It was listed on the app, under dining 8:00-10:00am.  

The app isn’t very accurate until closer to sailing, I know the next sailing on oasis said breakfast at el loco the other day, but it no longer does

Just add testing at the port, bribe people with OBC if you come to port already tested and charge people that need to be tested at port

Why don't you? It should not affect anything else but your check in time may not have been reserved properly.

 

Biker, who can't think of a beneficial scenario for partial check in.

Because I don’t currently have all the information with me, don’t carry my passports everywhere I go

Does anyone know if you can just select the check in time and then come back later to do the rest of the check in process? It shows a green check for the arrival time just want to make sure if I come back later my time won’t be changed because I didn’t complete the rest of the check in

Yes I will admit I did bring up the topic to guest services,  I guess over 12 fully vaccinated is not happening on Adventure any longer.

This is what they said at guest services?

Just saw adventure is on its way to port Everglades for a medical emergency 

I can’t say I’m excited at all, have adventure in 40 days and honestly feel it’s probably 50/50 that it will even happen…I’ll be excited when I step foot on the ship

Thanks for the live review! Have you heard what the capacity is on this sailing?

Michael Bayley states test cruises will be from Bayonne

 

 

I’m famous!

thanks for all the updates thought out your journey, many have lived vicariously through you and other bloggers this week!

Heard there are only 900 passengers for the 6/19 sailing, really makes me worry my Sept AOS will not happen, can’t imagine they can continue these sailings at that capacity to make it profitable…hopefully I’m wrong, I really need a cruise!

Bird - Thanks a bunch for the reviews and info.   You really helped us understand what to expect when we arrive tomorrow.  Did everyone get their test results?  Any issues?

I’m not even going until September and I’ve been refreshing all the various bloggers and what not to see if there have been any issues…can’t imagine how you feel…hopefully everything is going smoothly with the tests

You go to the bar and get a refill. 

Are you positive the freestyle machines aren’t on? Thought I saw a blogger say there was someone stationed there filling for you

So much for spontaneity.

There is also a line for people without reservations, you can still just walk up but it might take a few minutes to be seated

I used air2sea for the first time with my AOS sailing in September, I feel I got really good rates, did a mock booking and it appears the cruise price has gone down for my sailing...if I call and reprice the cruise does that have any effect on the airfare?

That’s exactly what I had to do.  Got bored with it by the time I got to the “choose your cabin” screen though. Definitely has something to do with them adding that “Cruise with Confidence” logo as it lights up every time I tap the screen.  🙄

Yep, rccl high quality web design in effect

Are you using a touch screen, was just able to get through a mock booking on my iPad but I had to keep tapping the continue button in different spots, almost like the area to tap isn’t lined up with the screen, if that makes sense

Having the same issue on my iPad and iPhone

Nope, I received an email that my final payment was due soon, the cruise it was for is already cancelled

I see you live in Bethlehem,  PA.  Have you considered taking Trans Bridge to the port and parking your car at LVIA?  Cheap parking and reasonable rates to ride the bus. Even cheaper if you’re a senior. That way you’d get home by noon and have the day to do laundry, etc.  

 

My husband and I take the bus for every cruise out of Bayonne - so convenient and economical!

We will put that on our list of options, our friends seem to be leaning towards going on the second leg so we may have use that option to get there then ride back with them after the second cruise

No perks for a side-to-side.  You will have to wait for your next cruise to get the perks of Emerald.

 

 

Didn’t know that was what they called it, now I have a new term to search....thanks!

We just booked our first back 2 back cruises for our 15th anniversary, well I guess its not really a true back 2 back since we will be going on two different ships with a day in between, Adventure Sept 24, 2020 - Oct 3, 2020 to NE/Canada then on Oasis from Oct 4, 2020 - Oct 11, 2020 to Cococay Perfect day. 

Anyone that has done back 2 backs on different ships are there any perks like the true b2b people get, I am assuming not but maybe I'm missing something.

We live about an hour and half from Bayonne so we are now deciding our plans for the day in between, if we are going to drive/park or have someone drop us off.  If we drive we will pack a different bag to swap out the warmer clothes for the shorts. We are also trying to talk some friends into coming for the second leg of our trip, if that happens we can make them bring our second bag!  Maybe we will just go home and drive back (this is the least likely choice).  Any suggestions on places to stay for that single night?

We will go from platinum to emerald on the second cruise, do you get those benefits that cruise or do you get the new benefits on the next cruise after you reach the new level?

We are really excited (we got the $18 glitch for the first leg), this will be our first cruises in over 10 years, can't believe it's over a year until we sail but I will live vicariously through others on here until then. 

Happy Cruising!!

so basically having platinum status does nothing, since there are almost always some kind of "fake" sale that will reduce this discount

ok, thought that might be the case

Do you see the breakdown of this discount anywhere or is it just factored into the price that is offered when you book.  I didn't see any discount on booking, just the bogo and flash sale discounts.  Tried doing a test booking on two different browsers, one with me logged in and the other without and both have the same prices for balcony rooms.

If you want to stay with fixed (traditional) seating, then request your table for two from rcldining@rccl.com about 3 weeks before the cruise.

Thanks will give that a try
