On our next cruise, we will arrive in Barcelona at 6:00am. DH and I are considering self-disembarkation for this cruise. What are the benefits and drawbacks of this compared to traditional disembarkation? The search function is not currently working. Thanks for your input.
We did self disembark last year from Oasis and will do again this year from Allure. The process starts very early. We carried our own luggage, RCCL crew provided guidance as we made our way off the ship. We picked up our luggage, were through customs and were on the curb getting a cab by 6:30AM. This works for us because we like to catch an early flight home.
Happy sailing~

nobody owes us anything for serving. ..If it is offered out of the goodness of their hearts, fine. if not I do not feel cheated or put out that one company does and another doesn't. if it is a deal breaker, stick with Princess.
If not for the Men and Women who have served and those who currently serve, we could not sail those beautiful seas safely.
(DH currently serves -7 yrs USMC and 13 yrs USAF Reserve)
On previous sailings w/CCL, we got a very nice Military discount. RCCL offered Military discount for our upcoming April sailing on Allure. We don't care where a discount, or OBC comes from because the bottom line for ALL of us is the best price offered.
Happy sailing!

My husband and I did the $55 package last year. We believe the package was a cost savings compared to paying for each drink + tip separately. We think the $45 package will do just fine this year.

I like a bold watch so I like Michael Kors; I have 4 of his watches. I agree w/ others, wait for the watch sale. I believe I paid approx. $250 for each of my MK watches and around $600 for the Invicta I bought for our son.

There is a story that goes with this picture. At 41 my sister had a major stroke. To save her life they had to do surgery and as a result, take out about 1/3 of her skull....it stayed safe in her belly for over a year (because she had a staph infection post op they did not want to put it back too soon) while she recovered. At her most critical moment in the ICU, I held her hand and told her if she would only open her eyes I would take her anywhere in the world she wanted to go....her eyes flew open (the first of many miracles!), and as soon as she came off the ventilator she requested we go on a cruise. So in late April this year, almost 2 years after her stroke, we boarded the Legend with our mom, our other sister, two nieces and my sisters’ best friend. My sister wanted to swim with the dolphins more than anything else, so I scheduled the Royal Swim. Although VERY skeptical when we arrived, given my sisters physical limitations, the staff agreed to "let her try”. This picture was taken during the foot push.....what you can't see are the six women standing in the water watching her, laughing and crying at the same time. Since this day, my sister has continued to recover, expanding her horizons daily; because this moment in time renewed her confidence and made her realize that ANYTHING is possible!
Thank you for sharing. I just laughed and cried and gave thanks to God as I read this. Please give her a hug for me! She is an inspiration.

If I remember correctly there is a very nice, smaller, more "adult like" Wind Jammer type place in the solaruim. I believe the provide healthier food choices.
