Cruise Compass

[wrg]

Is it possible to obtain a paper copy while on board? We'll be on Adventure of the Seas in late May. Thanks.

Yes, we always do. We ask our cabin steward the first day. If all else fails, there are some at Guest Services.

In July we were on Enchantment for a Med cruise and one was left for us every day.

Thank you! I understand that there's the app, but I still prefer paper 🙂

At a recent lunch with officers we were told RCI was going to start charging passengers a nominal fee for paper copies of the Cruise Compass in the near future. Keep in mind at a lunch with officers last Spring we were told RCI was going to soon announce a new smaller class of ship. Over a year later the only thing I have heard officially from RCI is they are building a 7th Oasis class ship and 3rd Icon class ship, which are not small ships.

Wow, that's interesting.

I like getting the paper compasses (more as a souvenir than anything), and I would actually be ok with this.

If you scan the qr code in your room each day, you'll get a pdf copy of the cruise compass, like the exact thing just not on paper, and you can still save them as souvenirs. That's what we did the last two cruises and it's nice to have it in digital form to email, print or just look at whenever we want

I hope not.  I don't want to carry a phone around on a cruise.

Like I mentioned, over a year ago we were told a new smaller class ship would be announced soon. As of today that still hasn’t happened, so it wouldn’t surprise me if RCI continues to provide printed copies of the Cruise Compass for free in the future.

Thanks! This would be a great e-keepsake.

Where is the QR code found? The paper versions are what I prefer but a PDF would work too for the reasons you mention.

In your cabin on the desk, at guest services, in the Crown Lounge, etc.
