Would like to see the pre-cruise Covid testing become a voluntary thing instead of a mandate.

Oh dear, hope you have a mild case and recover quickly.

Minimum bid was $600/pp. We bid $700. So our total was $1400.00.

Thank you!

I just got the Congratulations email, got our Royal Up for our July 16 Symphony cruise. Bid $100 over minimum and went from a guaranteed JS to a Crown Loft Suite.

Yeah it is quite the drive, not my favorite. Now outside of Sarasota and it has rained all the way here.

Overcast grey skies and rain in Ft. Lauderdale. We just left the condo to do a family weekend in Tampa area, on Alligator Alley and it is raining. Hope that once we get over to Naples and then head North, that weather will improve.

@LadyBeBop https://twitter.com/JamesVanFleet Try this link. He posted three videos this morning to describe what may happen, for each ship in the area.

James Van Fleet @JamesVanFleet · 4h PM Tropics Update for in bound @RoyalCaribbean Guests this Friday/Weekend regarding developing storm. Models coming together better this evening, and it is possible we see Port closures on Saturday. They are NOT currently, but given the new data, I am anticipating it’s possible.

James Van Fleet @JamesVanFleet Tropical Video Update: Remnants of Agatha becoming TS Alex in the days ahead. @RoyalCaribbean Mariner of the Seas will be leaving Bermuda early to allow time for storm avoidance. We will have a better idea of what we have this weekend in the next 24 hours for everyone else.

Yes, I just got that email. Glad that Royal is doing this.

Have a great cruise!

My all-time favorite is Allure, because it was our first Oasis-class ship, and I love the fact that it still does not have the Abyss on Boardwalk or the water slides on the pool deck. My next favorite is Wonder because it was a brand-new ship and also because of all the great restaurants (loved the Mason Jar, and Hooked, and Hibachi was also very good). My third favorite is Odyssey because when we sailed last Fall it was an incredible, brand-new ship, and we had a fabulous Royal Up to the Owners Loft Suite.

Loved the pictures of you and your mom. Enjoying your review, we have had the Royal Suite on Mariner and also on Enchantment, one of our all-time favorite suites.
