I only recently found out about MyVegas.  When I initially found out about it, it seemed that even though the T&C stated that the OBC could only be used on cruised booked within 30 days, many people had been successful redeeming in on cruises that had been booked +30 days.  Has anyone been able to apply the OBC to a cruise that you had booked +30 days ago?

My cruise in December says "unvaccinated" next to both of our names and we did NOT file an exemption request.

Now I'm wondering if I should call and have our status added for our November cruise.

It just seems weird for a grown adult to not even try it, especially if it is free and/or a taste off someone else's plate.

It also just seems weird for another grown adult to care what another grown adult chooses to eat or not eat.

Eureka! It worked. I had been trying to do it from my MacBook, but of course when I pulled up the set sail on my iPhone there was the "add to your apple wallet" button.  Many thanks for yours and everyones help.

Well, don't leave us hanging!!  Do you have an assigned cabin??

They have never asked about vaccination status during the booking process - only during the check in process.

We are cruising this November. I called LAST November about a price reduction and the agent did ask about our vax status and told me he would have to cancel my reservation because we weren’t vaxxed. I had to state several times that we weren’t  cruising for another year!  Like anything with Royal reps, you never know what you may get.

I just became aware of the Carnival/Bahamas "exception" (we have a sailing 9/1/22 - though it's just Key West and Cozumel). So, am I correct in that Royal does not share that requirement?

 

10 days until we sail (Indy), and just wanted to make extra sure!

None of us really know right now.  More information about the updated protocols is going to be sent out to booked guests sometime this week.  Until that happens, it's all just conjecture and how each person chooses to interpret what HAS been released by RC.  I am hoping that "no testing for less than 6 nights" means just that, but there is always fine print.  And we haven't been given the fine print, YET.  (I'm personally going crazy waiting for it even though we don't cruise until November!!😂)

So far, the best pizza I've had on a ship was on the Carnival Valor.   I have seen Sorrentos offer a white pizza occasionally.  🙂

 

I LOVED the quattro formaggi on the Carnival Valor and ate so much of it.  It alone is almost enough to make me want to book a cruise on Valor again.

Hi I’m Gail and I’m a pizzaholic.  Can’t think of any I’ve ever flat out turned down.  It’s a disease, don’t judge. 😄😄

Same!!  I will eat pizza anytime, anywhere!

I cant' remember the last time I had a bad slice of pizza.

 

It's nice to not be a picky eater. 😉

I am a VERY picky eater, except when it comes to pizza.  Give me a pizza from anywhere and I'm happy.  I'm even good with the $1.25 Totino's pizzas!

They probably have someone from the company reading this thread right now making note of all the things that posters in here are saying that they never thought of themselves before, like the B2B2B2B short cruisers not needing to test.

Oh, they thought of it.  They just didn't think any of us would! 😂

Just now, HicksRA said:

Starting Aug. 8, testing will be required for unvaccinated guests on all voyages and for vaccinated guests only on voyages that are six nights or longer. "
 

Taking this statement literally, does this mean that unvaccinated adults will be eligible to cruise??  

I've wondered about that, too.  And their statement says something about "maintaining a percentage of vaccinated guests."  Does that mean they are going to allow more unvaccinated on the ships?

Soooo, I could book a 3-day/4-day back to back and I won't have to test.  But if I book a 7-day, I have to test.  Yep, that makes perfect sense.

Wish I could get a wave going!

When you say 'Cruise Planner' you mean online in ur account not the Ap correct?

This is what it says online right now:

What's Included
Unlimited visits to speciality dining restaurants every night of your sailing and lunch on sea days.
For restaurants with a la carte pricing, you'll receive a $20 food credit
For ships with these venues, Teppanyaki/Izumi Hibachi is included, with a $10 surcharge, Chef's Table is included, with a $49.99 surcharge, and Dadong is included, with a $35 surcharge. These will be charged once onboard.

Your the first person to say the $35 is still in the Planner (online) so let me know?

That was copy/pasted directly from the website in my Cruise Planner where I purchased the UDP.  🤷‍♀️

I have the UDP booked for Oasis in November.  This is currently what my Cruise Planner shows. 

What's Included

• Unlimited visits to speciality dining restaurants every night of your sailing and lunch on sea days.
• For restaurants with a la carte pricing, you’ll receive a $35 food credit, with the exception of Port Side BBQ and Playmakers which will be $20.
• For ships with these venues, Teppanyaki/Izumi Hibachi is included, with a $10 surcharge, Chef's Table is included, with a $49.99 surcharge, and Dadong is included, with a $35 surcharge. These will be charged once onboard.

I tried that year or two ago and it never worked for me either.  And I added a LOT of them

I have added a TON.  And then I have worried that they base your future offers on what you have added! 😂

Nothing on my Delta AMEX.

Nothing on mine, either.  I have been trying the add offers to my card to get new ones trick for about a week and still nothing.  😒

Does anyone know what is normally the latest reservation you can book at the specialty restaurants?  For example, it's showing that most of them close at 9:30 for our November Oasis sailing.  What would be the latest time we can book?  8?  9?

So glad to see this response since we have that cabin booked on Oasis this November!!

Are you sure they said day bed and not the South Beach cabana? There have been serval reports on here that the SB day beds are gone. One poster said they had rented one and once on board they told them they were moved to Chill Island.

She did almost a full 360 so you could see the actual bed in the video.  *shrug*

Someone in a Royal Caribbean Cruises group on that social network that I don't think we can name, posted a video on April 6th from their South Beach Daybed.  For what it's worth, I have a South Beach Daybed reserved for November and they are still for sell on the cruise planner.  I also have Beach Club booked because I'm not sure which one I want for sure yet.  You could definitely see the over the water cabanas to the left so I was pretty sure they were actually at South Beach (although, I have never actually been to Cococay myself.)

Call RCCL and ask for a price adjustment.  They will do it easy-peasy.  

I still can't access Cruise Planner.......

We will be in St Thomas on a Thursday in Nov 2022.  We had the option of booking the Sea Trek Dive through Royal at Coral World, but if you go to Coral World's actual website, they say they are closed on Thursdays.  Are they really CLOSED or just "closed" to non-cruise passengers?  Anyone have any insights?  

Can you apply the gift cards at the kiosks or do you have to go to Guest Services?
