They usually appear 30 days out.

You’re most likely seeing the current sailing’s menus, not yours, even though you’re logged into your date. I have a 5-nighter on Allure in 11 days and there’s a night 6 menu for MDR deck 3 (lobster night b/c Allure is currently doing 7N cruises). Oddly, if I check MDR deck 4 or 5 it says closed on day 6 like it should. The app isn’t 100% accurate until embarkation day, in my experience.

Low bar, lol, but I hope you’re right.

It’s easier with a more standard 7N cruise (like I might tell my TA to put a hold on a certain cabin type/location on ship XYZ from PC for Sunday June 3rd as soon as they come out). If you have a general idea of when the Westbound TA you want will be you can just give general instructions. And of course this requires having a good TA.

Use a TA and put your “order” in well in advance.

It's not, I tried that before suggesting the compass at the other site.

I wasn't saying it will be sailing in Europe; I just don't want it to come to PC (my home port). But since I'm accepting that it likely will, I'm hoping it's not until after the early June cruise we normally take. Selfishly, I don't care what it's doing in June, but I'll root for you to get her for a bit since you seem excited about it. 🤞

I'm not giving up hope, lol. Wonder is listed as visiting St. Maarten every other week in June 2025 on the port site. That would indicate it's still doing 7N cruises in June. It disappears from the schedule in July... which jives with my theory that Star may not take over until a bit later in the summer (July). That's my story and I'm sticking to it! 😁 https://gls.portstmaarten.sx/sxm/MainMenu.aspx?ShipScheduleType=2 Date Day Time Homeport CRN Vessel Remarks Pier 02-06 Mon 11:59 - 19:00 SX250307 LIBERTY OF THE SEAS 03-06 Tue 08:00 - 17:00 SX250308 ICON OF THE SEAS 04-06 Wed 08:00 - 18:00 SX250309 OASIS OF THE SEAS 11-06 Wed 08:00 - 18:00 SX250475 CELEBRITY BEYOND 11-06 Wed 08:00 - 18:00 SX250310 RHAPSODY OF THE SEAS 12-06 Thu 08:00 - 17:00 SX250311 WONDER OF THE SEAS 18-06 Wed 08:00 - 18:00 SX250312 RHAPSODY OF THE SEAS 25-06 Wed 08:00 - 17:00 SX250313 RHAPSODY OF THE SEAS 26-06 Thu 08:00 - 18:00 SX250430 CELEBRITY BEYOND 26-06 Thu 08:00 - 17:00 SX250314 WONDER OF THE SEAS

Not sure if I can post a link here but there is another popular Roal Caribbean Blog site that has cruise compasses for Voyager 5-nighters from August you could check.

That just gets you a Chops steak, not the experience.

The OP is asking for the menus not a dining package.

You typoed "I" with "We". I'd try Q-class but I'd be fine sailing Oasis class til the end of time, lol.

That was my initial thought but some ship will certainly be doing PC 7N in May/June before Star. You think it will just be another one?

Thought about this last night. Since Star is only being advertised as "Summer 2025", it seems like there's a possibility that Wonder will still be doing 7N at PC in May/June before Star takes over (just like Allure is doing the 3/4's until Utopia takes over in July 2024). Technically early June isn't even summer but that's just semantics. Does that logic seem reasonable to you?

No.

To keep my cabin, pay for an upgrade, and/or try to RoyalUp. It's been this way for a very very long time but you're obviously entitled to your opinion. FWIW, if you use a TA, Royal doesn't even lift a finger. Your TA can switch you without even contacting Royal.

It has nothing to do with what I want. Those are RC's rules. If they tell me I can change my GTY cabin after it is assigned, are you suggesting I should not because you think their rules make no sense?

Yes. Once you're linked you're all good.

Yes, because it's allowed (if booking from the US at least), so why shouldn't he?

Pretty much that. Sometimes a TA can see more rooms than you can but sounds like you booked direct. You can also ask when you call but chances are the phone rep will list the same cabins you see.

You have to wait until you are officially assigned the cabin (i.e. it shows up on your set sail pass and other documents, not just with the bar code trick). Then, you either ask your TA to move you or, if you booked directly, you call RC and ask to be moved. I've done it numerous times.... even more than once for the same cruise.

It’s still there, btw, just very short. My wife & I took a walk to check last year & found a very angry rooster, lol. It’s not worth seeing tbh but we wanted to take a morning walk.

Labadee = burgers, hot dogs, chicken, salad. Cococay = A lot more (plus the above). Not convincing you of anything, you know I mention personal preference all the time. There’s no right or wrong here. You don’t care as much about food, neither of us just want to bake on a beach for 5 hours, others do, etc. I will always maintain that one of the best parts of cruising is that it can be enjoyed in an almost infinite number of ways.

Sure, but you have to factor in all the other things that come with each. Food, entertainment, loyalty perks, activities, etc. And just because I may enjoy spending most of one day at CocoCay (and not for the beach) doesn't mean I don't love being on the ship for the rest of the cruise and/or the other port stops.
