Use the steam chamber, aka the shower stall, in your bathroom. Hang winkled garment inside away from the shower spray by running it to the far away side away from your clothes and run only hot water spray for a few minutes which will result in very steamy surrounding. Avoid being in chamber for long period when doing the above! 😉

You can use two different devices with the 1 person 1 device plan to save $ but both devices can't be online at he same time so the online device must be logged off, either before manually or by being kick off when the other goes online. This is the way DW and I use the onboard internet as neither of us must be online at the same time.

The link in post 45 above also pertains to not allowing power boards.

We were on Anthem this past January and only Spectera Caberet needed reservations.

I've even seen 60 minutes internet package offered onboard towards the end of our RC cruises which IMO is for this purpose. I saw this offered on our last cruise, on Anthem this past January.

Our feelings are similar after our sixth time on Anthem out of Cape Liberty this past January. Main theatre shows were alright seeing them the first time but we didn't bothering seeing them again.

It was 5:00 PM for our early traditional dining on Anthem this past late January.

We had that cabin, #6292, on one of our cruises on Anthem and there is a service corridor directly under that cabin. There was some food cart noise very early in the morning and throughout the day as the corridor is between Jamie's Italian and Cafe Two70 kitchen/service areas with an elevator down to the MDR kitchens on deck 3 and 4. There is also a door from that corridor out to the promenade walkway and the crew would use that area for their break time so often they would be just below that balcony having conversations, sometimes in their native, not English language.

Yes to both of of your questions. Seas were fairly calm and the non-specialty dining onboard was very good in spite of recent posts here about lousy food onboard RCI.

We did something similar on the 11 night Anthem cruise we came back from earlier this week. We are Cdn and didn't bother with cell phone coverage plan in US thus it would have very costly to use our cell phone for data. We left our phone on airplane mode with Wi-Fi on for our entire stay in US.. We skipped day 1 as we had free Wi-Fi internet at our hotel before going to Cape Liberty later that morning Then we use wife's D+ two free 24 hrs for days 2 to 3 and 4 to 5 followed by skipping having it for day 6. I then used my two free 24 hrs for internet for days 7and 8 and 10 and 11 skipping having it on day 9. I could have used my internet credit to get the last three days for $21 but felt we didn't need that. Doing the above gave us internet while in US for almost all days, except two at no cost.

There are many included drink that can be had at no cost onboard. These include coffees, teas, water included flavored ones and juices. The soda package is just another of RCI rip offs. I boarded my recent 11 nights Anthem cruise with a six pack of small, 710ml bottles of Coca Cola Max and wife and I only used 4 while on board.

We did this with our 16 and 17 years old grand daughters. After our cabins were assigned I called in and had our cabins changed to side by side ones. Onboard wife and I got key cards from GS for the cabin we were not in so we slept together and grand kids did also in cabin next door.

Yes, you can disconnect or log off from the Wi-Fi the device you are personally working on and connect your other device without affecting your wife's device. Your wife can do likewise with her device.

We've gotten ship's discarded casino cards for free on our past cruises. Enquire at the casino casher desk if these are available. Also I've seen them in the ship's library for use by guests.

What I did to complete our check in for the Anthem cruise we are doing next week is to add a credit card and then when onboard remove the credit card and make our account a cash one which has always worked for us on our pass cruises. Being Canadian I prefer to settle our onboard account in cash as we typically have $ US gotten when the exchange rate has been better for us.
