We flew out of FLL this past October on the way home from a cruise. We were escorted to the TSA desk by the Clear person and all we had to show was our boarding passes.

That's what I don't understand. How do they each get 14 combined for 28 when it is on the same sailing. 14 would be applied to each of their accounts vice 28 applied to each. So they would still have the same number of points. Maybe Greg can explain once he gets home.

This is one of the things I like about the way Celebrity does their bookings. All Suites get the Deluxe Beverage Package, unless you specifically book a cruise only fare, and so all the speciality coffee's are free. They also have a wonderful coffee machine in their suite lounge.

But then why would they need two cabins? That would be 28 points for a single cabin. See why I am confused? Also, I read hist post as this was a recent booking based on a recommendation from his TA now booked under the double points promo.

Good luck. I doubt you will have much of a problem with an hour and a half turn around. Interesting you could not check your bags all the way through. Getting your bags, checking them with Delta, and going through Security is going to eat into that time as well. You'll be lucky if you get to visit the Delta Sky Lounge.

I submitted via the web site above on 10/6. Yesterday, I received an email said they could not read the file I sent, a .png formatted picture. I converted it to .PDF and just re-submitted via the web site again. This is for three cruises, one Royal and two Celebrity, in 2023.

Your drinks, up to $14.00, will be covered by your Diamond vouchers. You do not pay gratuity. You will not get a bill, they will just bring you back your drink, and your card if they took it.

I read that i still do not see how they both get 14 points each and it is additive to both of them. I can understand if one has more points than the other the one with the most would get 14, not 28, and both would then have the the highest number.

Do you know Bad Ass Coffee Company on Maui was still in business? We use to drink a lot of that when we lived in Hawaii and at one time was able to find it here in Northern Virginia. They have a Kona Peaberry that was wonderful.

So are you saying that your wife will get 14 points for her solo balcony and you will get 14 points for your solo balcony and they will add to each other's points total giving you both 28 points for this cruise? I had no idea it worked that way if you were on the same cruise.

I had no idea. Thanks for correcting me.

Yes, sharing is ground upon but I am sure many fill the cup with their partners choice and share in the privacy of their cabin.

Only for alcohol.

I know of no Junior Suites that have two toilets.

It functions exactly like a normal toilet.

If I understand it correctly, the SL Concierge are not part of the gratuties program. We also tip them depending on the level and quality of service they provide. I agree 100%, Romana was the best SL Concierge we have encountered on Royal Caribbean. She was always offering to book us into iFly and North Star, even though we were booked on those our first cruise. I am anxious to see if there is as much interaction with the SL Concierge on Harmony as there was with Romana. It has been our experience that the SL Concierge's on the Oasis Class ships are really focused on the Pinnacles and Star Class cruisers. I believe the location of the Quantum Class Suite Lounge had a lot to do with her being more accessible. Now if only had a bar that was open 1100-2300 🙂

I remember Harvey Wallbangers from my early Navy days. I once got into a 'discussion' with a bartender on the price. It seems, because of the way the bar menu charged a premium for speciality drinks, a Harvey Wallbanger was $1.00 more than an Italian Screwdriver .. but they are the same drink. But hey, that was in the 70's when I was young.

My aren't we spoiled 🙂

Get that bottle's grand daddy and put the baby back to grow up.

The closest one to us is 27 miles away. I can not tell you when the last time we went to the PX it is just not the convenient or that much of a savings any more. However, when we do go there, alcohol is one of the things i do stock up on, especially Bailey's Irish Cream.

Is that the area that is separated by a short wall? I believe they had that sectioned off for "Diamond Breakfast" area on one of our cruises. Loved that location as it was quiet and as you said, very close to the kitchen but not so much that it was bothersome.

I have friends that buy Black Box Cabernet Sauvignon in the 3 liter boxes and swear by it. We just had a discussion last night on our monthly virtual meeting about the difference in prices for it, depending on which store you bought it at. Ranged from $13.99 to 21.99 for the same item. My plan is to buy some and try it once my current inventory goes down a little more.

Royal Caribbean considers each cruise as an independent cruise. Separate booking number is given to each one whether B2B or B2B2B2B...2B. On our last BTB, we had checked in for the second leg. On turn around day they asked us for our room number and gave us our new keys (Set Sail Pass). The couple next to us had not done the check in and had to got through all the steps, Credit Card, Pictures, etc. before they received their room key. So, is it mandatory, no. Does it save you a few minutes - yes. None of us doing the B2B were taken to the off ship holding area until everyone had been processed, including the family of four that showed up late.

Thanks. I have stopped taking a camera with me, even my Nikon point and shoot. My iPhone 13 Pro Max takes amazing pictures and apparently the 12 does as well.

I have had few, if any issues, with it on my iPad.
