Check in with guaranty cabin
DeputyDawg46 replied to njship3's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Not a big issue. I'm on the TA and the cruise after this one to Norway with same selected room. For 2 days I figured I could handle anything with a GTY. When I get on I'll check and see if my room which is the same before and after this 2 day cruise will be available. Thanks. -
Check in with guaranty cabin

I am checked in and I tried this for the Anthem 10-12 May 24 cruise but no room assigned yet. How close before they assign rooms? DDawg -
My last 5 RCL cruises since 1 Nov did not have cartons of milk anymore. I was told they cannot get them in cartons anymore. May be a temporary situation. Generally white and chocolate milk are available in containers in the morning in the WJ. Getting chocolate throughout the day is a challenge. White milk is available in a pitcher by the water and ice machines in the WJ. Generally, when I eat in CK or Chops for breakfast I just ask for milk and they bring me a glass. I carry a drink container on board and fill it up at breakfast with my choice of milk and put it in my fridge. Good for at least a day. But check your fridge and ask for a new one if not cool at all. My experience is they don't replace bad fridges unless someone complains.

"miserable"....if you can't handle the answer don't ask the question or comment on it!

Big difference between a traffic "violation or infraction" and possible a Class A Felony, depending on country.

I've snorkeled both places and always wear water shoes and use a full-faced snorkel mask. Enjoy. DDawg -
RCI's penny-pinching & money-grabbing ...
DeputyDawg46 replied to allyfree's topic in Royal Caribbean International
If you swapped keys and they each have a credit card on file for a different room then that could be a problem when they charged anything. Of course an extra room key swap and use the original key for charging could solve that. Never had to do this so other folks may have a better solution if GS can't make the change. -
Missing port - due to weather
DeputyDawg46 replied to paulfoel's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Recently on the Jewell on a TA we missed Reykjavik due to weather. Spent an extra night in Akureyri, I think it was. Got nothing back for the missed port. Guess they used it for the extra night at the other port. It even's out. DDawg -
Better to Cancel Cruise or be a No Show
DeputyDawg46 replied to DeputyDawg46's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Mine is same for October and within 60 days. Not sure why they'd charge you $2200 unless you change rooms/categories based on current prices. Port Fees/Taxes were a gimmie but figured the base price is history. One person mentioned I'd probably not get the extra double points which I understand. Not a problem as got over 1300. Seams like no show most logical route. I may end up with 3 cruises (got 2 now) in Oct so might run into you as some point. Good luck. DDawg -
Better to Cancel Cruise or be a No Show
DeputyDawg46 posted a topic in Royal Caribbean International
Am within 60 days of cruise and room mate has to cancel for reasons beyond insurance. Since that persons money is forfeited is it better to cancel them from the room or just have them be a no show on embarkation day? I suspect if they cancel there will be no refund/FCC. If I try to use a DP340 as a solo it would be based on the current rate which is over $1000 than originally paid. I'm thinking just call it a no show and I would get double points at some point after the cruise. Thoughts? TIA DDawg -

Would you PAY for towel animals?
DeputyDawg46 replied to LMaxwell's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Would not pay. The stewards do am amazing job of making these but I always tell them on the first day to not make any for me, thus saving time and towels maintenance. DDawg -
How do you rate MDR menu these days?
DeputyDawg46 replied to thefog's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I have been on 10-12 cruise thus far in 2023 and find the quality and quantity in the MDR to be lacking. There are more items in the area of pot pies, casseroles, very spicy, and items never heard of. No way to find a non spicy pork chop in the MDR after 4 weeks B2B on the same ship. But there are some very hard working servers who try very hard amid the issues. Food quality 7/10. Service 9/10. Menu selection 3/10. But no doubt am not going hungry and no need to take it out on the staff. DDawg
