Good thing we sailed when we did

Exactly!.  I had a friend that wants to see some of these countries and could not find any Royal ones, just MSC and Norweigan.

Contact them at @royalcaribbean on Twitter or Post on their FB page.  They generally are very responsive to these kind of situations.

There were all cancelled. It was meant to be Serenade from Copenhagan but due to the Ukraine War they ship was redeployed. 

Thank you. 

I am not seeing any Baltic Cruises for 2023 Summer.  Any idea when and if they will be released

We need just we’re boarding the ship when the original fire which shut down the engine in June. We were delayed by a few hours leaving as the coast guard had to inspect everything.  Sounds like this one was a little worse. Hoping all goes well and you can continue your trip. 

Voyager 11 day Baltic had it on sea days and it was different each time

Wow.  that basically sucks.  All along it has been 12 and now a big whammy with 5 and older.  OP  hopefully you get the full refund.  

We had one on Voyager in August.  They did have the Coffee Chatwith an Officer on the compass but no officers showed up.

Did you do a mock booking and do a comparison, between an interior and a balcony.  My offer was a free interior for 2.  I'm solo and after all of the discounts (D+ balcony, resident, etc.) it cost me an add'l $5 + T & F for an Oceanview balcony on Anthem in February.

Yes and it was only 200.00 total. They wanted 700.00 extra I don't think they took my d plus discount.  I am going to have to call back.  There isnt a senior or resident yet.  Do  they not do the GTY room category?

Did the other couple travel without your party? 

Because that is what we are doing. We are traveling, but they are not due to COVID positive. 

 

 

Yes the other couple travelled without any issue. Once they cancel, you automatically become unlinked.

I made Prime last year and have the free cruise.  It says an interior room, but before I call to book, is that the lowest category or could it be a promenade or central park view?  

I called to see what the difference would be for a balcony and it was not a good deal at all and could book it for close to the same price with the free inside room.

This happened to us.  We were linked with another couple, booked with the same ta.  I ended up testing positive on the pre cruise test and had to cancel.  I informed my TA who called royal and told them Iwas positive.  I did have to send my positive result screenshot.

We sail Oct 16, how far in advance can you apply?

Keep in mind that 12am starts the new day.  e.g I had 5 vouchers for Monday, didn't use them until the evening.  Used 3 between 10pm and 12 am.  Thinking I had 2 more for the day.  I used 2 more to get water before going to bed.  The next day those 2 waters counted against my Tuesday total of 5 vouchers.

Please post who the captain, cruise director, and hotel director is!

Hotel Director is Ciara from Ireland.  

I did the same thing on my October Bermuda Mariner. This was a double points so I could resist. I had 2 cruises due to covid and want d the points. After that cruise I am 4 away from pinnacle.

When we got on 3 weeks ago, we also had the milestone note, but they didn't say they were out, instead it woud be delivered to our room, or we could have it mailed home, or we could decline. Or what I did, nothing, so someone else could have it. So, I did not get the last one .

 Now, the next one I plan on getting. At 700 days.

If you go to the loyalty ambassodor she can order the missed one for you.  We have a Quantum coming but I think it is lost somewhere.

I like the side facing ones which are much quieter than the aft.  Its all personal preferance.  If you like people watching and flowrider, golf, zip line than aft for sure.  If you like side facing and ocean views than side for sure.  Both great rooms!

Would you recommend this Sanitorni tour.  If so would you share teh contact info.  We will have about 12 people looking for something like this.

Wondering this myself.

As the cruise sector continues to evolve and adapt to an everchanging environment, we look forward to moments where we can share progressive movement. While continuing to prioritize the health and safety of our guests, crew, and the communities we visit, we are excited to begin transitioning to a point that more closely aligns with other travel and hospitality sectors. With that, we are pleased to announce the easing of test requirements for most U.S. itineraries.
 
Testing Update: For your clients sailing from the U.S. August 8 -  August 14th, 2022: 

• Fully vaccinated guests will only have to show a test result at boarding if the sailing is 6 nights or longer.
• Unvaccinated children will still need to show a test result to board all sailings, regardless of length. However, they will not need to test again at the terminal.
• Guests will now have the same test standard, regardless of vaccination status: You can show a negative test result from a supervised PCR or antigen test taken within 3 days of boarding day. 

This revision does not apply to guests whose itinerary visits Canada or Bermuda. These clients will still need to follow our current testing protocols until further notice.

Please note that guests confirmed on U.S. sailings departing on or before August 7, 2022, should adhere to protocols previously communicated.

For those clients booked after August 14, 2022, please await the specific protocol details from us related to those sailings. 

As we begin to transition to a point where everyone, regardless of vaccination status, will be able to sail with us once again, we continue to work closely with our destination partners. Additional information will soon follow, however, until then, current vaccine guidance remains unchanged.

So 3 days for the US.  Any info on Copenhagen?  That would make my life so much easier!
