ONECRUISER

Agree, doesn't happen from Ships Water

Celebrity and even 1-2 other lines have stopped at Royal Private Islands in the past

Weather Warnings there had ended for a while before Ship sailed. Not knowing what they did at time sometimes popup events are unavoidable.

Agree, having a Chief Meteorologist same situation would have happened.

Muster after 12:15am and at 3:10am MSC finally leaving

Well if leaving after midnight assume its am as he said. Ship, along with Carnival's are still sitting there. Me, I'd already be in bed after that long of a day. Have set an alarm I guess

Well 11:20pm and first Ship(NCL) is pulling out. What a long day

Still there, watching live cam. Carnival didnt park until after 5pm EST and at that time had hundreds(1000's?) on her Balconies so no Cleaning even started yet

Deal when offered(not short Cruises) $35 small bag, no reg clothes, only sox, undies, T-shirts, swimsuits, PJ's, Gym Clothes. No Pants, Button up shirts, ect. Seen people Billed separate item full price if an item not authorized. Also washed in Hot with other peoples clothes in separate mess bags(Some have issue with that) also fading can happened & gotten few T-shirts back with pin holes

Agree. Doubt get bill after leaving Ship. Our experiences, Sick Calls since CV, all were Colds with Neg CV Testing my Family & Friends recieved no Bill. A Sprain falling on Ice, was no Bill.

Still a longer Day for many. Carnival Ship is just turning around in Basin. See hundreds on their Balcony's, at least they got stay in Cabin's but all will need be cleaned before new Passengers Board

This was 4 Decades ago when they and every Hotel changed Sheets, Towels Daily. As said they had to strip the Beds Daily to convert them back to Couches. Only reason Royal started their Environmental programs was not that they cared. Originally they were busted for Illegally dumping Photo Chemicals doing this with hidden pipes leading direct to the Ocean. They were caught, Twice! That and not replacing sheets/Towels saves them money with a touch of publicity. That said yes I might use a Towel second time onboard but never a washcloth ever, yuck!

Yup, have Royals going back to the paper laminated ones

Couple showers a day, go to meal go to the Movie Theater he'd have it cleaned and wiped. Banana peal in Trash, gone, and Fruit Basket(that all Cabins had) restocked. Every time you return it's spotless. Wash cloth, towel, hand towel, used once got new one. Bed made, turn down service. Wasn't kidding in/out Cabin 10 times a day, he'd been in it. Interesting back then all Room Attendants and Waiters all Men, no Women doing these jobs

Shoot I remember when they'd clean and pickup my cabin 8-10 times a day. Anytime I'd leave my Cabin he was in there. Our attendant also had lot more work to do back then, all for $1 per person, per day. Ship had 2 Couches each on a different wall that Attendant would have to move together put sheets, blanket, pillows on. Then in am disassemble putting all away until that nite

Wow, yeah that's not "Cool" Haven't done too many cold environment Cruises except dozen of the annual Oct Boston-Florida Repo's. My Sailings in Carib some people prefer the Solarium Roof shut to get a little relief from Hot/Humid days

Yeah, last 20yrs at start of Cruise I always take picture my Cruise Card and Cruise Paperwork inc Itinerary. Only way can remember where pictures were taken.

True, my first emails saved are from same year I joined AOL Cruise Critic, 1997. Of course back then it took about 9 min to download one picture

Back when they did the Point Conversion they were missing my 1980's Cruises. Fortunately I save all my Cruises paperwork and Cruise Cards. Was able give them info from my Booking, Numbers/Dates and got the Credit in couple days... Good Luck to you!

Seen similar happen at least 2 times myself. The little tables Royal use to have on Pool Decks would really get some distance. Most time Crew is quick have Chairs all tied down but not always

What do you mean, Solarium Roof? Almost every sailing on Radiance Class I've see the Roof open at least once, inc 8 out of 9 Cruises in last yr

Been couple threads on this. Those that don't know requests by email are supposed be sent only 2-3wks from Sailing. Unfortunately this is now typical response now, guess better to call for special requests

Agree, no set time. Seen same myself where one well over 1 yr available to Book and one at 6 Months from Sailing and not all online/on app options available

Wasn't 2 when my Sister was newborn. Mom would get call I was 2 houses down at my Aunts. Or from corner store 2 blocks away at the Grocery Store where I'd parked my Trike at the loading docks with the trucks and was in store pushing around one the small kid carts. Was tied to a tree with a 6ft leash and at times to my Bed. Stuff that wouldn't fly now

Same here, like plan and Control all. Except for the same Royal PVP I had 2015-2018 haven't used a TA in 25yrs
