You just tap your exclusive medallion like a Star Trek com badge and tell them where you want to go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voljeep Posted April 24 #452 Share Posted April 24 has anyone had any problems getting their deposit back when you just now cancelled? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those suite holders that like to imbibe in the hot tubs can use their medallion to get whisked away to use the facilities when nature calls.

I cancelled two a few months ago and deposits were returned right away. I still have 1 booked on SUN & 1 booked on Star. Sure that will be it as the cabins I prefer are all in the Sanctuary category with premier package - we don’t want. and the D0 cabin is now priced at 9500+, so no more for me.

So you are keeping the Star TA? I’m still deciding between that and the Emerald TA from Southampton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the Star TA was out of Southampton which I wanted. I took the option to wait and book something else. I have a suite booked on the 5 day Star out of Ft Lauderdale in 2025. I’ll see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kywildcatfanone Posted April 24 #457 Share Posted April 24 Sorry, late to the game here on this ship. Is it correct that there is no adults only area like the retreat pool area on other ships? Looks like the pool is in the Sanctuary, so did they expand the Sanctuary and eliminate a retreat area? How do people like the buffet being low on the ship? I love the Lido deck location and don't think I'd like to leave the pool and go down the elevator to eat in the buffet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plethera1 Posted April 25 #460 Share Posted April 25 Does anyone know where I can get updates on the availability of the RollGlider and the Park 19 ropes course? I found another thread from early March with the following dates: Arena shows will begin rolling out on March 29 Park19 is open, minus the ropes course, which will be completed March 29, and RollGlider, which will be done on April 27. I haven't see any references to any of the three mentioned being up and running. Obviously, this gives the RollGlider date as being in a couple days still. I was just wondering if there was some sort of status page or if anyone had seen anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One day they were testing out the RollGlider but they were just trying to run the "cart" around the track. Some were succssfull and some where not with them getting "stuck" on the track. Maybe that was the test? But it didn't have anyone on it and didn't even have the swings attached except for one. Not optimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could always order a club sandwich via your medallion and have it delivered to your chair poolside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The burgers, pizza, tacos and salads seemed to be an elevated food choice from the other ships. Should be able to satisfy a lot of main pool passengers. I do appreciate the new beeper system for the burger stand so people aren't standing in a long line. I hope they roll that out to the other ships.

I mean, they still don't have the prime rib "trolley" in the Signature restaurant even though they are serving it. I think some things haven't made it to the ship yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think once the construction is complete on these items, they not only need to be tested, but inspected and certified for use. So depending on where that inspection/certification is to take place and when the ship is back at the appropriate port, could be adding to the delay as well. Just my guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nasa1974 Posted April 25 #469 Share Posted April 25 Just went to look at the deck plans for the Sun and it asks if you are sailing before or after October 14, 2024. I wonder what the difference is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the Sanctuary layout itself, the Penthouse Suites becoming Vista Suites, Owner's Suites becoming Grand Suites and the qualifying mini-suites and D0 premium deluxe balconies becoming Sanctuary Club. The Signature Lounge also becomes the Suite Lounge. Edited April 25 by dides 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy a package, ao there would be a charge. I can also see people calling me a chair hog for the time it takes to go get lunch and come back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes.that is it exactly. The Sanctuary is no longer available for day passes. It is o ly for those in sanctuary class cabins. The Sun will have no adult only area available for other passengers, paid or included in their fare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
