ONECRUISER

And was this way on Vision Class in mid-90's, even on Sovereign back in 80's where only late afternoon option was Tea Time

Until Covid and Masking started my Mother and I didn't realize how bad her hearing was. Mask was only part the problem as she'd been also reading lips to help.

Don't really care for these Cans of Water but last few Cruises got plastic bottles 1/3 the time and even once Glass Evian Bottles instead, all same price

Yes the adding $5.95 was an on/off thing since Voyager's first sailings in late 90's. First Johnny's was Free but too busy/popular on first Ship with added choice of Specialty Restaurant's. Within a month the Cover was added but included a Shake. Months later this was dropped. I was on Voyager #004 back when they listed each Sailing, first cover started and Explorer #008 when it was Free again to eat(but not a Shake). Cost topic was even talked about on Cruise Critic back 22yrs ago

Agree, Thank You!

True, I know. Was on the then new Voyager sailing #004 in 90's and Explorer #008 soon after. Since 2010 only done Radiance or Vision Class, like the enclosed Solarium and smaller Ships...at least till they are gone

Dozen Cold Weather Cruises I've done the Solarium is packed, even harder get Chair then...

Used the site of yrs, didnt know it had that option. Thanks

Agree. Was on Jewel in April-May and they even had 1lt GLASS Bottles one wk then Cans the next

No problem, depend where you are some are not up at 2-3am during shutdown like I am

When looking on Royal site a few hrs before it does it will say when hrs are

Yup, though it did update my "Past Cruises" total. Until today was showing 25 more that were my canceled Cruises during CV, now removed

Normally Royal site is down for few hrs every weekend, cant remember if its Sat or Sun nite EST early am. This is something different

You usually get email that Deposit made but have to call to get detailed Confirmation.

Pretty consistent, prices are up as with demand. Not likely to find too many Good Deals as in past couple yrs or Pre-CV

Royal has had on/off issues for couple Days with 3-4 Threads then, but seems worse today. Maybe they are getting ready for a BIG SALE!!! 🤪

Port Changes Royal has always come up with new Excursions to chose from, if not before Cruise will after boarding

Me, at least half dozen times only found out AFTER Boarding or start of Cruise

Done 8 Thanksgivings on Royal Ships since 2012, Decorations went up 7 times that Thursday Nite, 8th time wasnt until Saturday

Opened for me, thanks for sharing.

Thought might be almost all my Cruises last dozen yrs have been in Fall, Radiance Class, longer Sailings with less passengers. But was curious so asked and Alaska Serenade last wks have same 8:30 closing...

Understand, thanks. Worst experiences I've had is Port Everglades surprisingly at Pier #18 and at Ft Lauderdale, multiple times. Though one of the times was couple hrs after Shoe Bomber incident, just got off Cruise and was trying figure out why we needed to remove our Shoes at FLL

Agree, post Cruise Airports I usually Fly out 1-2pm or later. More then once lines experienced lines out of were out the door where Flights were missed but not by me

Though my Spring Cruises and ones I'm on in Oct list/listed WJ Breakfast and Lunch but no Dinner hrs until after onboard... Just checked with other CC Members and WJ is currently closing at 8:30pm on Serenade, typical of most my Royal Cruises

Agree. When St Martin was hit 20+ yrs ago the then Single Cruise Ship Pier was knocked out. Our Cruise Ship went just wks after the Hurricane but had to Tender ashore Yup, where it hit and 4wks from now most likely no issue
