Rare YouthD Posted April 6, 2022 #1 Share Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) This post was recognized by LauraS! "Thanks for generously sharing your time at sea with everyone at Cruise Critic!" YouthD was awarded the badge '"Live from...."' This'll be our third cruise since it restarted! First one was on the Celebrity Edge in Sept, followed by the Disney Fantasy in Jan. We will be going on the Symphony on the April 23rd Western Caribbean and Perfect Day cruise. At CocoCay we will be having a Beach Cabana at Coco Beach Club, very excited about the views and food! First time there. My wife and I also have passes to the thermal suite all cruise, so hopefully it's not too crowded. Day 1 - Depart Miami Day 2 - At Sea Day 3 - Puerto Costa Maya, Mexico (Possibly Mexican Salsa Experience and Beach Break) Day 4 - Roaton, Honduras (BOSS Underwater Adventure) Day 5 - Cozumel, Mexico (Legacy of the Maya: Ruins and Chocolate Tasting) Day 6 - At Sea Day 7 - Perfect Day at CocoCay (Beach Cabana at Coco Beach Club) Day 8 - Worst day ever, Disembarkation My wife and I are VERY excited for this cruise. We're going with her parents, aunt, cousin, sister, brother-in-law, and two friends. All in all, there will be 10 of us, all with the UDP, my wife and I are planning mostly everything, so it'll be fun trying to make those reservations the first day... We all either have the UDP or Refreshments Package. This is our second cruise on RCL and most of the parties first cruise ever. All of us will be in Balcony rooms, tried for a Royal Up Bid to a 2 bedroom Aquatheatre Suite or Star Loft, we did not get either. 😞 Probably have the entire cruise ship memorized from watching hours and hours of Youtube videos. Let me know if you guys have any recommendations. Will update this as we get closer to the date! Edited April 6, 2022 by YouthD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcoul Posted April 7, 2022 #13 Share Posted April 7, 2022 My daughter and I just got back from from this exact itinerary and ship. We had a great time. We saw 3 shows, 1977, Flight, and HIRO. They were very good. We ate in the free restaurants and the food was just okay. Weather was partly to mostly cloudy with a good amount of wind, tough to snorkel. Snorkeling in Rotan was good, lots of fish. Got off the ship to the airline cancellation debacle, glad we were only stranded 1 day. Enjoy your trip!!

The one-pager that lists all shows may come out the day before the sailing - someone doing a B2B on the previous sailing may post it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winning a bid can be anytime from bidding to boarding - but likely less than two weeks out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
