  1. I learned from past mistakes and anytime there's a change to my reservations I do not end the call until I get the revised invoice and examine the changes. Just the difference in pricing should have been an indicator. Ps. I also charge any travel to my Chase Sapphire card which cover trip cancellation and interruption. Used the benefit multiple times and it's covered (including any change fees) by Zurich Insurance.
  2. Besides the # of daily drinks loaded to your Sea Pass the other values are teh C&A balcony discount ($250 for a 7 niter as D+) and the usage of the lounge. In addition, you are provided a robe, welcoming cabin gift, special bath/shower amenities, BOGO SR, interned discounts, reserved seating at certain venues, shareholder's benefit, etc. Also, a member with 340 + night single supplement fare in addition to the balcony discount. IMO, these benefits really ad up.
  3. Sometimes they resemble a swarm from the movie "The Birds"😆.
  4. Never seen sea gulls as big and aggressive as in Atlantic City.🤣
  5. I guess I must be blind as I see the Cubano sandwiches, but not the ribeye. Will look for it on my Oasis August 20 sail. As a sidelight, on a recent sail there, I was about to taste the meaty part of the Cuban and it was a bit messy and I got up to get extra napkins. As I was returning a resident Vulture 😁Gull scooped and took my sandwich from my plate. My granddaughter (8 yrs old) who was sitting at my table was open mouthed/agog as to what was happening. Simply amazing at this brazen act.😜
  6. Ribeye sandwiches, never saw any and I've been to CC many times. One item that Royal removed was tortilla chips and I guess it's to emulate the lack of chips at the CP cafe.😁 However, the CC buffets are much better than the ones at Labadee.
  7. We did the excursion thru Royal and it was a good & amazing 6 hours. It's about a bit over an hour from terminal to the KSC and the price at that time was reasonable. We are going there again on August 20 Oasis sail and the price was still reasonable @ $74.99 and in October it rises to $118 pp. D
  8. Sorry for your frustration. On one occasion, I wasn't getting any responses to my request and decided to fax instead. Got a response within a week. Fax: RCG #: 305.373.6699
  9. I have no problem applying online. You can enter as many sails /reservations #s and only one proof of ownership.
  10. Never offered on European sails. Shrimps were substituted.
  11. And my Mom was on the Andrea Doria one previous sail coming to the US before she sank.😁
  12. I disagree, it's much better now than before. We don't have to fight to get some rusty loungers and no umbrellas, and many times had to wait for an individual to get us loungers, as they were all stacked up. Also, you can ignore any amped or glitzy areas. as with Coco Cay.
  13. I guess you don't read almost daily muggings on the subway. I worked in the city for some 40 years and it's not the same. You talk about Times Square and what about the rest of the city. The Police are powerless. You got a Mayor that is an ex-Cop, and the crime is worse that the idiot that preceded him.
  14. I probably feel safer in Labadee than NYC, San Francisco, Detroit, etc. At the very least Security in Labadee will take action.
  15. Only once have my sails missed a port and it was some years ago. They opened the bars free for a couple of hours and even got some OBCs.
  16. I've gotten minor credits back due to lower T&F. Unless I'm missing the just, are you complaining that Royal is introducing this additional Bahamian taxes.
  17. I Have 4 cabins booked and all linked. I can see some details for the restaurants and excursions that I booked for everyone; however, I could not check them in or have the same arrival time as a group which drove me crazy. I got 11:30 and my son and daughter and family got 12 and 1 PM respectively. I was told that the time is assigned when the individual(s) checks in with their required information. Also, even though they are linked, I could not print their Sea Pass and tags.
  18. As with the MDR, shorts and polo shirts are very much acceptable.
  19. Went to my account for my February 9 Anthem sail and T&F have not changed, so far. Also, one of my gripes with their system. I click on "Make a Payment" for this sail and have to enter all of the indicative information--Ship, date of sail, reserve #, etc. Drives me nuts.😜
  20. I booked via a TA will the e-mail come from Royal or from the TA. Like to know so that I can follow-up with proper jurisdiction.
  21. Don’t sweat it, I got an e-mail for an October’24, but not for the Easter’24 sail.
  22. Send them 8 pennies via mail, with receipt requested.🤣
