Royal and pre cruise testing
pyrateslife4me84 replied to Giantfan13's topic in Royal Caribbean International
He was, to me, giving a rather nondescript “soon but not now.” I would not take it literally as “2 months from this moment.” I read it as, “later this year, if conditions allow.” No commitment was made. My real takeaway was, “testing will go away first. Vaccine mandates won’t end any time soon.” -

Exactly. Just get one of those holders that keeps it close to your body and be safe. -
European cruise questions
pyrateslife4me84 replied to suamom's topic in Royal Caribbean International
It is not hard to verify that it must be a passport. They will not accept a US driver license. https://www.army.mil/article/123870/u_s_army_europe_reminds_members_to_carry_passports_for_travel_outside_country_of_assignment -
European cruise questions

In Europe, authorities can demand to see your passport at any time. I suppose you’ve just been lucky. -

Western Med Ports thumbs Up or Down
pyrateslife4me84 replied to BubbaBoat's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Honestly, we are going to Pompeii most of the day. If there is time, we will explore Napoli a bit and look for pizza. If we don’t like it there, back on the ship for pizza and water slides. -

Traveling with Children Covid Change!!!
pyrateslife4me84 replied to JMHappy's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Actually, if you want to be as thorough as you are pretending to be, you do have to read those documents. Otherwise, you aren’t reviewing the data. You’re reading someone’s interpretation of the data. No need to give yourself a pat on the back for that. Anyone can do that. No need for condescension after doing a small amount of research. For the record, I did read all of the data and presented on them to faculty at the college where I work. These documents are not meant for public consumption. People should just trust their doctors. That’s why we have doctors. Every time you get a flu shot, you are getting a vaccine combination that was in development and testing for less than a year. So you really don’t know what you’re talking about. -
Traveling with Children Covid Change!!!
pyrateslife4me84 replied to JMHappy's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Most people don’t actually review the hundreds of pages of data submissions to the CDC. They just take the available vaccine. Who even knows the brand of any vaccine they’ve received prior to Covid? -

Perhaps they just want their child vaccinated? If they plan to get the child vaccinated, why not do it in a way that dramatically reduces the testing requirement? -

Okay, but they aren’t fully vaccinated. So they need the PCR test. That’s how this gets cleared up. They won’t be allowed on board otherwise. -

Most likely, someone noticed this and realized you didn’t fully vaccinate your kids. Unsure of why you only got one dose. Pharmacies, the CDC, and Royal have been very clear that “fully vaccinated” means 14 days after dose 2 for Pfizer and Moderna. -

Promenade Cabins-Pros and Cons
pyrateslife4me84 replied to KATHYMAC68's topic in Royal Caribbean International
They are less claustrophobia-triggering than true interiors but with kids, I’m not a huge fan of balconies. Plus the view is actually pretty cool! And Spacious Promenade View Interiors are enormous! As for privacy…I don’t really care. If someone decides to peep into my window and sees something, that’s on them. Don’t look into someone else’s window. If they have compliments or critiques to share with me on the pool deck, I guess that’s fine. I also like the Central Park View Interiors on Oasis class. Actual light is nice. -
Contact Tracing and RCCL Excursions
pyrateslife4me84 replied to madiaka's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Why pay more money to add the risk of being thrown in the brig? I don’t see the upside. I give the money to RCI and in return, I supposedly don’t get left behind but I’m reading more stories from people getting contact traced than I am hearing about people being left behind on a Viator excursion. -

It just makes me more likely to consider a non-RCI excursion, honestly.
