Sorry but I have to Rah Rah here. That is not the fault of Royal, it's the lack of manners and responsibility of parents today. I don't understand why they have to produce offspring when they really don't want to accept the responsibility that comes with them. If they're that selfish and self-centered, they have no business becoming parents. And that's what I told my two kids early on...they didn't listen of course and I'm glad now...love my Grand kids. Society today pretty much sucks in general in that area. Like they say..."It's all about me" and they are making sure their kids learn it well. Something we all have to deal with and move on. I had hoped Surfside would alleviate some of it, but they tried.

Catastrophe! I can certainly see how you could be so disheartened, but this could happen in any ocean on any island or beach. Don't see how RCI could have been more accommodating. They obviously do a great job of beach cleaning, how else could anyone combat this ameba or whatever it is. It is in all the oceans and cousins are in any fresh body of water that gets warm on land as well. I don't get in either if I have any kind of lesion on my feet, it only takes a small pinpoint opening in the skin for these things to get in. I never get in a lake or any small body of fresh water if it gets hot. So sorry for the hell you've been through though, God bless you.

We've been there 6 times, never a cancellation, and I've never noticed any of that floating s--t anywhere on island, unlike Costa Maya which has gobs of it. It has it's underwater sea grass pastures as any island does, full of tiny critters fun to watch, but no floating s--t piling up on the beaches.

Just looking at all your pics has me getting the booking itch and we just got back last month LOLOL

OMG just opened the one we got on Voyager and by golly, it IS the old crystal block. They must've had a lot left over.

Todd always has his notebook and plenty of movies on it. We only use the darn thing as white noise to get to sleep LOL

We always book in September...ain't scared o'no hurricanes! Priced cheaper and kids back in school, what's to worry? We dealt with Ike back in the day, but the problem wasn't with the ship, but the airlines. We had to make changes in flights but we made it to Port Canaveral and the cruise was terrific.

We got ours on Voyager last month. Don't like the new ones, it doesn't match my others. Hiss

I'm not holding my breath for Royal Up either. Our sailing is getting pretty full.

And today priced a Central Park cabin, (no Surfside left) for our Sept Icon and that room is $4400 per person! twice what we paid way back in Oct. 2022 Yikes! Thought to maybe upgrade from our interior...nada!

They should have anticipated that and chosen the fabric cubbies, NO NOISE.

I know first hand what can happen. On Legend way back in the day, Diamond lounge had used the same platter for shrimp as other canape's and a lady got really sick had to go to the clinic and the Chef and a bunch of people came up to the lounge whilst we were there to inspect everything. A really big deal. She was allergic to shell fish. She ate some of the other pieces not knowing shrimp had been on the platter, somehow that was enough.

I wouldn't trust them to wash my clothes because of the heat and shrinkage...LOL...I bring enough.

Thanks for the confirmation David, we're counting on it in September! Woot!
