Trying to catch up on everything that has changed since our last cruise. My husband I have been on 7 or 8 RC cruises but only 1 with 1 kid, and now we have 2. We decided to take a random cruise in November on Explorer of the Seas with a deal we couldn't pass up, and I'm excited but feeling overwhelmed by all the changes!
I have the app. I know we have to pick a boarding time so many days before. We're all vaxxed so no testing to worry about now. Can we still get paper schedules for the next day? We used to withdraw cash on board without a fee, for the casino and tipping. My boys will probably prefer the buffet but I want the main dining room experience a few times. I'm working on booking excursions (we always did our own thing based on excellent advice from here BC).
Any other suggestions or obvious things I should know or be doing? Any other major changes to the cruising experience? Thanks for any help! I have only received one payment confirmation email from RCI but no other email communication of any kind, is that normal?
