ONECRUISER

For Dinner and after for others. Been on 8 Halloween Cruises myself

Just used a Free Govt Home Test yesterday and my Daughter taking a picture of me holding it showing Negative. No issues or Questions with Boarding today on my 13n Panama Canal.

I've been to at least 3(might b 4) of them on Royal last 22yrs, that I know of. One last times I came in Port Everglades Pre-CV there was 3 Royal Ships there that day in 2019 or 18. One at 18, one parallel on outside at 25 and third was 90 degrees one next to 18(#19 I think). Just interesting leave from 18, came back we were not. Didn't bother me as non-driver.

Haven't Parked at this Port in 20+ yrs, Flown in since. Funny thing is 1/4 the yrs Cruising out Port Everglades on Royal we left and returned to a totally Different Pier, this on non-Oasis Class of course

As said watch above thread, it will let you know when Dates are released. Release is usually spread out between Nov-April

Until this yr have only done longer 10+ niters on Radiance Class inc Dozens on Serenade. At most we had 1750-2000 passengers never once remember hitting 100% Capacity let alone the 108%+ average Royal Ships were Pre-CV. Many Solo travelers like myself, few Families and about 50 Kids(usually less). Never once had issue finding a Seat in Theater or WJ, exception is of course Centrum and the tiny Movie Theaters where miss the 2 larger ones Sovereign was built with

Normally not an issue

As said no Luggage valet available yet, if option to check Bags at Curb so you dont have go threw Check in Line. Now if Date was 2 wks earlier or later possible issues having done dozen Cruises getting off right after Thanksgiving and 22-23 DEC where line was out the door at FLL several times

True. Pre-CV Cruises on Serenade and Brilliance I've done were all 10-16 niters and Repo's where 2-3 Lounges, inc Safari, were usually used for Diamond overflow. Diamond then used only by Diamond+. Not many other areas left for non-Upper Tier Members except Centrum, which wasn't originally used as much until they added the no longer done aerial shows.

Yes, done 8 Repo longer Cruises on Radiance Class over Halloween and even though 50 or less kids at least 1/3 Adults dressed up and was really big deal

Added Restaurants choices was one I remember. Was listed on a CC Thread but really old ones are not available anymore

Yes, Agree. Radiance Class was designed to combine the best of Vision and Voyager Class's

Agree, last time I did later Flight at FLL was 5 or 6hrs for First Class, only 3hrs for Main Cabin

Slightly different weather but I was in Alabama almost 3 Decades ago when the Storm of the Century hit(Snow Storm/Blizzard)

My Son in Law the same. Only once they had to open it when wasn't 100% dry and still had small amount of water in it

“The first rule about fight club is you don’t talk about fight club.”

For some reason that was in back on my Head, might have heard it once before. Was just looking into branching out looking at other lines and saw a great rate for a 60+ niter... Thank you!

I'm in USA, never Cruised this line. Anything I should know about Booking from USA and Cruising this line and as an American? Thank you

True, but better have the fights while still in the channel then just throw them off to swim ashore

And was this way on Vision Class in mid-90's, even on Sovereign back in 80's where only late afternoon option was Tea Time

Until Covid and Masking started my Mother and I didn't realize how bad her hearing was. Mask was only part the problem as she'd been also reading lips to help.

Don't really care for these Cans of Water but last few Cruises got plastic bottles 1/3 the time and even once Glass Evian Bottles instead, all same price

Yes the adding $5.95 was an on/off thing since Voyager's first sailings in late 90's. First Johnny's was Free but too busy/popular on first Ship with added choice of Specialty Restaurant's. Within a month the Cover was added but included a Shake. Months later this was dropped. I was on Voyager #004 back when they listed each Sailing, first cover started and Explorer #008 when it was Free again to eat(but not a Shake). Cost topic was even talked about on Cruise Critic back 22yrs ago

Agree, Thank You!

True, I know. Was on the then new Voyager sailing #004 in 90's and Explorer #008 soon after. Since 2010 only done Radiance or Vision Class, like the enclosed Solarium and smaller Ships...at least till they are gone
