Run back to NextCruise and have them apply for it. Still have not heard official details from Royal. Did you have to commit to deposit immediately? We had 14 days You have a lot of friends on that cruise.😉 Edited February 11, 2022 by Ourusualbeach 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlbcruiser Posted February 11, 2022 #1328 Share Posted February 11, 2022 We’ll be on this ship in a couple of weeks and I have some questions that those of you on this thread might be able to answer. Perhaps the answers are to be found somewhere on this thread already, but with 52 pages, that’s a bit much to go through at the moment. Since I don’t see any way to make reservations for the shows online prior to sailing, I assume this is not done the same way that you do it on the Oasis class ships. Perhaps this has something to do with Covid and the cancellations of shows here and there the past few weeks (?). So I assume we make them on board? I think maybe I have seen mention of doing that as soon as you board the ship. Would any pf you know what the show schedule is for the various shows? Knowing this would help a lot with deciding our dining times. We always do late seating for dinner but at times we have done anytime dining on an Oasis class ship to make sure we get all of the shows in. Usually we’ve only done that when we are cruising with other people, which we aren’t now. I read somewhere (this thread esrly on perhaps) about the main dining rooms being really empty during late seating. Was that really the case? Do you think show schedules had anything to do with that or just the demographics/references of the passengers? We just switched to this ship from a different ship and sail date due to some conflicts that arose. Booking so late, when I looked at the shore excursions, many of them were filled. Of course they were all the ones we might be interested in doing! RC used to hold back some slots for those who didn’t realize you could reserve excursions ahead of time online. I wonder if they still hold back any slots for those passengers who may not realize what they would like to do until they get on board. Does anyone know if this is still the casr! Sorry to ask so many questions but I figured those of you that recently have been on this ship would be a good source of info. Thanks for any helpful replies.

(until we sell the house) It is much more per day doing the single leg than booking the whole cruise.....but in total for the whole 4 legs...ouch!! 😮 🤑 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
