  1. Thanks for the update. Looked like it was a chartervthr way it was listed in the booking system. @John&LaLa getting her ready for you.
  2. You know that a JS is not as full suite and so do I, there are many that don't and get them confused with the full suite
  3. Full deposit amounts for full suites for 6 to 9 day cruises are $250pp. Full deposit amounts for full suites for 10+ day cruises are $450pp You were charged the correct amount.
  4. Not saying that at all. Just clarifying for anyone reading this booking a suite that they would have to pay the full deposit amount.
  5. Junior suites are not considered full suites and are not subject to increased deposit amounts through next cruise.
  6. Yes TA's have access to view all excursions and other cruise planner items for most ships. They cannot purchase these for the guest but can view only.
  7. Refunds are very quick recently. Even WC refunds of over 200k have been less than a week.
  8. Next cruise gets a reduced deposit. If you don't book at next cruise then sailings 10+ days are $450pp 6-9 are $250pp 5 and under are $100pp
  9. Thanks, no Vikki though. It's my son Toby and I. While I can work anywhere Vikki is not as fortunate and cannot take time off during the school year being a teacher. Taking Toby along was the only thing that kept me out of the doghouse
  10. I just bought is for $22.99. Worked out to be about $80 more than what I had paid for a 2 device internet package. That I can live with..certainly not $30+
  11. Thanks, luckily that did not lead to a lot of young gentleman callers through her teen years...made dads life much easier. I had hoped she would be able to join us for Bella 2.0 as she would have fit right in with all of the people that Debbie will be pushing home at the end of the night and would have been a lot of fun (not sure if you saw some of my posts from the Allure Inaugural where she kept up with me in the drink count..we ended the day at 16) but she will be in her final year of teachers college and doing her work placements so won't be able to get the time off. Not sue about my son either as he will have graduated and will be in his first year at a new job (hopefully) and time off will be limited.
  12. You will not be allowed to put an underage child across the hall in one of those rooms. There are some in the aft section of the ship where the room is actually across the hall
  13. Passports for Canadian Citizens travelling to the US only need to be valid for the length of their stay. https://travel.gc.ca/destinations/united-states Travel by air Canadian citizens travelling by air to the United States must present one of the following documents: a passport, which must be valid for the duration of their stay a valid NEXUS card, used at self-serve kiosks at designated airports This requirement applies to all Canadian citizens, including children, travelling by air to or even just transiting through the United States.
  14. That she does. This is the only picture I have on my phone, it's our last litter that we fostered, she has 2 of the 6 or 7 we had.
  15. That is what I thought as well however Sarah was told by the previous owner that she is a Turkish Angora and Siamese cross.. First night was a good night. Sarah slept and so did Evie. I jokingly said to Vikki maybe the cat is a real night cat and up all night constantly talking and pestering which would be difficult as Sarah is in a studio apartment.
  16. I found what I was looking for. On your booking confirmation that goes out to every passenger who books it clearly states recommended. Not every passenger goes to the website to check for information. With the booking confirmation every passenger is being given the information required by the cruise line.
  17. You are assuming that what is written in their FAQ's is policy. It's not. It's a CYA blanket statement so they don't need to go through every potential variation and continuously update their website as other countries policies change. Look on pretty much every TA's invoice and you will see the same thing. What is written on the invoice that is personslized to every guest with the details of their booking and a link to yje guest contract certainly takes precedence over a blanket statement in a FAQ's section.
  18. As others have said. It won't be an issue. I am surprised and yet not surprised tgatbyouvwete told what you were told. Any cruise planner items are ties to the cabin and guest number for that cabin and not the guest themselves. Even changing passenger 1 to passenger 2 will cause excursions and purchases to be in the wrong person's name. Normally it wouldn't matter except when drink packages are involved and especidllybif it involves a minor.
  19. I would 100% take what is written on your booking invoice as policy as opposed to what is written in general terms in an FAQ section of the website.
  20. This is taken directly off of Royal Caribbean's invoice for a cruise that was booked today. Note the use of the word "recommend"
  21. I just looked and they have changed the language in their policy from what it was in January. At the time I was looking it definitely stated recommended as we knew that my wife's passport expired. We were even able to check in on the app using her passport. I suspect that the language changed with the introduction of the new cruise contract that was just released.
  22. They recommend but not require. Even for non us citizens it is not required. We flew and sailed last month and my wife's passport expires in 5 months.
  23. Myth. There are only a very few countries that actually have that requirement but because of that everyone involved in travel lists recommending that your passport be valid for 6 months as a CYA. If you look at Roysls site it says recommends and not requires. We flew and sailed this past March and my wife's expired 5 months from the date we sailed.
