We have Verizon. When we sailed on Scarlet Lady and Mardi Gras a few months ago mine worked but my husband's didn't, so we used What's App. Before our Harmony cruise last month I had him try it at home to see if we could figure out the issue. I'm not sure what the problem was but he got it to work before we left and it worked on our cruise.

Friend Backed Out, Now Going Solo. But.....
dcgrumpy replied to kpgibbs's topic in Royal Caribbean International
There were some crazy rates on Oasis this past Fall. It was actually cheaper for a couple to get 2 rooms over sharing a room. I had never seen that before. -

Who is consulting a lawyer? About what? I don't understand what any of this has to do with the OP. -

Did you post in the correct thread? 🤷♀️ -
ITA We sailed with Captain Johnny in May. We loved him

Outrageous Cost of Alcohol Package
dcgrumpy replied to MattnTricia's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We sailed on Scarlet Lady and are planning to sail again. I didn't find the prices bad considering like you said it's a brand new ship, it includes gratuities, all restaurants are included, soda and sparkling water is included. My husband absolutely loved having a carafe of sparkling water in the room twice a day. LOL. Drink prices are pretty reasonable and there are no gratuities added on. We had $400 in "bar tab" money and it lasted for a 5 night cruise. We only paid $300 for the bar tab, the $100 was a bonus. -
I'm sailing on Mariner in July. I'm hoping it's a better experience than Harmony 3 weeks ago. I figure it can't be worse. LOL. I'm going in with low expectations, hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised. The only Carnival ship that day is Mardi Gras, so Terminal 6 should be empty.

On Brilliance now - Poor Dining choices for Vegetarians

Thanks, that's what I thought. I wanted to make sure. She's 19, she'll have no issue using her phone to read the menu. LOL -
On Brilliance now - Poor Dining choices for Vegetarians
dcgrumpy replied to Phils01's topic in Royal Caribbean International
So you can't order off of the vegan menu in the app? I'm sailing with my daughter this summer and thought that she could order from the menu in the app. The last time she sailed was back before they had an actual vegan menu. -
Outrageous Cost of Alcohol Package
dcgrumpy replied to MattnTricia's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I admit that I was really annoyed with the recent price increase. But when I do the math we still easily come out ahead. On our cruise 2 weeks ago, we were ahead by day 4. If we were beer drinkers it would be harder. But at $13 a drink, and few bottles of water and Pellegrino a day, plus the occasional latte we easily come out ahead. I'm 56, my husband is 50. -
Suite Guest boarding process now
dcgrumpy replied to RSLeesburg's topic in Royal Caribbean International
No May 15th. There was a separate suite line. Everyone else waited in one long line. -
Suite Guest boarding process now
dcgrumpy replied to RSLeesburg's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We had a good time. I wouldn't say it was my favorite cruise but I would sail on her again. Service was great, ship was in great shape. Except the stupid mister thing in the Solarium didn't work. LOL. I didn't think I would miss a pool in the Solarium, but it was so hot. A couple of times I just ran the shower over myself so I could cool off. One of my biggest complaints is holding events in venues that are too small. They had so many things in On Air, if you didn't get there an hour early you can forget getting a seat. And the activities team seemed a bit new and didn't know how a lot of the games that they were hosting even worked. But those are all very minor issues. And some dining venues like dinner in the Solarium Bistro haven't reopened. Some people in my FB group said that they were able to make a reservation beforehand and only found out when they boarded that it's still closed. But all in all we had a great time. -
Suite Guest boarding process now
dcgrumpy replied to RSLeesburg's topic in Royal Caribbean International
It wasn't like that 2 weeks ago. There were no separate queues. It was one long zigzag line like we were waiting to ride Space Mountain. We even asked when we arrived if there were separate lines and we were told no. We arrived at 11:25 for an 11:30 check in time. We waited outside for over an hour. -
Arriving at port day of cruise
dcgrumpy replied to zoepipes's topic in Royal Caribbean International
That doesn't give much wiggle room. Are you sailing out of Port Everglades or Miami? -
Suite Guest boarding process now
dcgrumpy replied to RSLeesburg's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We sailed on Harmony 2 weeks ago. They had a separate short line for suites/pinnacles/the Key. The rest of us were in one very, very, long line with no enforcement of check in times. what a **** show. So be very happy that you are in a suite. LOL -
No Labcorp, but the urgent care that we have used for 2 cruises doesn't list a CLIA # in the report. No one has questioned it.
