Yes, I would say that is a good price. Our Symphony cruise in August is showing $222 for the beach club. Oddly enough, we are on Icon in May and it was selling for $186 but just last week the beach club dropped to $80.

They can override it once you get on board. We had laser tag booked one time and because of that anything I tried to view was in red like you mentioned but once on board they did it for me. We had UDP on Wonder.

I will be on Freedom of the seas in a couple weeks and originally booked an interior cabin. I put in a bid for a promenade view interior just so I had a window for people watching lol. I bid the minimum which was $50 total and was awarded my upgrade exactly a month before sailing.

I can't find the previous post but someone who worked for Royal/port said it was something they were testing out on Freedom. I sailed on Freedom the week of 1/8 with a check in time of 12pm and I'm Platinum and my set sail pass turned purple after doing my health check and it listed "express boarding". I arrived in my uber to port at 11:45 and saw a separate line for "Express boarding" and was through security and on ship by 11:56. Pretty quick!
