  1. Unfortunately the base price is higher now, so even with 35% off it's unlikely to fall below $115.
  2. Keep watching, it will be cheaper around Black Friday😉 or is your cruise before then?
  3. Yep, it’s really just their way of saying 25% off. Confusing I know.
  4. Incorrect. you only pay $130 if only one adult in the cabin.
  5. No, the price of $130 includes the ‘50% off’ so it’s the same for both.
  6. I wonder how much someone got paid for the hours thinking up that name🙄
  7. Just a heads up if anyone is going to buy OBC - they are still giving the .66 rate. Better than the banks and refundable if you don’t use it all.
  8. A new high for the alcohol package on 2 of our cruises, due to the tanking AUD and coming off a sale price - $138.94 pppd 😲
  9. The release says ‘available by the bottle and the glass’ so I would imagine so.🍷
  10. This came up in my FB feed today. Anyone tried these? https://www.royalcaribbeanpresscenter.com/press-release/1681/royal-caribbean-uncorks-exclusive-partnership-with-ponting-winesrn/
  11. This has to be the only time I wish I lived in Melbourne..🤣
  12. I got excited for a little while but already have a b2b in March and the flights from WA make it not so enticing. Looks like a decent offer to try out Virgin though.
  13. I have to disagree - I'll take Busselton and Margaret River over Broome anytime.
  14. Agreed, I was actually referring to the period between booking and final payment date which can be over 12 months for some people. They're not getting my money for that long.
  15. When I book and pay the deposit I put the rest of the total amount into a special account where it earns a bit of interest. That goes towards obc for a few drinks etc. Why give it to RCI to play with.
  16. The official site would be in AUD, whereas Viator etc is in USD. Roughly the same price.
  17. It depends how you booked. If you booked with an Australian TA or directly on the RCI Australia website then the prices on the website cruise planner are in AUD. If you booked and paid your deposit with a US TA then the prices will be in USD.
  18. Royal Caribbean Spectrum is doing a 4 nighter return out of Singapore on Jan 11 if that’s any help. Nice ship.
  19. A living language is always evolving. So many words and expressions that did not exist even 50 years ago.
  20. Speaking of butter dishes, I still use daily a Danish stainless steel one which was a wedding gift from 1969😲 It's been through the dishwasher thousands of times and still looks almost like new.
