Rare h20skibum Posted March 13, 2022 Author #302 Share Posted March 13, 2022 We waited as long as we could to get off the ship. Since this was the coldest port stop we had, I thought about staying aboard. But they made final call, so we had to go. Now, we are at our hotel, getting some laundry done before we head out for lunch. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted March 13, 2022 Author #303 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Final thoughts on Allure. We really enjoyed the return to normalcy on this cruise. No masks required. Sharing table for dinner. Gathering in groups for the games and shows. Thanks for following along on our sailing. In 60 days, we fly back to FLL, and board the Allure again for an 8 day Southern. Till next time. 9 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we had a run in with this yippy little tyrant on the elevator definitely not a service dog definitely not well behaved 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems they repeat night 1 menus on these 8 night sailings, so my go to was escargot prime rib and apple blossom Hope the menu repeats like that in August 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit, I put a little bit more time in that review. This one was a last minute decision to post one. You will enjoy it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ports have changed a bit, no St. Thomas for us, but good to hear things are more open and active on the Allure! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted March 13, 2022 Author #315 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Now I will get to see how good the travel insurance is. They cracked one of our hard side cases between the cabin and the terminal. Claim filed and waiting on a response. I may need some duct tape before we fly home. Susan is already online shopping for new bags. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we booked this last minute, direct with Royal, I just added on their policy. I usually get one through Insure my trip, but thought this would be the easiest this time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan is already online shopping for new bags. Away luggage has been great for us. Casts a little, but they have a lifetime warranty and they stand behind it; I can tell you from personal experience. We had a bag damaged in flight, filled out their online form, within a week, a new bag was on the front porch, pit the old bag in the new box, and fed ex picked it up. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan is already online shopping for new bags. This happened to us on a cruise a few years ago, but the night before we left. We were running around the shops on board trying to find tape at 10:45pm. MrCatLady is no longer judgy of me carrying duct tape in my purse now. I hope you are able to get reimbursed. We board 4 weeks from today! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said they intend to bring it back, but they have not given them a start date yet. Thank you so much for checking. Fingers crossed it will happen by May. 🤞 Sorry about your suitcase.

kevnick0814 Posted March 14, 2022 #325 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Thanks for the review! Question: I know you dealt with a lot of wind but was the 'secret deck' on 14 forward open for sun & lounging? We were last on the Allure 5 years ago and make a return visit this June. It is a great place to get some sun, away from the craziness of the pool deck areas. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
