As soon as you step on the ship. In fact, it's mandatory to use one within the first hour.

It's on Deck 4 forward and they have two self-serve coffee machines that make espresso-based drinks like cappuccinos, lattes, etc.

I'm not interested in getting too heavily involved in the tip discussion, but... Someone who claimed to have previously worked as a bartender on Oasis recently did an AMA on Reddit and claimed they they did indeed receive a tip when you use a voucher. The math was a bit convoluted but basically he said he received a little over $1 per drink from RC. Believe it, don't believe it, just sharing.

And yet you can get $11 milkshakes and $14 adult root beer floats from Mason Jar on Wonder with vouchers. Those other JR milkshakes must be really special. My wife got a couple regular JR shakes that were pretty small last week... but they tasted good and she's not holding up her end of the bargain, lol. Now that we have 10 instead of 8 I really need to step up my drinking game. 🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹

Ignore, misread something.

Sounds like you’re doing both. You enjoyed Royal from the start and the perks just add to the enjoyment so of course you stick with them. Thats how I feel about our situation. We wouldn’t have continued with RC if we didn’t enjoy our cruises so much but gaining additional perks will only make us enjoy our cruises that much more. We just turned D+ last week and of course I was looking forward to it. Can’t wait to use some of our new perks this summer!

Wonder of the Seas impressions 3/17-3/24
OCSC Mike replied to danoconnl's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Interesting. I believe you but that didn't work for us last week. We share one internet account and if my wife was logged in and sent me a pic via iMessage I wouldn't receive it until we switched and I was logged in. Neither of us tried to message anyone else unless we were logged in. -
Wonder of the Seas impressions 3/17-3/24
OCSC Mike replied to danoconnl's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We were onboard with you! Had a great time as always and agree with many of your opinions. Sailing through those storms Saturday was quite the experience. Seas were calm but certain areas of the ship (like the Solarium) were experiencing minor flooding, lol. Can't wait to be back on my favorite ship this summer! P.S. I saw Voices on a previous cruise and you didn't miss anything, IMO. It's the ice show we love on Wonder. -
Yep, definitely subjective and we all like what we like. We loved Mason Jar brunch (never had dinner and don't plan to) as much last week as we did the first time and can't wait to be back there this summer.

This. You can't book open skating, laser tag, and maybe something else until you board and connect to the ship wifi.

Hey @BillOh, Just got off Wonder this morning. I don't think I have any answers to your recent questions but I posted a ton in a live blog on that other site if you haven't seen it. We had a WONDERful time as expected. Can't wait to be back aboard in 10 weeks!

Not just you and pretty annoying. -
Is Hideaway Beach Worth it? - CocoCay
OCSC Mike replied to artvlay's topic in Royal Caribbean International
This. We passed at $19.99pp b/c we don't value a heated pool, we love the regular included food, and my wife wouldn't even try any of the additional food items at Hideaway b/c she's picky. I'd rather spend $40 at Playmakers or Mason Jar. At $60pp? I'd sooner have dinner at a specialty restaurant than spend it on Hideaway Beach. Everyone values things differently. -
It's one long beach... Cove Beach is just slightly farther away from everything. I've never spent time at either though I've walked past them. I guess Cove Beach may be slightly quieter? "Better" is subjective depending on what you want to be closer or farther from.

What essentials and fun items do you bring?
OCSC Mike replied to Love2cruise-71's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Exactly the same as us. P.S. Fly Eagles Fly (and PLEASE get a defense). Born and raised in the Philly 'burbs myself as was my wife. -
Anyone cruised without drinks package?
OCSC Mike replied to Frapaccino's topic in Royal Caribbean International
People have reported seeing them in recent weeks on Wonder. I believe it’s $90 now.
