  1. If this were true they wouldn't have the any loyalty programs or any perks at all. Now do they care MORE about attracting new customers over the loyal existing? Absolutely
  2. Generally you can get some great beach front all inclusive resort deals in Mexico, DR, etc; works for those who want to spend ample time at the beach and/or ocean Cruising is great if you want to visit multiple locations
  3. - Double check you don't already have included internet in your cruise fare as you may already get it if you booked the "All Included" fare - You can purchases a 24 hour pass, last ship I was on wanted $50 - You can wait until mid sailing to purchase wifi and only pay the prorated amount however once you start it
  4. If you're calling for something else, might as well do it at the same time. Yet if you wait onboard, on the 4 ships I've been on, they had the CC discount appear the first time you try to connect
  5. Basic would not let use cruisecritic, onboard internet staff will state the site is too complex The good news is you can upgrade mid sailing and only pay the prorated amount; however, once you start it you cannot stop it (maybe if you complain multiple times)
  6. With the specialty restaurants except for sushi, once on board, good luck finding a reservation other than 9pm on the last night
  7. It was the best dining experience and best food I had on X
  8. Lunch (guessing breakfast too?) is only on sea days
  9. 1. Is discussing cruise stock or any investments on cruise critic a good idea? There are dedicated investment forums 2. Many on here already own the stock and have no plans on selling so they can enjoy the OBC
  10. Another way to increase food quality and ensure they’re immune to budget cuts is partner with existing food chains. For example, with burgers most believe X’s burgers are below average. RCI has Johny Rockets and CCL has Guy’s burgers and receive rave reviews
  11. I've expanded the conversion that a corporation like RCG being in debt is not uncommon. What are folks wanting to hear that they don't already know? Pricing will continue to rise, executive compensation will continue to rise and products/services for passengers will decline
  12. Thanks and that's exactly how I guessed it would work. Simply trying to help others expectations when folks post "used two cards, received two offers" it probably doesn't mean one offer on a primary and another on an AU
  13. Big corporations being is debt is nothing new, assuming they're able to pay their obligations there isn't really a this assumed dire NEED to get out of debt quickly; just sharing some in debt corporation data from 2019 to show debt is not uncommon:
  14. All depends how you look at it, another way to look at it is they're devaluing the non-retreat rooms which they are not selling out
  15. I personally do not have any AUs yet a few seem to be asking card you if "double-dip" (or triple-dip, etc) , receive one offer on a primary and another offer on AU. If AMEX is following their own T&Cs, that should be excluded
  16. To clarify, was one card a primary card and the rest authorized user cards or are they four entirely different cards?
  17. Companies carrying massive debts is nothing new and there isn't a NEED to get out of it quickly It seems what they're trying to do is to further differentiate the Retreat as it seems to be immune from the new fees and cuts
  18. Only thing about cruise lines is they are in competition with themselves and visiting by land
  19. I wish but my WAG ("Wild A$$ Guess) is they're doing this to reduce the number chefs per ship
  20. Call X, I wouldn’t trust someone on here telling you it’s refundable as that info may be out of date
  21. Thanks…While I can still edit I updated the room service. More interested 2023 increases vs new news
