Jingerwoppy replied to niksmom630's topic in Royal Caribbean International
They assigned us to Lot 4 when we reserved our spot. -
I think they make you Captain the ship overnight......

Just on the Allure and I believe it was $200 per person.

Mini “LIVE” , Allure from Galveston 12/4
Jingerwoppy replied to niksmom630's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We were on the same cruise and it was our first time on a ship larger than LOTS. Parking Used Indoor Parking and they were ok. Issue is that at the terminal the # of slots the parking services are relegated to appears to be 1 per service. As stated before, this means that each service has to wait for clearance. Our delay was exacerbated by one of the other Indoor Parking shuttle drivers cutting in ahead of us and making us wait longer. In addition, the shuttles are relegated to a lane that includes cars dropping off luggage - shuttles should have their own lane. This was also a problem when debarking. Embarkation It took longer than the prior terminal but overall it wasn't that bad considering how many people were getting on. They did have 2 of the metal detectors closed down which was a surprise - it's the biggest ship so I thought they'd have all of them open. Went to the WJ for lunch and it was crowded as expected but we did find a table. Shows Great as usual. Saw the ice show 3 times. Reserved 1 and did standby the other 2. After the first performance, there were always seats still available when the show started. Food and MDR As expected. We don't do specialty dining so we ate in the WJ and MDR. We found the table on our card and showed up there for dinner the first night. They came and told us we were at the wrong table and moved us to another table. Our card said table 506 and the app showed 506. They moved us to 513 and a couple of days later the app updated. General Thoughts on Oasis Class - The park is nice but I'd prefer a deck like LOTS that has more seating on the sides in the shade. - Seemed more crowded at times but a lot of the time the promenade actually seemed less crowded than LOTS. - We are laid back cruisers so we don't see that the claim about "all the extra things to do" is relevant to us. We don't eat at the specialty restaurants or zip line so after a day or so we've done all the "extra" things. - We were surprised at the cleanliness of the ship with all the people on it. - Room attendant was great as were the MDR staff and all the other staff we encountered. Disembarkation Off time was 9:40 but we were called about 8:50. They then closed the gangway for about 25 minutes. It was raining when we exited. Proceeded to the slot where our shuttle was supposed to be and found out that they had shuffled all the shuttle services to different slots that morning. We had a long line waiting for our shuttle and several people just walked up and cut in line. And again the shuttles being held up by cars dropping off and picking up people so we had to wait between shuttles. From getting in line to disembark on deck 5, it took us 1 hour and 37 minutes to get to our car at Indoor Parking. -

On Wonder of the Seas, It’s so crowded :(
Jingerwoppy replied to RC Dancers's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Talked to someone who was just on the Wonder. They said it was ok but somewhat mismanaged. Things like 70s night was on a formal night and the tropical night was the last night (difficult to pack before the deadline). Also said the food selection in the Windjammer was pretty limited. -
We have bamboo in our backyard and it isn't noisy...... 🙂

Uh oh, now I have a goal........

RCCL ship times from USA ports
Jingerwoppy replied to chukli's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Depends on the port you're sailing from. Ships out of Galveston are on Central time. Ships often stay on ship's time and only on certain cruises might the time change. -

Talk to me about Grandeur of the Seas, please
Jingerwoppy replied to Mum2Mercury's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We had an JS (I forgot since we don't do it very often). Room was 8520 but I'n sure the insides also have them. -

Jingerwoppy replied to Mum2Mercury's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I lied. We were in a JS but we did have a cooler under the counter. Cabin was 8520. We don't do JS very often. -

Jingerwoppy replied to Mum2Mercury's topic in Royal Caribbean International
It was one of the under counter coolers and yes it was for meds. Looks like all the others I've seen in the past. We use it for the meds and to store any sodas remaining on our Diamond cards at the end of the day. -
Ran out of gas......

I have a small one I always take by packing it in an outside pocket. We zip tie our luggage and I use it in the cabin to cut the zip ties. It comes in handy along with the little swiss army knife I have with scissors. So just pack it and you'll be fine. (Former leo.)
