Royal Caribbean does not operate under the purview of the British FCDO nor the ABTA.
I fail to see how you come to these conclusions regarding refunds, nor liability on the part of the cruise line.
Absolutely not. Travel insurance is not even a requirement, so how could an operator be liable for the invalidation of your policy? This is an issue strictly between the traveler and their insurer.
You will have no trouble getting a chef’s table reservation on board; and it will very likely be cheaper than booking pre cruise.
Many of my cruises recently they are practically begging people to book it.
So then, according to the post i originally reference; a travel operator would need to familiarize themselves with the travel policies of every client in order to prevent being complicit in negating policies and becoming liable for any claims that would have originally been handled by that policy????
Am I reading this right?
Are you saying Royal would be liable for any claims you may have due to your travel insurance being negated by a stop in a port on the FCDO "do not travel" list?
Royal cancelling stops does not mean Labadee is unsafe. Personal safety during a port stop was WAAAYYYYYY down the list in this decision making process.
Dining requests, regardless of ship, are handled by a centralized office. Email them, NO MORE than 2 weeks prior to embarkation with your ship, reservation number and request.

PDCC is a well recognized and often used abbreviation on this and many other cruise boards. It is also used on travel booking sites listing cruise itineraries
You can purchase refreshment package a few days into the cruise but will have to buy it for the remaining days; no, everyone in the cabin is not required to purchase.
You paid for "X" days on a ship, nothing more; stop trying to create a financial loss where none exists.
Using your faulty reasoning, Royal should charge you a "fuel surcharge" because they are going to burn much more fuel on your journey than they had originally budgeted for.
