maureencruiser Posted May 13, 2019 #352 Share Posted May 13, 2019 So, how do I get this message from Andy? Facebook? Smoke signals? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zendeck Posted May 13, 2019 #353 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Thank you for a great review! I’m actually in post Symphony depression.....and unlike you, I have a whole year to wait to be on our next.... but fortunately it is on Allure so I truly appreciated your review.

Tiggercat Posted May 13, 2019 #354 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Thanks for the great review! It really helped me get excited for our upcoming cruise on Allure on June 9. We will be celebrating our 33rd wedding anniversary and my retirement...can't wait! I was wondering if you noticed any problems with the Unlimited Dining Package? Was Izumi Hibachi available any night with this package? (On Oasis with the Ultimate package, they only let you use it the first night and on Allure in March we had to pay $10 pp to use it.) Also, could you use the restaurants for lunch without issue even on days when you were at a port? Thanks in advance for your time in answering these questions!

Didn’t notice any issues with the Unlimited package. If the restaurant was open we got food. Embarkment day, Port day, sea day. Port days Sabor opens later but still enough time to get a snack before you head to dinner at a different restaurant for dinner. With this new plan you should be able to eat at Hibachi any night. Though we did first and last night. You're in for a super cruise! Happy retirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrFunInTheSun Posted May 14, 2019 Author #362 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Way to go Royal Caribbean and crew obtaining a 99% with USPH the day we departed the ship. Your hard work is appreciated. May 12, 2019, United States Public Health Inspectors boarded Allure of the Seas while the vessel was in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The Royal Caribbean cruise ship passed USPH Inspection with a high score of 99 points. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was everything perfect, no. But everything was just right and the things that may have caused a minor blip in reality is not a big deal in the scheme of things. One must shrug off those small things and smile and keep moving along and enjoying your day. Thank you for the review!! It looks like you had a wonderful trip!! And I love this last paragraph...Nothing is usually perfect, but with the right attitude it can be pretty damn great!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsure if these have rolled out to other ships or not... Agree...these are interesting and will have to see them to figure them out. Not sure we will be fans either. 😕 We sail in Feb 2020 for our first trip on Allure, so following this thread to see what else lay ahead. Thank you for your very detailed review.

OACAggie Posted May 15, 2019 #365 Share Posted May 15, 2019 MFITS, loved the review and eagerly await your review on the newly AMP'd Lady Oasis in December. We are cruising on her next March doing the same itinerary. It will also be our 1st time on an Oasis class ship! Thanks again for taking the time to bring us along with you.

cft8 Posted May 15, 2019 #369 Share Posted May 15, 2019 We had the new cups on Anthem last week. They were ok. I liked the handle for carrying it around, and the fact that they came with a straw. They were not as easy to hold for drinking as the old ones, because they are larger. If you tuck the straw back in while you are walking around and not drinking, be careful when you pull it out, or you might splash a little on yourself or the person standing next to you.

It's been a while since I've cruised on Allure and I'm not certain, but I believe that the docks have the old iPhone connectors and won't work with the lightning connectors.

December 1 on the beautiful Lady Oasis will surely be an added treat with her upgrade. Am looking forward to it. Glad Lady Harmony is mixed in between though.

I forget what it’s for, but I remember thinking that I could still use it as a speaker or charging dock with newer phones. Perhaps there is an audio in and a usb?
