We both got this offer. It must have been added in the afternoon yesterday (Sunday) b/c I had checked earlier in the day and we didn't have anything. No idea what this is about....

THANK YOU ! This is exactly what I need to know. VERY helpful.

What did you think of the suite ? We stayed in this room in Dec 2019 and it is still our favorite room on any ship.

We sailed on Vision for the first time in April and absolutely loved the ship.

This seems to be recurring answer...so as long as we make the reservations (and pay) on night 1 or 2, we should be able to eat any time. Sounds reasonable.

How much luck are other having with applying their BOGO to nights later than 1 or 2 ? I mean....have you been able to use your BOGO on nights later in the week or are they being very strict about making you use your BOGO on nights 1 or 2 ?

Awesome ! I’m going to try this on my upcoming Serenade sailing 7-6. Thanks again ! Do the VOOM folks know how to do this or do you have to get the casino involved ?

Interesting…I didn’t think they would give you a [casino or C&A] discount on a partial-cruise plan. Thanks !

Nice to see that Joyce is still around. I hadn't heard her name at all since the restart - likely b/c she is on Ovation. I used to know most of the Genies. Now I know very few of them. So many more than there used to be !

So $200 is all that is at stake ?

Could the OP book a fully refundable cruise; then change the booking once he/she decides on a cruise they want ? It may cost $100 for the change, but it’s better than losing the future booking.

I suspect that they are waiting so that they can determine what the price will be for 2024 and beyond....much like they're doing for the specialty restaurant prices.

I think JR is open on the I class ships, but not until after lunch.

...and the most pleasant...

This is the most disturbing part of the article !

So, if you opt out of the C&A perks, does that include being barred from the specialty restaurant (Chops) breakfast ? That would be a hard NO for me.

Kinda surprised that the segmenters cannot bring wine onboard. Also surprised to hear that the segmenters have ANY complimentary excursions.

Such as... ?

Yes

I will probably upgrade at some point. I always think I can tolerate an inside room but then end up upgrading anyway. LOL

I really do not know the answer to this.

For the past couple of cruises, I have gotten my rejection email before we get on the ship. In cruises prior to that, we would get the rejection email after we boarded. I think they are refining the process somewhat..but who knows....

What I have "heard" (read) is that they are charging those who made the online reservation, pre-cruise the full price (that is to say...the price that they paid online, not full onboard price)...IOW, they are not allowing them to use the pre-made reservation as one of their package meals. I really think it's dependent upon the ship and who you get to help you with the "conversion". I think you will be in a better position if you have the UDP than if you have only a 3-night package. Hopefully it's much ado about nothing and you will be fine.

Yeah....we're in a promenade inside. Not the greatest cabin but it's something we've never been in before....so it will be an adventure !

Yeah, wouldn't it be great if they nixed the stop in Nassau and added another night in Bermuda ?
