I was on that cruise. I just got an email from them a few days ago that they were going to refund everything we requested and would be sending a check. I thought it was odd they would not just reimburse to our account. Did you get a check? Did you get an email stating they would pay one amount but sent another. Fingers crossed they don't mess this up. I plan on booking another trip. lol

My son used whatsapp on our last two cruises. The last one this past August on Pride. He has no issues calling his friends back home using this app and we didn't see a spike in our cell phone bill. You do need to pay for wifi on-board to use the app. Hope this helps.

Hi Shepherdqueen My husband has MS and we just returned from two weeks in London. He uses a mobility scooter to get around. Vacations are very doable with an MS dx, but proper planning is so important. We have had to adjust the way we travel over the years to accommodate his disability as it progresses. When we go to Cape Cod in the hot summer months, he makes sure to take cooling hats, drink lots of water, and take frequent breaks. If we are walking down to the beach, we choose a place that has a boardwalk or other structure so he is not walking on sand the whole way down. I would check with Royal's Guest Assistance before your trip. They deal with these issues all the time and I'm sure they will be able to give you a lot of good tips and advise on how to navigate their island. Also, there are a ton of private MS groups on facebook that you may want to consider joining. My husband belongs to one and I belong to a different one for "caretakers" of people with MS. It is so awesome having people in your shoes to talk with. All the best. Tracy

We just cruise out of Dover last month. By far the easiest, fastest boarding ever. We had a 12:30 time slot but got there about an hour early. NO LINES at all. Got right in, took the elevator to the correct floor (you can walk stairs but husband uses a scooter) and we were on board in about 10 minutes. They have it DOWN in Dover. Enjoy your cruise.
