    Staff Asked Me for Money

    in Royal Caribbean International

    Posted · Edited by irishgal432

    Sounds fishy. There is not a way to report private messages to facebook, you can report him to facebook to at least start an investigation. I would post on his wall and simply ask, "Have you been hacked?" I am sure he doesn't have access to his account 24/7 and this would make a perfect person to hack.

    Delay boarding Independence of the Seas

    in Royal Caribbean International

    Posted

    We were on the inbound. It wasn't much better getting off the ship today. :) This was our 40th cruise, and I've never.....ever.....seen anything like it. We missed our flight home, and had luggage tag # 1. I was able to arrange a new flight pretty easily, actually did so before we left the port, but there was so much wrong about getting off that ship today.

     

    Our original flight was 11:50am..... a little risky, but based on past experiences at Port Everglades, seemed imminently doable. It would have been normally....not today. We did make a 1:45pm flight with ease.....but keep in mind we had luggage tag 1. I don't think I'll book a post cruise flight out of FLL earlier than 2pm again.

     

    Curious if that was on Delta? I am looking at this same combination and am concerned about the cost if we miss it. What was their policy?

    On board account settlement

    Although charges from the mini bar go on the person who is listed first on the reservation. You have to go to guest services to get it charged to the correct person. When my daughter traveled with a friend and the friend and I were listed on the room since she was under 21 I had 49.00 worth of mini-bar charges charged to my folio. My daughter specifically told her not to drink/eat anything out of it because she would be charged. A trip to guest services charged it to her account.

    Considering Cancelling Cruise - Zika Virus

    in Royal Caribbean International

    At the point of booking this cruise over 6 months ago we hadn't even been referred for fertility treatment.

     

    RC has said that if I can PROVE I am pregnant (which we won't know for atleast another week as pregnancy won't show up in tests until after a certain point) then we will receive a full refund from them due to the Foreign Office advising pregnant women not to travel to these areas.

     

    In the case of the insurance who we haven't been able to get any information from about our individual case until their offices are open tomorrow, or spoken with my fertility consultant, we won't know where we stand if we cancel, "take the financial hit" and then claim the money back through our insurance.

    The alert is also for those women trying to get pregnant. If you have verification from your fertility doctor than royal should honor that and let you rebook for another time frame.

    C/A Discounts on GGG Sale ?

    in Royal Caribbean International

    Posted

    I'm confused, I don't see an "OBC credit offer" associated with the GGG sale.:confused:

     

    I guess that is my question as well. Do you get OBC with the GGG pricing? I am assuming the OBC offer is promotional and won't be applied. Am I wrong?

     

    "Offer is not combinable with any promotional offers or discounts with the exception of Crown & Anchor benefits and NextCruise Onboard Booking Bonus."

    Based on the verbage below from the GGG Sale flyer you can receive your C/A Balcony discount on the Going Going Gone sale but not the OBC credit offer.

     

    I called Royal and they said they were not sure wait until Monday to find out....:confused:

     

    Am I reading this right?

    UBER is back in Ft Lauderdale

    in Florida Departures

    Hi -

     

    Never used Uber before - thinking of trying for our trip from POM to FLL.

     

    The fare estimator appears to be about the same costs as the shared shuttles. (before any first time Uber user coupons)

     

    I noticed they list a pick up charge of $4.50 for FLL. Does anyone know if this is also an additional charge if dropping off at FLL ?

     

    Thanks a bunch

     

    I don't believe so, but they do have an additional charge to pick up from port everglades. I think 2.50.

    Unwanted Upgrade, How do I get my cabin back?

    in Royal Caribbean International

    Posted

    RCI seems to be pretty consistent on not giving double points for free upgrades, but I thought they usually gave you a gold card and associated suite benefits. Am I wrong on that?But this would make two parties happy; this is way too logical to actually happen:rolleyes:

     

    I was upgraded from a Js to a GS due to a reservation system glitch where I had the Js booked (last one) and deposit paid for but when the TA sent the payment to RCCL, it showed as booked by someone else. They called it an upgrade and I got full benefits.

    Passport Issues - Beware

    in Royal Caribbean International

    Posted

    Maybe I am missing something here...If I am understanding all this correctly, it sounds like those who do not have a passport will need this new enhanced DL. If this is the case, I can't imagine the DMV having hundreds of people trying to get their new license.

     

    If the new DL costs $30 and most states it has to be renewed every 3 or 4 years, why not get your passport that is good for 10 years? :confused:

     

     

    ***

     

    This is what happened in Georgia. Everyone had to go in and renew their licenses instead of online renewals. They had to bring proof of citizenship, birth, job etc. There were 2-3 hour waits for the longest time last year and I had a friend that waited 3 hours just last week. It took less time to get my passports renewed.
