Going to guest services tomorrow to talk to them about it and I usually would never complain. Not sure if they will do anything since starlink is coming but it's robbery to charge someone 26 a day for these speed. Doesn't even work half the time We had a fab day in Aruba. We did the Red Sail catamaran to the shipwreck and it was great. We then had some Dutch pancakes, lost a few dollars at the casino across the street, bought some crappy souvenirs, got back in the ship at 445 we didn't make it to our 515 dinner, but went to the windjammer at 630. I have been severely disappointed in the WJ. Terrible selection, very small buffet. I think the one on the Liberty was bigger and at the time I thought that one was small! We will def make our dinner time tomorrow. I mean, I don't wanna complain tooooo much as my clothes are fitting MUCH tighter but Royal has the up the game with their food. NCL is Michelin star quality compared to what I've had onboard Royal lately. It's not a deal breaker for me when cruising but it might be for some I was going to go to the aqua show again but it was cancelled. Stormy now outside. I won at least 300 in the casino tonight so I beelined out of there...very Smokey but the casino bartenders were in a good mood today and one of them even smiled at me, I was shooketh 😂 Hopefully these photos upload correctly the picture of me with the staff member is also named Aubrey! He heard my name being called for my morning coffee order and came over to say hello! We both were named after the song called "Aubrey" by Bread. I guess photos didn't upload Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkoenig89 Posted October 6, 2022 #55 Share Posted October 6, 2022 When dining in the MDR, have you noticed a long line for guests who chose the "my time dining" instead of the early or late seatings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't done Samba, but I have down something similar on NCL. I had the meat sweats so bad afterward, definitely won't do a Brazilian steakhouse for a while but I'm sure it's worth a try. Sabor on Liberty was ok, nothing to write home about Omg that happened to me to after the Brazilian restaurant on NCL! I didn’t even know that was a thing and didn’t even think I ate that much. I’ll never do that again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverbeenhere Posted October 6, 2022 #57 Share Posted October 6, 2022 #2 Best bet (#1 don't eat the meat) on surviving the sweats... Drink water not booze with your meat over dose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flogalerntx52 Posted October 6, 2022 #58 Share Posted October 6, 2022 This is an "out of nowhere" question, and I understand if you don't know the answer. We will be sailing on Allure in March, and we are wondering how the captain parks the ship. Will he (or she) park with the starboard side next to the ports? Or will she be parked on the portside? We were portside on our Harmony and never saw a port from our balcony. We were portside. Thanks for any information you can give us.

barb in ga Posted October 6, 2022 #59 Share Posted October 6, 2022 We were on Allure last week. We had the early dining in MDR deck 3 at 5:15 pm. Most nights, we finished between 6:30 and 6:45 and there was always a huge line; actually 2 lines, one for reservation guests and one for walkups. We usually eat at home between 6:30-7pm, but we like having no wait line, so we eat early and go to the earlier shows. We asked our cabin attendant for paper Cruise Compass and got it every night. We ate in Windjammer everyday but one for breakfast and everyday for lunch. Solarium Bistro is a great breakfast choice if you are having eggs cooked to order(less wait, hotter eggs). We were very satisfied with our food choices. We ate in MDR 4 nights and Chops once and Samba Grill once. Chops is lovely as always, but we were very glad we used our D+ bogo as it's now $65/per person. We used our 2nd BOGO for Samba Grill. Samba is a great value at $41.99/person regular price and the BOGO made it a deal. Barb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted October 6, 2022 #63 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Sorry to hear another negative review of food on Allure. Seems to be happening more often recently. We will find something to eat and be fine for a week. But I was hoping to be wowed by Royal food. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aubreyc1988 Posted October 7, 2022 Author #69 Share Posted October 7, 2022 We did the Cas Abao Scenic drive and beach yesterday. Was a pretty wet beach day but the water was great and saw some cool fish snorkeling off the beach. We stopped at Nena Sanchez art gallery and I bought a 10.00 print for my office at home. We had lunch at the beach and it was ok...basically 10-15.00 a meal, 15.00 or so a drink. Won some money in the casino, stayed too long and lost it haha 😆 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will only write it down now, people are so disappointing I would thank the individual for letting me know they overheard my room number, be aware, and continue to realize I’m on a cruise ship, and it’s absolutely no big deal. People advertise their room numbers before they even go on the cruise (asking if anyone has stayed there, is it noisy, etc)…and again, no big deal. I’m a vigilant individual, and this isn’t even on the radar screen. Edited October 7, 2022 by bucfan2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess it's time to crawl out of this cabin and enjoy these two sea days. Happy cruising. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
