As long as diabetics are banned from cruising, I doubt I will be able to cruise again.
What would they do with everyone who develops diabetes during the sailing?

It’s not a charter but rather, it’s a contract between Nursecon and RCI. I’m a nurse and had thought about this cruise until I read the fine print on the Nursecon site stating no refunds. Also, just the idea of being on a cruise while having to go to class for education credits. My daily choices while out at sea would be a pool or class....and I know which choice will win.Does UDP apply to the classes?

I would like to virtually be at my house from on board a ship, instead of the other way around.

A lot of good points... but I think we can all agree on one thing, hopefully we are sailing again in October in time for my Indy sailing 🙃

Apparently my $20 per day in slot spend has not yet qualified me for a free cruise... shucks

Are soft drinks available all day or only during cocktail hour?

Gratuities contributes a substantial profit margin for Royal, it will not go away anytime soon.
This would imply they are keeping the gratuities and not paying the staff out. I think you are off base here.

I heard that some of the Vegas hotels charge a $35-$45 resort fee. And that doesn't include tips.
$14.50 pp is a deal and it includes tips. 😄
Not if you have 4-5 people in your room. Hotels don't charge by person.

Why tip someone for a job I'm capable of doing myself? I can deliver food, I can drive a taxi, I can and do cut my own hair. I did, however, tip my urologist. Because I am unable to pulverize my own kidney stones.

We usually sail Disney, and they have it broken down by who is getting the tip. We always remove the "Head Server", which on Disney is just a random guy who walks up to you once a night and says "How is everything?". He doesn't deserve a tip. But with them, they give you the ability to customize up or down the amounts for each person as you see fit.
My upcoming RCI sailing will only be my second RCI sailing. Am I understanding correctly that tips on your SeaPass are all or nothing? And they aren't allocated, just pooled? I only ask, because often times we find ourselves not going to the MDR, so I wouldn't likely tip that server (unless we actually went). I wouldn't want to reduce my overall total tip amount, but ensure those actually serving me are the ones getting tipped.
If you can't allocate, then it seems the best way is cash tips (which I generally prefer anyway, feel it is more personal)

I like to switch to cash, then actually leave nothing...

Stupid question... Can I pre-pay gratuities after booking, online? Or do I have to call?
I don't see the option anywhere when I log in.

Will be trying the IPA and the Thrilla Chilla at lunch. Will let you know!
Hop Gun isn’t bad. Not my favorite IPA. Looking forward to hearing how Thrilla is. I plan on having about 73 in Dec when we sail.

We have a party of six currently booked into a panoramic ocean view suite. The only higher priced suite that would accomodate all of us will be a 2-BR Grand Suite. I've read that if bidding, that the bid charges would only be for two passengers. So to confirm, if I get an opportunity to bid for a 2-BR Grand suite and it is accepted (for argument's sake, say I bid $500) would I only be charged for that bid x 2 people (i.e. 2 x $500 = $1000) that would allow all 6 of us to stay in the upgraded suite?
Yep that is correct!

I can see the headline now:

Quick question. The corkage fee that is mentioned in the original post. Is that just if you bring it to a dining room? Or does it apply to any bottles brought onboard?
Only if brought to dinner.

yes about one week out you will receive a letter from the Suite Concierge outlining your benefits. You will also have one in your stateroom when you get there
Awesome, thank you. Not accustomed to this uppity life style.

Always enjoyed breakfast in chops , a couple of years ago there also was a lunch there but I believe that has stopped. Concierge will send you a letter with current perks .
That's good info, thanks.
Will the letter come pre-cruise, or something we will receive on board?

How is Chops breakfast? Anything to write home about?

I actually meant the DBP, but I was an idiot and used the wrong acronym. That's what I get for trying to be funny. I will just sit in the corner and excuse myself from the conversation.
