Lol I missed it then lol. I had tunnel vision to find that funnel cake. Only been one other time very very long ago before funnel cake and other improvements.

Buffet back on the ship? Did you pay for a area? I have not seen a free buffet but there could be one. I was looking for the snack place with the funnel cake. There is free food on coco cay.

You can make it for both. Use the add button.

JiJis is on this ship. My favorite pay restaurant. I also thought the lobster rolls were awesome from the fish place in the aft.

Imo do anytime dining. Chibang is free but sounds like only if you do anytime dining. A couple other places included free on mardi gras and 2 sisters. .with anytime dining. I think only 1 time free. I want to try emerils and free big shaq chicken and some other places for sure. 555 Fahrenheit their steak place free wine first night, be sure and ask for it. They still do surf n turf, a lobster and smaller fillet which I always order. Rcl long since lobster is now a upcharge. 2 free lobsters on lobster night. Additional are $5 each.

Unlimited bubbles, their soft drink pkg. Lol. Not much. Priority etc. I want to try their newest ships but it came down to jubilee or 14 days on dream with new ports. Carnival is raising prices imo just as drastically. Now that im free to cruise, everyone seems to have nuts prices. The havanna area on vista class was a huge success ..these excel suites are the next step. People love having a pool to themselves and more attentive bar service and peace and quiet.

I agree with your comments on the rest room at coco cay. It was gross when I went in march too. They need to clean it more often.

Facial recognition will select pictures you are in. It doesnt cut out people in the same picture. For instance I have several pictures with my dinner Mdr dining tables where none were in my cabin and other than dinner hadnt met them before. Maybe what those terms mean are you can add minors to who is facially recognised.

Ok thanks. I've read it's not available on journeys cruises. I did a journey cruise to Alaska 7 days a long time ago and we had a naturalist onboard, very nice cruise. Alaska 7 days no longer listed as journey cruise. It's the only perk I really care about. Maybe because I'm solo, I dont see the big deal about free laundry.

Idk what discount you get onboard with the key but I bought 15% off for various places to eat and now those same places are 10% off and each is $5 more. The way they are raising prices I'm not sure you save by waiting until you board. Prices seem to just go up. Also check black friday sales. My 28.99 izumi booking plus 18% was 34.99 with tip (15% off 34.99). Now its 34.99, 10% off 39.99 for instance. I didnt know when I booked the price was anything special.

No according to me TA you can change the 2nd pax for free. I would remove before final if possible so you arent charged fees and taxes on the 2nd pax and most likely get 2nd loyalty pt without a problem. Nothing is for sure with rcl IT imo.

Actually less imo. No priority boarding and debarking. .. color me not happy. Too many high loyalty level book these cruises so carnival is too lazy to handle bigger groups. My jan 13 2024 cruise on the dream is a journey cruise. Been sold out since april. So some cruises may already be closed to booking that are upcoming journey cruises. We been sold out for months. Not listed on carnival site.

Actually radiance did a few weeks and then was in Galveston. I was booked on radiance jan 30th out of Galveston and then again march 27, both 10 days on radiance and it did some to coco cay. For sure radiance was not scheduled for the rest of winter. I believe radiance was pulled from Australia and needed some place to go so did a little out of new orleans and dead headed to texas jan 2023.

The biggest difference for me was the pizza place, sorrentos is separate from the cafe. Still in the promenade but it's down a ways. A extra place to grab a drink or snack.

We dont even know what ship you are on. Lol it's a cabin, not a room. Deck 3 isnt horrible, might be a longer walk. If there are cabins open the exact same category, you can usually get moved to another, like 4v to 4v... on another deck. If that's what you prefer.

Who would purchase it for lunch idk but yes you could use it. I'd pick 3 full price places, agree not ala carte. Chops 150, etc.

I've never seen it always available. I've seen it mostly on black friday promotions. Who knows when they will next have it?

I dont understand when you say unavailable. Do you mean a gty price isnt available? If you book 2 and one no shows they have not been giving the extra solo loyalty pt. I wouldn't go that route.

Check in to get time is 45 days before. No lobster on 5 nights. I pick a time to eat in rcl, hate to wait in line.

For those who are passionate about stocks like me, still watching. It barely held 98 yesterday and bounced. Even a novice at chart reading can clearly see the direction of rcl. Charts dont predict long term, just short term. Even yahoo says chart is bearish short term. Someone above said short term side ways, which isnt what the chart says. I'm just here because of the obc, but doesnt mean I need to hold it while it sells off. Hopefully will settle down after earnings. I'll be gone all next week and give you all a break. .. clear direction today on rcl. It's still looking for a new support level. Hasnt found it yet.

North lot of the port. It does fill up so book a ways before.

Our Bella1 group price dropped by a lot, so group prices can also drop if they are generic thru the TA company, not a set group travelling together.

If your cruise is 28 days away, no TA is holding cabins or space on your sailing. Before final payment, above says 120 days before space goes back. It wouldnt do any good to contact that ta over another. All can see whatever 4 pax cabins that are left.

On some other ships there are coffee machines over by the desserts. Not as many go there for coffee but I've heard and seen looks good to me.

He mentioned booking gtys.
