How is the Majesty?

I would highly suggest taking something like a "Hug-a-Plug" (look on Amazon).  It is a three pronged splitter.  Best $8 gadget we've taken on a cruise, other than the towel clips.  Our two prong items would NOT stay plugged in.  Yes, I know, bend the plugs.  But, I don't like doing that with my chargers, etc.  The Hug-a-Plug stayed in nicely and gave us an extra plug.  Probably going our cruise box permanently.  

I really appreciate this recommendation!  I placed my Amazon order this morning.  Purchased a set of four, since we have three cabins booked.  🙂

We have never cruised RCCL, and we are going on a family reunion cruise on Majesty of the Seas in June 2020. 

Just realize that Majesty is not really indicative of the rest of the fleet.

Yes, I understand that, and I've reminded lots of the relatives of that, too.  But it's the RCCL ship leaving from New Orleans on a date that worked for everyone, and that's the port everyone can drive to from Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas and Texas, so Majesty of the Seas is our only option.

Please tell me more about Compass Deli. Are all of the sandwiches pre-made, or can you make requests?  At the very least, are the paninis made to order?  Any idea of the hours it is open?

 

We have never cruised RCCL, and we are going on a family reunion cruise on Majesty of the Seas in June 2020.  I'm trying to read as much as I can ahead of time, because I know that my elderly parents will be expecting me to answer their many questions.

 

Thank you!

 

There are some pre-made cold sandwiches (can't recall if they made any cold sandwiches to order, but I think some were) but paninis  are made to order. DW had their Cuban sandwich when we went and she loves a good Cuban. Not the best she's ever had (which is a high bar as there's an amazing Cuban sandwich shop here) but a solid Cuban. The famous Roast Beef on Weck shows up on their menu from time to time and I had it and wasn't disappointed. There's also a small salad bar and some soup options. I think the hours were from lunch until dinner (sorry I'm not more precise I don't have my Cruise Compasses from that cruise uploaded to my Google Drive) - so like 11:30 to 6:00 I'd think.

We were just off the Majesty for the first time in late August. I agree that the Schooner Bar piano player, Eric, was excellent! And this Schooner Bar seemed larger and more light-filled than those on other ships. We were happy we chose a room on Deck 5 so that we were close to the Schooner Bar and casino and a quick walk to the Main Dining Room. We'd happily sail on Majesty again!
