Anything the US Government does is slow, inefficient, and wasteful.

3 teenagers in one room is totally fine.  They will only be there to sleep and shower. 😀

Why do you think that.

Many people spend time in the room.

He should have no problems.

My kids used it before they were 16

Never any issues.

Why?

I used to check and see how much traffic will be in port.

But in the end I realized it really made zero difference my experience.

People think to many ships will make port/island much too crowded.

But almost everywhere it makes it better.

It is a one week cruise.

You don't have to bring everything...

Every cruise ship walkie talkie conversation ever:

Hello?   Hello?    Are you there?

Hello?   Hello?  Hello?  Hello?

Can you hear me?  Hello?

Hello?

Are you there?

Hello?  Can you hear me?

Are you there? hello?  Hello?  Hello?

Just go find really low number tag on one of the steward's carts in the hall.

Your first mistake is booking it throught the cruiseline.

Find a place on your own and save the headache and money.

I am wondering why anyone would need the cruise directors email address....

What are you going to do with the 21 extra full bottles at the end of the trip?

They have not had "Formal" nights in years...

I really doubt anyone going on a cruise will bring that much money

Which is also an isolated incident.

We always bring around $2000 in small bills.

Nobody is going to take it.

What is the problem with flying with cash??

Try booking through an online TA

Instead of that ridiculous RC website.

There is nothing to really prepare for

It is basically the same as the other cruise lines.

I find it very hard to believe that anyone would sit in a restaurant for two hours before they got any food.  The diner should have spoken to their waiter or management around 90 minutes prior.  That table would have had another reservation waiting for it by then, so someone should have noticed there was an issue.

I agree, I am calling it BS.

I have never had any WIFI on all of my cruises.

However I do carry my device because I take photo's with it.

Ever since the phones started taking much better pictures than my camera.

We are diamond plus with Royal and Elite plus with Celebrity.

I am curious what your current loyalty status has to do with your concern...

She can go in there. 

I have seen kids in the Solarium pool many times.

Just have her act normal.

I am sure they read your review and fixed everything accordingly.

Why would a person who doesn't like Seafood.

Go to a Seafood restaurant?

I don't recall exactly how many shows are offered, but people need to have a reservation and you are only allowed to reserve 1X.

However, you can get in line to go to any show and about 5 minutes before showtime people are allowed in - sometimes there are seats and sometimes not.

No, the music is not live but the singing is.

You can get into any show without reservations.

And you are able get in outside then 5 minutes mark.

There is always plenty of seats available.

Yes, it is live music played.  The band plays off stage.  They show them at the end.

Be careful, 

Mgt does a room check every night to make sure everyone is where they are supposed to be.
