My daughters cruise, the final payment date is February 1. They called this morning to moved it to different ship/date. The change fee was $100 for the room.

We're beach people so we like to relax at beaches.☺️ We rented a car for 2 days. We went to Napili Bay, Makena beach + Makena Secret Cove beach (Walk up on the road, pass the speed bumps and look for the opening on the concrete wall on right side, for Secret Beach). We paid for parking at Makena beach park then saw locals and other people park their cars on the side of the road so they don't have to pay for parking and entry fees to the park. Learn something new everyday ☺️. Also make a quick stop at Wailea beach. We ate at Fish Market for lunch, it was really good. Second day we went to Whaler Village for lunch, shopping and some more beach time at near by Kaa'napali beach. This time we want to go to Wai'anapanapa state park to see the the black sand on first day at Maui. Second day we will go to Nakalele blow hole then back to Napili bay (I love this beach ).

Thank you. I will let my brother know.☺️

I am new to this too, but from what I read and get the advices on this board is that if the third person "No shows" on the boarding day, they will refund tax + port fees +pre-pay gratuity back to you. And maybe you say " He or she did not come today " Perhaps someone else can step in and answer your question more clearly ☺️

Thank you very much 😃

Thank you. I do have another question. How about pre-pay gratuity, will it refund to him as well ?

Thank you. 😀

Good morning! My brother booked a cruise on Wonder for this coming April and the final payment is not due until the 30th of this month. The room was supposed to be for him, his wife, and teenage son, but now his son changed his mind and is not going on this cruise . Would Royal put them in the central park balcony for 2 and revise the price if they update the occupancy? I checked the website and it seems that the price for 2 people now is pretty much the same as the price they booked for 3 people. Should he just leave the reservation as is and get the tax & port fee refunded when his son "no shows" for the cruise? Thank you.

I got this water shoe from Amazon, it is very light and comfy. My husband bought the one in black and he love it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08Y8PP16T?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1&psc=1

Happy New Year . Hope that 2023 will be a much better year for all of us. Happy cruising to all 🚢🌍

I think there is Kamakahonu beach next to the pier. https://www.lovebigisland.com/big-island-beaches/kamakahonu-king-kam-beach/#:~:text=Kamakahonu is also know as,hotel right on Alii Drive.

Thank you 😊

Hi all, we will be going on Ovation this coming May for a Hawaii cruise. We were on Quantum last month for a similar reversed itinerary and already have an idea of what to do in Oahu and Maui, but since we have never been to Kona I need guidance on what to do here. We're renting a car for Oahu and Maui, so would it make sense to have one for Kona too? Our ship will be there from 7am-4pm. We are beach people and like to just relax at the beach (not into snorkeling). We also love whale watching since we did it in Victoria, Canada last time. Do you need to have a car here to go to the beach ? Any decent beaches near the pier ? What excursion is a must to do here ? Thanks in advance!

I am so sorry for your loss.

I used to call C&A number but not anymore. Now I would call 866-562-7625 early in the morning or around 7-8 in the evening .I was calling the other night to get the price reduction for our cruise and only have to wait 1 minute.

We were in a balcony ocean view on Quantum last month ,got small bottles of L'Occitane, I told the room attendant that I like them. she gave us a whole bunch more 😊

Thank you 😊

Hi all, I had always like the bed next to the bathroom on ocean view balcony room. It's easy to figure out with Oasis class ships which room have beds next to the bathroom. I've sailed on Quantum of the seas for only one time at the beginning of this month. We had 8652 and it has the bed next to the bathroom as how I like it .My husband love the ship and would like to book another cruise on Ovation since it's newer. How to pick the rooms with beds next to the bathroom on Quantum class ships? Can some one please tell me which one of these rooms have bed next to the bathroom ? 8612,8616,9650,9654,9656,9658. Thank you very much.😊

On our Hawaii cruise on Quantum couple weeks ago, we asked the room attendance and got the cruise compass on the bed every night.They also had stacks of black and white mini version of the cruise compass at the Windjammer and dining rooms entrance.

Sorry, English is my second language☺️. What I meant to ask was if the dress code on Hawaii cruise more relaxed than Caribbean cruise.

How about formal nights on Hawaii cruise ? Is it the same as caribbean cruise or more casual ? Thanks.

Good morning, so if we fly to Vancouver on Saturday October 1st and boarding the ship on October 3, can we do ArriveCAN on Friday? Sorry I am so confused with this 72 hours things 😊

Around $100. We got the 2 nights dining package on Symphony for $56 and 3 nights dining on Quantum for $101. Maybe others got better prices than I did 😊

Thank you very much Martincath. I'm going to go with Eagle Wing.😊

You're right. I forgot about the Canadian dollars. Eagle Wing cost $149 and Royal wants $129 a person before tax . I think I'm going to go with Eagle Wing. Thank you.
