  1. It's a combination of the loud engines, vibrations and the wind created by the moving vessel. I have the same problem sometimes when the Royal Captain makes his announcements, especially when one is at the pool. However, I can hear the CD loud and clear.😜
  2. Thanks, I've gone to BL many times and always direct. There are usually a mountain of Paxs waiting to board the shuttles/ferries.
  3. Late dining you should have no problem. As others have mentioned call Royal CS to change, otherwise do it as soon as you board by going to one of the mailer d at the mdr
  4. Some of the earliest articles that I've read indicates that this excursion was coming from Paradise Island. All of the Blue Lagoon excursions that I've taken were from the docks. Wondering if this was an independent excursion. In October, we took this excursion and going from the dock, the ferry/shuttle took the opens seas route we were bouncing a bit and had water spraying all over the front of the boat. This was not the standard route which we took on the return.
  5. Sorry, not available since I completed the survey. Too Bad. I was hoping that survey was only for Royal as some of the itineraries have become stale.
  6. Not sure if this has been addressed on this board. Interesting, some of the port of calls I've never heard of. Wonder if it also applies to Celebrity and SilverSea. https://royalcaribbean.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6MrTnhUkJZDOVkq?Q_DL=xJrZKDcRhEFX7Gt_6MrTnhUkJZDOVkq_CGC_CZZTMUcXYOyVyZT&Q_CHL=email
  7. What I found as true sales have been internet with multiple devices, lunches at SR, soda and refreshments packages. The dinner sales on SR occurred during Int'l Pasta Day and Halloween. I get e-mails with Black Friday sales but any mock booking on sails that I have done, I don't see any type of sales and or specials. Has anyone come across any?
  8. If you think the Odyssey is large and painful to get around, don't try any of the Oasis classes. To me the bigger the better as I enjoy roaming around.
  9. I thought he was commenting on the new Royal production "Columbus" on Harmony OTS.🤣
  10. @Ourusualbeach Speaking of promos and discounts I've been doing some mock bookings on 2025-2026 recently issued Caribbean schedules and having a problem applying solo supplement promo DP340. Message says invalid or not applicable. Do you know if it's an IT glitch or is Royal doing away with it. Ps. Mock bookings were outside of the blackout dates.
  11. There were 2 options. Small and large and were expensive then. Remember a small version on Portofino’s
  12. My sail was about a month earlier than yours out of Bayonne and there were 3 distinct questions and one of them was the status of your C shots.
  13. Really, that question was one of 3 health questions asked since the so-called end of the pandemic. Wonder if it's ship's specific or port of departure.
  14. On my October 8, Oasis in addition asked C shot(s).
  15. I did the 4 devices during the current sale and the 4th cost me $14 and the 3rd cost $35 for the week.
  16. Tomorrow is a tentative date for release of phase 1 Caribbean sails. Do we know what it encompasses.
  17. If I decide to cancel cruise prior to final payment date my risk is the deposit of $100 pp. Since I cruise solo therefore only $100 is at risk.
  18. That is the reason I primarily book on board as my exposure is only $100 pp.
  19. Can you call the Casino desk and book and apply the $500. I do this and never had a problem. I had recently a different experience. Had booked an 11 niter Explorer on board and later transferred to my TA. At the end of my Oasis cruise, received a credit certificate of $200 from the Casino. The Monday after I got home, called my TA and asked them if I can apply the credit to the Explorer sail. My contact was hospitable and said that she needed to contact Royal for approval. A few days later got an e-mail telling me that the transaction was approved and processed. I had to give back $50 in TAs OBC. However, I was positive $150.
  20. Recently had my TA apply a $200 casino credit. No problem but clawed back $50 in OBCs. I said not a problem as I'm good for a net of $150.00.
  21. @Ourusualbeach I was doing mock bookings of repositioning sails, and the system would not allow the single supplement code. These sails were not listed in the blackout periods. Do I have an old list of benefits.
  22. When I apply the DP340, my balcony discount is lowered to $188.00. However, I've had some sails where the discount is $177.00 and don't know why. Called once Royal CS and they could not give me a straight answer.😀 I've calculated that there's a 25% haircut applied to the balcony discount when using the promo code. The balcony discount for my 11-night Explorer sail was reduced to $263.00 which represents 75% from the allowable $350.00
  23. Is it a future certificate and not an actual booked sail. No matter what method the next cruise agent should have printed a paper invoice/certificate.
