Symphony-want CPV balcony cabin overlooking musicians
firefly333 replied to dizgal64's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I liked deck 10, closer to the park, and further from the pool deck overhead and any noise from there. -
No algorithm expert but help me understand
firefly333 replied to sadiwest's topic in Royal Caribbean International
A 3rd party, not royal directly, handles royal up. Its driven by what categories are on your ship, not what is available. They dont know and why should they care, they are doing what they are supposed. No one knows what it would take to win, and unless someone cancels no you cant get a sold out category unless they too royaled up and their cabin is now vacant. Not sure why people ask questions they know no one here knows the algorithms or how they are determined. Ask something there is a answer for, not why royal does something that is impossible to know. I guess this is just musings not a serious question. -
Is it easy cruising out of Galveston?
firefly333 replied to 3red7s's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I'm moving to florida but have another cruise on marriner before I move then October I'm flying into hobby, staying at the holiday express and hopefully have a shuttle lined up. -
Week before Halloween or week of for lesser crowds?
firefly333 replied to dizgal64's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I dont think people book because of Halloween. It's not a school holiday. Thanksgiving week is more, not Halloween. -
Izumi hibachi for dinner full priced on my ships is 59.99. This is what they would charge me onboard. I can book direct 15% off before I board right now. I've never seen it cheaper onboard unless someone discounts it for you.

Revamp of C&A tiers? Cruises getting expensive!
firefly333 replied to nolegirl01's topic in Royal Caribbean International
That would be my worry, I gamble to get offers and all my offers are in ports I have to fly to -
I only remember a tiny discount if I also bought wifi. I wanted a discount on excursions, never happened. This is a rcl thing, not a carnival thing.

Yes 4 posters in this thread have that color with some really beautiful furniture. Turned out my painter just painted the walls that color, ceiling white. For such a big price I assumed he was painting everything, but I'm not so sure what it needed, havent been there yet. Brownish grey, it goes with everything. Lol it's very agreeable.

Did you book the wonder deal? What kind of price did you find last minute? -
Double points for cruising single ?
firefly333 replied to volk904's topic in Royal Caribbean International
A solo inside for 15 days would cost less than a JS for 10 days solo. Same points. Cheapest would probably be new orleans or one of the older ships out of tampa. Grandeur cheap usually. The TA might be cheaper mentioned above if you dont count airfare. -
Hahaha. Did I mention him bragging about punching out his hc grandson. They hadnt moved in a month and 6 or so police cars were there neighbors told me. Yes the kid has a mouth. He has flippers for hands and had a leg amputated. Son of my bil favorite who is the one I mentioned taking my stuff to sell in her store. Yes I'm sure the kid has issues, but so does my sister. He called his mom the B word and others, so big shot bil punched him, 3 times. Kid called 911 and police came. Bil had to go to court and pay a fine and was on probation 6 months last year. So brave punching a kid with amputated leg and no hands. I think there but for Karen's money goes my sister. She can be mouthy too. I told him to stop. He said if the kids mom his daughter just would punch him out that would solve the respect problem. He doesnt listen to me. He wanted to fly to maine and I said I can book it. Oh we want to fly in and just drive around. He wouldnt hear of booking hotels ahead. He wants to drive around looking for a vacancy sign. Finally they gave up. Now they want to plan a trip to ireland and just go. He keeps saying stop in a pub like tv movies and share a pint. None of them drink. No planned hotels, just go and play it by ear. I'm refusing to rise to the bait. Let them do what they will. To homestead the house karen my sister needs a ID with the address on it. Last year he said he did it. Not done. House isnt home steaded. He promised to do it yesterday. I'm paying the property taxes, they dont care. He makes promises he doesnt keep. Homesteading the house is the last thing before I move. She doesnt drive so no drivers license, but texas issues a texas ID and address has to match. 3 days ago I got the rejection letter from dallas property appraisal district. He told me last year he did update her ID but didnt. His bad memory always used as a excuse. One more thing then I'm free of here.
