Very strange. I checked in for our cruise which is April 13 the first day it opened and checked in myself and my hubby at the same time. Good luck! I'm sure it will work out.

Thanks all!

Does anyone know what Elite Pearl Means? I am an Elite member and so is my hubby. My "Express Pass" status says Elite Pearl though. I was just wondering if anyone knows what this is. Thanks

Also, I know we can bring a couple of bottles of wine onboard but do you know if they allow bottled water? I know some cruise lines have said no more bottled water because of the "booze smugglers, lol"

Wow! Thanks! Good info!

Thanks! This is good to know!

Thanks yes I saw this. I guess my question is Are there really drinks that are under $10 because if so we will pay less by just paying as we go. I was recently on RCCL Radiance of the Seas and I didn't see anything under $10.

Hi all, We are cruising on the Reflection in April. I am trying to decide if it is worth it for us to purchase the drink packages. Hubby drinks more than I do but I am not sure if even he will drink enough to pay for the cost or if we should just pay as we go. Does anyone know the cost of a basic alcohol drink ie: vodka tonic? Also, I enjoy coke zero on occasion and a specialty coffee now and then. Thanks in advance.

I try to have them added when I book. Its just easier for me to have it all paid for before we sail. I remember when I booked my most recent one onboard I had to ask the agent to add it in for me. I did call once in the past and ask and since it wasn't prepaid I went ahead and paid it. This is just the way I like to do it. But, like others have said you don't get any discount or anything by paying it ahead so you might want to just plan on it being added once you are onboard.

Once onboard go directly to any of the restaurants and you can book them all at one place. We did it and it worked out fine.

We have been on many cruises and I always wear it. Never had any issues.

We are booked for the 1st week in August. Sometimes the website says that one of our ports in Skagway and sometimes it says Haines. The excursions currently offer for Skagway but the port itinerary doesn't say we are stopping there. I guess they don't know for sure yet.

I recently saw a Youtube video talking about a Mendenhall Glacier and Nugget Falls Shore Excursion. They took the Glacier Express bus which was offered once they disembarked in Juneau. At that time he said it was amazing and it was $45. We are also thinking of what we want to do in port for our next cruise to Alaska which is this August! We were in Alaska in 2016 and saw some amazing things but are looking forward to visiting again and seeing some more cool stuff!

Just wondering if anyone knows if the internet has been upgraded to Starlink on Brilliance. Thanks

Actually from what I can tell, it means the opposite. It seems like it would mean a short time but no.
