RC Assigned Check-in Time - Flexable?
Sunshine3601 replied to susanf31's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Agreed. Of all our cruises, assigned boarding times are never checked" ____________________________________________ So if boarding times are not checked, then you can enter the terminal before your boarding time. Which is EXACTLY what the security agent told me last Sunday. He said "the doors open at 10:00 and you can walk right in." If there's no lines, perhaps they will let them check in. If they can't, then they can take a seat inside the terminal and await their boarding time. So think of this way. My boarding time is 10 am. I arrive at 10 am as Scheduled with my parents in their 80's who cannot stand in long lines for extended periods of time, especially in the heat. Now we have to Wait because you and other "entitled people" got into the terminal before us!!! Is that Fair??? Ask your Parents if that is Fair? Maybe next time you want to stay up until midnight to get a 10 am check in time like a lot of us do!!! I have a feeling it doesn't matter what any of our opinions are anyway. -
We have an abundant amount of cucumbers from our garden this year. I am looking for suggestions on what to make with them. I have given a lot away to neighbors and this weekend may set up a Help yourself - Free produce at end of driveway. So far I have made cucumber salads, cucumber water, just made a pitcher of cumber mint mojitos (Boy are they Good!) and I found this recipe I want to try this weekend. https://www.marthastewart.com/1118951/chilled-melon-cucumber-and-mint-soup Any suggestions?

Internet package for FaceTime?
Sunshine3601 replied to jennianne's topic in Royal Caribbean International
If you find internet in your cabin to be crappy. Try going to a different area on the ship. I find the library/computer room on deck 6 of Quantum class (2nd floor of 270) usually has a strong signal. Some posters say that if you disconnect from internet and reconnect in another location that can help too. -
Online check-in in app or online?
Sunshine3601 replied to Harley-Davidson_Family's topic in Royal Caribbean International
This what I do for most cruises too. I find it easier to enter in passport info, etc. Plus I have my 'cheat sheet" that has everyone's info. written down to make it easier. Although I do go to the app and download our vax cards. I always print out set sail pass and bring paper copies of covid test, passports and original vax cards. So much easier than fumbling thru my phone looking for everyone's stuff to show an agent at check in. -
We got the same email. Bummerπ

Is 7 day dining package a good choice?
Sunshine3601 replied to 7680's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Book your dining pkg now and if you see a lower price, maybe black Friday sale, you can cancel that order and rebook at lower price. This can be done with any items in cruise planner. If you have status with celebrity you can use to get status with Royal. Diamond members get 4 free drink vouchers, D+ get 5. This may help with your decision about drink pkg. -
Changes, different & what to expect
Sunshine3601 replied to gottagoacruzn's topic in Royal Caribbean International
They won't know it's your first cruise back unless you tell them. Almost everything is back to precovid. Except waiters do not do the song and dance in MDR anymore. Kinda glad that stopped. Hope you enjoy π -
Ask the MDR host if you could have an 815 or 830 dining for that evening. We have done it before and they will almost always accommodate you. If unable then you could go WJ, maybe Johnny Rockets, should be some decent options.

What happens when the line cancels?
Sunshine3601 replied to Beth and Bailey's topic in Royal Caribbean International
They may move your booking to another ship with price protection, offer you a FCC or refund. The days of Lift and shift to a sailing of your choice ended sometime last year and doubt that would be an option, if your sailing is cancelled. -
Thank you for this information. I definitely would not wait past the 90-days mark either. Hopefully you will see a price drop before your final payment date. That is always nice π

We have been intrigued by river cruises and have looked at a couple different itineraries through different companies and decided maybe when we retire we will give it a try. I like that you get a lot more scenery while cruising rivers than oceans but I would probably miss the ocean. And you can dock at places that cruise ships could never dock. Are the cabins similar in size to say a balcony cabin on Royal?

I was just saying to Eric the other day I am thankful the boys are grown and out on their own as we would go broke feeding them at these prices. Teenage boys definitely can eat a lot of food and if your house happens to be the hang out place for after school, forget it the cabinets are bare by the time you get home from work.
