My problem is not with the change which I accept. My problem is with Royal Caribbean. The nickel and diming as they say. After 300 nights, might give it a rest!

Really, not all. Many unhappy atm unfortunately. I actually haven’t heard of many wanting compensation. It was mainly that many guests did not know of the changes at all.

I am glad your sister is enjoying herself. I do wonder that there was no Captains Corner as he might have been asked questions about compensation.? Many people not happy, with their lack of communication. We are going ok, but not rushing back to Royal in a hurry I do not think. It would have to be a very good itinerary.

Our son lives there and yesterday morning, he had a metre of water thru his house and rising! No contact today unfortunately. CHILLI if you read this, did they have a Captains Corner when you were on Brilliance.? None today and I was a little surprised.Also, no one has mentioned the whole cruise about our change of itinerary, not a word! It is like it didn’t exist. Also,,the staff have gone out of their way in the last few days to make sure everyone is happy. I think they know the guest satisfaction surveys are around the corner. We even got our Chops Steak bill taken care of my Head Waiter.

Update on the Billiard Balls. 64 have been found. Apparently a hole in the billard table and the balls were slipping into this hole.So not only were the 22 found but some additional found also. A case of believe it or not🤣 it will be repaired in Sydney.

I just asked someone playing the billiards the question…….he had absolutely no sense of humour and looked at us like idiots! Many people with problems, I think, when you consider the billiard ball situation!

No more news of the billard balls. They said they had the cameras but they were hoping for an honesty system.

No today but perhaps Tomorrow. The Salamanca Markets had scollops on a stick though.😄

Going ok Chez, but not our preferred cruise obviously. Haven’t had your problem thankfully.

Currently on Brilliance and about to lose internet. We just had an announcement thru all cabins and dining room that 22 billiard balls have been misplaced or stolen on this cruise and they are wanting them returned. I did have to check my watch to see it wasn’t 1st April. Third world problem for Royal Caribbean as it has apparently never happened before.

Extremely funny (not)

We probably will stay on the ship!

We can do the walk, not that old yet! Just not my favourite destination!

I still haven’t received the email. I was just reading it again on FB and they really have a ‘Spin Doctor’ to write their letters. Apparently you can cancel, but not additional OBC. I have had emails re checking in (3 times), Health survey (twice) and OBC details (once) but nothing about change of itinerary . I feel sorry for everyone who booked excursions as discounted prices in AUD prior to the cruise, now to go on board and book excursions at full price and in US dollars. It is a win, win situation for Royal. A little extra OBC wouldn’t hurt, but that is how you make billion dollar profits I guess. Nothing to do with this cruise or change of itinerary, but feel this could be our last Royal Caribbean cruise, definitely not the same, looking at activities . Husband will be happy though Veterans get to gether on every day!!!!!

I know you will be there, smiling as usual! See you Friday. Hopefully a quick check in with less people.

I did see the red carpet yesterday, and it looked very welcoming. Hope it there on Friday🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thank you. We have good friends in Adelaide who we will go to lunch with and I do like Salamanca Markets, so that will be enjoyable. We did book a tour for Eden but Melbourne….not for me.🤣. You will live Hobart, it is a most wonderful place to visit. Hope you have a great cruise….we will!

I haven’t received the email as yet, but know the changes are happening. Interesting that there is no option to cancel except thru TI. We had decided to go anyway…wherever it was going. In Sydney already and having a drink near Resilient Lady! PS The only email I have had today is re my OBC.

Speculation of the seas is at it again!

Ok, there is talk that we might go to Eden first then head North?

Hobart and Adelaide would be fine!

This cruise has been doomed for us. We originally booked to see our new grandson for Xmas who unfortunately didn’t live, then we decided still to go to see our son and now???? We wish we had the opportunity to cancel. Have even done a Covid test this morning!

NOT MELBOURNE Chili!😩

Just adding a few extra clothes now, but leaving home shortly!

Yes, We are heading there on Friday on Brilliance of the Seas.
