Mr. Green

It will depend on which terminal you are at. Like mentioned above, if you are at #6, forget it. Too far to walk to anything. Would suggest an Uber or ride share to get you there.

Why do people think that most of us worry about how wrinkled your pants or clothes are each night?? We are all on the same boat and are in the same situation. The rules are in place for a reason and trust me, you don't want to be the person to start a fire because you think the rules don't apply to you.

I don't believe it will since it uses an RFID chip in the card and not a magnetic strip.

Simple, it's Supply and Demand. People are paying those prices so they are going to charge them.

Crew areas for cleaning staff, crew access. Could also be a utility access for the ship. Never heard any noise being next to one of those areas.

Connect to the ships free Wi-Fi for using the RC App. Three dots in the upper right hand corner. Just a note, minors cannot use the app due to laws and it will not allow them no matter what you do. IMO, it sucks as it does not give you any notifications and you need to keep checking it for messages.

It comes down to the taxes/duty that Cruise Lines want or don't want to pay.

People on FB were concerned that the menu was removed from the app (like the MDR's recently) and for some reason that turned into I heard it was closing for renovations. No one has any official word or received any formal communications from RC.

So punish the worker and not the corporation making the decision? You don't want to tip the service worker, but you are paying more than ever to the mother ship for the cruise?

On formal nights I have worn khaki pants and a button down shirt. On non-formal nights I will admit I worn dress shorts or khaki shorts with a nice polo shirt and never had an issue. I don't think a "dress code" is really enforced anymore.

The prices are outrageous and high, but why do you think RC and other cruise lines can charge those prices?? Because people are buy at the current price and they continue to fill up ships. Supply and Demand!!

Our last visit to NJ we had an early check in. They directed us to the lot so you may not have the choice as I think it may have still been full from the previous passengers and reserve for Handicap. The lot is right across the street from the terminal so it is not a far walk. Drop your luggage off right in front of the terminal before you park.

I don't think it will be an issue. I have witnessed teens in the fitness center putting the work in and using the equipment with respect as well as respecting others.

Book it now at that price. If it goes lower and it's worth it, you can cancel and re-book at the new price.

Salad bar with a side of chicken or beef. It's the simple things in life that satisfy me and I'm trying to eat better. Is eating and better even a thing on a cruise????

So we arrived around 10am or a little after for our 11am time. We were directed to the outside lot and the garage was being reserved for Handicap. We had friends on the same cruise and they arrived around 12pm or later for a 1pm'ish check in. They were allowed to park in the garage. Both are close enough to walk and not much trouble. Seems it depends on arrival time to the port and available spots.

When you get on the ship put your phone on Airplane Mode and connect the ships wi-fi. Open the RC App and you will be able to book your shows. I suggest going on Airplane Mode for this because I did notice the App acting a little funny until I did this step. You can always take it off Airplane Mode and use your phone before you leave the port.

News Reporting: Airlines cancel hundreds of flights before summer travel season because of pilot shortage

-Leading the trend has been Southwest Airlines, which has cut nearly 20,000 flights.

-U.S. airlines are trying to hire at least 12,000 pilots this year.

-Delta, meanwhile, said it was canceling 100 daily flights from July 1 through Aug. 7 in the U.S. and Latin America.

Had the kids back in about 3.5 weeks without paying to be rushed. It isn't a guarantee that you will get it that fast and they always tell you when it's processed that it will take the usual time frame. Just be aware it's the Federal Gov. Anything is possible!!

You will be far enough away from the coast that the coverage will either be non existent or very spotty that you risk connecting to Cellular at Sea and racking up major charges. You will be better off sharing the 4 device package.

We had a some friends get back from the Oasis a few weeks ago and had The Key. They stated it was not worth it and not to buy it. Seemed a lot of the staff were confused on its benefits when the time came to use them.

I have only heard of corkage fee’s being charged in the dining rooms 

 

Sorry, are you saying that I would only be allowed to bring two bottles on board, and not a case of my favorite wine?

You are allowed bring 2-750ml bottles of wine on boarding day. That is it.

Can I put the bottles of wine in my suitcase or do I have to carry them on?

Carry On.

I wouldn't chance trying to do a same day arrival on departure day. Already the US Airlines are showing they can't keep up. Just look at the flights that were cancelled over Memorial Day weekend. I think this will be a hint of things to come this summer.

Renewing a Passport is pretty much like getting a new one. Application, New Photo, Passport Processing Center/Location, have it mailed all in, wait for it to arrive.
