ONECRUISER

True, though I remember thats exactly what I paid in 1988 for a Deck 2 tiny Port Hole Cabin. Did Pay $799 for Owners Suite, total price me Solo but that was right after 9/11. Way inflation has been, Ships usually Sailing well over 100% Capacity I'm happy with what I'm paying now on my Booked Cruises, cheaper or same as Pre-CV, though the Discounts offered really help... Though we'll see in I feel same in few months what next Release brings...

But always posted Upside down... Been collecting Ship Magnets since 80's, I also have Ship Shape $1 and a Tshirt from back then

Good as Cruises last 10yrs for 10-16niters I was on always a Different Menu each nite

Agree, I only know Balcony's also. Booked Panama Canal Fall 2020, 2022, 2023 and 2024. The 2024 were a lot higher day of release then 2023. When 2025 come out bet they will be even Higher yet, getting back to outrageous Pre-CV PC prices

Don't think they do that anymore and do also remember Cart and even Shops selling Flowers inc dozen roses on Royal but that was Decades ago. Back when you could Board a Royal Ship with just clothes and your back and Buy everything you needed on the Ship

Used on my Cruises for over a Decade and never lost one. My Original Set back then was bought on Cruise Critic

Same here, then Penmanship isn't even taught in any of my Grand Daughters Schools. A dying Art...

Was enforced on my last Miami Cruise also, so does happen at times they group at least the first passengers arriving. Seen this at Tampa, though was last Fall on a Ship on day of Repo arrival.

Yes, they did!

But don't forget Double Points last yr. I did just 8 Cruises and and got 216 points myself

True, surprised when they do pop up. Most time have it was on Cruise with bunch open Cabins and/or with off peak dates.

Thanks. Forgot Royal had Changed that

Agree, done this couple times. Had tell my Daughter I Booked her on Cruise with me and that she wasn't going

At time all McDonald's coffee was served at that Temp, 20 degrees warmer then say Burger King was. Micky D's lost case but In end final amount was settled out of Court

Happens, I've had 3 Sold out Cruises just in last 8 months. At times a Cabin will showup when someone cancels lasting for few days then Sold out again

Nope, Wasn't in Kids play area. He stuck his head out the Window for 20 seconds, then he lifts and holds her out Window for 30 seconds before dropping her. There was no Taping on Window.

I remember walking into a Port for a Cruise and get or pay for upgrade cheap! One I did had a OV and got a Jr Suite for $50. This back when Cruises were more expensive they are today

Agree! Enjoyed this starting on our Honeymoon in 1988. After our 2nd Dining ending about 10:30pm we'd run back to Cabin to PU our Mints and see what was on the Cruise Compass for following day, after just making it to the 10:45pm second show. Following the show we'd run up to the Midnight Buffet. Doing longer Cruises where almost half the nites there is no show or combined one that takes place between early/late meals.

Shoot before 5yrs ago Lot of my Booked Cruise would have just came out(an example)in May/June 2023 for my Cruises in Oct-Nov 2024. Now these same Cruises are out 560 days and more

Hitting Golf Balls and Skeet Shooting off Open Deck. Bring back the Trays for Windjammer. Turn down service, I want my dang pillow mint back!

True! Though even Tampa have left one Pier returning to another multiple times. Was on B4B last Fall standing on my Balcony watching hundreds passengers dragging bags across 2 parking lots. We had late arrival one week where they made all new passengers wait outside the Fence on Sidewalk. Knock on wood, after getting to Port never had wait more then 30min to Board a Ship

Yet as Firm as they are were REALLY Firm few yrs ago. I'm lucky though, could sleep on the Cabin Bed, Couch or Floor and get good nites sleep

Done this at least 6 times out of Port Everglades Royal had us leave from one Pier come into another. Was doing it at least once a yr pre-CV. The one time we drove down they ran Buses and Shuttles to Parking Ramp, but most times Pier to Pier was walking distance of about 5-10 min walk

Use the tough plastic sleeves attached to our Luggage, also have always carried on changes of clothes, on Ship and Airline, just in case. Then traveling with someone Wife, Kid, would split clothes up, half in each bag. Started this when one our Bags was flown to different State, arriving 24hrs later to our Port Hotel. Finally, last 20yrs have arrived at Port 2 days early. Seen too many miss Ship due to Weather, Flights Delayed/Canceled, or car issues. Fly 12-14 times a year and see this happen more last yr then have in my 40yrs of traveling

Skill of Capt, Crew, Pilot......and sometimes not
