Midnight where the ship is when you checkin, not where it will be whrn you board. Not usually a difference.

Looks like she left a few minutes ago.

In January 2023 we did one and while a lot of guests were Spanish speakers, but also spoke English, I don't recall the shows being in Spanish.

Our next cruise is from LA and don't plan on staying up until 2 am to get an early boarding time, though as we're in a suite isn't really a problem. The cruises after that leave from Amsterdam so no problem! 6 hr time difference so midnight there is only 6 pm here. Easy! Though might be slightly different as they aren't on dst yet. Whatever, we'll be fine.

Yes, you can purchase internet for 1 day.

You pick a time when you do your checkin. I don't know a way to get the others the same time.

On aft balcony we usually have 2 of each type of chairs.

We did an aft js, deck7 on Liberty. Very nice. It does a partial obstructed view, which is the super structure but not a problem for us. Also looked down on a suite. Also not a problem as the guests were almist never out there.

Agree. Love 270!

Bumper cars are free. I-fly was but don't know now. Sometimes there's a charge for something added, like a specific lesson. The app should tell you.

When we went to the reef area on the Radiance the seas were so rough we had trouble getting off and onto the tour boat. We didn't go into the water but saw it from the glass bottom boat. Had trouble getting back on the ship also. Glad it worked for John. Looks calm.

Doesn’t have to be alcoholic. Soda, bottles of water, virgin drinks, fresh sqeezed oj. Your call.

We were supposed to stay on for the 3rd cruise to NZ. That was the one that was cancelled.

We were also there. We had the choice to leave that evening or the next day. Had no problem making hotel reservations for that night. Ate dinner before we got off. Cabin attendant helped us with our luggage and walked us to a taxi. At the hotel booked a 2nd night. Following morning booked our flights home. Change fees were about $85 each. No big deal. On our day in Sydney took a tour, had a nice dinner. Agree about apps on your phone and credit cards. Be ready to be flexible.

Glad I'm not the only one. I think what triggered this was that I noticed our cruise had dropped in price, $600, and asked ta to see if she could get the adjustment. She said she did and waiting for confirmation. Shortly after I got the email about the balance due. Royal IT needs work.

I received an email from Royal this am that I had a balance due on an internet package purchased November 2023 for a November 2024 Voyager cruise. Told to call and pay. My records show paid using obc and money. I called the C&A number, not the number in the email in case it was a scam. Well. Royal IT messed up again. For unknown reasons IT had refunded part of what I paid with obc. The person I spoke with repaid it with the refunded obc. Stayed on the phone until I got the paid email. Crazy IT.

So sorry about that loss. Hope you get some of your money back. Assuming you'll stop at Port Headland and/or Geraldton, mining towns. Not used to cruise ships but nice.

Enjoy. Let's hope the 3rd times the charm.

Enjoy the circumnavigation. We did it in 2020 on the Radiance. Was supposed to go to NZ after but covid cancelled that trip. Western Australia was so different from the big cities.

We love the bumper cars! Lunch at 270 boarding day.

I do. She's a good dil.

Ta is my dil so......

Agree, but sometimes they don’t forward it as quickly as that.

Always get a confirmation. If I have a ta, it goes through them. I always follow up to make sure I get it within a day or two. If I'm dealing directly with Royal I don’t get off the phone until I get the email.

Ok, you're correct but my memory it was very limited. We went once, it was interesting but once was enough. Sounds like they made changes, which is good.
