Can't say I am not disappointed if it is only Quantum and Oasis Class ships included... There has been a lot of hype and if it is only on 6 ships, I think RCI are going to disappoint a lot of people.

Possibly, but we mainly sail on the Oasis class in a SLS so you won't hear me complain.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait to learn about the "in stateroom bedroom service". Sounds interesting, doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMOMOM Posted August 10, 2015 #1057 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Interesting! I just got a 'port survey' based on our last cruise which was in the Med (Barcelona, Rome and Naples) but they did give other options for input, i.e. what other areas and ports are you interested in, etc. Would be nice to get some newer ports in the Caribbean ... especially for Oasis Class ships as we love the ships, but love something different regarding the ports. We'll see if anything changes. We're not booked for anything right now, but since we usually take advantage of sales and last minute bookings, as well as always book at JR suite, who knows! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people posting on here have been talking about their Freedom/Voyager/Radiance class cruises... If an Oasis class sailed out of Southampton, I would be on it practically permanently. However, with them taking away the Quantum class and replacing it with 2 old ships next year, it is a disappointment. I can't always travel to the US and the Med itineraries out of Barcelona/Rome on Allure this summer are repetitive and uninteresting... not to mention $$$$. At least with the Oasis class itineraries out of Florida they are introducing a couple of new ports, which changes up the usual Eastern/Western.

nelly55 Posted August 10, 2015 #1060 Share Posted August 10, 2015 As long as they don't take away any benefits from GS on other classes before next September(specifically reserved pool seating and breakfast in chops) we'll be happy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloatMe Posted August 10, 2015 #1061 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Nice to see that they are including JS cabins in this program. They included JS. My guess is they will get priority boarding, double cruise points, and a bathrobe[emoji53] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMOMOM Posted August 10, 2015 #1062 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Sure is! Especially since that's what you normally book! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADflyer Posted August 10, 2015 #1063 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Nice to see that they are including JS cabins in this program. Also very happy that JS are now actually suites. Glad to see GS grouped with OS though as this adds great potential value. I am just booked in the wrong order on Harmony as I have a GS in June 2016 and then a JS in October 2016. It might be tough to 'downgrade' after experiencing these new enhancements. Waiting to read the fine print on the new program as I wonder if suite perks will stay at suite booked or upgrade to suite assigned in the case of an upgrade, paid or not?

I was sort of afraid that GS would get downgraded a bit because it is kid of the "lowest" full suite category, but it doesn't seem that way. Majority of the time I can handle the cost of a GS, but really wouldn't want to pay anymore. I'm going to guess that the SkyClass will have perks similar to the current perks, with some new additions such as the internet and maybe drinks. The StarClass will have everything. SeaClass probably wont have much, but maybe they'll add some things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe will see something posted after presentation at event in vegas. I just lucked into finding out... the girl had just gotten email from corporate this morning, she said email was sent saturday, but she didnt work weekends... so very new info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnh Posted August 10, 2015 #1069 Share Posted August 10, 2015 So excited I booked the Aqua Suite 2 bedroom on Harmony for my GD's senior year cruise....I got the 2 bedroom so she could invite up to 3 friends (they will need to pay for their portion of the cruise....the 3rd + prices were not bad under the special I booked!)

FloatMe Posted August 10, 2015 #1070 Share Posted August 10, 2015 You forgot Upgraded Bathroom Amenities and In-suite Coffee & Tea.[emoji14] In deed I did! And lest we forget the silver sea pass. All my sarcasm aside, I do hope they add just a little for the JS passengers. To be included in the reserved pool deck seating would be enough for me.

I would love reserved theater seating for JS (just on O and Q Class), but I don't know if thats possible with the amount of seats that would need to be reserved. Priority debarkation would be nice too. I'd pay the extra money for those things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
