  1. The storm has come and gone already so I would assume the sea's are starting to settle back down by now. However there's always a chance of hitting a rough patch.

     

    Hurricane Nicole last night was a category 4 storm approaching Bermuda.

     

    Today it is a category 3 passing over Bermuda and moving NE.

  2. Your sailing is eight days away. It won't even exist by then.

     

    There is already a couple of threads about Matthew on this first page, check them out.

     

    Also, welcome to the forum.

     

    No one knows what the status of the storm will be 8 days from now, so to say it won't even exist by then, is just an opinion.

     

    Just as a couple of the computer models put it as a cat 5 stalled just north of the Bahamas in 7 days.

  3. Jeepers what a thread this has turned into :eek: I am just hoping anyone who is cruising during Hurricane Matthew is safe as well as the people on the islands.

     

    Me too.

     

    I was not on a cruise ship during Hurricane Katrina, but it turned out to have a major impact on my life, and I am so glad we were able to evacuate prior to landfall. I appreciate how we had control over that part at least.

     

    People make their own choices for whatever reasons; and for me-

     

    I don't plan on ever cruising during hurricane season.

  4. No. You have to call reservations. Just curious on why you want to change.

     

    Changed my promotion from shore excursions to gratuities earlier today and just noticed that I no longer have the same cabin (which had been fairly close to the studio lounge) Now I have the most aft studio cabin available; long way away.

  5. On the solos board, there's a thread that tracks what deals people are getting on solo cabins and which cruises have small or no single supplement. It's a problem across RC, not just the Quantum class. When I tried to make a booking solo on Radiance for an Alaska cruise, the cost was almost 4 times as much as it was per-person double occupancy ... for a cabin that only held two. (No solo cabins on that ship).

     

    What I've noticed in that forum is that the deals some people get from RC (one person got $700 to go solo on the same cruise the day before I got quoted $2400. Then two days later it went down to $1700) often shift overnight -- so it pays to keep calling RC and see what the best single fare they can come up with that day is, and book when it's in your price range.

     

    I've brought this to RC's attention, and never once received a reply.

     

    Actually, there are 3 solo cabins on that ship.
