  1. Full world cruisers were on their own for that one, as well as several others. India, Australia, New Zealand, Vietnam Nam, etc.. Royal is pretty much only doing visa's for world cruisers doing Africa. Probably because they changed the itinerary.
  2. He had Sri Lanka worked out before he left. Latest hurdle was a Singapore arrival card. Filled it out before he boarded his flight from JFK
  3. According to an oboard entertainer who is dating an engineer, she was told her boyfriend has seen plans for a new Royal ship under 100,000 tons. Defined third hand information
  4. John uses a giant telephoto on his camera. 70×300 and 150 x 600. Image Stabilization is key
  5. John is on his way back to the ship. Getting back on in Singapore. I believe he's now in Qatar with a 6 hour layover. He got to fly in or out of the top 3 airports in the world. Hard to believe not one US airport made this list It was nice he could come home for a couple weeks.
  6. The variety of ways Royal can grab your money is mind boggling
  7. Serenade is doing $69 per leg for all digital and up to 100 prints. That price is good if you commit to at least 9 of the 17 legs.
  8. With the Africa change, Royal offered to refund your pro rated fare for the days you wanted to miss. Plus you could leave your stuff in your cabin. Very generous. For those staying on, Royal refunded 25% of the affected daily rate. It was given in a refundable OBC. Showed up today. John needs to call Royal and see how his was handled since he closed his account yesterday
  9. Usually you submit a trip interruption request. Not a big deal, but port needs to have immigration agents available. John was an emergency request, and they made it happen
  10. John left the ship in Seoul to spend time with Bella and I. He should return in Singapore
  11. 6 days out of 7 Royal has a string trio in the Centrum during afternoon and pre dinner
  12. While sailing round Hong Kong Island, the ship had to alter course when an unlit ferry crossed her path. The action caused a huge wave in both pools that flooded the pool deck and into forward elevators. Glassware in Schooner came crashing down as well. Not sure about any other damage. Happened sometime between 9 and 930
  13. Yep, also met Scott Conant. He makes a fabulous meatball Who knows what today will bring
  14. Yep, getting close to Hong Kong, but Starlink seems to have a hub there. I'm enjoying my Food Network charter and have a new bestie😉
  15. John went mirrorless for this trip, but stayed with Canon and an adapter. The expensive lens isn't long, it's just really heavy. Look him up when you board
  16. Lenses? John paid that for one and he never uses it because it's to heavy🤣🤣 It's a ridiculous hobby.
  17. John says shutter speed and iso can be ser on his phone, not sure about rest. Aperture is set depending which of the 4 lenses you select
