I am a solo D+ sailing on Allure. As a solo, with either BOGO, I would eat in a specialty restaurant on nights 1 and 2. If I buy the BOGO online it is $40. It appears that the Diamond+ BOGO would be more expensive,. Is that correct? Does anyone know what restaurants participate in either of these deals. I think I remember that the Allure only has a few restaurants where the online BOGO can be used.

Thanks!!

I have stayed in studios on the Jewel and Brilliance, when the price is right. For example, 14 night Jewel TA for $782. I find the location on Deck 4 so convenient.

My mistake Marie, it's just a snack area in the Solarium, not a full fledged Park Cafe. Keep forgetting that they shortchanged Jewel.

Thanks Bob. I will check it out in May.

Park Cafe and outside Windjammer seating,.

Park Cafe....how did I miss it? Bob, I was on the TA with you and am going again in May. Don't want to miss it this time. Where is it?

Thanks

Marie

Rent a car and visit the Donkey Sanctuary and have lunch at Kamini's Kitchen in San Nicholas.

Speak too the restaurant people, they should be able to work something out. Normally they will let you dine the second time for free.

Thanks Bob.

Hi Bob,

Do you know how the D+ bogo works for a solo cruiser? Thanks.

Happy New Year to you and Lee.

Just booked Jewel TA October 30, 2019 in a lowly solo Studio for only $780.00. It will be my 4th TA on the Jewel.

cabin type- the new deck fr ocean view cabins 4586 (4582-4590)

Thanks for the photos of 4586. I am in this cabin on the Jewel Trans Atlantic sailing on 11/6.

Was very surprized to see family 8 person suites with Slides, 2 level rock climbing wall, air hockey table, etc. Reminds ( seriously) you of a McDonalds Playroom with all the nets full of balls and tube slide. Who would ever want to book a 7 or more day relaxing cruise in such an envioronment. Even the most liberal, social media, gum chewing mind could not be at ease after a few days with kids in this jungle gym suite. Be careful what you ask for, you might just get it. Sorry Royal Carrib, I am afraid you are catering to the wrong crowd with this....whatever happened to Elegant, romantic, relaxing cruising ?

Try a transatlantic cruise on a Radiance class ship!

We have always been able to book our preferred restaurant once on board using the FNDR. Keep in mind this is a promotion and a really great value. If you care most about convenience and not the savings, you can always book your preferred restaurant online in advance...at regular price!

Me too. However, on Allure, once onboard, they now limit the selection of restaurants..

I was on the extended 9/3 Allure cruise and was not allowed to select CHOPS for FNDR. Only choice was Samba Grill or Giovanni's Table. I was not told that when I reserved. The possible restaurants should be mentioned in the description of the deal.

This is how misinformation gets people confused

Thank you for stating the obvious. At least I corrected my honest mistake.

For people currently onboard? We have not heard that.....

APOLOGIES....i was reading info for another ship. No refund. No credit.

Where are you hearing that? This is on board now?

I am on board too. We got letter explaining cancellations and changes. I think the info was there but i may have seen it on website.

I am on board now too. We received a letter in cabin which showed cancellations and changes. It also showed refund and credit info, unless i had too many in the diamond lounge and misread.

Are they giving you any kind of a future cruise credit?

Bob, 25% future cruise credit in addition to refund for current cruise. Must book within 30 days. Very generous imo.

Nachi Cocom here we come!

We are on Allure 9/3. I have a feeling we will be relaxing on the beach at Nachi Cocom one day this coming week.

With roads closed because of flooding and flights cancelled and/or airport closed travel is next to impossible. What are the cruisers going to do when they arrive in Galveston? Royal should take them to a safe port and transport home. Expensive yes, but lots of good will that will in the end benefit Royal. Airlines could waive change fees and assist with getting everyone home.

Congrats, Bob. Well deserved and overdue!

I did the Chef's Table on Anthem in May. I have been to several Chef's Tables and this one was the best, partly because of the food and wine, but mainly the folks who attended. Before I knew it it was 10:30! It is held in a private dining room in a corner of CHOPS. To me it was worth every penny for a most enjoyable evening.
