I was taking some recent pictures, have some older ones I'd have to scroll to find. I was taking pictures of the "29" balconies over central park. These are sometimes as cheap or cheaper than insides as there are so many inside and outside balconies. You can hear a lot of guitar music at night, sometimes singing. Look down at the people.

I got a compass every day without asking. Maybe I look old. I'd be ok with not getting it, but so far keep getting one. I'm not sure your housekeeping rule is for everyone. Maybe some get late and some early. I got mid day on oasis and on radiance she kept coming (march 27 to april 6). They were just going to move to once a day.

I dont think that's a good conclusion. That person had a virtual balcony.. their royal up prices were based on already having a balcony. You are inside so of course your royal up based on moving from a inside. Balcony to a better balcony will be less.

I've been on 2 smaller ships. I see no one replied specifically about serenade. Both had pizza until 3 am in the solarium.

Maybe as a mattress is used it gets softer. I think a brand new mattress is too firm and want one broken in. As op said this was a new mattress, not broken in. I've had them before.

Yes royal has shuttles out of Galveston as do many private shuttles like saltwater moms. There is a vet group too dont remember their name. When I had friends fly in i met them and we all stayed the night in houston. Galveston hotels are older and probably cost 3 times more but you can walk along the ocean. When i see and smell the ocean i relax and my vacation starts. Look at hotels along seawall blvd in Galveston. Either option works. It will cost more to go to Galveston for the night.

I posted the same prices just included fees and taxes for the same cat lol. Several of us posted it. I said you have to click thru too. Oh well.

People dress how they want. No matter what it says. I wouldnt even worry how they word it.

As above with dp340 code I still got the discount. See example.

When you say you got $729 are you sure you changed it to 1 pax. Dp340 only works for 1 pax solo. As you see above I'm getting higher for 1 pax.

Here is what I got with and without the code, about $200 more

Idk if this is it but at the end of this month you cant cancel for covid and get a refund.

I do know how you feel cruising with your heart broken. Mid january my mom had a stroke and 5 days later passed away. I fell and broke my wrist and had 2nd time setting it the afternoon before her stroke. It's hard not to feel I maybe needed to have done more with her but I couldn't. The day after my surgery she was in the hospital beyond communication. Not a day goes by I dont miss her. We had her funeral on a friday and I had a cruise leaving the next monday I was a no show for. No insurance. I had 3 more paid in full cruises in march. It wasnt the same. I'm used to getting home and calling her I home safely. Talking to her every day. It's not the same cruising with a broken heart and i have tons of paperwork and Bill's waiting my attention. Some times all you can do is keep putting one foot in front of another. You lost a pet .. a part of your family. When I lost mine that too broke my heart. I sure sympathise. All you can do is go and enjoy as best you can.

I think you think it should show up like a texas resident discount. It changes my prices. Are you clicking thru to prices. Maybe give us a example date and ship so we cant check and see what you are looking at. Idk if mine always show up. Sometimes my ta has to get rcl to reprice them.

Only happened to me once and on carnival. They considered it a upgrade. My carnival person says read your contract, they have the right to change your cabin. A friend of mine boarded allure and had booked a spacious ov and got bumped to a central park balcony. He went to guest services and got a future credit. They told him a entertainer wanted his cabin and gave him what they considered a upgrade. Ov to balcony.

Yes solo pays x 2. As it says all pay x 2, even if 4 in the cabin. You make a offer and they immediately move you if accepted. You get no choice on if you like the location. Your credit card is charged. Some were less than thrilled I've read. Some happy.

Here is a recent thread. The above is true if you book nonrefundable and not a short cruise. I booked refundable 2nd solo so paid $250 regular deposit and $75 obc. For a 7 day. It varys by what you book.

I guess you are wedded to carnival no matter what. Agree a lot less motion on larger ships and not during hurricane season. Galveston has allure with the real broadway play mama mia right now. You book shows in different parts of the ship so crowds are less than on smaller ships. Some say so big you lose the ocean .. but for a first timer, less motion. I just got off a smaller ship and lots more motion. Allure leaves and then harmony which does grease. Not excerpts. The big ships pay royalties and do the action broadway production. Nothing I've seen beats mama mia. Though I'd love jubilee myself. Flying adds stress. Go out of Galveston first time.

I think it's a shame to take it out on the waiter who is just following the rules. But maybe not and they were excellent the whole 10 weeks. Couldnt have been better imo. .. just didnt serve 2 plates at the same time. I dont get why people are taking it out on the waiter.

How do you explain why if carnival misses the same ports their policy is they always refund some small amount for port fees. It's just that rcl has decided not to automatically refund port fees. Nothing to do with how the ports charge rcl. .. or carnival would do it the same way. This is just something rcl decided they can get away with imo so they do. And also if port fees are less after I board every time carnival gives me a little unexpected obc for the overage .. unlike rcl.

Yes the soda or water is up to 17 oz. Lol 500 ml not sure the oz but assume its 17 oz. Carry on only

2 guys at my table tried very hard to get 2 entrees at the same time on radiance I just got off of. They were firmly refused. Neither had any success. One was a pinnacle and he was more upset and waved off the waiter with a flick of his wrist. Must be hard to be a waiter and say no to some. None got 2 dishes together the whole 10 days.

I'd bet there will be a lobster night. The app isnt always accurate until you board.

There are bars they can access. Centrum has a bar, it doesnt close to kids. A couple decks up I seem to remember another bar. There are places they can get soda. Just might have to walk further.

@Ourusualbeachcan say if port fees go down before or after final payment what rcl policy is.
