Wow, thems would be fighting words, but on reflection, if more feel like you, she’ll be easy to book! Can’t wait. Will be even more excited if they have Hamilton as the show! 🙂

Did anyone not look at FAQs on Royal’s website? https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/are-the-onboard-shops-duty-free

If you’ve never travelled in your life, I can understand the confusion. For anyone else - seriously! Purchase limits are well communicated by the government. Don’t blame the cruise line. Yes, it would be great if they explain process. And, they probably should. But, didn’t anyone think to ask in the shop how it would be handled coming home? Same goes for OP who is at least diamond.

We’re on the Explorer of Seas May 21, 2023 leaving from Ravenna. We didn’t realize Ravenna was such a distance from Venice. What are the best ways to get to Ravenna from Venice either on a Saturday or on a Sunday morning.

Best wishes for your trip and hope you get to Venice soon. I came online to do research this morning for a trip we have out of Ravenna next May. I had no idea it was 2-3 hours from Venice! We’ll have to make some changes so we don’t miss the ship! LOL, my DW will be surprised.

@RockHoundTXthank you, great explanation, something that I’ll have to try!

Wouldn’t doubt it. It’s my least favourite airport. Always carry bag with computer and camera equipment with me.

Ouch! Touchy, touchy. And, I thought I was funny!

The whole reason we book flights through cruise lines and is that if something goes sideways, their flight group is available to fix it. Only had one issue and that was on Celebrity when my luggage didn’t make the ship on a cruise out of Rome. I had a rolley with a few things with me. Took four days to get rest of luggage in Istanbul, the concierge comp’ed me whatever I needed from shops on board. It was an experience but they tried to make it right.

Good entertainment!

“Screen name fits”, “depending on your tone” that’s one rude reply. I think the poster was only looking for friendly feedback.

We’ve seen them on all ships we’ve been on this year (Allure 2x, Voyager and Oasis).

We were on Allure in August, but not sure.

Ask for a table for 2

Sounds really interesting, but a few Q’s from curiosity. What strength magnet does he use. What’s the test of the line? Does he “lose” a lot of magnets? I mean if you contact rebar in the water, you most probably lose your magnet. Just curious. Sounds fun.

We’re on Explorer next year too, we did everything through Air2Sea, ask them.

Well, guess you could approximate by looking at distance from table to where the wait staff picks up food, number of courses, bites per course, chews per bite, and time per chew. Later data for slowest chewer. Or, just have a great cruise.

No, not usually, but often there will be cancellations. So, check to get on a waiting list.

Us too, as well as, freshly squeezed OJ and mixed juices outside the spa.

This is their documented policy. You obviously thought it was good value when you booked. Be grateful your able to go on a cruise and have a great trip.

A similar question, what port do you most enjoy watching pier runners from?

Thank you for the great review, you gave me something new to add to the bucket list.

To be safe, tell them which drinks you’re ordering on tge beverage package.

Was on Allure in August and had paper Compass each night. But what a change over the past 10 years. All the beautiful magazines in cabin are gone. Cruise lines must be saving a forest each week!

Have a great trip! We always do late dining as Med cruises are port intensive. Don’t want to stand in line for MTD.
