Just guessing that the Hard Rock partnership will be based solely on casino activity on board ships vs the MGM deal which just requires a certain tier level with RCL's loyalty program for MGM benefits.

Reading about new endeavor with Hard Rock properties and curious as to how this will affect the MGM partnership. Recall reading about similar deal with an on line betting site but have not seen much about that lately. If all of these go through just seems like some winnowing likely.

My advice: BOOK A LATER FLIGHT!
-
Depending on how dark you need the room to be to sleep, I just leave the bathroom light on and close the door.

From dropoff by family to boarding about 30 minutes. But we arrived at 1. Too many arrived before noon and had to wait. Debarking was late for previous cruise due to tide issues and 55 buses had to be loaded. When they said not to arrive early they meant it. This week will be different. Only one bus for b2bers but there will be a few shuttles from the parking garage. And if they start debarkation on time it will help. We're b2b but they gave us 930 departure time since I didn't pick one cause we don't need one. We actually had to sit for a bit because the gangway got backed up. They scan your pass for boarding on the ship so that caused a backlog. I'm currently sitting by the oasis pool on cc.
Thanks for reply. Arrive in Norfolk pretty early and will wait it out there until about 1

To be on the safe side I would not depend on HOPE and verify that all are checked in by any means.

Seems to be a quality vs quantity thing!
Not a beer drinker myself but I can see the point of the quantity side if only the alcohol side of the equation is most important.

Yes we are onboard. Currently in Freeport. Great weather and seas so far. We're on next cruise also. We saw that about end of May
Hope to board next Friday. ? How was the boarding process for you, I will be cabbing it from the airport and just trying to time the trip there so as not to get to the terminal to early or run into a cluster of folks trying to board at the same time, does the terminal baggage drop-off area get very congested?
Thanks for any response.

I have only seen the Bigelow foil packets of various blends. My preference is just plain mint tea though I believe there are quite a few varieties available.

Come on, ya gotta cruise while ya can!! Eat cruise and be merry! Life’s short!
Reassessing options. Looking into flying down using Southwest points on an early morning flight the day of out of BWI. If flight goes south(problem) I will be no worse off than just canceling or being a no show. Definitely do not want to drive down even a day early and try to find a hotel with parking for the length of the cruise. Hope to see you on board.
PS for me it is usually eat, drink(in moderation) and be merry!

Disappointed with this choice. Will have to think about even going and just eat the cruise fare.

On the ships I have been on hey had sandwich's, cookies and fruit placed out for lunch in addition to the continental breakfast and happy hour selections mentioned.

Only as a spectator!

Piggy Back ? Voucher for bottle of wine discount good only once during cruise or available for use each day?
-
Lighten up folks. barric pretty much covered their expectations and guessing they chose this cruise due to convenience of driving vs flying(?) to port.

Port is usually available as for the cocktail, I have asked for cocktails not specifically listed in the bar menus and as long as the ingredients are available you should be able to get what you want.

There isn't really much they can or will do in the dry dock, though it would be nice if they changed out the bathroom shower curtains for the sliding door enclosure.

IMHO food quality and choices have declined YMMV!

Will probably start looking at other lines as fares for similar cruises on same ship booked this year are at least 25% higher next year.

Looking at Nov 2025 before and after Thanksgiving and code will not apply and says invalid when entered.

Royal is heavily marketing to families and kids will be part of that mix, with the new ships there will be many younger passengers. Also, homeschooling has grown quite a bit since covid so planning around traditional school breaks will be less effective.

Unless it is a hagan daze marketing ploy it seems that they have sourced this product from overseas for ages.

Royal Caribbean Senior Discount
in Royal Caribbean International

SR and Military discounts are rare, though I do catch a military one every few years. These just seem to depend on how slowly bookings are going for any particular cruise.
