  1. Not everyone likes the Celebrity experience. Celebrity doesn't cater to kids and multi generational families like Royal does.
  2. Royal will definitely build smaller ships in the future. The only thing is that the smaller ships may not be as small as some would like them to be. Royal eventually will have its smallest at somewhere between 130k and 140k tons
  3. They absolutely did loses lot of people had years of experience however they have been building their staffing levels back-up over the past year. While their is a learning curve to these positions for most of them once staff have completed a full contract they will be pretty much up to speed.
  4. They have been doing that with every new ship built. As they build more large ships it actually gets easier for them as they have more ships and more staff to draw from.
  5. From what I have been told you can only do that in a double occupancy room. In a quad room the sofabed has to be pulled out so there is not enough space for a pack n play.
  6. Oasis and Allure have regular balcony cabins that sleep 5. There are also the ultraspacious categories on many ships that will hold 6 and have a lot more space but at a higher price.
  7. Well aware of that but she only has itineraries through to January 2025 in Miami.
  8. It was I believe an 8 course meal with beverage pairing. 2 seatings nightly, prices have not been announced. Expanding on the "Chef's Table" concept
  9. April 2025 at the furthest. Possibly only January 2025. Allure is scheduled until then so I think there may be another movement of ships at that time.
  10. You have a much better chance of having the ships moving to your desired ports than you do with this request.
  11. Anyone have any ideas on when Holland usually releases their 2025 itineraries. Specifically looking at the 50+ day Vancouver to San Diego in September 2025 that they have done the last couple of years. Thanks
  12. Yep, Too difficult to plan weekly itineraries from there but they can manage the one offs.
  13. We traveled in March and my wife's Canadian passport did not have 6 months left on it. No issues.
  14. They only stop in Vancouver when they do the repos to / From Hawaii to get around the PVSA.
  15. Based on how it worked for Icon, TA's have the webinar after bookings open
  16. Feb 2, 2025. Don't worrry, we will make sure to remind you closer to the time.😁
  17. Reveal of Utopia for travel agents. Release date should be right around that time.
  18. It is only the Delux (alcohol) where everyone has to purchase it. Buying ahead of time is cheaper. One drink at a time although most bars will allow you to get a water in addition to your drink.
  19. That is incorrect. I have had several clients where I have been able to book them in different staterooms on the same sailing. Royals systems, unlike other cruise lines do not pick it up. Here's one of the situations where this has been done. Family of 4 booking a cruise 2 years out. Won't know until closer to the date if 1 child can go or if both can go. If all 4 go they get 2 rooms, if 3 go then they get 1 room. The one room with the three of them has all the same people that are booked in the 2 rooms. One set oif bookings would be cancelled before final payment
  20. You can be booked on two cruises at the same time but you can't check in for both as mentioned above. You could quite possibly be charged the prevailing rate for the cheap casino cruise.
