terrific. I do know that some RCCL European cruises with older ships have a lower capacity as well. But any RCCL popular ship/itinerary will be packed. enjoy

Pricing is CRAZY. Royal inflates a price and then makes up a sale! I don't purchase the drink package and don't pay much attention to the pricing but the prices showing on this thread are HIGH. RCCL extra pricing is ridiculous. We just paid over $80 pp to use our BOGO at chops. Don't think we'll do that again. Coco Beach club is well over $225 PER PERSON for the day. Cabanas are $3,500 for the day. My weeklong cruise for 2 in a balcony cabin was less than that! M

So I guess no RCCL cruises for you. Many ships are at or near full capacity. Full capacity for our recent Harmony cruise ( based in double capacity which is how they count) is 5400. We had around 5200. Close to "full capacity" and just about the same as pre covid. The days of 30% capacity are long gone. We do seem to feel the large crowds a bit more because the ships are short staffed and have a bit less entertainment . Longer lines for dining, an fewer entertainment options, so overcrowding to see an available show. M

No, except to say, later than I stay up! Folks are entering as I am going up to my cabin. M

Over $500 for 2 for most of or upcoming cruises! No thank you. We enjoyed our day this past spring, but NO WAY would it be worth over $500 to us. The lunch was OK, we did like the fish, but honestly the bento boxes were not much different that what we get in the MDR or around the ship. We left most of it. Perhaps I am not giving it a fair assessment because we cruise RCCL often and have had the opportunity to have many of the food offerings. I did like the that Coco Cuvee drink. Many who I speak with tell me they like going to an "exclusive" beach. I guess that is what RCCL is selling. We often go to beach clubs (resorts) on various islands with limited occupancy, but with good food as well as open bar for far less than $500 for the day. I hope those who go, enjoy their day . M

Blaze night club on deck 4. Also there is generally a band in Dazzles on deck 8 but that is often an older crowd. M

We can say, "This Saturday!" M
