  1. When I became Elite on Celebrity, the reciprocal program was then in place, so I was bumped to Diamond (from Platinum [had 45 points]) on RCI. I also paid $35 for CC, but I missed the deadline for Founders Club. Since I took 1 cruise on Azamara while owned by RCG, I am Discoverer with 521 points. Celebrity and Azamara shared points.
  2. I will have one block for each current class of RCI ships, except Quantum Ultra and Icon. Vision = Enchantment Radiance = Radiance Voyager = Adventure Freedom = Liberty Quantum = Anthem (x2) Oasis = Oasis I need to trade my extra Anthem for Odyssey or Icon.
  3. Congrats on your first crystal block. I earned my first block on Adventure in 2019. Will earn my fifth (420 point) block on Oasis in two weeks.
  4. I had zero points with Celebrity on my first Celebrity cruise, yet I was Nothing. 😄 When I took my first Celebrity cruise the reciprocal program didn't exist (was Platinum on RCI).
  5. Whatever C&A loyalty changes are made, they will be presented as "enhancing your cruise experience". 😄
  6. I haven't been on an Easter cruise, but spring break for my school district was the week before Easter. So, kids would be off for the week you are asking about.
  7. Move to a Voyager/Freedom class ship and tour the Wedding Chapel. 😄
  8. No solo cabins on Navigator, unless they added some during the AMP. All aboard time is typically 1/2 hour prior to the scheduled sail away time. To be safe, I'd recommend 1 hour prior.
  9. That happened to me, but luckily I caught it and had it corrected the next day, while still on board.
  10. 47 years ago, I road in the back seat of a Plymouth Fury III from the Philly area to Palmer, AK (north of Anchorage). Many stops in the mid west thru Canada. Stayed with relatives in AK. Did trips to Anchorage, Homer, Denali (Mt. McKinley at the time), and Fairbanks. We flew home (my first airline flight - Northwest Orient 747). Other relatives flew to AK to drive the car home.
  11. They need to start adding time for alpha calls into the schedule, since they are unfortunately becoming a common occurrence. 😞
  12. Look at the app for a sailing that you're interested in.
  13. I sailed Radiance 23 years ago (March 26-29, 2001) on her first revenue cruise. She had that new ship smell. 🙂 Was scheduled to cruise on her again 20 years later to Alaska, but that didn't happen (COVID canceled cruise #3).
  14. IIRC, Vision class did not have the option to transfer / charge to the room. You had to go to the cashier and there was a 5% surcharge.
  15. Back on topic ... Body of third construction worker recovered from Key Bridge wreckage in Baltimore (msn.com)
  16. Vision is going to drydock after the April 12th sailing.
  17. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/cruises?search=departurePort:BWI|nights:gte12&country=USA Complain to RCI, not ME. Cape Liberty: With Barbados and St. Lucia = Southern Without = Eastern https://www.royalcaribbean.com/cruises?search=departurePort:BYE|nights:9~11,gte12|ship:AN,OY&country=USA
  18. Drove and parked. FRI and SAT are the sail dates. Why do you care what RCI calls the port???? Make sure you correct all the people that call Cape Liberty -> Port Liberty. BTW, RCI luggage tag is BYE.
  19. Barbados and St. Lucia are Southern Caribbean. And I've been to both on Grandeur from Baltimore. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Caribbean
  20. The big advantage for me is less traffic, minimal tolls, and half price parking. I prefer Baltimore over Cape Liberty. YMMV.
  21. My experience has been when requesting via email, I get an automated reply that the email was received, then I get a reply that the OBC was applied. My experience when requesting via the form was no email that the request was received and inconsistent response that it's been applied. YMMV.
