Rare allisonb22 Posted August 6, 2021 #51 Share Posted August 6, 2021 does anyone know when we will find out if we are selected? and do we get notice either way- even if we are not chosen? i obviously have a preference which sailing i would like to do- do they give you any kind of choice? i will happily take any of them, just wondering for those who have sailed the test cruises.

long4acruise Posted August 6, 2021 #55 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Typical RC as this could have been handled a little better. Why not ask the volunteer to checkoff which test cruise(s) one is interested in or preferences on a 1-2-3 order? The Mariner test is less than a week away and the outbound flights from my area for that entire week are unusually pricey; the return flight is reasonable. I'm interested in the 4N Liberty or the 6N Oasis primarily. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare perfect match Posted August 6, 2021 #57 Share Posted August 6, 2021 (edited) Signed us up! 🤞🏻 We’re hoping to get on Mariner because it’s close to home! 🛳 Anyone else unable to react to posts in this thread? Works for me everywhere else but this thread. 🤔 Edited August 6, 2021 by perfect match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the "selection committee" will look at one's geographical location (address) and select one for a nearby cruise and if one can be selected for more than one test cruise since no dates overlap as of yet.

Rare little britain Posted August 6, 2021 #59 Share Posted August 6, 2021 (edited) 6 hours ago, HicksRA said: I’m skeptical. The email comes from everbridge.net. I don’t think this is sponsored by RCI. Clickbait to get info? All mails I’ve received from RCI when there has been an itinerary change and you have to click to confirm you’ve received the info come from Everbridge. Shame they didn’t edit the distribution list to exclude all those outside the USA who aren’t eligible.

vintagegarage Posted August 6, 2021 #65 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I received the same email and got up early this morning to enter my information. I got as far as the choice of sailings screen and would have chosen Mariner of the Seas on August 11, but if all goes as planned, I should be on the Carnival Magic that day, in or around Bimini... drat. September 18, I should be on MSC Divina's first cruise that I have already booked, double drat! New Jersey is a bit far for me to drive.. tripple drat! .. I bailed out of the contest at that point and didn't complete my entry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
