We are staying at St Pete Beach after our cruise on the Brilliance in November. I think we will rent a car.
Anyone know the closest car rental from the port??
-
That should solve the problem with any fees from the ship since from what I heard they won't work at all on a ship.
Please expain?? Can it be used with a ship package? Iphone to iphone?
We are considering changing to Cricket and would like to know if it will limit us

Sam. Prayers and sympathy to you and your brothers family.
Thankfully Royal is helping in whatever way they can.

I figure they would need about 60 hours steaming time from whenever they left San Juan to make it back to Port C. I think if they could make it back on Monday it would late in the PM.
Which really upsets me more. Because that schedule of stopping at San Juan today. St Maarten tommorow and then back to San Juan Saturday has been posted all week. And they just figure out TODAY that they can't make it back in time to sail Monday.
Amazing!!! Smh

Well our TA just spoke with royal insurance. Note to self. GET PRIVATE INSIRANCE.
Royals insurance agent. "Doesn't know" if the policy will cover us to stay mindaynniggt before the cruise. She suggested to keep receipts and TRY to turn them in. That's fine. But some people work for their money and need to know ahead.
And then if we do go and they canc. Then what????

Just got text and email. 9/18 Majesty sailing is shortened from 4 day to a 3 day so they can continue humanitarian relief.
So just wonder if we will even go??? What difference does a day make.??? Majesty is in San Juan today. Press release from port st Maarten says she will stop there from 8-5 tomorrow and transport people
From there to San Juan. Assuming arriving there Saturday morning. Wouldn't the majesty be able to make it back to Port Canaveral from Saturday night till Monday morning????
Or are they doing more runs??
Our TA is checking into everything for us. We get 25% cruise fare in refundable OBC and 25% FCC
We have insurance thru royal. Checking on that also. Anyone know if it will pay for a hotel on Monday night??? Do we book something?? And then they canc us altogether???
While I commend royal for helping all those in need. It is a pain trying to figure all this out. And don't understand why it took so long to figure it out.

Another tropical storm has formed off of Africa.
WHAT????? please give details. link
-
This is so awesome.
Is there anyone on cruise critic that is on the Majesty?? Not sure what sailing of people are even on?? Sept 4th sailing??
We are suppose to be on the 18th sailing, wonder if we will go?? Reports says it will be back that day. Guess we wait and see

Can anyone get the bahamas webcam to come up??
Was on earlier this morning and now I cant get it to work?? my computer or did it go down??
Think it looked like bahamas was spared "the worst"

I'm really concerned about the Keys. There's no elevation there, so storm surge is their biggest threat. Most of the newer houses were built to withstand 180 mph winds, but no one wants them to be tested. Every single one of my close friends down there have evacuated.
Ok. This is maybe a dumb question. (But then I'm from Ohio and never experienced a hurricane). So are there lots of people that would actually not evacuate the Keys?? I can't imagine being stranded there in case something happens to US1
-
Royal Caribbean is offering complimentary rooms onboard the Enchantment Of The Seas to any of its South Florida employees who need a safe place during the storm. Employees may request up to two staterooms (eight passengers total).
So any clue where that ship will go?? Will they stay in port with the employees?? Or take off away from the storm??

Watching this thread
We sailed 9/18 in the majesty
I know Irma should be past. But I thought I saw a post about more storms behind her
I'm not good at reading those weather maps. Can someone tell me what to watch for???
-
EB. I have been off these boards for awhile but logged in to check hurricane cruises
Been following your story from the beginning and so glad you are getting everything refunded.
Royal did really drop the ball (and smash it) here
But my one questions I have not see you answer here. Are you trying to schedule something else the next couple of days and will you get to enjoy a few days away with your lovely bride to celebrate your anniversary???
Wishing you many more happy years regardless:hearteyes:

Anyone ever transfer from Port Canaveral to Sanford airport??
Are there transfer companies that service Sanford airport, or am I better off doing a Uber??
Also, what type of time would you allow??
I can get a extremely cheap flight into my local airport for the way home after my cruise.
The flight is at 12:40, which means I would like to be at the airport by 10:30. would this be a problem if I did a self walk off??
(PS. Yes I've flown allegiant before, so I don't need opinions on how bad of airline they are)

We've sailed 2 Royal ships--the Indy and the Oasis--and we were able to buy "buckets" of beer (not really buckets, but an insulated cooler). My hubby would buy it, so he could bring some beer back to cabin. It was a cheaper alternative to a drink package, as I don't drink enough to warrant the cost of a package, and he only drinks beer.They did have the coolers of beer 2 weeks ago. I didn't pay attention to pricing though because we had the drink package.
Thanks
So wonder if we need to bring our old cooler?? That was the promotion at the time. And I know for awhile you had to bring te cooler back to get the discounted price.
-
Has anyone seen a special on "buckets of beer" or the beer cooler on the Indy???
We bought a beer cooler several years back on the Liberty. With the purchase of the cooler, you got like 7 beer for the price of 6. Any clue if they still honor this??? Don't have room to pack it if it is no longer honored. We leave next thursday!!
-
Have a question for you. I know you posted at the beginning that you didn't get the alcohol package. But wondered if you saw or heard of anyone buying a "bucket or cooler" of beers??
Hubby is a beer drinker and the alcohol package is to expensive since he doesn't drink a lot. However several years back we bought a beer cooler. Got the cooler to keep and refills came out to Getting one beer free
Debating if we want to pack it. Not sure if they will still honor them.

We are currently on the independence and it was announced last night due to an emergency we would be returning to Miami. I just woke up, at 4:00 a.m. and we are docked in somewhere, I'll assume Miami. Anyone know what's going on our where our stops will be?
Junglecat. Could you check something for me while on board??
We sail next wednesday and are still debating if we want the alcohol package. My hubby is mostly a beer drinker and since they now only have one package we are not sure it will be worth it.
Can you asked if they honor the beer coolers?? Bought one a couple years back on the Liberty. Don't want to take up the room to pack it, if they don't honor it. Or is there a bucket of beer special??
Thanks in advance.

Was hoping the OP had been back to report that she was on board and all ok.
-
Yes, exactly what would have happened. Unfortunately for all involved, I'm very very persistent. I might be a very busy working mom but I still have time to email and call people every single day until they fix things :D
So glad you got things resolved So did the credit show on your card already??
Cupcakes, that is a slap in the face. Glad you ended up with $250.
Hope you can relax and enjoy the couple of days ahead before you leave.
And also hope you will come back here after and let us know that you have blasted the TA. She deserves it.
Have a wonderful cruise.
-
Been following this thread for quite awhile. Still can't believe you are going thru this.
Just curious if you have posted to Royal Caribbean's page on social media. Would love to see it on their, especially if you TA is on the site also. Would be nice for others to "see" what she is posting
-
This is when private messaging would be helpful.
So OP, have you posted anything on her fb page?? Or any of the royal fb pages??
Assuming you are dealing with your son. We are all hoping for just a sprain. You don't need any added stress
-
Have followed along with this the last couple of days
Who/what is this Elliot?? And will we be able to follow along with what he does to help the OP
Hope you enjoyed your birthday weekend and please keep us posted

OK, we have the Rodeway for a one night stay before our cruise.
Is this area safe to walk in? In the daylight??
We don't get in till late the night before. But would like to get up and walk and get some drinks and snacks. We are normally walkers, so a 1-2 mile walk is no problem. As long as its safe??
Want to go East, so it looks like it would go under/over 95. Do able??
Tampa cruise port to Treasure Island Transportation
in Florida Departures
Posted
I checked uber. For us, port of Tampa to St. Pete Tradewinds would be $39 (for 4) $50 for 6. I guess that would be an option for you if you didnt want a vehicle the whole time. Or I know some hotels will help with transportation
