Awesome! Thanks, Ken!

How do you find out how many ships are in a port on any particular day?

Thank you for your response :)

.

Just remember that any non RCI specific thread like this will be moved.

Then just add Royal Caribbean to your post :D:D "When I am getting ready for a RC cruise......."

How late does Johnny's serve b'fast? My DH is very difficult to get moving in the AM :eek:

Which Instagram account?

American Express and one Visa card. That's all I carry.

Thought you needed to take your passport with you when you go off ship?

QUOTE=matj2000;51511511]It is probably almost exactly the same.

Considering it was just moved 3 days ago.

I doubt they have changed menus and got new beds just because they changed home port....

Love this!

Well, EXCUSE ME for just asking..... you never know what may change. Sorry I have a job, and can't live on here to constantly read every little thing. You know, you don't HAVE to comment if you have nothing to contribute. :confused: :confused: :confused:

I'm REALLY tempted to switch to a Carnival Vista sailing out of Miami. Its 8 days for similar price. Grand turk, Dominican, Bonaire, and Aruba. Thanks for the info everyone! I've just always been loyal to Royal so its a tough call!

If you want to go to Grand Turk, then just go to Grand Turk! It is beautiful!

Hoping someone posts a review of Oasis about her new home port and the Eastern Caribbean routes (ST, SM, Nassau). Menus, beds, all the usual things people are complaining about, has anything changed or improved? Thanks to anyone that does! :)

Ok, thanks [emoji4]. I might look into it!

Someone is scoping this morning on Harmony an intro to scuba diving in the pool. I wonder if Oasis OTS offers this?? I've always wanted to try it, but didn't want to go all in on a course.

Sorry to hear that its gone down hill...... we got married in 2007. We were on Freedom and got married on the beach in St. Thomas. Didn't have any issues and it was perfect! I hope you have everything go smoothly! Best Wishes!

Is it only on Harmony?

Who else is currently Periscoping (if that is a word LOL). I only have Ron Hiller.

Hoping alot of the staff changes when it moves to PC. I've seen a lot of people on here fussing about how unfriendly and unhelpful the staff is on Oasis. Hopefully, its just more of isolated incidents than the norm...

Following ;)

Which is better (typically, in your opinion) as far as motion?

Thank you to all who respond :)

Hello! My husband and I are cruising this weekend (EEE!!!) and I'm finalizing my packing list and will be running out for last minute things this week some time. What are your favorite packing tips and tricks that you wouldn't sail without? This is our 2nd cruise and the two tips we took on last year's cruise was packing an over-the-door shoe holder for the back of the bathroom door to hold all of our toiletries and whatnot and then packing some clothesline and clothes pins to string up on the balcony to dry swimsuits.

 

We do plan to TRY packing more light this time and taking advantage of the laundry service mid-cruise. We enjoyed the discount day they did last year and thought we could have packed much less if we'd known/planned for that.

 

We also grossly underestimated the amount of sunscreen in those little travel sized sunscreen bottles and had to purchase more from the ship's store. ($$) So we'll be bringing more sunscreen this time around (and bug spray!).

 

I'd love to hear your tips/tricks for packing! Thanks so much! :)

Regarding the bug spray, one person suggested using the wipes! I didn't know they had bug spray wipes! So I already picked up some of those for when we go in December.

Nope, and the stuff served is not fresh brewed. Made from a concentrate.

Ewww......

Go Falcons!!! Rise up!!!

We are taking the Oasis out of PC on December 23rd - can't wait!!

 

So any information about Port Canaveral is welcome. We are flying into Orlando on December 22nd, renting a car, and staying the night near the airport. Then we'll drive to the port on the 23rd.

 

Our rental is through Avis.

I'm guessing they are turning in the car to Avis in Port Canaveral? Not parking it there for a week. We are doing the same thing with Avis. Flying to MCO Sat afternoon, pick up a car and we are staying in Melbourne for the night on the beach. It is about 25 mins south of PC. We will drop off the car at AVis in the AM and catch their shuttle to the port. It turned out cheaper to rent the car than to use a shuttle service and we have freedom to drive around.

As most here have stated, I just don't get all the complaints. Nothing is ever perfect. I like what the one person said, Bad day on a cruise is better than a Good day at work (well, I guess unless you are retired, which it appears most of the people on here apparently on, going on 15 cruises a year!) LOL

Just sit back and enjoy the ride!

.

Is anyone going to Periscope? I'm sure someone will be crazy enough to do it!! :eek::eek:

Now they're thinking Matthew is going to move east, then south and loop around again..... this bugger isn't going away any time soon..... but a lot can change, so hoping he heads east and keeps going!!
