Longhorn Cruiser

I have two Loft Suites on the Symphony booked for next month both at a Senior Discount.  $842 per cabin.

The ship is full.

You can see menus in the app though?  I sail in a few weeks and can't see menus yet.  No big deal as we aren't going to eat in the MDR that much but no menus in app for MDR or restaurants yet.

Now I can make dining and entertainment reservations in the app.  I couldn't do either yesterday.

I couldn't for about 2 weeks but can now as of today.

Try to uninstall the app and reinstall.

Are you sailing soon?  I can see restaurants in the app but no menus.  Have not been able to see menus in the app at for this reservation.

In about 6 weeks.  I can make reservations online but not in the app.

I've had the same problem for a couple of weeks.

EDIT:  and just as I type that, I go to the app and it asked me to login again.  I can now at least see the restaurants and menus but still can't make a reservation.

I have purchased a 2 device plan prior to my next cruise.

My wife and I are both Diamond Plus.

Should I change the 2 device plan to 1.

Can I use our 4 free days onboard as credit toward a second device?

Does this make sense?

When you get down to the solarium, how much of that noise filters down from the aqua dome?  One thing I always enjoy, is the peaceful atmosphere in the solarium. 

There is no Solarium.

The ship was designed with families in mind, just look at the waterpark they put on the ship. No surprise the headline show would be something for kids.

The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy and Somewhere over the Rainbow also appeal to another large class of cruisers.

Can somebody please post the cruise compass and entertainment schedule for the week.  Thanks!

I saw a video yesterday of someone getting a bagel at the make your own bagel bar?

Anyone know where this is?

Has anyone seen a muster station map yet?

Would love to see where I'm supposed to go.

TIA

I know there are $4,000 cabanas and the like, but this one got to me.

We did the Coco Cay Beach Club less than 2 years ago and paid $89 per person.

It was nice but I still walked away thinking I overpaid for an upgraded lunch, a couple of chairs and pool access.

Look how much it is now.

You can get 5 nights in specialty restaurants for that price.

I am on the 2/17 sailing.   I have taken the times from the 1/27 and inserted them into my spreadsheet.

Here is what that looks like.

I just got off the Allure yesterday.  I brought 5 bottles on board that I bought in Galveston at Spec's.  (We were a group of 5 adults.)

I took each of the bottles unopened to either the MDR or Specialty restaurants.

The waiters gladly opened and served the bottles and there wasn't a single mention of a corkage fee.

Only inconvenience was carrying the bottles around the ship on embarkation day but the cabins were ready by 1:30.  I brought a wine tote bag with me.

Thanks!  Do you know if they all come up at once or do I have to go into each reservation separately?  Just trying to plan ahead so I am ready and can hopefully get them all in the same time block

When I select Check In, I can scroll down to each person under multiple reservation numbers and select Arrival Time for each one individually.

I saw all four of our linked rooms in my app.  I reserved the arrival time for all four at midnight and then let each one complete the rest of the check in at their leasure.

There is a place on the literary object that has a face for all this information.

After decoding,  I took the information you provided and added to the Link above.

Ignore the names - this is hopelessly outdated.  But it gives you the email addresses, so you can use that contact information to find out what you want.'

I created a new spreadsheet that is blank that can be edited with new names of the concierges.   Feel free to add names that you know.

I left the email addresses in.

Passport card is really only useful at land crossings.

The main reason you take a passport instead of birth certificate on a cruise is in case something happens and you need to fly home.   You will need an actual passport for this.

If nothing happens then a birth certificate is fine.

No reason to take a passport card on a cruise.

Yes. I found out on the Symphony. 

You can complete the customs form online while on the ship and avoid doing it upon disembarkation.

Ask Mary J Ana if she used to be on Harmony 

We had a Marijana for our SLS and CLS and she was the best 

 

her name so easy to remember and she made some excellent towel fiends 

I'll bet she cleans the room with Blazing speed.

Good night/morning. 
 

If I were home I’d be well into dream world. 
 

But on a cruise. Ha

 

Spent a little time in casino. 
 

Earned my visit to customs. 

 

 

 

This time took the cash and exit stage left. 
 

Sleeping with my winnings under my pillow. 
 

It’s lumpy. 
 

Sea you. 

Maybe you could buy some refundable on board credit with some of your cash to get under $10k?  The credit you don't use will get refunded to your credit card.

Not sure Royal was always tracking days, only credits. Of course, this is a fight from more than a decade ago. 
 

yes, folks that took mostly long cruises got shorted. 

In your account under past cruises, the description lists the number of nights.

I was able to get 83 points for 56 nights.
