  1. With Royal you can move any stateroom/occupancy into the group to pick up the group amenities without having to relinquish any of your staterooms. Any of those staterooms that are either 3/4 occupancy or staterooms that are not offered in groups by Royal can not take advantage of group rates, the only thing they gain is the group amenity. When I am giving examples it is for Royal only and not the rest of the industry since every line is different.
  2. You are in full penalty phase. Any cancellation now is a 100% loss of your cruise fare. It is doubtful that Royal will let you reschedule.
  3. You will get FCC's for the cancel for any reason. They cannot be used on board, only to book or pay for a cruise
  4. Suites rarely get to take advantage of the balcony discount. The instant savings or OBC offers for suites are usually greater than the $250 balcony discount
  5. We had an Oceanview for 4 on Serenade and it was 2 Pullmans and a king that could be split into two twins.
  6. Royals 1-800 numbers typically only work from North America
  7. OP is in Singapore/Spain. I don't think they can call
  8. There usually is but it looks like there is a glitch in your planner
  9. It is for Royal and since we are on a Royal form that is all I was discussing.
  10. The longest a TA can hold a cabin without a name and deposit is 30 days and even that requires a $50 deposit per room. What TA's can do is block off group space that Royal offers. Royal will then pull inventory in order to meet those group obligations.
  11. Get an early boarding time and find a specialty restaurant as soon as you board and make your reservations for the week. It's not that difficult to get times you want.
  12. All 12 of the aft facing D4 balconies are available on deck 14 for the March 30 sailing, Lots of the D4's on deck 12 forward, a bunch of D2 midship deck 12. You need to find a good TA.
  13. Things like that are usually part of a pass through promo that Royal runs with TA's and you wont see them until you board.
  14. Ran into the same issue for clients however having it escalated to resolutions and then revenue I was able to get the cabin moved.
  15. Yes the B categories are a higher category than a D category, slightly larger
  16. Call Royal and have your accounts linked and you will both have the same number of points.
  17. Take a look on the app under Vintages and it will show a bar menu. Up to $14 are included
  18. I don't think it would stop them from sending the ships over it would just make the drydocks easier to schedule and give them options as to which ship went over as opposed to the drydock schedule dictating it.
  19. Balconies overlooking Surfside. Surfside is the new version of the Boardwalk so these balconies are the equivalent of the Boardwalk balcony
  20. They will eventually need to have more than just the one itinerary for Oasis class ships. With 5 OA class now thats one in for a drydock every year. I must say that they did time the deliveries of the big girls well. 2023 Symphony 2024 Oasis 2025 Allure 2026 Harmony 2027 Wonder 2028 Symphony 2029 Oasis, Icon, Utopia Things start to get crowded in 2029. maybe Icon gets delivered very late 2023 then you have 2028 Symphony, Icon 2029 Oasis, Utopia They have a few years to figure it out.
  21. That I am not sure of but it's a negligible amount at that point and a slim possibility that it would happen so I personally would not worry about insuring that even if they did not prorate the port fees and taxes if you had to leave mid cruise.
