sellwingri Posted January 25, 2019 #254 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I was on this cruise a couple of weeks ago and it was wonderful. However, they didn’t offer valet luggage when we returned to Ft Lauderdale. Every other cruise I’ve been on from Ft Lauderdale offered it so I’m curious if it was available on this trip.

Have not received any sign up form in the cabin yet. I do self assist so don't care much about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted January 25, 2019 #256 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I was in to Logo shop yesterday and they happened to be advertising a sale on the ship's models. I guy was in there and asked the sales person what the price is. He said the same as on the sign. The customer say... that is the same price it has been all week and started accusing them of false advertising. I wanted to ask the guy if this was his first time sailing with RCI as he obviously does not understand the cruise line's definition of the word "sale". I found it all a bit humerous but maybe I wouldn't have if I didn't already have a model of this ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted January 25, 2019 #257 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Btw, since it is often discussed on the boards, Adventure is doing time changes. We went on Atlantic standard time the first night out of Ft. Lauderdale and have not yet gone back to Eastern time. And, the internet has slowed to a crawl. Very frustrating. I have to get off of here for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunday. Eight nighters are so much better than seven. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All RC ships have VOOM, that is what RC calls internet access, whether it is O3b or otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Royal was rolling out the O3b service, they touted it as VOOM. However, they stopped short of retrofitting all ships with the service and just declared that VOOM had been installed on all ships. Sort of like when they announce a new sale - it's mostly in their mind and not often reflected in actual lower prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
