Rare niksmom630 Posted March 1, 2018 Author #276 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Is the Flip Flop Workshop new? I don't recall this from our Allure cruise, but it's been a few years. This would be a must have souvenir for my wife and daughters. I think so...definitely wasn’t here the last time we were on Allure.

wolfganghowell Posted March 1, 2018 #277 Share Posted March 1, 2018 UTH - Ultimate Texas Hold Em. All you have to do is beat the dealer so you don't have to have a poker face. :) Ferrington - sorry, the $5 tables were on Liberty. I think you're right - Oasis keeps the tables higher. Although I seem to recall one $5 roulette table and one $5 3 card table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillychick Posted March 1, 2018 #278 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Wow, that filet really does look bad. So sorry that you paid extra for that (even if a bogo) . Guess you confirmed my plan not to eat at Chops while on board. Really enjoying following you this week! Thanks again and keep up the great work! Enjoy the rest of your cruise! The Bogo. Is there a status you need to get one for the speciality restaurants? I’m Diamond getting REAL close to Plus.

Rare niksmom630 Posted March 1, 2018 Author #279 Share Posted March 1, 2018 No boot today? How is your foot doing? I’ve been ditching the boot except for “travel” days, as was approved by my doc.... it doesn’t work well in sand....[emoji38] although that may be periscope worthy for our beach day tomorrow at Nachi.... I’m getting around — it just takes me a lot longer [emoji124]*♀️ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gailforce2000 Posted March 2, 2018 #280 Share Posted March 2, 2018 It looks like you’re getting sunny weather can you tell me what the temperature has been like and did you get any rain or high winds. We are going April 8 hoping to have nice weather like you seem to be having enjoy the rest of your cruise Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SI Cruiser Posted March 2, 2018 #282 Share Posted March 2, 2018 niksmom- Oh no! I feel your pain. Last cruise the 3 card table was either empty or completely full. So I played UTH - that's kind of replaced it in our house. More strategy - bigger bank. :eek: I think they play with the minimums based on players. Same cruise, it started as $10 and about 3 days in, changed to $5 because the tables were so empty. Andrew, I'm ready to follow along!! Have you dried out from the 4 Headed monster cruise? ;) MGM Grand runs the casino and sets the table minimums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimeToGetNauti Posted March 2, 2018 #291 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Wow that is a lot of ambulances. I wonder if something happened and not just an isolated incident. Stay safe in Mexico. I just read about that advisory somewhere else today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTour Posted March 2, 2018 #292 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Quick question if you are using it - what features does the RoyalCarriabbean app offer on Allure? (on Anthem the app let you message between phones on the ship with just the wifi and view your personal schedule etc ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTour Posted March 2, 2018 #295 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Do you know if the excursion cancellation affects all tours or just the public ferries? We have one booked in a couple of weeks to Tulum which I understand uses a private ferry .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(on Anthem the app let you message between phones on the ship with just the wifi and view your personal schedule etc ) Nothing more than a glorified compass really. Here are a few screen shots. You can access the planner by day, see restaurants and menus, as well as hours. You choose the ship and sailing date.... ours was available a few weeks out....Where the Royal IQ App has all your personal reservations, times, and details associated with you actual reservations, this just shows certain events by day, but not even all. I found it helpful precruise to look at menus and times, but haven’t used it on the ship at all Also, some of the times weren’t accurate either..... I was happy to see that for my comfort and convenience, the rest rooms were open 24 hours a day 🤣 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there were RCI tours affected because I heard people grumbling about it in the elevator...someone in particular had a dolphin swim/encounter cancelled I believe, because the transportation was by ferry.....

Midwestgal Posted March 3, 2018 #299 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Love the Allure. I’m curious are the Freedom class somewhere comparable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plumbjim Posted March 3, 2018 #300 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Thanks for all the info and pics!!! Really appreciate it. Going on the Allure on July 8th sailing. Loyal Carnival cruisers, but I felt it was a time for a change. Going to Alaska in June on Ruby Princess, and then to Allure. Went on Sovereign of the Seas in another lifetime, so I will consider this my 1st RCCL cruise. I am staying at the FT Lauderdale Hilton Marina. What floor in the tower is the minimum to get on to be above the bridge to see the port? Is there anything to worry about, been seeing lots of not so good reviews of the hotel? Someone posted that MGM runs the casino. Can you use your MLife card onboard? Can't wait to be there!!! Thank you for everything!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
