  1. Hi there,

     

    I was diagnosed with allergies to multiple foods several months ago. Since my go to drink has been Patron (made with Agave) with Diet Ginger Ale, when having a drink. Do any of you know if this available on Royal Caribbean, in particular the Majesty, or should I bring my own Ginger Ale on to have with another Agave product?

     

    Thank you!

    If you do have Bad Allergies,the first thing I would do when you board is go to the head waiter at the dining room and tell him.We have sat at dinner with a lady that had very bad allergies and she met with the head chef and went over a menu.And every night he came to the table to check with her.

  2. I booked a hotel for Friday and Saturday nights pre-cruise, but haven't booked air, yet...waiting for JetBlue and Southwest fares to come out. Also giving myself time to change my mind if I need to. What would you recommend doing in San Juan? We will probably have Friday evening and all day Saturday. I'm debating between a self-guided tour of OSJ with stops in a few bars and restaurants, or a guided tour to El Yunque. Not sure how much time we will have to do both?

     

    Thanks!

    if you do a self tour of Old San Juan,there is a free shuttle that will take you up to the fort,the shuttle is an on/off at any point.The other thing to see is Barrchina that is where the Pena Colota was invented.You can eat or just drinks there.

  3. We took the Cuba cruise last year it was a five night cruise with over night in Havana,The first day we took the ships tour. The guide that we had was very good. The second day we walked around the square which is just across the road from the dock.'

    As for the money exchange we went to a local exchange here in New Jersey, to exchange, in Cuba it was very easy .We only took $40 USD worth. While waiting for the bus tour they talked to us about when we come back to the ship if you don't want to cash your cuc it would be ok to give it to any of the crew,we gave ours to our room steward,the reason was because they are there every week.It would be like an extra tip.

     

     

    Enjoy your cruise,we did

  4. Have cruised out of San Juan several times. I would highly recommend El Convento in Old San Juan. Beautiful hotel and they have the best tapas bar around. Ask some locals where to get the best mofongo -- you'll get several suggestions, but you can bet they will all be good.

     

    Hilton El Caribe is also a tried and true good one. Excellent service. Very "corporate" and lacking some of the charm of a hundreds-year-old former convent, but reliable and clean.

     

    The El Caribe may still be closed,I think it may open in January
