However, working with the Royal website can lead to that condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Cruizers Posted July 1, 2019 #31 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Haven't used the Online check In since 2017, was there an option if say your room guest will use their own acct. I believe she plans to do her own online check in for our March cruise, I wouldn't want to have to leave the other persons blank unless i did all the check in for both of us.

custompcsys Posted July 1, 2019 Author #34 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Ok, I finally couldn't take it any more and called RCI. According to the rep I spoke to, there has been a very recent update to the app and the website software that now requires credit card information to complete the online check-in (thus the wording at the top of the page that says guests who don't complete the credit card info must check in at the port). She was not aware of it and had to contact her support team to find out why I wasn't getting that option. Cash accounts have to be set up at the pier, she can't even make the change on her end any more. So apparently now if you want to check in online you have to give them credit card info. Not sure if the RCI call-in center is like the Princess call-in center, but with Princess you could call 5 times get 5 different reps and 5 different answers. For what it's worth it didn't sound like I got the usual offshore call-in center this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Cruizers Posted July 1, 2019 #37 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Sounds like I will need to get daughter information and I do the Online check in for the both of us or I select her name on the acct and change once we check in, probably easiest way. Is anything different on this if doing consecutive or b2b. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shall see if this is reported by others.Not seeing that on my end. Just checked in this morning. If I go back and edit my info, it still gives the option for cash, or no onboard account.The biggest change I saw from a year ago, I was not asked for pre- or post-cruise travel info.

custompcsys Posted July 1, 2019 Author #44 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Well, just for yucks and giggles I tried doing the edit with Internet Explorer (I was using Chrome when I checked in the first time) and there big as life was the screen just like PCWalton had posted. Clicked on the option for cash and finished the check-in for myself and my wife. So basically their website is coded to IE and won't handle cross-browser issues. As a software consultant I'm kind of shocked at their IT people, that's a huge no-no these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guarantee you, some will report the website works best with IE, some will say Firefox, some will say Chrome. I think it's a very poorly programmed website, and this won't be the last time you have problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to think I'm not losing my mind 🙂 Just did Harmony for August, I was able to set up cash account However, I am unable to check in for Empress in 11 days. Guess I should have done that yesterday instead of chasing beverage packages. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
