Alrighty then... I thought there was a list on here......must have been mistaken.

Does anyone know who the Concierge is on Explorer?

Your protocols are exactly what I do too. I will wear my mask in the same circumstances as you. I cruise on Explorer November 6th for 14 nights (b2b). I have just recovered from Covid - got it for the first time 2 weeks ago, and I don't want it again!

The minimum bid was $300. I bid $330 - In Canadian dollars, so that would be roughly $235 USD. I paid double, so $670 CDN which would be about $480 USD.

Yes, I am sailing solo. My bid was x2, so I paid as if there were 2 in the cabin. What is so hard to believe here?

I paid $900 cdn for a Superior Ocean View Balcony (and that is sailing SOLO!) The GS when I looked at what it costs to book outright was about $2400/PP. Yay me!

Oh excellent - thanks for that. I will call.

Notified today that my bid was accepted and I am 9 days out. Successfully bid on a Grand Suite (was in an OV balcony).

I won my bid today, and I sail on November 6th, so exactly 9 days out. Everything on my reservation now reflects the Upgrade from balcony to Grand Suite, except my docs still show the old cabin, which means the luggage tags do too..... I will over-write the ones I have I suppose. I know......first world problems.

Today I won my bid and went from an OV balcony to a Grand Suite. I got an email from RoyalUP at 2:23PM, and a new booking invoice from Royal at 2:24PM. I only checked my email at 4:40PM!!! Super excited! I won with $30 over the minimum bid!

I’m sailing in 9 days. it’s a 6 night cruise 😊

Low key freaking out! I sail in 9 days, on the Explorer. Just found out today I won my bid! my bid was $30 over the minimum. I was in an ocean view balcony and now I’m in a Grand Suite 🎉 I did not bid on a Junior Suite. Miracles DO happen!

I just found out I won my RoyalUp bid! I sail in 9 days on the Explorer and I went from an Ocean View balcony to a Grand Suite for slightly above the minimum bid!!! SO excited!!!!

I got my bivalent booster 3 weeks ago. That was my 2nd booster and my 4th shot. Last Saturday I tested positive for Covid, for the 1st time. I had a pretty bad head cold and felt awful for a few days, but am very thankful that overall I was ok. I believe that the vaccines are doing what they are designed to do, and that is keep people from a severe outcome. No regrets getting the bivalent, and now having just recovered from Covid, I am ready to go on my Explorer B2B coming up in 2 weeks!

I am on a b2b on Explorer in 2 weeks (14 nights total). I have checked in for both legs and hope the process will be seamless.

What ship?

Then how will you know where you are? 😉

Uhm Yah. No. The pool it is for me when I am there in a few weeks. On the bright side, your weather looks divine. It is a balmy 10 degrees in Ontario today.....

Looks like a fab day! How is the jellyfish situation? I heard the last few months have been really bad.

Tomorrow is 30 days out for me - hoping luggage tags will be available to print! The OCD in me needs to put them in their nifty plastic holder/sleeves 😄

I am that person. The person that rats out every single parent who tries to take their non-potty trained children anywhere near the main pools.

Awesome! When do you sail?

AAAAAH! Good to know!!!

My cruise is 32 days out. There is a JS Guarantee There are 8 Grand Suites available There are 7 Owners Suites available There is 1 Royal Suite available I have bids in for everything above except the JS (before it went guarantee, I could see there were 6 available all at the aft - not my fave on Voyager class) My bids are significantly above minimum but not considered strong. Checking my emails every day.....

Sorry to hear about your fall on the Flowrider, but glad you are doing ok! I am honestly impressed when I see anyone on that thing! I usually head up there late in the afternoon to watch for a bit before heading back to the cabin. Looking forward to it in a few weeks when I board Explorer for my b2b 🙂 Have a great day on Labadee! Can't wait to see your pictures.
