No you keep those but instead of Blu you gain access to Luminae and you get access The Retreat. You will only get CC points for your original Acqua booking and not the points for a Sky Suite.

But it has those delicious milk shakes and fantastic onion rings 🙂

Not to mention their onion rings. We always get ‘half and half’ to go with our burgers at Johnny Rocket’s.

Beautiful!

I can't remember if I asked before or not but does Iian take his with a shot of Bailey's or not? I like mine that way.

Difference is that the West Coast curies that @Jim_Iainis on stayed in the time zone for multiple days (I think they only changed twice). On the referenced cruise Belize was the only port in Central Time zone.

I guess I don't. I have only been sailing on Royal Caribbean since 2007. I guess we will have to wait until after December 16th to find out for sure. I really do not have a dog in that hunt. I am not a Pinnacle and have no real plan to get to that level.

Actually there is not - I looked. The footnote simply says access is restricted to suite and pinnacle guest and you are not allowed to bring other non-suite/pinnacle guest into the lounge. Kids must be accompanied by an adult.

I have no idea but from the way the announcement reads, they will not be banned going forward.

Captains Club (Celebrity's Crown and Anchor Society equivalent) Happy Hour Crown and Anchor Society

I believe this changes that -- Read it again as it clearly states Pinnacles will have access.

I am inclined to agree that this announcement eases my mind to some extent. As others have said above, now that the decision is made and is consistent across all ships, the footnote for Lounge access no longer becomes an issue. Not Pinnacle, not in a suite == no Suite/Concierge lounge access. No longer any ambiguity or waiting until onboard to see if you have access or not.

We have one upcoming RCCL and two Celebrity cruises booked for next year. We are booked in suites for all three cruises. I have found that if I want Lounge access, I might as well book a suite.

When we used it, we always thought it was a little more quiet than the Diamond Lounge and had better service. We especially like it on Brilliance due to the nice small bar they had in the lounge.

Hot out of my email in-box from Royal Caribbean -

Good luck keeping it a secret. You should also give the dining room staff, especially your waiters, a heads up that it's a secret as they will have that information available. Also make sure your stateroom attendant knows. It might help to make a show of getting the suitcases out the last night of the first leg and have them go through the motions of packing their stuff in their bags.

I have seen alcohol free wine, brand name is Fre iirc, but not alcohol free gin. Did not even know they made an alcohol free gin. You can order most cocktails as mocktails, made without alcohol, at most bars. I say most because I do not believe they are available at the World Class bar.

He was on Reflection when we sailed her in December. Last report I heard was that he finally took his vacation and was home in Jamacia.

Is that the complete description? Good luck is all I can say.

I do not normally drink scotch but Cranston gave me a taste and it was too peaty for my taste.

USS Iowa - Still a beautiful site to behold.

If you go into your cruise Planner, click on this upgrade package and READ what it says there is absolutely no ambiguity at all about what is being purchased - "$9.99 per person per day"

I usually pass on breakfast potatoes. I have made a note to try it on Millie in April. I could see the waffle with the egg and a side of sliced ham.

I just checked and I am able to make dining reservations for both our upcoming cruises, 21 April and 5 November, on Millie via the Web site under Plan My Cruise.

If you are asking me -- no, I have not tried the potato waffle. Should I?
