I like the bed by the balcony as you dont walk into the bed as you enter .

I just logged into to Celebrity for the first time with my RC login . Im Elite status ( match with my Diamond status on RC )

Had an issue several years ago on Oasis . Guy decided to jump off the ship on the last night. Looked a little fishy as his partner had his phone set up to record the whole thing. He jumped off the balcony and landed on top of the life rafts, but it was raining and made the top of the rafts slippery. He ended up dangling on the arm that holds the raft in place before he let go and down he went. Dont think they ever found him. Anyway , we ended up getting into port a few hours late. There were many people on the royal promenade trying to get off . It was a bit of a cluster**** with lots of nervous pax. I had a12 oclock flight so no issue for me. Although this does not happen very often , have a solid plan B if you have an early flight.🙂

You are correct . They want a voucher for a Baileys if you arent within the 5 - 8 pm time frame.

The truth is , if you find ocean view balconies are close in price to the inward facing balconies and you can swing the difference , get the ocean view. No noise and you can keep your curtains open. I tried a boardwalk cabin when Oasis was a new ship for the novelty , but it was one and done. Went back to ocean view after that.

We have sailed the various classes of RC ships and settled on Oasis class for the same reasons posted by other cruisers. We dont even look at other class of ships anymore. ( will try Icon class in the future ) Symphony would be our choice.

I typically pay one week in advance , just in case something goes wrong so i have time to correct it. ( nothing ever went wrong 🙂 )

Ah yes , i recall getting 4 points per night when i booked a crown loft on Allure during that promo for the two of us. The suite was also heavily discounted at the time.

If i may , i would like to hijack this thread to ask you a question, as i know you are an expert in all things RC .🙂 If i were to book two balcony cabins ( the connecting kind ) , one for me and one for my wife, and we go as solo , one person in each of the cabins , i know we get double points for booking solo , but might we get quadruple points ? ( we are both Diamond if that matters ) And one other question, is there group rates for connecting ocean view balcony rooms ? Looking at Symphony . Many thanks in advance .

Or , parents can down grade to a JS and buy the UDP for everybody so that they could dine together at a specialty restaurant every night . Throw in a drink package for everybody too, and have a ball.

I wouldnt find it too much of an inconvenience if i werent allowed into the Crown lounge during happy hour . I only want a couple of expressos during the day and happy hour isnt the time of day that i want one , so no problem for me. I use my diamond drink vouchers at other locations. Unless you use it as a meeting place with others , I dont see the appeal of the lounge now that you have to use your vouchers if you want a drink.

We had 645 MTD on Harmony . We would show up at 6 pm and the concierge would find us a two top table on any of the 3 dining rooms and we we would be seated in minutes , as there were no shows from early fixed dining. There were no lines and as long as you dont mind a different table and waiters it worked well for us .

How much is the charge per person and what are the departure times please ? i was assuming you used it , if not , no worries

I needed tums once. Got them in Cozumel . Paid about 2 bucks more than typical price.

Yep . our cabin is very neat also . We even go as far as pull up the bed covers so it looks partially made. No clothes lying around , and everything put away . You walk by some open doors and it looks like a crime scene . Feel sorry for the stewards having to work around that mess.
