    Sometimes they have wings in the Windjammer. You can also order from room service.

    I just hope one doesn't find a missing driver's license baked inside.

    Only do a GTY if you truly do not care one bit about room location or potential obstructed views.

    Check all pockets in dirty laundry. Check anything you may have kept check-in paperwork in. Check all bags you had with you when you checked in. Check with anyone you were with when you checked in in case you unknowingly gave your ID to another person to hold.

    Better than the alternative I guess.

    Ever since they did away with the windowless sardine can suite lounges, I've never seen a full lounge.

    I wonder what kind of agreements the cruise lines have with ports for something like this. A typical skipped port is for reasons typically out of anyone's control. But in this case it's a problem owned by the port.

    Vision has a one-off stop there in January, but no other RC ship goes there in the next year.

    That seems pretty bush league to penalize your biggest spenders if they want to change their cruise. Cancel sure, but change?

    They are if you book early. My 8-nighter GS for 3 on Adventure in June 2024 cost me $3200 total. Yet right now to book for 3 it'd cost over $10k

    Well sure. I'm just saying as suite prices go up (and will continue to on the new ships), that tiny deposit for a large purchase is more easily brushed off if you decide not to cruise.

    It varies from cruise to cruise.

    Everything service-related that you buy includes gratuities.

    The odds of booking a suite which costs enough for the 10% to kick in is a lot higher now, especially for the new ships. Book a 15k suite, but pay $500 deposit, forfeiting that $500 seems a drop in the bucket.

    There is no correct answer. Tip what you are comfortable with, whether it's $0 or $100

    Absolutely, since FCCs are at the individual level.

    600 PInnacles? Gonna be a lot of old ladies and swelled egos. I kid! Sort of.

    I would be curious how close to their schedule arrival time that people are showing up. RC has this data. If too many people are showing up too early, it doesn't seem to be making a big impact.

    If you're even considering Icon after looking at that price, then do Icon

    The only time I got a reduced deposit for a suite via nextcruise was when it was a short 4-night trip
  22. smokeybandit
    So this only comes into play if your suite costs more than $2500pp.

    Are you allowed to take it with you or do they put it aside and deliver it to the ship so you don't drink it while on the island?

    My last cruise on Jewel had a rather impressive veteran's ceremony.

    Semantics, but you meant that the app doesn't need an internet package to work
