I am also one that has been fine with 1 day service. It is so nice to not have to worry about leaving our room at a certain time twice a day. I wasn’t sure I would feel that way, but it has been nice.
The Quantum Class ships are great for Alaska IMO. You can hang out at the 270 or Solarium and enjoy all of the beauty the Alaska has to offer. Enjoy your trip.
The Alaska cruises on the Quantum Class are the only ones that I don’t feel that I need a balcony on. We very rarely use them in Alaska and spend most of our time up in the Solarium or 270 enjoying the views.
The ship is 26 years old and Royal isn’t paying any attention to the older ships much anymore. If you would have chosen a ship in the Oasis or Quantum Class, your experience would have been much different.
I am not on your sailing, but reserving shows on Oasis class ships have been happening the beginning of the month prior to sailing. I expect yours to open May 1st or shortly after.
