I was wrong. Not 2918, 2019, but in 2021 of course

We can both play this game 🙂 . How did you calculate that I was wrong. Where was it declared that they were supposed to provide drinks for calendar days? Please show me this document? WiFi counts per day(night) . Drink package counts per day (night). Meals count per day(night) - you get exactly 7 days of breakfast/lunches/dinners on 7 nights/8 days cruise. And so on. Please show me some evidence that I’m wrong? By the way, I now remember several occasions when we tried to order drinks as Diamonds after midnight on last cruise night in 2018 and 2019 and were told that we could not.

I LIVE in Solarium on Anthem. We enjoy Boleros Dining rooms are beautiful and very comfortable. two70 with Spectra’s Cabaret show. Soon we will sail on her for the 9th time. We didn’t like he the very first time, but crowd management is way better now. This is a video from our last cruise on her

What ship are you hoping will come to NJ?
Tatka replied to AspiringCindy's topic in Royal Caribbean International
As always some ships are designed only for warm places … until they deployed elsewhere. -
Considering that day used to change at 12 am.. bars were still open I guess. We never used it.
-
We just returned from our #55. I’m well aware of how days count. But last day is still #8 on 7 night cruises. And Royal didn’t cut anything from 7 x 5 drinks. Folks were getting more drinks than their were supposed to after midnight on 7th night Additional

OK. Just watched video. You convinced me. Hopefully kids won’t occupy Solarium on Thanksgiving when we cruise. This year we had 1400 kids on board. -
Voom is working a bit differently I think. You embark later on Day #1 than you disembark on day #8. So it’s 7 times of 24 hours use.
-
Day 1 is embarkation around 10:30 (night #1) Day 2 (night #2) Day 3 (night #3) Day 4 (night #4) Day 5 (night #5) Day 6 (night #6) Day 7 (night #7) Day 8 disembarkation from 7-7:30 AM This is how 7 days cruise looks like. So all services should be provided for 7 days. Breakfast on Day 8 is a breakfast missing from Day 1 as embarkation happens right before lunch time. Diamonds, D+ and Pinnacles receive 4, 5 , 6 drinks daily for 7 days. I didn’t even know it was available on Day 8.

I sailed on her from NJ. It was popular because there was no choice. Still not sure why not continue to sail nicer, better equipped ship? What is an advantage of Odyssey. -
I do not think you will get 4 for debarkation day.

There will be another Voyager or Freedom class ship for summers. Just like Adventure is doing now. We were talking about cold season. During cold season Explorer won't work like Anthem does at all. Solarium is a destination itself. Who wants to wait several days till it is comfortable to swim? I cannot wait till our January cruise to Southern Caribbeans even though we just sailed on her for Thanksgiving -
I know have enough time for my 5 cruises a year, but I used to work every year for 1-5 days total during cruises. Most of the time it was on Anthem and internet was ALWAYS perfect. Both surf and surf & stream. Not sure what happened during the last 2 years... Quality is down even though prices are up.

Looks Like Symphony from Bayonne Summer 2024
Tatka replied to nelblu's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We will sail to Southern Caribbean 11 days on Anthem this January, then 12 days on Enchantment from Baltimore in March. Anthem's ports Day 4 | San Juan, Puerto Rico Day 5 | Philipsburg, St. Maarten Day 6 | St. Johns, Antigua Day 7 | Castries, St. Lucia Day 8 | Basseterre, St Kitts & Nevis Enchantment's ports Day 5 | St. Croix, U.S.V.I. Day 6 | Philipsburg, St. Maarten Day 7 | St. Johns, Antigua Day 8 | Bridgetown, Barbados Day 9 | Basseterre, St Kitts & Nevis last year it was St Lucia instead of Antigua. I wish St Kitts would go away... it is on every long cruise! In 2019 we had 14 dayer on NCL Gem out of Boston with 7 Southern Caribbean ports including St Lucia and Barbados. -

Yes. It is nice. After another Oasis next year we will be ready for Symphony. Cats are getting old. 🤣 -
Interesting. We tried once and this did not work so we assumed that was it. We do leave ships from 7 AM to 7:30 AM last morning thought.

Tatka replied to AspiringCindy's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Unless we build new islands/ports in Atlantic Ocean there is no choice. We do Southern Caribbean cruises on Anthem during Januaries and Enchantment (whatever) from Baltimore. Also there are 9 dayers to Bermuda/Caribbean on other ships from NJ during summers. Just not Oasis class. Last summer it was Adventure. -
It is a 7 days cruise so the very last day (#8) is not a day for departing guests.
-
Do you know what 5 AM is? How will this affect you? Are you planning to board before 5 AM? 😃

Tatka replied to AspiringCindy's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Why create inconvenience if it can be avoided? I am OK with any other ship of this class except for Odyssey. There are still Quantum, Ovation, Spectrum. Any of them would fit. And yes, we sailed on Explorer during cold times. It was inconvenient. -

This what Anthem used to do on Thanksgivings. We loved it as it gave us whole day at NASA. -
It is not nonsense. Change make it convenient for late night birds and won't change a thing for other people.
