If you mean that you will earn enough points on the first cruise to reach D+ then just stop by the LA's desk the first day of the new cruise to have them update your status.

Worked great for me at Christmas. CP Balcony

Cabins in the same category could also vary. The only way is to start searching videos of reviews with room numbers

No it won't. Wherever there is a jog and the cabins are not aligned the pattern changes. In this case You can tell by the symbols. The Astrick denotes a cabin for 4 and all cabins for 4 have the bed by the bath. from there you can start the pattern.

If the restaurant is open then the package can be used. Book your dining at any specialty restauirant as soon as you board, if you are a bit flexible then you should not have any issues.

This is standard, happens twice a year. Unfortunately you must add a leg or cancel one, no other options. You cannot start a cruise in one US port and end in a different port without visiting a distant foreign port and the nearest distant foreign port is in South America.

A quick visit with the concierge will get that corrected

It will all depend on who is manning the entrance to the WJ which can change week to week, some are more enthusiastic than others.

I'm likely driving, so it's not an issue, if by chance I do book flights they will be refundable.

Personally hoping that my inaugural on the Icon is oversold and some offers go out. Depending on the offer I could be tempted to take the credit and a free sailing

The aft facing balconies are considered obstructed.
