Although I still give extra at the end of the cruise, I tip each time someone brings me a drink. Whether D+ voucher or casino Prime, I always throw in a couple bucks. That's me, but I don't judge otherwise.

We started cruising in 1990 on the Empress of the Seas and have been hooked ever since. As you do, we love to eat but still stay reasonably thin......which to me means 10-15 pounds over weight. lol! As we got older, we went from constant pool time to constant casino time. 😉 Anyway, I look forward to cruising with you one day and toasting to our good fortunes. Bill

Same with our nine post pandemic cruises. Asked every time......this is at PC

So, the name of the game is to keep checking your points during the week with the Casino Host. Then check out the offers. My DS liked the 7 night Wonder so he played till he got the 4000 points. Of course he kept playing after that cause he was winning. 😁 Then, you book that cruise with Next Cruise, make the small deposit, then call the Casino folks once you get back home and give them your offer number and reservation number. Done! We always book a time with Next Cruise on the first day for the last day. Times book up more toward the middle to end of the week.

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. You book a next cruise booking while on board, make the small deposit, then when you're back at shore you call the casino folks and give them the info. You're correct about the NC agents not touching casino comps, but they do realize that you'll use your certs for the cruise you're booking on board.

Next cruise bonus is if you booked another cruise while on board you would get that also. My DS25 got $500 off certificate but if he booked Next Cruise while still on board he would get a Balcony on the Wonder and $500 free play. (That was one of the many choices he had) Yep, he booked it while we were still on board. 🙂

The more bathrooms the better. 🙂

All three of us receive new offers every month. We used the offer to book the Wonder on Oct 1st and the Allure on 12/4. Neither cruise cost us more than port fees & taxes and all three of us booked our own cabins. (DW, DS25 & myself) Two balconies and an OV with freeplay. Haven't booked a cruise without an offer in at least five years. We're all three Prime.......

What drinks are available in the suites lounge?

They're sailing Navigator, no Coastal Kitchen. -
When you get onboard.

Jamie's is our embark day lunch every cruise for the three of us! We start with the plank, then get three apps, share two pasta's and all three get the burgers. Trust me, they want you to eat! 🙂 PS......garlic bread is the bomb! Gotta get those for sure!

Started cruising in 1990, been on over 90, and I would think things are better now than before. It used to be a joke, prior to the service charge, on how many passengers would be in the dining room the last night of the cruise. That's when the envelopes would be passed out to the crew, and half the dining room would be empty. I guess it's the old way of what is now, calling or stopping at guest services to remove auto gratuities. Ugh.

Yes, before 3/31/24

TYMAN replied to steve ch's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Thanks for your response. Yes, we've done it many times before and never had an issue getting the charge returned as OBC. Happy Sailing! -
Unlimited Dining and Boarding Day Lunch

Thanks for your input. Since I've done it before and have gotten OBC, we'll just go with that. -
Unlimited Dining and Boarding Day Lunch
TYMAN replied to steve ch's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We have the UDP for the Wonder later this year and booked (and paid) for Giovanni's for lunch on boarding day. My guess is they will give me OBC for the $$ I paid for the lunch. I just wanted to make sure we had a reservation since that's our normal routine. -
Club Royale and Annual Cruise Voucher
TYMAN replied to firsttimedisn's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Usually by the second week of April.....some times a week or so later. We'll be using our two certificates for a Wonder cruise we have booked for October.
