I got married in St Thomas while in port on oasis of the seas (RCCL) and I was allowed to bring my half eaten wedding cake back on board for our reception with no problem. I know it's a different cruise line but they all follow the same regulations.

I say you will be fine.

I have made 3 complaints out of my many cruises.

The first one was on RCCL. I had a new swimsuit my husband and I went in the hot tub. An hour later my swimsuit was suddenly "stripped" with bleach stains. I made a complaint, showed proof of the bleaching. They looked into it, I presume checked the levels of the hot tub and then provided me with $60 obc to buy a new swimsuit. I was very happy with the response.

The second complaint was on the same RCCL cruise. It was a

Shore tour that was in Turkey. We were due to go on a sailing vessel, which was not the type of boat we went on, and we didn't do anything as described in the excursion... Everyone on the tour was given a 50% refund so I guess there must have been a lot of complaints.

My third complaint was on Carnival Glory. We had an interior cabin and all night from 9pm till 6am every few minutes a bang could be heard that sounded like a door slamming. They had staff members inspect the noise and did hear it and moved us to a cabin of the same class on the second night after being unable to determine where the sound was coming from. We were again very satisfied with the response.

Out of the 15+ cruises I have done, I find these are the only issues I've encountered that I would complain about.

I am on your cruise and got the same email. Clicked on it right away and was already expired!:mad:

Mine said the same, if you call they should still offer it - they did for me this morning!

My cruise is on the Carnival Dream leaving March 1st 2015.

I booked an obstructed guarantee Ocean View cabin on a great deal at Halloween and today i got an email offering an upgrade to a Balcony Cabin for a very minimal fee!

Needless to say i jumped on the deal.

So we went from being "to be assigned" cabin to 9314 :)

We are so excited, we have never been given the opportunity to upgrade before, i didnt know they even did this.

Oh I totally agree! I went through that for weeks and called rci many times and they were useless till one time I got a great lady who booked it all for me!

Hope you have better luck with a reservation once onboard!

Thank you for taking the time to post! I am on the grandeur in 19 days and can not wait! Do you have any photos of the new areas you would be able to share?

We are going to be using St thomas for the easiness factor! I have emailed janelle at island bliss as i have heard so many wonderful things about them.

One question though.. my fiance is funny about not wanting to see me the day of the wedding, i told him i wont have my dress on but he wants to know if there is a way around it... haha i said maybe he could be blind folded!! Any suggestions from the now married ladies?

The captain told us to wake up early (again) for the cruise into Yakutat Bay.....the Bay where Hubbard Glacier was located. This day was where the hump balcony (and even the starboard balcony paid off. I felt bad for the people on the port side of the ship. As we approached we watched the glacier come into view. We called our friends with an inside cabin but they were already somewhere watching from above. This was a perfect location. We had the table with our 3 cameras and two camcorders and binoculars so we could grab which ever we required. The water color was outstanding and we were floating through ice from

Oh no... I am going on the radiance on he 19th of august and specifically got a balcony for the glacier scenic cruising and guess what side I'm on... Port side. Sucks to be me!
