The comedy club is a small venue and gets filled up very quickly . Dont cancel if you feel you cant get another slot. Its the hardest one to get into, from the standby line. All the others , not so much.

I heard the Seinfeld Soup n**i is the head chef on that ship ..... NO FOOD FOR YOU !

I would go with traditional early dining with that many people. You will have a reserved table. MTD starts around 645 pm , and you may have a long wait for a big table. With little ones , its no fun waiting around especially if they are hungry.

Why would anyone slam you , you like what you like , and thats ok . Many like Serenade , but not me , i will never book another cruise on that class.

Comedy club may be tougher to book late as its a small venue. If you are interested in that i would try to book that one in the app on boarding day .

Track is covered so the sun doesnt roast you. And they will allow a diamond drink voucher to purchase a smoothie too 🙂

You can use them for fresh squeezed OJ , bottled water, and specialty coffee if you arent a big drinker. As also previously mentioned you can get specialty coffee in the Crown lounge at no additional charge and not use a voucher.( You may not have access to the lounge between 5 -8 pm ) We never got through all our vouchers , so we collected bottled water at the end of the evening .

The Icon has some interesting improvements to the Indoor Promenade . Double decker promenade and the large window enhances it . My hope is that RC might incorporate those two features in future plans .

Oasis class is my favorite , yay ! Dont like any ship without a promenade . I hope they drop cruise fares on the older Oasis class as they introduce the newer ships .

My saved photo works . I wear a darker colored shirt against a light background.

My hope is all the cruise lines built new big ships to create more cabins available , so that the price hopefully goes down .

I like it , Oasis class is my favorite . And hopefully they will lower the pricing on the older ships in the class. I dont need to cruise on the new shiny ones .

Just did a mock booking , and it departs at 430 pm. I believe you need to be checked in 90 minutes prior to that time. I would want to be on the ship well before 3 pm.

We had MTD on Harmony at 630 and we would show up at 6 pm . No lines and we would be seated within 5 minutes . We needed a two top and as long as you dont mind having different wait staff it worked out nicely. The wait staff was wonderful , regardless of which floor we were sent to, as they use all 3 floors for first seating.

Riverside on Los Olas Blvd was nice. Vibrant street . Nice breakfast at the hotel ( not included ) I believe the Tower section is newer .

I have also emptied the grounds while another passenger located the beans and we had the machine up and running in minutes . 🙂

As long as i have access to the coffee machine in the crown lounge at all other times besides 5 - 8 pm, i dont mind at all .

I rarely take pictures and never get the free ones either .

I put a sheet of paper inside the outside zippered flap of the luggage with my name and cell #. This is a back up to the luggage tag on the bag. And i have an apple air tag too.

I had one when the Oasis first sailed years ago. I was near the back of the ship on deck 9 , and had great views ( prior to the slide addition ) . Good for people watching on the boardwalk , but as others have said keep the curtains closed at night. Not very noisy when the door is closed. We went back to ocean view after that one time booking.

Congratulations on reaching Diamond status . Thats where the more meaningful perks kick in . The 4 free drinks per day and use of expresso machine in the Crown lounge were my favorite. Enjoy your cruises !

Ask the concierge for a copy of the menu .

Been on all the classes except Vision class . We prefer the Oasis class and have been on that class exclusively for several years . Dont even look at other classes of ships when booking. But i have seen quite a few Icon videos and that ship seems more interesting now .

Nothing wrong with the WJ , but i prefer the dining room for dinner. Actually i prefer it for breakfast and lunch too, if its open. Less traffic and a more controlled environment. Table clothes are a nice touch too.

i have it on my phone , but i like to have a printed copy also.
