I will be looking for pics of this destruction on Youtube today.

Didn't read the whole thread and I'm sure you've been told this, but that is the main reason for insurance. Anyone with serious health problems should never book without it. It is so inexpensive when you think about it. InsureMyTrip.com And don't think any other cruise line doesn't have the exact same policy...they do!

NOT! Straight to the brig! That may put the fear of God in them.

Where is a branding iron when you need it!?😠

Call RCCL and ask for them to be linked, they need to give their permission.

My Grandson was almost caught up in an incident once on Freedom...back in the day when the young girls were wearing those wolf tails, did you ever see that? A teen boy was harassing a teen girl and my 15 year old Grandson stepped in to make him stop. He thought he was being a good Samaritan, but I let him know we could have all been kicked off...he got punished by his Mom, not the culprit. The security team did come talk to him but he is a gentleman and they acknowledged that and told him to make a report and never take matters into his own hands. It was a good lesson. He's now in the air force in Italy. But still it rankles that some are allowed to get away with such disrespect for others. Even if they were wearing wolf tails! I hate to think of Beautiful Odyssey with broken elevator glass and such....a pity. In the words of Cpt. Call..."I can't abide rudeness in a man"!

ANd the tornado across that screen behind the action....WOW!

You need to enlarge that emoji. I can barely tell that's popcorn! LOL

How in the world do they know it was FLU anyway? Who does...ever. Unless you give a sample to be tested it can be just a cold, no FLU shot anywhere will protect you from that or Noro. A chance one takes if you step out your door. Much ado about nothing, but it's their privilege to gripe. I don't cruise to eat so that would never deter me. I cruise for the fantastic feeling we get on the big blue and the fun we have, WE are in control of that, not the cruise line nor any other cruiser.

Until I can no longer move I will be cruising. I am an OCD planner, plan very carefully, and I really believe we get the most for our money, even with the rise in fare and changes in food. To each their own. Hope you have great land vacations in future. But as my moniker says, Keep calm and Cruise on baby!

Oh boy!

That's my point, they almost always do make me happy. If it happened a couple times...meh. Into each life some rain must fall, but a little rain can't hurt me.

Didn't say I ate every bite. But one helping is enough. I have left things I didn't like, but on only a couple of occasions have I ordered an additional entree because I didn't like the one they brought first. I hate wasting food, that's all.

I'm calling in with my request for these items. I at least want one set. I think they're nice. Do NOT like the block, won't match my others...boo hiss. But it's ok. And we got these at Diamond level back in the day much less than 340. I have several of the old totes whose zippers broke easily that we got for only being diamond. Hoping these are made a bit better, but looks like they are. Diamond Plus and Pinnacle Club: NEW AMENITIES NOW AVAILABLE Your favorite amenities are back in stock — plus we’ve added new ones! We’re introducing stylish new toiletry bags and upgraded totes So at 175 points.

If I am happy and satiated at the end of the meal, everybody gets a 10. I really can't remember if that never happened or not...I guess I'm just a happy kind of traveler. I have made comments to the Matre-d before about what could be prepared better though, and made special requests, but I stand by my mantra, happy and satisfied...a 10~ I don't get annoyed with the constant begging for 10s...I just smile and keep eating!

I have never in over 30 cruises ordered more than one main or dessert. Don't get it. BUT, I am certainly in favor of wasting less food. I've seen too many folks in MDR ordering enough food for several and then leaving most of it on the plate, it disgusts me. At home I use every scrap of leftovers, either to reheat or make another dish out of it like stew, etc. I am the product of depression era parents. Frugality in all things 😇

I am addicted to the stuff but they've skimped on the crystal sugar topping lately. I bring my own believe it or not.

Nothing they've ever had since can replace the Honey Stung Chicken we used to get on boarding day...I sure hope they revisit it.

Like the toilet bag, nice, and the tote is better than the old ones I have, But the block is tacky compared to my etched ship ones...😪 I will not display my next one with my others. I always put the crystal ones with something dark in back you can see them perfectly.

Funny in 28 cruises now with personal requests made and granted with everything to 16 people to table for 2 on the window or in center of the main MDR, we've never had that happen. So sorry.

Just got this from Mona Gutierrez so guess Prieto is no longer with them Reply was within a couple hours,....as usual. Hello, I have been OOO last week , but yes I am still here. Dining request can be send to rcldining@rccl.com as well. It will be distributed to the correct agent handling the specific ship.

What is your opinion Lloyd? Do you think she will be complete by January!?

I think the Pearl will be more than a glorified entry. Think of all they could do with it. They could have film of the port of the day to let you know where you are that day and what you could see there. Boarding day could be film of the spectacular venues on board that you could see, photos of the ship itself and sailaway live like a virtual balcony cabin which use live feeds around the ship already! Video of entertainment onboard, etc. Opportunities are endless. I think it will go over great.

Speaking of that...I warned my MIL once about buying in the port at Cozumel. Logic tells me if 10 shops have the same "sapphire" ring for $400, odds are it's not real gemstone...she bought it anyway. Turns out after a "gemologist jewelry appraisal" it was simulated. $400 down the drain with no hope of a refund. Buyer beware.
