Wow, some interesting experiences for sure!  And very different.  But ok...I guess it's a "wait and see" type thing, lol.  We aren't supposed to board until 1:30 but that will make my daughter very late for work after the dropoff.  Oh well, this should be interesting! lol

Red Devil here (Lakewood) Call C&A  Diamond they may help change the time. Long time since i saw your last post. Have a great cruise.

Yes, we had rented a scooter from specialneedsatsea.com for $235 for 7 day cruise out of Bayonne on 8.28

Price is much better than scootaround and the service was terrific.

They will leave the scooter in your cabin.

If you need wheelchair assistance to get into the terminal ask one of the port workers at front door.

Then once inside the terminal and through security go to your far left and they can transfer you to a royal caribbean chair that a crew member will push for you to board the ship.

Rooms are ready around 1 pm so if you check in around 1 or after they can take you to your cabin on the wheelchair.

If you check in early, we did 11 am and went to lunch.  Then at 1 pm I went to cabin and rode the scooter to where my hubby was waiting.  

When cruise was over we met with wheelchair assistance group, make reservation with guest services for your departure time.   And we left the scooter on the promenade deck with other scooters.

Worked great!

I use them all the time for my wife. Never had an issue. What are your questions?

Price, where do you pick them up who do you contact?

Does anyone have information regarding scooter rental from Bayonne on the  Anthem?

Thanks for the help

I was booked on the Freedom 9/30/21 and have already shifted to Adventure 9/29/22 so yes it was allowed.

Thanks

I would assume  that would be allowed as it is doing the same itinerary and it was one ship replacing another. 

Thanks

Point is that there are no 9 day cruises departing in October which is what Ashland needs. There are 2 gaps in the itineraries that have not been released. 
 

Its departure date that matters not what moths the cruise May overlap. 

I am on the same cruise as Ashland  Oct. 2021 Freedom. If the cruise is canceled can we lift & shift to 2022 to the Adventure as the Freedom will not be in New Jersey?

Just added another 28 points for March break 2022.....thanks to Empress. 

As a single cruiser i would get 14  points for my 7 night cruise would i now get 28 points?     And 44 points for my 11 day Cruise in Jan. 31 2022?

Ken thanks for the info you have given.

Question? I booked a cruise 5 days ago for Jan. 2021 at a good price however my kids don't want me to go. Do you think i can Lift & shift to the same cruise in Jan.2022 even tho the price is higher

Had booked Adventure for Oct. 8 2020 New England and did a lift & shift to Freedom Oct 14 2021  New England out of Cape Liberty. 

See YA

What Economic impact does not having cruise ships (all) sailing?  No food, liquid, fuel, port staff, luggage handlers, crew etc. Has to hurt a lot of places.

From my friend who lives in Portland.

Hi Dick, No cruise ships with more than 50 people this summer. State will reconsider in Sept. Also, anyone coming into the state must self quarantine for 14 days. This order extends through August.

They are professionals.  It won't take them long to get back up to speed for the shows they were already performing.

Are they still working for Royal or did they get work someplace else?

If and when we can cruise again how long will it take to get the Entertainers for production shows up and running?? 

Remove Doctors note

Does anyone know what this medical statement has to state?  like list hypertension, etc?

Not sure if this official but check it out.

More room in the Diamond Lounge without the 70s and up crowd.

With this new 70s policy it looks as tho Royal wants to make more room in the Diamond lounge.

Over 70--When do you need note? At time of booking (which could be 18 months from sail date) final payment or day of boarding??? If booked and you can't go because you do not have note from Doc. do you get refund?

I believe when we booked our Grandeur of the Seas cruise for Feb. 28, 2020, our itinerary first stop was Charleston and last stop was Nassau. Today as I look at the Feb. 28 cruise it shows the direct opposite with Nassau as first stop, Coco Cay second, Orlando (Port Canaveral) Florida third and Charleston the last stop. Is there a change in immigration if we are coming back from Coco Cay  (Bahamas) to Port Canaveral, Florida? Thanks to all for responses. Do we have to exit the ship in Port Canaveral and go through immigration???

The itinerary did not change.

The web page is wrong. Called C&A they checked and it's the same as when we booked.

Have a good day.  See you on board.
