  1. @taglovestocruise @twangster Just my humble observation...I have seen more single female pinnacles than men. * Observation conducted during CWO.
  2. Our addiction with RCCL started out of San Pedro...on the Song of America.
  3. As an old hippie, I learned to use the Royal App and look at the CK menu. If I see something I like for lunch or dinner at CK, we eat there. A few favorites at CK...filet, Hamaci crudo, sticky pineapple ribs, cheese tortellini with truffles, rack of lamb,...ok, I'm getting hungry. * We love Hooked (for the fresh oysters). Disclosure: We are older and eat much less...so CK is good for us. We love the Blu and Luminae on X.
  4. @crzndebthank you. What's your best guess as to where it may go? * Hoping it stays in the westcoast...sorry to all my lovely Aussie friends.
  5. Sorry to hear this...what was the reason for cancelling? Thanks.
  6. Nice! Hopefully you get more next week. Also hoping you set aside some room in your luggage. Thanks again.
  7. Ken...please, a couple of pictures of the walking/running track. Is there even one like the Oasis class? Pictures of daily gifts if you get them. (Nice commemorative gifts were delivered in our cabin during the Allure inaugural.) Is it Top 30 Pinns to access CK and Suite deck? Thanks!
  8. Thanks for the names. Oh my.. hope the service gets better...at least the filet was delicious. * I have never been charge extra for Whispering Angel...curious if they'll charge you extra at Vintages?
  9. LB, may I ask who the CK Host and Manager...and Suite Concierge are? Thank you.
  10. Alison Hubble is one of the friendliest crew members we've ever met onboard. (She was working at NextCruise at the time.)
  11. My first thought...drug sniffing dog.
  12. @Chiliburn...that's a great deal! How often does this happen? We used the Opal Card when we were in Sydney...what is the daily cap for it currently? I know there was an extra charge to take the train to and from the airport...what is the cost now? Thank you.
  13. We had the solarium event on the Symphony....SRO, lots of drinks and small bites.
  14. Yes...there was a Top Tier. The solarium event was for sail-away.
  15. @Another_Critic...you type faster than I do...our experience was the same...free flowing champagne, mimosa, and some kind of rum punch.
  16. Lost our virginity. Got our first duck on the Symphony.
  17. Yes, get on the app as soon as you exit the terminal. We've used Uber in Port Everglades, San Juan, Vancouver, Seattle, Boston, and Miami. There's usually a car within minutes.
  18. Yes! that's the one! Thanks. Also enjoyed Saturday Night Fever, on the Liberty, out of Galveston.
  19. On the Navigator, they have allowed me to wear my sunglasses...with Crokies.
  20. Jersey Boys. * They had it at one time...or it may have been another cruiseline.
  21. Love the Symphony...random thoughts... * Muster drill is easier and faster. * Cabin service is now only once a day...unless you're in a suite. * Symphony has a separate non-smoking casino...located at the former Jazz Club. * Tips have increased. * Diamond Lounge now Crown Lounge. * Symphony has Brunch on seadays in the MDR...but it closes at noon. * MDR menu now have Indian dishes daily. * We've adapted and use the Royal App. * You get your Seapass card outside your cabin door...not at the terminal. * Not sure if they had it 7 years ago...but you may see the roving piano player. * Symphony now has Casitas for rent. Here's a photo of the Christmas tree on the Symphony.
  22. This...exactly. I loved my tuxedo. Then looking at all our formal cruise pictures, the grandkids said: "Grandpa, you and grandma look nice. Grandma's wearing different dresses...how come you're always wearing the same thing?" (Darn kids, they notice everything.) * I don't have my tuxedo anymore and try to wear something different when taking formal pictures. Also, not having the tuxedo saves on luggage weight...not to mention the tuxedo pants got tighter and tighter.
  23. Same on our Quantum and Symphony sailings.
  24. Walkie Talkies.. that reminds me... Years ago, in Rome, we had 2 people in our group late coming back to the bus...so we waited. The bus driver and guide couldn't wait anymore so 4 of us decided to look for them. 4 of us because we had 4 Motorola walkie-talkies...we all went in different directions...and ultimately found the "lost" passengers. Genuinely thankful we had the walkie-talkies. The bus driver and guide said "wished we had those radios"...so we gave them 2 of the walkie-talkies.
