I paid in order to pick our seats. About 2 weeks ago, I got flight change details, and Special instructions that stated: as a result of this change, unless mentioned above, any seats selected in the original booking may not be confirmed for the changed flight. If you reserved a paid seat, please contact the airline to ensure it is transferred to your new flight. This has never happened to us before (not that we fly very often). There's been a lot going on around here and I never did get around to checking. Can I do this online, or do I have to call JetBlue by phone? Good luck getting someone on the phone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is astounding to me that a company worth over 50 billion dollars can't even handle simple IT issues. I just received an email that my UDP has been cancelled. I certainly didn't cancel it. The cruise planner is closed so I can't repurchase it, I board the ship in about 36 hours... What a joke! This is exactly what you don't want to have to deal with immediately after boarding the ship. I emailed the suite concierge so we'll see if he can sort this but C'mon... How hard can some of this very simple stuff be. LOL So the suite concierge says that because of the cabin upgrade via RoyalUp the $200 OBC that I used to pay for part of the UDP dropped off. Of course this is nonsense. Royalup has nothing to do with any OBC. It have and should have no impact on it at all. He's dealing with shoreside now.

Not at all... happy to (attempt to) help!!! Technology is amazing, but it is NOT always user-friendly. (Kinda like cruising.... look at how much we know (and take for granted) about cruising now compared to our very first cruise! If nobody ever shows you or explains anything, how are you supposed to find out???) I don't remember, what app are you using to send messages? Is it the Android/Google "Messages" app, or something built into your phone by the manufacturer (like Samsung) or your carrier (like Verizon)? If you're using just the Google Messages app, you may need to tell it to use MMS if it can't use RCS. Settings Apps Messages Notifications... scroll to bottom Additional settings in the app RCS chats... scroll to Automatically resend as text (SMS/MMS) and turn it on Depending on the software version your phone is using, there may be different ways to get to that point. If the way I listed above isn't working (you don't have the same options to select), try just searching for MMS or RCS when you're in the settings... if it gives you an option for RCS chats, look in there. My phone screen cracked/shattered the second day into my 12 days of cruising (I had JUST put a new screen protector on it, but it fell and landed in some decorative rocks in the Solarium, and a sharp rock hit the corner of the glass in the 1mm space between the case and the screen protector!). I got home last night and my newly ordered phone was here waiting for me. (I had been thinking about replacing my 4yo phone with this new model, but just hadn't pulled the trigger yet... my phone made the decision for me!) I spent much of last night and most of this morning trying to get the settings all tweaked the way I want them, and that's even with the new phone automatically transferring EVERYTHING over for me. The new phone even put all my icons for my apps in the exact same places on the exact same screens for me, but I'm STILL trying to get everything tweaked the way I want it. Technology was a lot simpler when we just had flip phones.... but it's a lot more useful now that it's more complicated! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunshine3601 Posted 23 hours ago #131356 Share Posted 23 hours ago We have had a sunny but a little chilly weather this weekend. Round 1 of leaves started yesterday. Most of the ones mulched & bagged came from neighbors. Our large maple tree has barely changed color yet. I was changing over closets for winter and cleaned out 10 large trash bags for purple heart donations (pick up tomorrow). I was on a roll and cleaned out blankets (how many do you really need), coats, sweatshirts, handbags, clothes (including some mens and womens business suits that will never be worn again), etc etc. I am now pleased with the re-organization of our closets while helping those in need. I have one large bag of towels, bath rugs and small throw blankets that I will drop off at a local pet shelter. I didn't get any pictures but our cats were a Big Help😂 5 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had read somewhere that the system does this if you add or delete something from the cruise planner very close to the cruise involving OBC......but that should not be the excuse for terrible IT. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted 19 hours ago #131366 Share Posted 19 hours ago We have been doing that acorn and leaf battle for a month now. At least our acorns are almost done now. Just bought 100 bags yesterday to bag leaves tomorrow. Yesterday was cold and windy at the football field. Grandson’s team was in the championship game, after going undefeated all season. He had a good game and hooked up with his favorite receiver for a couple TD passes. They won the game and were all awarded championship rings. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the Royalup actually cost you $200 more than you though. Really bush league for RCI to not contact you to see how you wanted to proceed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the fields have already been harvested, what's the harm in taking a sample from one of those that they missed?? Behaved myself as well. Neat seeing it though. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
