Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 7, 2023 Author #527 Share Posted January 7, 2023 We had breakfast this morning in the CK and departed deck 17 at 8am and have been sitting at our airplane gate by 8:50. With PE now having facial recognition for customs which sped it up. Get grabbed a taxi for the quick ride over. TSA pre check made the security check easy. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 7, 2023 Author #528 Share Posted January 7, 2023 We didn’t have to stop at the naughty table on the way off the ship. I did grab a photo though. We didn’t buy anything at the ship’s yard sale. Zoom in to see the goods for sale. Another way RC is making money. LOL 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 7, 2023 Author #532 Share Posted January 7, 2023 (edited) I don’t talk about Star Class much but I will say the express departure is great. The security improvements at the port help all guests, but it is a benefit I greatly appreciate. Raj our Genie. He says hello to his past guests following along. If you ever meet him in passing, or have him as a Genie, say hello to him from our family. He truly is one of a kind.

Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 7, 2023 Author #533 Share Posted January 7, 2023 We did have a couple small hick-ups along the way. Ever see an iPhone with water damage that is unrecoverable? Parents, reminds your kids to check their pockets before they enter the Ocean. The only thing that wasn’t so great at Paradise Beach. Apple care still has a few months remaining, so we have one stop in the way home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 7, 2023 Author #535 Share Posted January 7, 2023 The other glitch, when checking in on embarkation day we were sent to a special counter that we had never seen before. We were told by the Pier Coordinator that we had a balance due before we even boarded the ship. Our cruise was paid in full, as our paper worked showed but they let us on. 🤷♂️ The agent at the pier said check onboard, as their records show no information. Raj did some research and they didn’t know either on the ship. It appeared on our ship account but was gone by day 3. Never did find out the reason why we had the charge or for what, but it’s all good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 7, 2023 Author #541 Share Posted January 7, 2023 We board the plane shortly and should be in Detroit at 2:30. Apple Store on the way home and maybe some food to go. We will give a quick update when we arrive home along with our final thoughts of our NYE birthday sailing. This is what awaits us. Not bad, not bad at all. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted January 7, 2023 #544 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Thanks for bringing us along. Now I have to look for a new live to follow. We would have been boarding today, but……….. You probably passed our friends, looking lost without us to guide them. Knowing how early they get to places, they were probably there when you sailed in to port. Safe travels home. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White123 Posted January 7, 2023 #545 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Thank you so much for your blog. Very enjoyable. My daughter husband and son going on Jan 21. They have never been on Royal before just princess and carnival. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmh2006 Posted January 7, 2023 #546 Share Posted January 7, 2023 @A&L_OntThanks for the live review and I hope your flight back to DTW was good. At least no weather issues here in SE Michigan!
