Yep and every other category is guarantee as the room type. Was in the middle of booking a cabin and kicked me out and said guarantee only.

Royal must be doing something with the bookings because I was in the middle of booking a balcony for March of 2024 and it randomly kicked me out and now for every category type, it only allows a guarantee as a room type. Tried on multiple different dates and stateroom types. Annoying.

Has anyone booked on icon through club royale yet? Best I could get was 5% off base fare, so wasn't sure if anyone got anything better by talking to a different customer service agent or if that's truly the best available

We've rented a jeep in Aruba before and did our own exploring. Super easy island to do it on and really impossible to get lost. Found some gorgeous local beaches. We're doing a car rental in Curaçao this upcoming January to explore on our own.

If you're referring to Lock it Link Piggy bankin, yes, they have one. In a bank with hold onto your hat, eureka, and both diamond versions of lock it link. Lost thousands in that bank about two months ago 😊

As expected I think.. Just received

So last cruise, I would transfer $1,000 to the slot. Are you saying had I only played say $100 or $200 of it and decided to move machines, my account would have been frozen since I didn't play 50% of it on that machine? Granted I never ran into the issue since I lost every time I transferred $1k but still.

I was surprised by the price increase. Don't think I can justify the cost for what you get at $1500

$1500 seems okayish for the gorgeous over water ones at Coco Cay with access to the beach club and amazing food, but these ones, struggling to justify since it's mostly just the area with no extra benefits

So then I'm assuming "Beach cabana" is just further back?

I posted this on the private island board but figured I'd try here too with more traffic and royal caribbean specific. Trying to figure out if we want to book a cabana in Labadee. The cruise is in January. We have the ability to book a barefoot beach overwater cabana through the planner, but I'm confused why since we aren't in a suite and i thought that was designated for suites and pinnacles?? Also, I can't figure out the difference in location for overwater cabana and "waterfront cabanas" at Nellie's Beach?? Price difference is $300 cheaper than the overwater at barefoot or Nellie's. The overwater cabanas at Barefoot and Nellie's are both $1,499, and water front cabana at Nellie's is $1,199.

There's also hilltop cabanas listed at barefoot and those are even cheaper, but no idea where those ones are either.

Yes. We do giovanni's every time on boarding day with the package. It'll show on your account when you finalize your "bill"

Has anyone done this recently? I was quoted $125 for the day in a mid size car?

On Ovation two weeks ago, any water or beer we put in our fridge was frozen solid by morning lol. We ended up starting to leave the fridge door slightly ajar to try and keep it from freezing everything solid.

Yes

I ended up doing an express deal on priceline, with a coupon for $20 off, I got the Cambria for $172 all in which I'm good with. Last few trips we've stayed at the guitar hotel at hard rock but with that being a holiday weekend, I don't have any free room comps unfortunately.

No tsa pre or clear. Yes to bags and likely yes for early bird

Has to be southwest due to flight credits we're trying to use up.

We don't arrive to FLL until a little after 1am. Normally I'm all for nice hotels. Since we get there so late, I'm wanting something clean and not super expensive since it's such a short stay. Everything I'm seeing for my date (check in jan 13, out the 14th) is around $250 with taxes minus a few hotels, like a Ramada, that has poor reviews with bugs. Any recommendations for somewhere near the airport, clean, and not expensive for that one night?

This January, sailing Odyssey. Other than a late night flight, the only option for Southwest is a 10:30 flight.. I'm thinking we should be okay to make it, right? Assuming no delays with the ship being cleared. Self disembark with the first group and we should be good? Those who have done it? I just really don't want to sit around until the evening flight.

We actually used Samsung smart tags for the first time last month on Odyssey and they worked well. It was nice knowing where the luggage was in the airport and was also nice knowing when the luggage arrived at the room vs periodically checking throughout the day.

On Ovation now. 16 and up. I've seen a crew member a few days ago ask a young looking teen how old he was

The drink perk is by far the best I feel. We swing by on the way to any show or dinner and grab a drink and usually one to go. Then we can use our diamond drinks on the pool deck etc. Can easily end up with 10+ drinks a day without paying for a single one.
