Transferring booking to TA
Ken at the beach replied to dogsdogs's topic in Royal Caribbean International
FYI You can transfer the next cruise certificate over and book at regular rates. After that you can transfer it to the group and have it repriced to the group rate. The booking will still stay non refundable but you keep the next cruise OBC and of course the $200 you initially paid for the deposit although you will have to increase the deposit to the full deposit amount. Group bookings do not allow for the reduced deposit amounts and must be increased. -

It's true -
Wow, she has been running me so ragged getting this, getting that doing this, that I haven't even had time to post an update on here. So far behind in this thread that I doubt I'll be able to catch up. Just kidding. She is actually doing amazing and will be returning back to work next week if all goes well at her Dr's appointment tomorrow. The last time she was there he said that she could start putting weight on it and after a couple days she was walking without crutches...just the air cast. She has actually felt guilty about taking the time off but there is a big difference between one or 2 thousand steps a day with lots of rest during the day and doing 10 to 12 thousand steps a day without a break and having to move at a quicker pace. Busy here having our backyard redone....just waiting for a dry day now for the polymeric sand and they are done. Photos once it's all complete.

Are ships back to 100% capacity?
Ken at the beach replied to gizbug's topic in Royal Caribbean International
100% capacity is based on double occupancy. Prior to the shutdown Royal was closer to 115% capacity -
Transferring booking to TA
Ken at the beach replied to dogsdogs's topic in Royal Caribbean International
If your TA booked the cruise you are sailing on it will go directly to them. If you booked yourself then it will go to you and you can transfer it to them. I personally do not find the Next cruise certificates unless you are in a suite to be of value as they are non refundable and your TA most likely has cheaper refundable group rates with early booking OBC that offsets the Next cruise OBC. -
Same answer as you received on our roll call yesterday

Oasis of the Seas - Suites
Ken at the beach replied to wezie's topic in Royal Caribbean International
It depends on what suite you are assigned. 99% of the time you will get a Junior Suite which really only gets you a bigger room. Double points and dinners at Coastsl Kitchen space permitting. -

Ken at the beach replied to dogsdogs's topic in Royal Caribbean International
It's now 30 days but as stated above it cannot be transferred if paid in full. -
Booking multiple cabins with Next Cruise
Ken at the beach replied to cruiselvr04's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Book with a fake 3rd name. Much easier. Name changes are easy and can be done up to 48 hours prior to sailing. -
Wait times have greatly improved, unfortunately the new reps they hired to reduce the wait times wont have a clue what a Diamond is.

All 5 of my cruises since sailing has resumed have posted in 5 or 6 days

Did you set this up in advance as a group. You can't do it after the fact. Its based on cruise fare which is less than the cruise fare you see published. The total fare is made up of cruise fare, non comissionable cruise fare and taxes. The average non comissionable fare is about $250 per person. If the total cabin cost was $2000. Subtract taxes (I'll use $150pp) then subtract non comissionable cruise fare (use $250pp). This leaves cruise fare of $600 per person. Your rebate would be based on the average cruise fare of the 8 rooms divided by 2 as you get 1 persons cruise fare for every 8 rooms.
