You are not alone. Many on Anthem's easter sail were getting replacements. I replaced mine on th 6th day.

That’s my experience as Allure has not been amped. When I sailed on Oasis and Anthem all I needed was tap my card to get into cabin.

Cabana's perk, and not included in the buffet for lowly Paxs.😁

Yes. When we are in Aruba, we take a taxi to the Hyatt at Palm Beach and walk to the beach. Beaches are free and usually there's an individual(s) you can rent a lounger and umbrella.

Here's a list of entertainment from my January 8 niter.

Miami Vice--Primarily rum, coconut cream, and strawberry puree. You need a plastic straw as the one they give you on board will break halfway and you'll be sucking air.😁

It was crowded with Anthem and Indy on Easter. Anthem was at 80% capacity and with some 1,200 kids. Never saw shrimps at either Coco Cay or Labadee. Lost my Cuban sandwich at Coco as one of those vultures scooped my sandwich off my plate while I was getting napkins.😜 Sometimes, it looked like a scene for movie "The Birds."

Had the same problem on Anthem Easter sail with getting reservations to North Star. The reservations on the APP supposedly open up at 8AM on port days. Tried the 1st day and message that all sold out. Tried the 2nd and same message. Finally got frustrated and asked the D lounge Concierge for help. He was able to get me reservations on the 3rd day or last port day. Don't know if the APP wasn't working or my slow typing skills.😜 PS. On sea days, there is a charge for the North Star.

That's like the Op paying for something that the Cruise line promised in their correspondence.

Only on board via the APP or go to Boleros when you board and there will be Royal staff taking reservations.

So what is your concern. Sailed Oasis in September when cruising opened up and had a fantastic time.

On the Easter sail, WWRY was not shown and we the suspect was Covid. In it's place they replaced in my opinion were 2 fantastic shows as Headliner--Frankie and the Dreamers and Beatles Extravaganza. Frankie is based on the Jersey Boys and were fantastic. The part of Frankie was played by Ryan Molloy who starred in the original London version and also on Broadway. You need to examine the daily planner as there's lots of activities from Karaoke to trivia contests. Many smaller musical activities in smaller venues. If you want to hear about repetitious, I saw Tony Tillman (singer dancer a la Sammy Davis, Jr.) some half a dozen times on the Anthem. He's no longer on the Anthem, and to my shocking surprise he was the 1st night Headliner on my January 22 Allure sail.😜

As diamond, 4 drinks are loaded to your sea pass. This is 4 per D member. D+ get 5 drinks loaded. max of $13 per drink.

Where does the trolley go? I'm on the September 3, 8 niter and our Aruba departure was changed from 11 to 8 PM. I was hoping to take one of those evening tours, but leaving at 8 it's not conducive. Loved when we sailed from San Juan and left Aruba at 1AM. Ps. My luggage was also misplaced some 10 cabins away on Anthem Easter sail. We Will Rock You was never shown. The excuse, based on the substitute act (comedian), was that the concern on the staff due to the ship's movement.😀 Since the show never took place our suspicion was that it was C related. Also, on the last night Headliner show one of the Season's of the Frankie and the Dreamers (Jersey Boys base)was missing and again possibly due to C.

We had a time of 11 AM check in. We were grouped with the 11:30 and the 12 PM groups. It seemed like an eternity for my grandchild to be registered for her test. She was a bit skittish, but when we pointed out a priest taking the test, she was assuaged. The testing was pretty quick. The entire process took 1:15 minutes from the initial line to getting on the ship. The ship's capacity was at 80% with some 1,200 children.

Link? When we sailed with my unvaxxed granddaughter on Easter Anthem sail, it was part and parcel with your scheduled time to show up. When showing documentation, we were guided to a separate line for registering for the test. The registering of the unvaxxed took an awful lot of time. Don't understand as the data was in their system when checked in on the APP. There were some 7 medical technicians giving the antigen test, and after we were escorted to a waiting area, awaiting the test results. Waited some 15 minutes and test result was relayed to my DIL phone. At that time, we were finally allowed to board.

Here’ the list from our January Allure sail

Absolutely.

I've got an Allure 8 nights sailing to the AB Islands on September 3, 2022 and not really concerned. Only once have we been impacted and it was back in early September 2019. It was a 9 nighter Anthem cruise to NE/Canada. Halifax was our final stop and we left early as hurricane (?) was heading directly to Halifax. Wound up arriving at Bayonne the night prior to disembarking. We slept docked at the pier. But, prior to that the Anthem sailed up the Hudson River all the way up to the 70s streets and saw a fantastic views of Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and the NYC and NJ skylines all lit up.

So, it's good on cruises booked prior to purchasing Royal's stock. I was under the impression that it was good on future sails. Do you know if it's combinable with the DP340 promo.

Are you looking for an invoice for a booked cruise. If so, you should have received invoice/ confirmation automatically. Many times, I get more than 1. Call Customer Service. By the way I've called CS and other departments many times over and never got a sales pitch. Ps. If you know your booking number you can get information on Royal's website.

Most of the specialty restaurants have outside seating, but in Central Park. Also, one of my favorite fast foods CP cafe is located there.

I've received credits to my CC which I have no clue. Royal CS is/was of no help whatsoever. The only good thing is that all of my FCCs have been applied. There's only a $125 remaining to be applied to an August '23 sail.

Not sure if it presently apply, but in some ports only Royal sanctioned tours was allowed. Also, what are the odds. I went on 2 tours on Anthem Easter sail to the Blue Lagoon and the Cape Kennedy excursion and not a problem at all. Bus and the boat was filled to capacity.

I do both, in case some port(s) require paper copies. In addition, I have a copy of the Vaxx card as a photo on my phone. Had since my booster shot during the pandemic as security in case I lost the original.
