Re-read my post, I did email them. That is why it took me a week to get a response that was, "sorry, we can't give out employee names." Hence my eye roll 🙄-- it does the comedian no favors to not be able to promote his work. Not Gary. Thank you for trying to help! 🙂 Sadly, not Phil. Thank you for trying to help! 🙂 FYI, I asked on another thread that specifically talked about this cruise. No name discovered as of yet but here is an another clue someone added, he has the old hippie type of vibe. Slight scraggily gray hair, clothes are fine just a tad disheveled. Fits his persona to a tee!

Yes!! Exactly, old hippie. He was entertaining. Such a bummer we can't remember his name.

Just looked him up, no. Too young. But thanks for trying! 😊

Sailed the 8 night Odyssey on 30Mar. On the last night there was an adult comedy show in the main theater at 10pm. My husband and I got a kick out of the comedian and would like to see if he has anything online or if he does shows on land. Only problem ... we cannot remember his name! 🤦‍♀️ Before you say, contact RCCL, we already did. Emailed the night we arrived home. Finally heard back today, only to be told they cannot give out names of employees. 🙄 So, anyone on that cruise know the comedian's name who performed on the last night? If not on that cruise, you still may have had him on one of your RCCL cruises before. Gentleman in his mid 60's, he opened up for a quite a few rock and roll acts back in the day. He talks about marriage (married twice), getting older, and family. I know he really likes RCCL, he spoke highly of them. For the life of us we tried Google and YouTube and have come up empty. Never hurts to try and see if someone may know who this mystery comedian is.

I was on this sailing as well. Any chance you can remember the name of the comedian that was on Night 8 and did the adult comedy at 10pm in the theater? I emailed RCCL when we got home and just had a response today saying they cannot tell me for "privacy reasons." 🙄 So his name and picture can be all over the ship but if I ask afterwards it is not allowed. Feel bad for the comedian, can't spread word of mouth or go see him again without knowing his name. 🤦‍♀️

I’m not super tech savvy, so I need verification to make sure I’m out of luck. Have iPhone. Husband and I had nightly ritual on last Celebrity cruise to grab a slice of pizza and a beer and head to room to stream Big Bang, Seinfeld, or Friends before bed. Easily accessible from iPhone to TV with no issues. Simple! Attempted to do this last night on Odyssey. Went to iPhone doing exactly as described on TV: login address, entered 4 digit code, all was set … BUT it’s Chromecast. TV not recognized on my iPhone. Tried hitting AirPlay, nothing. Is there a way I can mirror my iPhone apps to TV? I tried searching last night to find something to allow compatibility, but all I saw only allow pictures, music, or YouTube. No apps such as Max, or Netflix. What a bummer if RCCL left iPhone users without mirroring capabilities.

You are correct. I didn’t scroll as I am not interested in lunch, only dinners. But don’t want to cause confusion. Oops. We have the 3 night dining and that will be used for Giovanni’s, Chops, and Wonderland. Izumi was booked separately as it has an up charge with 3 night plan. With our teen, breakfast and dinner are the meals we have as a family. Mid day on sea days (when we’d book lunch) she’s gone off with friends and the last thing we want to do pull her away for a “forced” lunch. As a typical teen can do, if she’s miserable it can suck the life out of a good time. I could always book a lunch just for the two of us, but since I have the 3 night package I feel it could be a little too much.

I saved $152. Big savings was with VOOM and Refreshment Package for my daughter. VOOM $80 savings! Refreshment was $57. The other was a slightly cheaper excursion, but only little bit. Discounts for Coco Cay were maxed at 15% off. Dining still at 10% (I did better with Halloween sale at 20%). Unlimited Beverage said 30% off, but it was more than what I paid for 30% off for Halloween sale. So they upped the priced. Glad I got in when I did. Of course I will keep watching, Takes a few minutes to check and worth it to me. 🙂

Calendar days, not business days.

I think our refund took 7-10 days to post on our credit card account.

That's the thing I find perplexing. Miami provides no clarity because some ships do the turndown, while others refuse. It is a free for all depending upon who is in charge of the ship.

You definitely have a point, but honestly it seems ridiculous staterooms using a couch or pullman have to go an entire cruise having to dismantle or make the bed by the guests themselves. As PP said, they are getting tips for 3 people, not 2. I am not asking for a huge extra. If my stateroom attendant refuses, then I will politely go up the chain and use that message as having inquired about it before sailing. It may very well mean nothing, but I put my effort in to find out beforehand. They should honor what was stated. Whether they will or not remains to be seen. But yes, I will be very irritated if I have to dismantle the bed every day. I only wish I could be in a suite, but they were already sold out before I booked this trip.

After all this back and forth about yes they will, no they won't I went to RCCL Twitter (or X) and messaged them. Their response: So now I have it from RCCL representative that it should be included.

That is really disappointing to hear. I am not asking for a complete service of room, just service the bed for the evening. Sounds like it is a crap shoot, depends upon ship and your room steward. We are simple, don't ask for any extras but I guess having a couch being a couch in the daytime and having it a bed in the evening so too much. 😫

I wish I could. All suites are sold out for our trip. 😞
