  1. Our cruise "was" in August. Final payment is now. Last night I called and cancelled our family cruise. It was a hard decision but one that all of us felt was the right one. We paid with refundable deposit over a year ago, plus made payments through out the year. We also made several purchases on the cruise planner as well. We also discussed paying it off in full now... waiting to see if Royal would cancel the sailing.... we would cancel closer to the sailing date (48 hours)... or actually going on the cruise if it was not cancelled. But in the end we choose to cancel now.  This family cruise was two years in the making.... 

    OP I know what you are going though deciding what is right for all involved. Good luck in your decision. 

     

  2. I have been looking into purchasing the digital photo package for our upcoming cruise on Adventure and have debating when to buy it. Yesterday I saw that it went down in price. As I looked into this more the description was different also. Earlier it stated this package was "Unlimited Digital Photos" , last night it did not mention this. So my question is are there more than one digital photo packages? Not sure if it's the same. since I only see one package. 

  3. Hi EDiamond22. I will be on Adventure this summer with hubby, daughter #1 & family, along with daughter #2 and her family for a total of 9 people (4 cabins).  Three of those are young children. If possible can you check out the height for the flowrider? Both boys are 10 & 9 years old and would LOVE to try it. Also if possible could you check out the cost of the digital photo package?  We (3 cabins) were thinking of buying it and hoping to get family group pictures that each would go on the 3 packages. 

    Thanks for your review and photos, keep them coming ..... when you have time, after all your on vacation. 

  4. Thank you Bob. Yes, both sons are young, 10 & 9 years old when they will be cruising. 

    Another question if you don't mind....   We are going on a cruise this summer with them and our other daughter and her family (husband & 1 young daughter) for a total of 9 people (4 cabins).  If 3 cabins purchase the photo package and only hand the photographer one seapass card when taken a group picture, does only the cabin that handed the photographer the card get the photo? In other words only that picture will show up in one package and not all three. 

  5. Hello and Happy New Year to all.  My daughter and one of her sons will be in 1 cabin and her husband and their other son will be in the next cabin (2 cabins total). Would they have to buy two digital packages since its two cabins (one family)?  They reside in the same household and have the same home address.

    Hi, JJTT. I am sorry to inform you that NO, you cannot open up these balconies.  The dividers are solid steel walls, my friend, and they are not going anywhere. I know exactly what you're talking about though. On some ships, the dividers are nothing more than plexiglass panels that slide right out and I saw plenty of people who did that on Oasis as well, as we could easily see the Boardwalk balcony rooms from the deck above and lots of the panels were opened. 

     

    We did lean out and talk to each other around the walls, occasionally, but it's not really the same, is it?  On the other hand, for what it's worth, these balconies are really quite private.  One time and only one time I got a slight whiff of smoke smell, but honestly that could have been drifting down from the smoking area up by the pool.  I never heard anyone else on their balcony and I think the solid walls help with that all the way around.

    Uggg, I was hoping they would open, until I saw your photos of the balcony. Oh well... it's not a deal breaker but it would have been nice. Thanks for answering my question. Looking forward for more of your review.

  7. Hi Kmom. Thanks for the review. We are going on Adventure next year as a family (2 adult daughters with their families). I was wondering if you can open the balcony dividers?  We were on Oasis a few years ago and we had side by side balcony cabins and were able to open them. This made for a very large balcony and we could walk from one cabin to another without going in the hallway. Again thanks for taking the time to write this review.
