    That is really interesting and I wish it would happen to me every once in a while. I have a nice spreadsheet to keep track of them and make sure that it happens.

    This is why I have a TA. Dealing with Royal sometimes doesn’t work well, but having a TA go to bat for you helps a lot.

    I agree. I just called last week for 3 price drops with no problems.

    We also always go early, just wish it was longer.

    That is interesting to me that you like the track. We were on the Grandeur last year for 3 cruises and will be again in August and that is the one thing that we don’t like on the Grandeur. So many laps(I believe 8)just to get a mile in.

    They used to have double points for cruising in the month of December. In 2021 we cruised with double points on many cruises. Double points now are earned if you book a JS or higher.

    Me too. Have thoroughly enjoyed all of the cheers with an officer events.

    You are correct, Adventure does have 2 water slides.
  9. Tlbecker1
    We are also.

    It looks like it will be the Reflection and the Beyond.

    We also use Allianz, affordable piece of mind.

    It has been a while since I have been on HAI, but I have been on Celebrity and Royal in the past year. My first thought would be that Royal is more family oriented and kid friendly along with many more activities. Royal has a younger clientele for sure. On our last 2 Celebrity cruises we have only seen 5+ kids, on Royal there will be many more.

    I can also add it isn’t on the Anthem, Ovation, Quantum, Odyssey, Explorer, Symphony, Grandeur, Radiance, and Rhapsody.

    Definitely no prepaid gratuities.

    This is what I thought also when I purchased the Voom package, but I was never able to access my 2 days of internet. They told me that is was due to me purchasing the Voom. 😞 That is what happened on the Rhapsody in May.

    It does sound excessive. We went there in 2021 and paid $80/pp. we enjoyed it, but $170 is outrageous.

    You can enjoy a lounge chair at the beach or the pool for free. No cost to enjoy yourself, that is only if you elect to go to the water park, rent a cabana, enjoy the hot air balloon, zip line, etc. We have done the water park(which is fun), but you don’t have to pay for anything if you don’t want to.

    Just last week we scored with our TA for November 24. Oceanview balcony for $1400/person. There are deals out there still 😀

    I don’t know how group rates work either, but I agree with you that you can score some great cruise deals. We just booked a group rate for the ICON with our TA and saved over $900.

    We have a Royal credit card, but we don’t use it. We use our Citibank card which has much better perks.

    I will always opt to have a TA. Currently, I am working on getting a credit that Royal owes me for a cancelled cruise from February. Received most of the money owing, but not all that was promised. I am so thankful I have someone as the “middle person” talking to Royal on my behalf. I also enjoy the additional perks that come with a TA.

    Exactly, that is The Book. Odyssey isn’t cruising in Alaska and that is why I mentioned it that way.

    You will not need to book any of your shows on the Quantum Class, that only is necessary on the Oasis Class ships. Room service has never been important to us, so I can’t comment on that.
  24. Tlbecker1
    Sometimes I get a confirmation and sometimes not. I also submit it right after booking.

    We love the Anthem! And we always enjoy the We Will Rock you show. We have seen Spectra on Quantum, Anthem and Ovation and don’t need to see it anymore.
