The sign at the bar said $84 per person 

Wow, if 18% is added on top of that it comes out to around $800 for 8 days.🙄😯

Good morning CC! I slept like a rock last night. A beautiful day today as we sail towards St Thomas (but I'm sure we won't actually get to dock there) but regardless, a beautiful day for some more pool time and drinks! 

Have a Wonderful day!

I said to my wife as we were standing there how crazy it was priced. I think we paid $61 a person and that was the lowest I ever saw it in the cruise planner. Out the door for two was like $1100 I think.

can anyone tell me what they are charging for the premium drink package if you buy it on the ship ?

Welcome to CC.

 

Many times they have discounts on the ship, but very unlikely it will be cheaper than buying in the Planner pre-cruise.

Thanks for the great updates and answering all the questions. Right now you are my BEST FRIEND!!!!

Just got updated from the captain. 1.4% positivity currently. Denied access to st Thomas tomorrow, so we're now doing St maarten tomorrow, and then removing st Kitts and replacing it with Coco cay and then also adding Nassau back in on Saturday going home.

Is one of the hospital sick ships following you to drop off sick crew?

Good thing that I did not book any tours in St Kitts for my January Allure sail.  I got one for St Martin and for all indication they are not prevented from docking there, keeping my fingers and legs crossed.😁

Also confirmed we'll get an OBC of 1 day of the cruise fare.

Can these OBCs be used for grats or casino.

I would assume so. It basically is a credit on the account.

That's good especially if you have pre-paid stuff.

I would think they will do the transfer in St Martin.  The quarantine/hospital ships seem to hanging around St Martin and CoCo Cay.

My thoughts exactly. Probably a swap tomorrow in st maarten and a swap in Coco cay. We haven't had a chance to do any swaps yet so it's time. I'm extremely happy about adding Coco cay. Just a little bummed missing st Thomas

Rhapsody passed us in the middle of the night. No clue if we stopped.

I hope our upcoming cruise in a couple weeks is as empty. Enjoy! thank you for posting.

Thanks for the info. definitely worth buying it pre cruise.

Took picture of “crowd” last night at 10 pm as we left the pub.    A bit disappointed will miss St Kitts.  Had been looking forward to Carambola beach club.   Oh well.  Coco Cay is fun too.   Enjoying the ship too- and the short wait time for empty or nearly empty elevators is a bonus.

Cheers to a gorgeous day. Elvis from Jamaica spotted us as soon as we sat down, came and got us some drinks and remembered our cabin without even asking.. God I love cruising and these workers busting their tails to keep everyone happy

Thank you for your updates and reviews! We will be on Allure this Sunday (fingers crossed) and are really looking forward to this cruise!

So far, knock on wood, it feels very normal. We've just been more conscious of avoiding being close to people

My concern is all of the cancelled RCCL sailings in the past week+ has people rebook to the Allure 01/16 cruise as well as the reservation system was open to new booking so strap in people this cruise can be near or at capacity.  Does anyone know to the contrary!?

Welcome to CC.

 

Recently RCI has closed a sailing to new bookings when they get to their made up capacity limit.

Quote of the morning by the captain which is so fitting "we are on captain Ron's magic mystery cruise. I spin the wheel every morning to see where we are going" 😂

Is this refundable OBC?
