  1. Thanks @OCSC Mike & @firefly333 It's so funny that even though the primary per day is $20.99 the calculation on 4 devices between Easter '24 Anthem and October '24 Symphony sail is different. October sail is $293.93 vs the Easter sail of $279.93.🤣
  2. Just a question, I've got 2 rooms booked. My son & family (3) will be next to mine. I originally booked the internet for 3 devices as a Xmas present and it cost $279.83 and averages $13.32 pp/pd. If I included a 4th for myself the price totals $293.93 for an average $10.50pp/pd. Will I be able to log on even though I'm in a separate cabin. Can't recall what info is required to log on.
  3. The only excursion sale that I saw was Nassau Blue Lagoon deluxe beach break for $72.99 pp on the October Symphony's sail. The April one is $82+ pp
  4. So far on my Easter '24 and Symphony October sails the followeing seem to nb on sale. Jamie's & Hooked seafood: $14.99. Pasta day special was $15.99. UDP: $249.99. lower than previously advertised Refreshment package: $23.99 and soda $8.99 Internet: $20.99 Key is still high and no changes to dinner SR.
  5. Cheaper in the cruise planner, unless you have promo of free days or casino discount. Yes to your second point. There can be a max of 4 devices to one registered passenger.
  6. That is the reason that I chose the $500 as it was restricted to 7 nights only, whereas the same identical cruise of February 2022 was gratis even with the upgrade to Oceanview balcony. Only taxes & fees incurred. Rules changed, don't know when.
  7. I can only give you an illustration from my experience. Go to your Casino Royale account and when you see the offer click redeem and follow the instructions There will follow a page that will ask certain questions such as ship, date of sail, etc. Once finished and submit the request, an e-mail will follow to see if accepted. Ps. There is also a $ value as trade in for any sails. For instance, I wanted to upgrade from the interior to a balcony, but the pricing was not up to what I expected. The trade in value was $500 and I used it towards a February 8 night sail on Anthem and after the C&A balcony discount and the solo supplement it cost about $750.
  8. Royal needs the cash flow to pare down its debt.🤣
  9. Wish one could resell a cabin in the open market. Be able to make some series bucks. For instance, I booked about a year ago, as a Xmas present, an ocean view balcony cabin for my son & family (3) on Anthem sailing Easter Sunday and was selling for $3,158. Although not an exact comparison. but will provide a good indication of the increased pricing. Currently only ocean views w/large balcony are available and the fare totals $6,443 😊 There's a C&A balcony discount of $226 in both pricing.
  10. Good news, hope it translates into actual savings.😊
  11. On Oasis there were some 4 rows in the center reserved for Suite, Pinns, D+ and Key. Tried to get my kids who were diamonds and were not allowed. The same group had the first 1-7 rows reserved for the Ice Show.
  12. I haven't read all of the posts and I'll be on Harmony on December 3. Does the WJ have a made to order omelet/egg station. Also, this will be my first sailing from Galveston and wondering how the traffic is from the airport.
  13. Also, when there are activities planned at the promenade.
  14. If you enjoyed, We Will Rock You, you might enjoy the new production on Oasis "The Sky." I know it's a bit raunchy but one of the funniest skits was the comedian at the Adult Comedy. His take on the excursion "Swimming with the Pigs" was absolutely hilarious.
  15. That's tough--3 straights nights. That's close to verbal harassments.😆
  16. Primarily, the Aqua and the Ice show. The Aqua show takes my breath away especially when they dive from the highest point of the arena. I've seen Cats so many times and was going to miss it on my October 20 Oasis sail, but my granddaughter who loves Cats as she's taking dancing lessons convinced this old timer to give it one more time. She wanted to sit at the aisle seat at the 3rd row and was scared to death when one of the performers was lying next to her in the aisle during the performance.😆
  17. I've been on Anthem and Oasis twice this year with the latest on October 20 and have not experienced a direct request for a certain grade. What I have received is a reminder of how important the survey is to them. If you feel that strongly contact Royal Guest Experience Management--800.256.6649
  18. Was more pronounced years ago. They basically came out and told us that any rating under a 9 was not acceptable. Now what I get on the last night is a reminder of the importance of completing the survey because it is a reflection to those affected by the survey. If you infer that as begging, then I don't know what to tell you. If I recall and maybe someone can confirm didn't Royal came out and put out some instructions and also the wait staff were warned on how they go about in reminding Paxs on the importance of the survey.
  19. Mine does not disappear unless there's an expiration date. If you felt so strongly in your feedback, you could have done a review of your experience(s) on this board. I've done a few myself.
  20. The Quantum class has the best set up of all of the Royal fleet.
  21. Are you implying that only those individuals on this or some other forums are the real cruisers. That's absolutely insane. The CC population that sails on Royal or some other company is a minor pimple to the overall customer base. Surveys covering all aspects of the cruising experience are sent out as soon as the cruise is completed. I know that I get one and complete it as soon as I receive it.
