  1. In our experience on B2B around noon on turn around day the first cruise account closes out and the second cruise account opens. The first cruise items that were unused are gone!
  2. from Google: Royal Caribbean's new terminal at Port Miami will serve as home port to several Royal Caribbean International ships, including two of the world's largest cruise ships, Allure of the Seas and Symphony of the Seas. The world's largest cruise ships finally have a place to park in Miami.Feb 7, 2019
  3. https://www.miamidade.gov/portmiami/library/portmiami-map.pdf
  4. The majority of Royal Caribbean shows run exactly 45 minutes. The exceptions being reconstituted theater shows.
  5. Triominoes Scoring can be by the game rules or simply who goes out first wins. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triominoes We use a Deluxe set since they are easier to shuffle.
  6. I have had to use a rollator for a few years now as a portable chair when needed. The one I use now is quite sturdy which replaced a more flimsy version. I primarily use it when cruising since I never know where seating is immediately available. Google: Drive Medical RTL10266 Nitro Euro-Style 4-Wheel Rollator Walker With Seat, Red
  7. Actually, if you are handicapped at Terminal 5 there is an elevator available. Rather than go to the left to take the ramp, walk straight ahead like you are walking to the stairs and you will come to the elevator.
  8. Same here. It doesn't look like that matters to us. Probably for their record keeping. Glad we got past this milestone 😉
  9. We submitted our requests at the 30-day point and it didn't seem to make any difference!
  10. Did you print out a form for each person after they were initialed?
  11. Actually, they are contract employees under contract to the cruise line!
  12. I have since called the 800 number since we are scheduled to take our tests late Friday before Saturday departure. I was on a count down hold starting at customer 87 for nearly 3 hours. We did get our green waiver which merely requires we show up at PC with our vaccine cards and test results within 2 days of departure.
  13. We received the expected follow-up email from Bermuda for the update on our Covid tests which we have scheduled for Friday. We're on Mariner Saturday.
  14. Thanks for the heads up! Since we are going on Mariner to Bermuda on the 28th with stops in the Bahamas before Bermuda we are only in the Pending pool with the Bermuda Authorities. I have emailed them requesting clarification since we sail in less than a week.
  15. For what it's worth Labadee is a private RCI resort area not an island.
  16. It appears that based on the published schedule Mariner will be the only ship using Terminal 5 for "Home Porting". All other ships are showing" Port of Call". Thus, parking at Terminal 5 should only be for Mariner during those times. Unless Murphy says otherwise 🙂
  17. This says it all: https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/what-are-your-health-and-sanitization-standards Q What are your health and sanitization standards on the ship? What guidelines apply and how do you know they are sound? How is the crew trained to implement them effectively? A In compliance with strict standards set by U.S. Public Health Services (USPHS) and the Vessel Sanitation Program (VSP), our ships have always been maintained using the most rigorous cleaning regimens. Now, with guidance from our Healthy Sail Panel, we've evaluated every element of our cleaning protocols and enhanced those regimens to meet medical-grade standards. All ships are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized prior to every voyage, and consistently and frequently throughout your sailing, with disinfecting cleaning agents and techniques that have been certified by health authorities as effective against SARS-Cov-2 (coronavirus). All chemicals are EPA-certified, alcohol-based, scentless, and safe for the general population. High-traffic and frequently touched areas like elevators, escalators, stairways, and promenades are cleaned every two hours and gangway rails every 20 to 30 minutes during busy times. Staterooms are cleaned daily and only while guests are out of the room, with particular attention paid to frequently used items and surfaces. All stateroom and housekeeping attendants will be continuously trained on the latest sanitization guidelines. We'll ensure cleaning standards are upheld through frequent stateroom inspections using black light technology to show surface wiping efficacy. Crew will have mandatory, ongoing training classes and refreshers that are documented to ensure all the latest protocols are being followed, in compliance with various international regulations, including the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW), and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

  19. With 3 ships homeported at Port Canaveral RCI will have to use more than one terminal when the need requires. We are on Mariner in May and only found out that we are going out of and return to Terminal 5 by using this: https://www.portcanaveral.com/getattachment/Cruise/Cruise-Lines-Schedules/CPA-Website-Schedule-Apr-Jun.pdf.aspx?lang=en-US RCI does not notify guests which terminal they are using. It would be nice to have it on the SetSail Pass!!!!
  20. The only viable solution I can see is to change the nephews' booking to the same suite level as you. Not familiar with the suites on this ship but is there one with two guest rooms that would accommodate all of you?
  21. We just got off Mariner this month. There was no Cruise Compass listing per se in the App. Maybe this is being added since some ships are not providing printed versions anymore. Does it appear in the App similarly formatted like the printed version?
  22. Only those on the current sailing are able to see that! I have a future booking on Mariner and even that doesn't have any info loaded yet.
