NightOne

I had someone in my party with accessibility needs. Maybe that is why the tram didn't go further for us.

Didn't for us. Last there 9-5-2022. Stopped at Artisan's Village and went no further. Maybe it varies.

Again, stick to the things you actually know about. No luck to it.

1. Water was murky greenish uglyish - this could be seasonal but ... 2. Lots of noise from the nearby activities (water park etc.) 3. Long way to get there and you have to go through the vendor city 4. Pathways there seemed incomplete and the tram drops you at the start of vendor city 5. Just not a beautiful place I would like to float in the water If I went again I would go to that calm isolated beach area near Adrenaline Beach.

Literally was on the Wonder of the Seas with the new menus and everything was just fine. Was not limited at all. You might want to know what you are talking about before spreading misinformation. Also, my wife didn't have dietary restrictions and found the "regular" food to be uninspiring as well.

MSC Meraviglia is probably the most beautiful ship I have ever been on. However, with that said and after giving MSC 2 tries I won't sail them again because of their lack of options for those with dietary restrictions. As someone with celiac disease I could only eat at the MDR. Period. That includes lunch when the MDR was not open on some days. EVERY other venue on the ship could not accommodate. MDR not open? Too bad. Nothing. Also, the food in the MDR was just not very good. Just kind of bland. Not horrible but nothing you would want to have again. We paid for the upsell shows (Rock Circus and House of Houdini) and while they were good I would take any ice or aqua show on Royal over them. Also, the Cirque Dreams and Dinner show on NCL completely blew them out of the water. We have also had issues with both drunks and rude Europeans on MSC. So pretty ship doesn't make up for bigger issues in my opinion. 🙂

You never sailed from NY/NJ? What a noob. LOL Seriously, I was kidding. I am well aware that you have a zillion cruises under your belt. 🙂

That part was a joke. I was implying you hacked in and put it up yourself to prove it. I know it is real. 🙂

The only private island beach worse than Columbus Cove in Labadee is the NCL one at Harvest Caye. Went there once and would never go back. Labadee is the most overrated private island there is. At least Harvest Caye has a nice huge swimming pool. There, I said it. 🙂

Beaches = Cococay Zipline = Labadee Waterpark = Cococay Pool = Cococay Cabanas = Cococay Navigation = Labadee but only by a tiny bit Food = Cococay Lack of Agressive Vendors = Cococay So 6 to 2 on my scorecard

2 or 3 I think ... BUT from Port Canaveral LOL

Yup. Utopia is a utopia for the Royal bean counters. 🙂 I think the really takeaway here is that I should have never doubted @John&LaLa

As other people mentioned: Yes, go straight to the dining reservations station as soon as you board. However, don't get to bummed out of if you cannot get all your preferred times. People cancel, change plans, etc. so you can probably get better times by following up on days 2,3, etc.

Summer sailings from the land of Disney on a new ship going to Cococay? Prices will be the highest ever seen. Those over the water cabanas at Coco Beach Club may hit 5 digit numbers. You may actually be able to take a Disney cruise for only a little more money. RCL's debt will be paid off by the end of 2024. LOL

And skip/miss the new ship?

Is this how you went about finding those Utopia listings? 🙂

I don't know how you pulled off this masterful hack LOL Seriously, it sure as hell looks like you guys are right and I am wrong. I am still utterly shocked Royal would do this. Maybe they are figuring that the people who would want 7 day cruise will just book B2B 4/3 cruises. Again, does not make sense to me. but I AM CONVINCED of it now 🙂 - I was WRONG

Nah, I will believe it when I actually see it. If I am wrong I will fully admit it. You think they release itineraries in June 2023?

Will only believe it when I see it. :)

Just got back from our cruise on the Horizon and wanted to share how fantastic Seacow Bonaire was for us. Our group had the boat to ourselves and it was a fantastic boat. We particularly like the dual ladders/steps for getting in and out of the water. They had drinks and snacks for us and the snorkeling was great. Arno and Joyce were super cool. Here is their website: https://seacow-bonaire.com/ If you have any specific questions fell free to ask.

Super useful Thanks!!!

Wrong on too many levels LOL

They told me that changing to all benches allowed them to get like 262 more people in the Aquatheater. (Don't quote me on the number but it was significantly more people) Intense ... not much diving? Did you watch the show? Tons of diving! Compare it to OceanAria and it is like tons more diving than that one. Intense refers to the women's heart rates during that show. Nonstop action.

You can repeat it as many times as you want but it doesn't make it any truer. LOL I'm just ready to hear it already

We are traveling in Mid-July so hoping the weather will not be an issue. I did cancel our Royal excursions and will book with Norway's Best when it becomes available.
