My sailing on Symphony is in ten days and the app still doesn't show any of the daily on board activities. It only shows the shows (we have already made reservations for) and the excursions. Shouldn't it be up by now?

I appreciate that. We try to plan but are definitely not stranger to seeing how it goes. Our 18 year old son is autistic. So because he is an only child, no friends and isn't like other kids his age he still isn't allowed in the teen/kids areas because he is 18. Maturity wise though he also isn't an adult. He doesn't understand slang and sarcasm etc. So we are trying to plan for his sake. What can be difficult for my son is having too many options or something, he just can't choose, so this usually involves a lot of pre-planning. (If I were to throw him in a movie theater with 15 movie options he would literally stand there for two hours not knowing what to chose, but if you narrow it down to 2 movies or something that could work.) With that we also know that some things just may not be for him and we may need to re-direct. He is very smart and some might consider him higher functioning but he is actually moderate.

I'm going on Symphony the last day in May! May 31st - June 7th.

I'm not able to find how to do that

I'm sailing on Symphony on May 31st. I see the big stuff like the shows and stuff but when does all the smaller things like trivia, bingo and all other activities show up? I'm a planner and want to start planning things.

where on the app? The app is a mystery to me as everyone refers stuff to the app that I can never find. I sail on Symphony on May 31st not much is on there except things I have reserved or purchased.

What is the rule with the towels? I thought you weren't allowed to just throw a towel on a lounger to reserve it. I thought you had to be in the vicinity. How do they manage this? Please and thank you. Sailing Symphony on May 31st.

I thought this wasn't allowed? I thought you weren't allowed to reserve chairs if you aren't there? And all chairs/loungers gone by 9am?? When I sail on Symphony in late May it will definitely be more crowded so I am not happy to hear this. Glad I booked a "casita" but apparently it isn't as poolside as they advertise it to be. (And if you say it isn't a rule just frowned upon, would it then be frowned upon if I take the towels right back off the chairs?) Also RC has cameras everywhere if they really wanted to they could find those girls.

I sail on symphony in late May but I haven't heard of a show called iskate2.0 Is this a show? Does it require reservations because I don't see anything for it. Is stuff like laser tag and open skate reservation only and when do you make those reservations?

Stupid question but is there a time change between New York and the Bahamas?

I did my online check in and I sail out May 31st. I haven't seen anything for luggage tags. When does that come in?

I sail out on May 31st This was just online checkin

I just did the check in process for my cruise. when do I get luggage tags to print? Do I have to do anything else now? Just wait? Any other tings to fill out at a later date?

The packages don't say anything about both digital and printing out? I just need to make sure because if it is just digital I don't think I want to spend the money and all digital, I want to have some printed (not all just some) but don't want to have to pay MORE money for it.

I did it! I got 11:30am is this the earliest check in time? I've heard different things. It is Symphony out of NJ

I definitely did!

So my online check in is Tuesday April 16th (So for me on the west coast I guess it is 9pm monday night? We are leaving out of Newark) What do I do? Never done this so I am wondering what to expect and what to do.

Ok wow thats a lot of info thanks, so I have to go "find " these photographers? Also it said photos of "rides" I assume they mean the slide thing and zip line?

It's not the dedicated photo shoot. It says like choose 100 photos. From ports, to rides etc. SO when do they do things on the "rides" it is just a little confusing. Also is it just digital downloads? Any printed photos or is that extra too! It is already over $200 for just that.

Sailing on Symphony to the Bahamas in May and we were thinking about getting the photo package. DO they just randomly follow you around? How do they get shots of you on the trip? Is it digital only or do they print out photos for you (and is that an extra cost). It just seems very pricey for only downloads. Can anyone help? Please and thank you

When in May? I am sailing Symphony in May from Newark (Is that Cape Liberty?) but I don't have a check in yet??

Funny story I got COVID from my Carnival cruise (the only cruise I've gone on) and I was the ONLY one masked out of my entire family! I was having knee surgery after we got back so I was being careful and when I was doing the pre-op tests they said I got COVID! (I didn't even feel anything so I had no clue), This was in March of 2022.

Are all activities like that supposed to be listed in the app now? I go sailing on Symphony May 31-June 7th

Allure of the seas is going to be there when I am there on the Symphony. I"m new to Royal is Allure a bigger boat?

That's weird, Carnival is self serve
