chandom Posted May 17, 2017 Author #101 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Happen to slip into the Suite Lounge to grab some water. Looked like they were using it for a sales pitch to book the Royal Suite Class. It was invaded by a bunch of commoners!

renza Posted May 17, 2017 #103 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Which port did u dock at in San Juan? Pan Am or old San Juan. The rep told me at the Pam am dock but I was on allure last year and it was Old San Juan. Will be on harmony in 2 weeks Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rep told me at the Pam am dock but I was on allure last year and it was Old San Juan. Will be on harmony in 2 weeks Sent from my iPhone using Forums Old San Juan one, think the Pan Am one is only used for new voyages. If you look at Google maps, it is the one that looks like a giant "Y" with no buildings near it. Side tip, both ends of the "Y" let you enter. So keep an eye out for length of lines to enter the pier. Also, ID is needed for entry to the pier. Nice touch, ice water was available on the pier. For Sky Class and above they had a dedicated line on the pier (post ID check). Con, no dedicated security line. Sent from a mobile device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chandom Posted May 17, 2017 Author #105 Share Posted May 17, 2017 ...I've read that Raj is concierge in Suite Lounge. Hope he's still onboard in July. Haven't seen him since Independence several years ago, but he was one of my favs! Tell him I'm coming back! Just spoke with him and relayed your message. He'll be on in July. Said to send him an email if you want, HM02. Sent from a mobile device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chandom Posted May 18, 2017 Author #110 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Saw 1887, the ice show. Had to say it was amazing! This is coming from someone that can't stand ice skating in general. Love how the ice was used as scenery. Plus the show felt like it had a flow to it. Not just a hodgepodge of different sets. The bubble guy was interesting as well. Was something different, in a good way. Mixed bag, due to a good run in the casino I missed The Quest. Sent from a mobile device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you've seen many! What is Hideaway Heist? I saw on your entertainment post it is 40 minutes but can't find when or where it is. I'm thinking maybe a short aqua show..

TennisCaptain Posted May 18, 2017 #112 Share Posted May 18, 2017 For the cruisers who are boarding in the next few months. we received cancellation notices for MTD on our Sept 7 cruise. when we called our RCI agent who booked us on the last 3 cruises, she informed us they are going back to first and second seatings and booked us for first seating. Not positive of the last date of MTD, but she inferred it would be soon.. has anyone else received such an email? I checked on the main RCI site and someone else has indeed made comment they received same email. Stevie H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I booked Harmony for 7/15/17, I requested late traditional dining, and the Royal Caribbean C&A Pinnacle rep said they didn't have it available, he put me down for MTD with late waitlisted. I noticed in my reservation in the last week that it has changed to late traditional.(no email, but since I was waitlisted, maybe that's why.) I do have friends with MTD on Oasis for September cruises who have made dining reservations this week. I'm sure he'll let people know if he gets a change notice. He has just decided on having MTD for his future cruises, and he has many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clpainter2001 Posted May 18, 2017 #114 Share Posted May 18, 2017 We are on July 15th and we have MTD and I have reservations for each night booked. I like getting to pick my dinner time. Booked around our shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TennisCaptain Posted May 18, 2017 #115 Share Posted May 18, 2017 great.. then either we do not have the actual cruise date it is no longer effective correct or she did not give us accurate information and reason for our change. If you look at the RCI boards, there have been a few others with similar emails but their cruises are also later than summer. this is why these boards are so helpful thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Harmony booked for June 2018 and currently have the late dinner but was going to call my TA and change to MTD because others have posted the show times and it will really interfere with late dinner.

dory123 Posted May 18, 2017 #117 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Did you have any pre-cruise contact with Raj or any other suite lounge concierge?

chandom Posted May 18, 2017 Author #123 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) And the verdict is... First off, fries were cold and soggy in general. Nachos, not worth it. Chicken fingers, could have been warmer. But they had a nice crunch. Think the use a sliced chicken breast. Quesadilla, loved it! This was the chicken version. Was hot temperature wise and crispy. Not the least bit soggy. Plenty of cheese. Chicken wings (hot buffalo), crispy. Sauce had some heat to it, not mouth burning, slight sweetness. Burger, this was not your Windjammer burger! Very juicy and thick, was still warm. Might not have been Wagu, missing the caramelized onions. Still was delicious. Cheese fries, odd. Sauce tasted like it had nutmeg in it Bonus picture of the burger. Sent from a mobile device Edited May 18, 2017 by chandom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
