We've got a Spring cruise in March. When I initially booked it, I went ahead and booked the "free" Open Bar perk, but I'm having second thoughts. It's dumb, because I KNOW we'd save money without it. I don't drink basically any alcohol (last alcoholic beverage I had was in... 2013?), my sister may have one alcoholic drink per day but does love mocktails. So her perspective is that the perk gives extra freedom to a) try new alcoholic things for "free" and b) have all the virgin daiquiris she wants without worrying about cost adding up, since it's basically prepaid. Personally, I preferred RCCL's options of having a soda package, a soda and mocktail package, and then the alcohol package. I'm also worried about annoying my travel agent with trying to... un-choose the Open Bar perk.
Any advice or thoughts?

I watched a ship tour video on the Magic when we originally booked. It showed some hammocks in the Serenity adult only area. However, I just watched a more recent video and... no hammocks. 😱 My sister was very much looking forward to that, so I was wondering if they're completely gone, a seasonal thing, or what the deal is. Are there any public hammocks available on the ship?

Awesome, thanks!

We had initially booked for Person A and Person B to go on an excursion. However, B is no longer going with us, so Person C would like to go on the excursion with A. Is that something we can do or do we need to cancel and re-book under C's name?

With the free at sea beverage package, you can get frozen mocktails such as virgin daiquiris and margaritas but you can not get smoothies, freshly squeezed juices or Starbucks coffee. All adults in the same cabin need to have the beverage package, but it would not be worth the price (free does not mean free!) if you don’t drink alcohol. Way cheaper to order as you go.
About how much do the smoothies run per drink?

Also, is there a difference between juice bar smoothies and regular bar frozen mocktails?

We're currently booked for a July cruise on Getaway with the Free at Sea "open bar". I'm pretty sure this is MORE than sufficient for our preferences, but... My sister is a BIG smoothie/mocktail drinker. She saw... somewhere that the juice bar(s) might have smoothies that are not included in the base FaS package and I'm looking for any information. Basically, will the package cover non-alcoholic, non-coffee, frozen/blended drinks?

you may want to call to see if the thermal suites are open yet. Also, can I suggest looking at YouTube videos to make sure it's worth it to you? The thermal suites on the older RCCL ships are not quite as good as Carnival or NCL IMO.
It's our first cruise, so we have nothing to compare it to. lol

I went to book the thermal suite pass for my upcoming cruise (Brilliance of the Seas), but it says there are no offerings available when prompted to fill out the date. Is there any chance I'd be able to book in once onboard or is it likely fully sold out?
Second thought about "Free at Sea" open bar...

This would be much easier to answer if I knew how much said mocktails cost. Like, I can make a guess on how much she'd drink, but the answer to the question would depend on if the mocktails are say $5 vs $10.
