No No No Bon Voyage!

That is a CORRECT post, of course. But I will add that, outside of the "sisters", Radiance is the other ship in the fleet that has Samba Grill. 🙂

You always have the option NOT to post.

Ask in the Windjammer.

Generally, I skip any main and just eat off the buffet apps, salads and sides. But last time I tried the Lamb Tagine. (this was new since my previous visits). DE.LI.CI.OUS. Then the next time, I asked for double tagine and no chop. PERFECT. I have also been known to just drop by for some takeout baklava. 😉

Water, yes. Soda or Juice, no.

I "always" book the same cabin on BxB. If I have one cruise booked, and decide to add an adjoining cruise, I look to see if "my" cabin is available, and if it is, I take is as a sign to go ahead and book. 🙂 I just added a 3rd to a B2B, and "my" cabin is not available, so I broke my rule. 1. I took the cabin two doors down. 2. I'll try RoyalUp for a change, since I would have to move anyway. Making lemonade out of lemons. 😄

or juice. Any non-alcoholic beverage. Material doesn't matter.

I am going to disagree with a lot of the posters so far. I have been on almost every ship in RC's fleet, some multiple times. I have done several transatlantic cruises. I have no interest in sailing a TA on the Enchantment. 1. Middle of the pack 2. Old, can be crowded because when they stretched her and added many cabins, they did NOT enlarge the theater or the Windjammer buffet. Those can get crowded and congested. 3. OV are quite small on the Enchantment. I would only get one on Deck 4. And not too far forward. (not forward of the elevators). There is no refrigerator (which is really a cooler) in an OV or interior. (except the 16 IM cabins midship on Decks 7 & 8, which usually sell out very fast). 4. You won't be able to access the Concierge Lounge or Diamond Lounge, but those are "hard to find" and you probably wouldn't even know that they are there. On a TA, they may take over part or all of the Viking Crown Lounge at some times of the day. 5. As stable as any ship. Weather is unpredictable. 6. Enchantment drink package prices have been high in relation to other ships, IME, so watch for lower prices on holiday "sales". But beware that whole "sale" thing. It can be, ahem, confusing. 7. DO NOT BUY THE Unlimited Dining Package. I think that Royal Caribbean has brass balls even offering it on the Enchantment. ONE specialty restaurant. ONE. Not even a Johnny Rockets. JUST CHOPS. 7 a. I don't know how you feel, but I could not function without internet access. Enchantment does have the new Starlink system. So, I would suggest buying an internet package pre-cruise.

Enchantment is a Vision class ship, built in 1997and stretched in 2005. Serenade is a Radiance class ship that was built in 2003. Apples and oranges.

Fair seas and following winds!

I was going to write something like this. I recall some past discussions - not about breastmilk - about people who wanted the ship to store some of their personal (necessary) foods in the ship's refrigerators or freezers, and the answer was absolutely NOT.

The ONE time I decided to not carry off my own towels, and wait until I was on the island, EVERY SINGLE TOWEL STATION WAS OUT OF TOWELS.

Wait...........they stuck you with a family of 10? At a 10-top? That is absurd and unacceptable. No one in their right mind would do that. That's not just an "oops". That's ridiculous. Escalate if needed.

On my most recent Oasis cruise (September), my "fridge" was so bad that I requested and received a medical refrigerator to keep a few things cold. (don't frown at me; I asked and asked again that I NOT receive one if someone with actual medical needs required it)

No one has mentioned the Escape Room. So I will. I like the Escape Room. 😄

Are you sure it was RC's Jewel of the Seas, and not Norwegian Jewel?

The "medical" refrigerator that they will put in your cabin absolutely does NOT "have a freezer section. I thought I took a picture the one time I had one, but apparently I didn't. 😉

That's funny, that they printed off a letter for you addressed to someone else. And I'm really sorry that you did not get a letter in your stateroom. That is annoying, and inconvenient.

Yes. JS = not a "real" suite.

Why do you have Shari & Neal's letter and not your own?

My opinion: No. Stick with the cabin you have. (I am assuming that there are just two of you.)

Chriss, what category are you trying to book?

Go to the RC website. Sign in. Click on your cruise. Click on Plan My Cruise. You should be able to see how much OBC you have, either in a popup or in the top navigation bar. When you put an excursion in your shopping cart, and go to check out, it will ask if you want to pay with your OBC.
