Thank you both!

Does anyone know if the pools on the Harmony of the Seas are salt water.  We were on Harmony, but I can't remember.

Thanks,

Susan

When I was on Harmony there was no Prohibition Party. Symphony didn't have it either.

Thank you!

I have heard that the Oasis of the Seas has a Prohibition party. Does anyone know if Harmony of the Seas has one as well? If so, how do you sign up for the party?

Thanks!

Did you notice if there was a Prohibition Party onboard?

Congratulations. Sounds like a great start to your cruise!

Congratulations. Sounds like you'll have a great cabin.

Is the afternoon tea still included in your ticket or have they started charging extra?

It's included except for 1 special tea (I think it is called Royal tea). On our 1 week cruise it was offered one afternoon in the centrium area (not sure if that's the right name). There were multiple teas offered vs. just one offering. I think it was $10 without Champagne and $20 per person if you want champagne included. There is a free afternoon tea offered in one of the dining rooms that is great.

We enjoyed Princess Cay (it is tender) but there was plenty to do there; Ocho Rios is a port that you will be approached by somewhat aggressive panhandlers and people selling things. It's not my favorite port but if you do go there and you want exercise, go to Dunn's River Falls; See above for Grand Caymen and Cozumel.

The wait staff offer tea (it's pre-made - you do not have your choice of teas unless you go to the High Tea which is offered once per cruise for a fee). They have trays of small sandwiches that they bring by. Then they offer a variety of pastries - my favorite is the scone with clotted cream. We enjoyed it.

To arrange for the royal tea (aka high tea) go to the bar in the piazza area. They will add your name to the list and scan your card. On our last cruise on the Regal it was offered one time during the 7 day cruise. The day before the high tea princess should call your cabin to confirm the reservation. I think it is $10 per person without champagne-$20 if you want to include champagne.

There is also a daily free tea in one of the main dining rooms.

I have gotten a guarantee assigned the night before we cruised - and also have had a GTY assigned within 2 days of making my reservation.

Here is the shareholder's form that Princess sent me a couple of weeks ago.

I order decorations from an online store and bring them with me and decorated ourselves. The kids liked doing their own decorating.

Thank you!

We are considering a Transatlantic cruise on Vision of the Seas. Can anyone tell me if the Solarium is totally enclosed? We’d like to be able to swim even if it’s cool during the cruise. Thanks for any info you can provide.

Keep checking online - that's where I've always gotten my assignment when booking a guarantee.

We sail Sunday and still did not have a room assignment as of this morning. I just checked now and we've been assigned a cabin.

Brilliance March 02nd. Anyone else have a Guarantee booking and still awaiting a room assignment, the cruise has been showing sold out for sometime now ......

 

Not like me but getting a little nervous now.

We have rented a car in St. Maarten several times. We've felt very safe on the island. The rental booths are at the pier. We have reserved the cars before the cruise. It's one of our favorite islands.

Thanks!

Keep checking Royal's website for your stateroom assignment.

Thanks for your response. I'll keep checking.

I've never gotten an email. I check pretty regularly. Otherwise, I'm pretty sure they'll let you know when you check in at the port. :D

 

We booked an X for our next cruise, got the cabin issued, and rebooked to take advantage of some savings. I looked this morning and didn't have a cabin assignment, then I was looking at something else on our reservation a few minutes ago and now we have a room assignment. (Same one we had before so: WIN!!) I did not get an email for the new assignment.

I know that we may not hear about our cabin assignment until we board the ship. I am wondering how will we be notified in the event the cabin is issued before our cruise. Our documentation has already been issued. Will we get an email or do I need to keep checking back on the Royal Caribbean site.

Thanks,

Susan
