  1. Additional amenities. https://dlxffu6hwewxp.cloudfront.net/cas/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/18063159_CAS_MemberBonus_Amenity_List_v3.pdf
  2. Roll’em. Carryon only for me. Wife brings carryon and beach bag.
  3. Cruising in Ernest is part of the issue. But, the good part is Royal has additional small incentives at 340 and 525. Not much but better than the Celebrity climb to fame and fortune.
  4. Yes. many cruises to Alaska on Princess(lots), Royal(5+) , Celebrity(lots), Holland(2), Norwegian(1) All trips have been good to great. Yes, Princess does it the best, but I wouldn’t be afraid to take any line to Alaska. And we grew up in the NW.
  5. 1) You must really, really, really love Cozumel and Costa Maya 2) You must live on Galveston Island or let's say; Texas City 3) Pick your cruises and you can cruise for $ 120 per couple per night So, $ 120 X 700= $84,000 (less with the just about expired double points)
  6. MIAMI, June 01, 2010 – Royal Caribbean International today announced new enhancements to the cruise line’s Crown & Anchor Society that will better recognize and reward the cruise line’s loyal member guests. The new Crown & Anchor Society enhancements will begin rolling out on June 1, 2010, offering members the exclusive privilege to book their next cruise onboard and receive an onboard credit for their future sailing. Members also can apply their Crown & Anchor Society Savings Certificates and receive the onboard credit for their future booking, receive more individual attention and service from additional onboard Loyalty Staff aboard each ship, have priority notification of exclusive member specials, and exclusively receive added-value offers in the Crown & Anchor Society Ultimate Value Booklet. “We listened to our member guests and are launching program enhancements to reflect what they told us matter most to them,” said Betsy O’Rourke, senior vice president of Marketing, Royal Caribbean International. “The new exclusive benefits will add to those that members have enjoyed in the past and reflect Royal Caribbean’s commitment to recognize and reward our loyal members who cruise with us again and again. There has never been a better time to be a Crown & Anchor Society member, and there is more to come.” Crown & Anchor Society members will now have the exclusive privilege to reserve their next cruise while onboard a Royal Caribbean vacation. The new and exclusive Onboard Booking Bonus offers members the exclusive privilege to book a future cruise onboard and receive an onboard credit to spend on the future sailing, which can now also be used with either a Crown & Anchor Savings Certificate or a Balcony and Suite Discount (the latter applicable for Platinum, Diamond or Diamond Plus members), offering member guests great savings for their next cruise. Travel agent partners will continue to earn commission for onboard bookings. An additional Crown & Anchor Society Loyalty Staff member also has been appointed aboard each ship to offer more personalized service and deliver the Royal treatment to each member guest. The Loyalty Staff members can help answer member guests’ questions and help them reserve future cruises to take advantage of the new and enhanced vacation offers, available only to members of the Crown & Anchor Society. Crown & Anchor Society members also will notice the new program enhancements both at home and onboard. Members will continue to enjoy first-to-know priority notice and access to new developments, special events, and exclusive offers that reward members for their loyalty. Travel agent partners also will be notified simultaneously. Onboard, member guests will be recognized every time they advance to a new level; and enjoy new enhanced benefits in their Ultimate Value Booklet, filled with new onboard savings for beverages, internet packages, photo and logo merchandise, supplementing classic favorites such as casino and spa discounts, to name a few. For more information and a new webisode about the loyalty program and its members, please visit www.RoyalCaribbean.com/CrownandAnchor.
  7. Please Note: Night Train Express is red "wine".
  8. I have no idea about the price of cartons of cigarettes on a ship, but I think the limit is one carton per passenger... Might i suggest you stop at 7-11 on the way home and buy him a couple cartons and tell him they cost $50 per carton. Yes, you will be stuck bringing back cigarettes every cruise.
  9. We cruise at times with a couple from St Croix and a number of folks from Vancouver, BC, if they got off early, it would save them a lot of hassle.
  10. Disembark in the morning and help them through the process.
  11. Have you checked rollcalls? Have you check the app?
  12. How did you get the information? Additional info: With Celebrity and parent company Royal Caribbean, a refund is not a slam dunk. "We need to review situations of missed ports on a case-by-case basis, and base our decision on whether or not the port must be bypassed due to a weather-related problem (an 'act of God' nature), or a mechanical problem onboard the ship (which naturally becomes more the cruise line's responsibility)," Celebrity spokeswoman Elizabeth Jakeway said by e-mail. "After we've assessed the situation fully, we decide what the appropriate measures are -- which can vary from an onboard credit to complimentary beverages to an amenity of some kind." So with some lines, if the ship misses a stop because of weather (or some other "act of God"), the money you gave the cruise line to pay the port is gone, even if the ship never touched that port. On a ship the size of Royal Caribbean's 3,600-passenger Freedom of the Seas, which likely pays some of the highest port fees there are, the company could, conservatively, collect $50,000 in fees for one port and neither pay it to the port nor refund it.
  13. There are a limited amount of staterooms above the pool deck. 😀
  14. The book says the Diamond Concierge on the Explorer is... Kumar Kunchipudi But the book isn't always right.
  15. Dr Google is like Dr feel good. Gives you what you need. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/prohibited-items-onboard-policy
  16. I’m 1 for 3 attempts on this. I haven’t tried many times. The one was on the Navigator
