I guess you and I interpreted the original comment differently. I understood that she was 'ticked' at Royal for jacking her around in getting the cruise re-booked after canceling her booking for missing final payment. While you apparently understood that she was 'ticked' at herself for missing the final payment deadline, and thus had to go through all the hassle of getting the cruise re-booked. Either interpretation is plausible, right?

I realize this is probably overkill, but I have about 2-3 different reminders in various places (PC, phone, calendar, etc.) of when final payment is due for any booked cruises. And then I pay about 7-10 days early. There's really no excuse for missing it..

Nope, just disagreed with your statement about rules is all..

"She was ticked".. She missed final payment, so what followed that was all on her. Not sure why she 'was ticked' at Royal for the consequences of her error.

Rules are rules.. Whether they're broken or not is another topic of discussion.

That's how we felt after 25+ years cruising on other lines. But we're coming back to Royal after a 24 year hiatus from them (last sailed with Royal in '99 on ROS). Hope we're not disappointed..

But perhaps a necessary choice if one deems it important enough to assured of employment in a 100% smoke-free environment.

One of the MANY reasons we don' do guarantees..

They have a choice on whether or not to work for a cruise company that allows smoking on their ships.

Agree 100% with your point about cabin location. For us, location is the most important aspect of cabin selection. And this means we don't do guarantees..

That's quite a list! I've enjoyed Maker's 46, WT Rare Breed, OGD, Russel's and Elijah Craig. 🙂

I don't believe that for a second, nice try though! 😉

That's just wrong.. 6-y/o granddaughters do NOT understand the significance of really good bourbon!

That's okay, you can apply the exact same logic to your individual situation 😉

Good luck! (yes, pun intended) 🤣

$71/pp as of today..

😥

Where's the 'Rip 10' in the photo, long time Bourbon aficionado trying to keep up with the current trends. My go-to's have always been Maker's and Woodford, and am just learning to enjoy BT. Any recommendations on what I should try next (considering that we have the DBP)? 🤔

Looks like a tiny (shot) glass to me. Is that actual size? Otherwise, agree 100% with the BT Old Fashioned! 👍

Is this in addition to the prepurchased DBP which includes the 18% gratuity?

What's the Advil for?... Lol

Right... But it makes them feel good, like they're actually getting something for nothing. 😉

Agree.. Woodford is decent but not THAT good 😲

Remember the old saying (which is true IMO), that typically only the unhappy disgruntled folks are likely to take the time to write a review. And those folks typically represent a small percentage of all cruisers. Think of the thousands of cruisers who absolutely loved their experience and don't bother to write about it.

Really.. only Oasis and Quantum class? Sure hope not.
