Me Dumb Me Seasick Posted March 31, 2016 #451 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I'll add my stats to this as well. I've never put any money towards the game. PC MyVegas: 495 Mobile MyVegas: 185 Blackjack: 91 Konami: 52 I have had a chance at one 5 Day comped cruise and that was it. The 7 Day Oasis never showed up for me, and neither did any of the free cruises from yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richs52 Posted March 31, 2016 #452 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Hi All - I was fortunate enough to snag one of the 4-night awards on the Independence, Ocean View cabin with a sailing date of 4/14/16. It was 500,000 gold coins to get the award. When I originally called to make my reservation, the rep informed me that Ocean view rooms were sold out. Actually, the only thing available on the ship at that time were suites. Apparently, accommodating passengers from the the cancelled Empress sailings have really filled most Royal ships during this time period. The rep apologized and said nothing could be done, and that I should request a refund of my coins. I knew the award could be redeemed until 3/31, so I was persistent about calling back a few times a day to see if availability changed. Luckily on Monday, Royal reps got an email allowing them to book those with unavailable MyVegas awards on alternative ships/sailings. I was able to book the 4/14/16 Brilliance of the Seas out of Tampa. Works for me since Tampa is only an hour away and Fort Lauderdale is 3. Total for one person sailing solo was $121 for taxes, port fees and gratuities. Since it is booked through Royal's casino program it includes free drinks in the casino bar. I'm thrilled with how this worked out. I haven't been on a Royal ship since 2010, and am really looking forward to this getaway thanks to Myvegas. For those that are curious, I am level 204. I only play the Facebook game, and have been accumulating coins for about three years now. I bought I small amount of chips in the beginning, but have not since then. Just thought I'd share my experience. Keep spinning those slots folks! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LTyler Posted April 1, 2016 #453 Share Posted April 1, 2016 The rewards refreshed today and one of the free Oasis sailings became available. It was only one sailing, April 9 for 2 in a Balcony. It includes drinks in the Casino. We paid a total of $418 USD - that was just the tips & gratuity. Can't wait! Hi the Oasis reward opened up again I got it!!!! :):):) No D1's left but got a D6 they didn't mention free drinks in casino though wonder how you go about getting them!!??

CRUISEFAN0001 Posted April 1, 2016 #456 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Glad to see things opening up again for the Royal Caribbean offers... ...but so far...they are pretty much leftover cabins for immediate departure cruises (within a short time period), as well as the OBC and casino perks. Nothing all that compelling...but things good improve over time...offers were much better a few months back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisequeen4ever Posted April 1, 2016 #459 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Are they really free? I thought they just give you a "special" rate. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisequeen4ever Posted April 2, 2016 #461 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Wow so reading more of this thread, it's interesting that we could all potentially be receiving different offers! I didn't think that was possible. I liked when you could get straight OBC or a Beverage Package on any booked cruise.

Rare SpainAlien Posted April 2, 2016 #462 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Yes, I have previously booked 2 cruises at 35% off and 1 at 50% off. If it hadn't been for My Vegas I would have stayed with NCL Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it hadn't been for My Vegas I would have stayed with NCL Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk I know. We had enough for the 50% off since October but there were not any cruises available to use it on in 2016. Now all we have are a few offers. No free cruises or 50% off on my screen. Just OBC.

Rare cruisequeen4ever Posted April 2, 2016 #465 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Is the comp stateroom free for 2 passengers or just 1?

For the 7 days Oasis cruise I paid $418.12 USD. $236.82 USD was the taxes/fees and $181.30 USD for the gratuities.

OrlandoSingleCruiser Posted April 3, 2016 #470 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I had the comp 7 day cruise on the Oasis on my rewards up until a few days ago and now it's gone. It was only for the April 9th sailing though. Is that what you guys all saw? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poffles Posted April 3, 2016 #471 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Is the comp stateroom free for 2 passengers or just 1? If you have to pay for the second passenger, does anyone know how much the rate is? Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app It appears that the comp "stateroom" ones may be for two but there are ones that are worded differently and say comp "4 day" or comp "5 day" and I have a feeling they are for one person and not for the stateroom like the 7 day comp "balcony" some here have snagged. Would love to hear from someone that has booked one of these to be sure. It would also be nice to know if you could get two of the 4 or 5 day ones and put them together to make the trip longer ... not sure if they limit using two rewards for similar thing so close together. Guess when I see something I really want to grab I'll have to call to be sure. Wording on the rewards can be tricky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmandaKaye79 Posted April 6, 2016 #472 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Had a 4 night comp show up today. It was for explorer of the seas mid-May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUISEFAN0001 Posted April 6, 2016 #473 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Things are starting to open up slightly...but...most of the offers are simply leftovers for near-term cruises. For those further out there on the calendar...they are offering OBC and some form of discount (which may be available elsewhere. We'll have to see how this evolves.

LUCINDA574 Posted April 7, 2016 #474 Share Posted April 7, 2016 does anyone know when they usually update? would love to score a free cruise, have close to a million lps. One of the OBC ones dates look good, but I have a feeling the discount doesnt amount to much more than posted rates... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got 1.4 million points just waiting to be used on the right cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
