  1. The big thing for the key is wifi included daily. The lunch usually at chops when boarding is nice and they take care of your suitcases. I wouldn't book just for priority. .. but then I love my wifi.
  2. I dont think you can change the day of your reservation just by clicking on the calendar. I could be wrong but that is what I read. Have to wait until you are onboard to change. Cancel yes, move to another date no. Boarding at 12:30 should be ok for 1:30 lunch, assuming nothing unusual.
  3. It varys. I have dec 13 and dec 21 booked on adventure and dec 13 everything is available to bok. Dec 21 excursions just came up within the past couple of weeks but no dining. Xmas holiday cruise I suspect might be why no dining but who can say for sure. But i been booking dec 2024 already for a while. Not the next leg. Rcl IT is fickle. Cant book anything feb or April 2025.
  4. Go into "orders" and click cancel. Refund process starts. Rebuy right away. Dont have to wait for a refund.
  5. Ive also read if you dont gamble at least 50% of the money, it only works once. 2nd cash out blocked. Idk from experience though.
  6. I think it could also be so you can cancel and rebook yourself without calling. They dont want people calling just to refund $1 or more. .. I rebooked lunches I booked during pasta day, down $1 each date, multiple dates. I used obc on all purchases so no difference in waiting for a refund.
  7. I was booking far out dec 2024. You wouldnt think big demand. 3 tours of nassau all showed 30% off. First I picked by land and sea, clicked, price went to 20% off. Clicked on the cheapest. Price also went to 20% off. Clicked on the in between price stayed 30% off. Booked. It turned out to be the most comprehensive anyway, but no boat ride. Later I saw the other 2 showing 30% off again. I booked nov 26 excursion at 30% off, then refreshed and price is now 25% off. Another for next may was 25%, I wanted so booked at 25% off. I booked a whole page of confirmation emails, and 2 excursions paid for together. Oops. If I wanted to cancel 1 of the 2 can I just cancel 1? I was on a lunch and excursion booking spree. I love black friday sales. Been waiting to pounce on excursions.
  8. I've personally never seen any obc post and then go away. Possibly early booking bonus? I get $50 obc for that.
  9. First he offered to move the prebooked to another night. I had to say 4 times, no I dont want to just move it. Finally he cancelled it, but I had to push. He moved the prebooked and charged me full price. Booked me night 1 and night 4. Someone came along and moved my 5 pm night 4 to night 2 without telling me. Saw it late Monday and immediately set out to get it changed., So on Saturday they set me up for the following week, night 1 and night 2. I cancelled the prebooked myself week 2. Got the bill night 1 week 2, and it included tax. We hadnt reached international water yet, so tax added. I said something and we agreed he would rerun that tab and add $10 to tip which I said I'd rather give a extra tip than pay texas taxes. So they added 18% and i tipped a extra $10. Both nights. Idk. Probably under tipped night 2. I wasnt feeling that well by then, not their fault. Didnt eat much and left. Boarding harmony. Cant go any worse.
  10. I have a question. Is it true that you can only status match once with celebrity. I see the OP says she talked to celebrity and as long as she gets in more pts before the first time she sails celebrity they will status match her to the new higher level. What if for whatever reason she got there later. After she cruised on celebrity. Is status match only allowed once?
  11. And imo choose sooner rather than later as at these prices times are booking up. I wanted Jamie's for dec 3 and one time left for day 3 and a few times for boarding day 1 left. I'll be b3b and have a b2b lunch day 1 and day 3 is cheers with a officer which I'm not big on but ..cant see paying for a lunch on days it conflicts with another free lunch. I gave up. Click on reservations, then names, then the days show, click on a individual day to see what if any times left .. you can just go look, dont pay.
  12. I didnt hear much last time on oasis but have heard complaints on another ship from a couple of cabins under the solarium. Tile floor was noisy above them. It's not great imo but if it's all that's left, keep a eye for cabins opening and try to move. I was on deck 10 and with a group so not aware of anyone under solarium I knew but I wouldnt pick there on purpose.
  13. Lunch at the italian place on mariner, Jamie's was also 12.99 .. booked! Maybe twice. Lol. Awesome price and I dont eat italian. I'll find something to eat at that price. Nice change.
  14. They may not allow the soda pkg. Let us know. The refreshment pkg is not the soda pkg. Its mocktails, coffee and all the other stuff, just no alcohol.
  15. Every date, various ships I have different lunches all at 40% off .. though some dates booked up. Are you sure you scrolled to the bottom?
  16. I've wanted to do twister, ever since carnival bought it but now rcl offers it with a beach break. Lol I dont own a bathing suit, but signed up for it, though it's not on cozumel,,but that stop. Doing that may 6 on mariner. 25% off .. missed the 30% off. I really just wanted twister lol. The bees are combined with chocolate and tequila tasting I'm good with. I'm a kid at heart. Doesnt actually say where we go to see these bees. Its booked nov 26, so very soon. I bet your grands would like it except for the tequila. Idk. Something new. Take a part in a Tequila tasting and learn about the making of this traditional Mexican beverage. Head towards the Mayan Bee Sanctuary and discover the importance the sacred stingless Melipona Bees had in the Mayan culture. Open your eyes to a new landscape surrounded by lush vegetation and a small cenote as the bees interact in their natural space. Not only are Melipona bees essential for the pollination of crops and environmental balance but also key to Mayan traditions and beliefs. Learn about the benefits and properties of the bee’s marvelous golden liquid in its different presentations as you enjoy a small tasting. Duration 4hr
  17. First I've heard of it being a problem OP. Maybe when someone posts they actually couldn't do it then we will know. Maybe there is a difference between them saying it cant be cashed out and doing it. ..havent done it myself lately. I seem to be able to spend obc.
  18. Cruises have not gone on any particular sale for these sales, just planner items.
  19. Personally I love the free wifi. You can use your free day, then your wife can use hers later in the trip. Free specialty coffee in the lounge and their breakfast spread is also nice.
  20. Sorry to hijack... you asked me if I'd seen all of cozumel .. I thought I had. Booked a excursion last night that goes to a bee colony. Bees are stingerless... surprised it's on cozumel.
  21. I think I read one post excluded wonderland.. not sure .. another ship. Yes I agree the exclusions vary by ship.
  22. I board early and havent had a problem with reservations. People who wait might have issues. I've been able to get early times when I booked. B2b in fact izumi booked bogo for the next leg on sat night before we got off sunday. I havent seen it mentioned you can book early on b2b.
  23. Agree with mike. They cant tell who is sleeping in which cabin when it comes to who is using the internet. If you give out your log in to them they can use it anywhere on the ship.
  24. Ok I was confused since above you mentioned 2 pts per night, not 3 pts .. thought he was booked. Have to be booked solo is all I meant to get the extra solo loyalty pt.
  25. I was on allure late sept when the memo went out to do it day 1 and day 2. They moved my 2nd night to night 2 without notice. I'm solo so do night 1 and night 2 if that's what it takes. Pay first night and 2nd night free, so do cheaper restaurant first. Mike mentioned booking ahead. Allure would not use pre booked lower price. They charged the full price for night 1. 2nd night is free.
