ONECRUISER

Bag/Bags of Linen are always under my Bed during Cruise, been this way since Pre-CV. My Luggage is too thick and does fit anyway, it's the style with spinner wheels sticking out, so it goes in the Closet

No, during CV and startup Cruise Line was doing this long as Symptoms were similar to or were CV.

Agree. Imagine if the cost if was a Hospital ER. My Daughter was Lucky Financially getting sick on 2 Different Cruises during post Covid startup 2021 & 2022. Bad Virus and other one was a Sinus Infection. Each time Quarantined for couple days of Neg CV tests, Initial Infirmary Visits, Meds inc Antibiotic and Daily Cabin Visits by Nurse, was no Charge for anything. Plus Free Room Service, though we Brought her Dinner from Main Dinning after we ate, plus she and her Family was issued 2 days and 3 Days refund from their Cruise even though was just her staying put in the Cabin

Few yrs ago there was list how many Pin's, I'd say it's pushing at least 8-10K by now.

I remember that one, sitting on the Railing, falling over pulling the other with them

True, made Diamond back in the 90's haven't wore a robe yet. Havent had share a Cabin in 22yrs so for me the 340+ Solo Discount guarantees I stay with Royal. With Low to no status on other lines Rare that any could match prices/Discounts I receive

You might be surprised, lot times short showers and when possible Capt will steer around small cells or speedup/slowdown. That said where live now it never snows and we get average 330 days of sunshine. ...Enjoy Your Cruise!

Nice! Hate to waste or throw away anything that is still usable

Funny thing is 4 Royal Ships been on last 10yrs on 1 had the actual Freestyle pop machines, other 3 you had get the cup filled at the Bars

Mean the ones look like get at an amusement park? Seen some those off/on from 2021-last fall.

I miss the old cups from decade ago that held cold and hot drinks, though they held about 12oz instead of 16

Yes, seen many Videos posted River Cruises where the Line has 50 Bikes to use on stops or Bike Excursions

80s was nothing see 50 Passengers carrying on Golf Club. 90's at times see handful to about dozen Bikes brought on some Cruises, last 20yrs, nope!

Over a 6 month period I had 5, 515 and 530 all on same Ship on different Cruises, the 5 and 515 were a B2B

Though really rare even other Cruise Lines have stopped there in the past. Also was few times 3 Ships stopping there on a single day, Their times overlapped and it didnt happen too often

About 8yrs ago when the following years Sailings were being released Royal site listed Suites REALLY cheap, I remember seeing a 2Bed/2BA was cheaper then a Balcony. Bunch people jumped on them, some paid in Full thinking if Company found out they'd let them keep the Cabins at the lower prices. NOPE! They found out and Royal gave everyone a Choice who Booked these Suites, either pay thousands more or cancel Bookings. Was then many realized Royal had people watching Cruise Critic, reading the long thread on the mistake on Suite Prices

Yup and they got some. Goal of his Self Funding is $10K when posted last yr, they received $3671 from total of 51 donors, though only 12 are new donors this yr

Might be too early for your Cruise.

Been long time but saw a couple taken off in handcuffs by Sheriff Deputies, they ran up over $10K in charges and didnt pay, but this was 3 decades ago. Then another couple they owed $900 they couldnt pay and Royal made them sign an IOU to pay within 10days. That one was about 18yrs ago. Neither these were Medical expenses though.

I knew it was 3rd Party decades ago but wasnt sure now. Thanks for info

Was in a bad accident few yrs ago, had 4 Kids in Car with me, not scratch on them, me it was another story. After a yr of treatment inc Physical Therapy, Nerve Burns, ect decided was time to have another Surgery, multilevel C-Spine Fusion. There is less then 3% chance Death or Paralysis and lucky have an Experienced Neurosurgeon with him trying to put my worries at ease. He said, "In 36 years I've never had anyone experience any serious negative issues with this Surgery" ...all I could think of was, May the Odds be Ever in your Favor, statistically he's due. Yes, good to know all the Benefits a Credit Card purchase covers and what Primary Insurance would cover while Traveling. Me, with Auto Insurance always carry Max, 500K/500K/1 Million as always have 1-4 Grand Daughters in Car with me, at times 8 of us.

Agree, Thank You! Was hoping someone was going say this. Many things we took as Kids are not what we should give our Kids or even take now unless we know or Dr Ok's it.

Yes, thank you for pointing that out. Many Family and Friends are Farmers and Hunters.

Nice, was on Grandeur 4 times from 1997-2002 inc my first two 10niters. Grandeur was also last Cruise took with my Wife before she passed away. Beautiful ship, known for all the Sea views with all the Glass. Radiance Class was designed using some of the best from Vision and Voyager Classes. Was on Sovereign Cruise #004, Grandeur #012 and Voyager #008, back when they numbered them for us

Yes, this going back even 5 yrs. With Royal Ships average passenger capacity running 120% guess not in real hurry. What I pay on Radiance Class, same Cabins on similar Vision Class cruises are lot higher cost with less Cabins not already filled. So looks like they are still making $$$
