Great I was worried no one was on this week, thanks for posting. Everyone have a great trip. If anyone is in a suite I would love to hear how the suite lounge and coastal kitchen are.

We are scheduled for 1:30 boarding. We ended up arriving right at 1 and that was our reservation time and walked right in but we heard many people got on as early as 11:30 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo1124 Posted August 9, 2021 #29 Share Posted August 9, 2021 We are on the Allure today (8/8/21). Ship is about 1/3 full, I heard 2,099 passengers and it feels great. Crew happy to have us back and sailing. Sunset when leaving Port Canaveral. 36 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cindivan Posted August 9, 2021 #30 Share Posted August 9, 2021 So curious to hear all of your experiences. We are scheduled to go October 31 and are very hopeful that happens. Are they requiring masking inside from one then you to another? Any venues not requiring masking? It’s not a make or break issue for me, but so curious as to what is the norm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare perfect match Posted August 9, 2021 #33 Share Posted August 9, 2021 We’re on the September 12 sailing. I’d love to see a show schedule if you can get one. I know there will probably be changes by the time we sail, but at least it would be a starting point. MDR menus would be appreciated, too! Hope you have a great cruise! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare orville99 Posted August 9, 2021 #42 Share Posted August 9, 2021 (edited) 35 minutes ago, truffles2 said: Where did it say it was a vax cruise? It is an Eastern Caribbean with a scheduled stop in St. Thomas, and the USVI requires ships to be fully vaccinated in order to port there. RCL informed everyone sailing on a route that includes St. Thomas on August 3 that only fully vaccinated (12 and older) and children under 12 would be allowed to board. The Vax-only restriction goes until at least 10/31. Edited August 9, 2021 by orville99 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main Dining Room menu can be found on the Royal App on your phone for your sailing right now. You would just need to download it to your phone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truffles2 Posted August 9, 2021 #45 Share Posted August 9, 2021 We did the the message about St. Thomas. Several from our roll calls have received queries about being vaccinated, but we have not. I am really concerned about the dissemination of necessary information from the cruise line. You practically have to ferret out the part about pre-cruise testing and I read that yesterday many were denied boarding. The info is all over the place when it should all be in one place….imho. I am not surprised that many may not have known about the tests…. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
