we are experiencing what might be the first nice day in Connecticut this year (almost 60deg) I couldnt stand it  anymore.

Carnival Magic...out of new york...7-6-2022.....not sure how i can POSSIBLY wait that long, but its what i gotta do 🙂

I expect everything virus related to be long over by then, and i really hope cruising is "normal" again.

They cancelled the one i had booked for this July, so i took advantage of the $600 onboard credit with the rebook deal....

Fingers are crossed 🙂

Hey Gang,

Quick question for any of you that have left from New York.

I am going with my parents (both 80) and i was wondering about embarkation and debarkation.

I was eyeing the priority check in ($179 per cabin) 

Has anyone done this?  Did it significantly speed up your time waiting?  Is it needed?

We will be there early for sure as we are close to NY...so i dont know if i need it but....just wanted to ask 🙂

Thanks!

I am going on the 4-5 cruise.  Reason?  Its my nephew's Spring break 🙂

wow....thats is a great list...ty so much!  i just wonder if they will be discounted the first day 🙂  thanks!!
