  1. No, they will just confiscate it. Probably then drink it themselves after work!
  2. My bad-I didnā€™t see that you were talking about Vision. Sorry about that!
  3. Huh? You mean Central Park, girlfriend?šŸ˜…
  4. Small hijack-sorry šŸ˜Š. And what about the reverse? From Barcelona in October back over to Florida? 2025
  5. I was on Apex March 2 and no, hardly any spring breakers. I was also on Symphony March 23rdā€¦.Many spring breakers!
  6. My husband does Dry January every year, so the NA beers are a nice substitute. As others have mentioned, Guinness and Blue Moon have good ones, along with Sam Adams, Peroni, and Corona. He really likes one called Athletic Brew (several varieties) which I have seen at Target, Winn Dixie, and Walmart. Unfortunately, Royal doesnā€™t offer a big variety and only carries Heineken Zero-which I actually thinks tastes a lot like regular Heineken. You can use your Diamond drinks for the Heineken zero.
  7. Huh, I have MTD on my upcoming Symphony cruise and had no problem booking shows even 1.5 hours after that. Iā€™ve also never had any issues before with other cruises. Maybe a problem with your computer?
  8. Iā€™m on Symphony the 23rd, too. It popped up on the app, but not on the website. I did not receive an email either-just happened to see it on the app. Yep, Falmouth, direct replacement for Labadee with no switcharoo of sea days.
  9. I too have a traveling hospital, lol! Except mine also harbors some eye drops and biofreeze!
  10. My son is 6ā€™1ā€ and 200 lbs and slept in The bottom bunk just fine. I wouldnā€™t recommend the top one though! Weā€™ve stayed in this category room twice and love them-they feel like a suite! Hoping they accept our Royal up bid for our upcoming Symphony cruise on the 23rd. Wait, did you just steal the room I bid on? šŸ˜‚
  11. Yes, the Solarium is awesome! You have absolutely made the right choice! My husband and I were on Celebrity Apex last week which we lovedā€¦but our 18 year old son would have been sooooo bored.šŸ„± We are headed on the Symphony for Spring break on the 23rd and looking very forward to it. Have fun!
  12. Thank you! I decided I could use that money for new kitchen appliances! šŸ˜‚ Bad impulse buy on my part. Iā€™ve got D+ so I donā€™t know what came over me-
  13. How do I do it? I canā€™t seem to find where to cancel it on the app or website. Do I have to call and if so what number please? Thanks!
  14. How about an update, Chris! šŸ˜ You must be aboard now, yeah?
  15. Why thank you very much! Iā€™m happy to hear all of this. Weā€™ve been sailing mainly on Royal for the past 20+ years, so we really have no clue what weā€™re doing on this one, Lol! But looking very forward to a more adult experience!
  16. Hi cruise friends! We are sailing on our first Celebrity cruise, Apex in March and I was thinking I may need to make dining reservations for the complementary restaurants, but it says they are sold out! Soā€¦now what? Do we just walk up and put in our name like at a regular restaurant? Can we make reservations on board? Are we stuck eating at the buffet? Will we starvešŸ˜‚? Please advise!
  17. There is a security checkpoint that you go through before you get on the ship where they X-ray your carry on stuff-just like the airport. You donā€™t need to do anything special, just put your bag with the 2 bottles of wine on the belt and claim it on the other side, same as whatever else you are carrying onā€¦
  18. My son is now 18 and he has been on pretty much all the classes of ship since he was 2 years old. I would highly recommend any Oasis class ship-so Symphony, Wonder, Harmony, Allure or Oasis. So much for a 10yo to doā€¦Flowrider, rock climbing, ice skating, mini-golf, ping pong,The Abyss slide, swimming, super fun shows, lots of places to eat. Also I can recommend the Odyssey which has a few different things like laser tag and bumper cars. I would not go for the smaller ships as it looks like you are already doing that this year. Voyager class is ok, too-But I just got off Explorer and was personally a bit off put by the condition of the ship. Old and tired and in need of renovations and paint. Explorer appeared to be ā€œrode hard and put away wetā€ šŸ˜‚Was on Adventure 2 years ago and she was still in pretty good shape. I would pick the Independence or Freedom over any voyager class ship as the are newer and in better shape and have essentially all the same ā€œstuffā€ and not quite as large as Oasis, if you donā€™t want mega-ship. Iā€™m sure heā€™ll have a great time no matter what you choose!
  19. Hello everyone! I just wanted to post a follow up about this topic on my experience aboard Explorer during the holidays. They did NOT allow us to use our D+Bogo dining benefit at all during this cruise. I asked at dining reservations and the Diamond lounge concierge and they both told me no can do. I asked if I could use it later in the cruise, nope. I asked why and they said no D+ benefit or any discounts allowed during this cruise. I was a wee bit frustrated as my son had just turned 18 and had acquired this benefit as well. Oh well, maybe next time!
  20. WhatheF*! I book GTY all the time and canā€™t believe Royal actually think this is acceptable business practice.
  21. Call me kookieā€¦.but why is anyone allowed in the suite lounge besides those who are actually staying in a suite? I donā€™t understand why pinnacles are allowed in there except if they are staying in a suite. I call foul here. Or maybe it should be ā€œ fowl!ā€ Cluck! These peeps, pun intended, should get the lounge to themselves as per what they paid for, not have to share with the pinnacles. If I were fortunate enough to afford a suite, and went to utilize the suite lounge which is supposed to be included in my cruise-and it was completely full due to overcrowding by pinnaclesā€¦I would not be happy. I say give the pinnies their own space to enjoy their hard earned rewards. And Iā€™m saying this as a hopeful, maybe someday pinnacle, D+ ā€¦.
  22. Yay for the LabadooZie! It really does fix whatever ails you!
  23. Youā€™re fine-you do not need the other parentā€™s permission. That signed form is if you are traveling with someone elseā€™s kid.
