We haven't cruised in nearly 7 years.......
h20skibum replied to jammin's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We were on Symphony for the 8 night sailing before Christmas. Had early traditional, and no problem with it interfering with any of the shows. Huge lines for MTD when we left the dining room, both for those with and without reservations, so no, they haven’t fixed the problems with MTD. -
CFKACD! I have to carefully type that, and make sure that autocorrect didn’t change it into a banned word. Good to see you posting your trip report. I need a good read, while I am shivering here in the cold and windy conditions in Pennsylvania. I am already questioning my decision to come home from cruising, and I am already looking to get away again. Carry on, and get to work on this, I mean it is already 5 am on the west coast, and it is a weekend.

It would have to figure out how much space is occupied, to know if there was room for you and your bags. If we are on deck 8, doing a walk off with luggage, the elevator is always filled with people from decks above 8 by the time it gets there, if you press the down button now. We typically press the up button and get on, then press the down.

That sounds like new elevators that were put in at a hotel I use to stay at. They had no buttons inside the elevator. You pressed your floor outside the elevator. I found out, after I dashed into an open elevator after check in, only to find you could not choose your floor from inside. Ended up going for a ride, then got off and chose my floor. Wonder how that would affect my “go up to go down” with suitcases on disembark day?

This is a FYI post-a death occured on an excursion.
h20skibum replied to BopRN's topic in Royal Caribbean International
One of two deaths (that I know of) from our sailing in December. Royal would have provided assistance, but they would not have footed the bill to fly them home. You can be sure that would have been done with insurance. Otherwise, why would people bother with insurance. A very sad situation for the families. -
No set date, which is kind of annoying. Could be anywhere from 30 to 60 days before sailing. We are just off Symphony, and show reservations opened 56 days before sailing.

Alllure entertainment options on 3/4 night cruises
h20skibum replied to maggieq's topic in Royal Caribbean International
They are required. If you look at the daily highlights, where the shows are listed, it tells you there. You can also get in the shows using the standby line. -
Information requested about Oasis cabin
h20skibum replied to VegasVic14's topic in Royal Caribbean International
iPad Air will fit in the safe, but you have to angle it to get it to fit in. It is a tight fit. Yes, there is an outlet under the bed, near the phone. We moved the phone to the lower shelf, and plugged in the usb tower and used to this area to charge all our devices.- 1 reply

Coffee Vouchers/Early Morning Coffee
h20skibum replied to Edward51's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We were just on Symphony before Christmas. It was kind of hit or miss, but I was able to get a latte from the machine in the Crown Lounge (Diamond lounge) at 5am some mornings. Other mornings, some things were empty in the machine. They would start servicing the machine around 6:30 as they brought out the breakfast items. Cafe Promenade has coffee early, but it is very strong. -
We began our northward trek yesterday, which made for som interesting driving. The rain stayed west of us for the part of the drive from central Florida, until we got to I-26. It was heavy rain and high winds until we got north of Charlotte. Lots of crashes around that area. It made for an interesting drive. Today, we will get to see a mix of rain and snow on our last 400 miles.
