What is the cause of the poor air quality there, is it from the Canadian wildfires?

🤔

Not that I'm aware of, but you never know, right? 🙂

Same here for our Apr '24 sailing. Voom will probably come back down before then. Regardless, we're only doing Voom. The Key is still not worth the cost for us, either way.

Sounds like we got a deal ($70.99) for our upcoming Explorer sailing 🙂

Well, since the thread has been resurrected (and for another Royal newbie), is it better in general to check in using the app or via one's online account on a PC?

Well then it might be worth it! Lol

Yep... totally silly.

Gobbeldy gook..

Okay, here we go.. your quote: "Dress as you like, whatever YOUR definition of "Formal" or "Casual" is." That, by definition leaves it WIDE open, from naked to flip flops and bikinis on formal night. And you're okay with that?

Actually, it's 'Karen', but but let's not split hairs.

Would you like me to quote you?

Point is, there are guidelines on what 'casual' attire is. Not just, as you suggested, whatever you 'feel like' wearing.

You have not refuted my argument, other than to say 'get off my lawn'. Do you have anything else?

Problem is that I can get all that without spending the extra money. I'm still not getting the benefit..

If you're paying that kind of money for the 'Welcome Lunch', I would recommend skipping it.

My point was not that obesity and alcohol abuse in others affects your health, but those conditions most certainly affect your pocketbook, in ways already pointed out.

I don't, but apparently @mugtech does.

I dunno, ask @mugtech.. they brought it up.

I don't recall God chiming in on this thread.. 🫤

I think Holland America did on our last sailing with them (March 2023), but I could be wrong on that since we had the drink package and it really didn't matter to us. 😉

And your point is...

I'm curious about this because most of the reviews I've read about The Key package is that it is most definitely NOT worth it. Especially on the smaller ships where show and activity reservations are not needed, and in some cases not even offered. We're on Explorer in April to the Eastern Caribbean with no tender ports (so that perk doesn't apply), have MTD reservations for 6:45pm every night, want to remain flexible with our embarkation day lunch plans. We plan to purchase the Voom package separately and be done with it. Am I missing anything?

Ummmm, after 24 years in the U.S. Navy, most of those years at sea; followed by 25+ years of civilian cruising, I think I know what I'm talking about.

I wouldn't like that at all. I prefer an ocean view when cruising as opposed to a view of a shopping mall.
