Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Like others we have done this 4 day multiple times. Unlike others we would not recommend the Bison Tour. Even the guide acknowledged that sightings are becoming fewer and fewer. Just my 2 cents. La Bufadora is an ok trip. See it once and that is plenty. Have done it twice sailing with different family members. Once by bus and once private tour. Agree the bus trip does seem long. Private tour in van much better. Enjoy.
  2. Count us among the lucky. Two Royal Ups this past summer on two different ships and both got us the extra points. Not the norm but it seems ya never know what may happen.
  3. Happened to us. Same story about waiting to final payment. Cruise leaves June 9th. I called, TA called we were both told different things. I couldn't call had to be TA. TA called had to be me. One customer service rep was actually very rude continuously talked over me when I was trying to explain. Asked him to please stop talking over me and listen, with that he promptly hung up. Called back and was connected to resolutions. This guy tried to help. Put a priority on my request. Let him know about the hang up. Some OBC showed up on my reservation. Credit was applied with no notification to me or TA. Only found out when TA called to inquire status. Have applied the 125,000 3x in the past and never had this happen.
  4. Seems to me that roll call threads have taken a real nose dive in people posting on them. Have 11 cruises booked only 4 with roll calls. Three of them with 5 or less posts. Not sure why but maybe because meet and mingles are gone?
  5. Have canceled onboard the day of. Probably not the norm and would not suggest it. Really weren't expecting the refund to show up on our account but it did. May have been a waiting list and they filled the slots?
  6. Our blocks sat in the original boxes in a closet until we realized the eBay route. Have sold every block there along with all kinds of Royal stuff that used to be given out. Anyone remember the shot glasses at dinner? Sold. Collecting just not something we do. The only thing we have kept is 2 of the toiletry bags. Still using them. We now opt for the 3 bottles of wine as our amenity.
  7. Anyone know the taxi cost port to Sand Castle? Thanks
  8. Received double points with Royal Up this past summer. Not expecting them but they did show up. Certainly not the norm. Cross your fingers.
  9. We will be departing from London not the airport. We enjoy train travel so that may be the way we go. Thanks for all the great information.
  10. Plan on going to Sand Castle or Rainbow. Any idea of current taxi fare? Thanks?
  11. Agree... Kronos is one of the best house bands we have ever seen on a Royal ship. Lead guitar player is amazing. Would be nice if they played in a bigger venue. Boleros was jam packed every night they were there. No insight on MDR, don't use it. Windjammer ok for dinner, excellent service. Playmakers pretty good pub food.
  12. Thanks for your help. National Express seems to be the way to go.
  13. Looked at ports thread did not find Royal specific info. Question is does Royal provide a shuttle service London to Southampton? Thanks.
  14. Covers cost of the minimum available priced ocean view cabin up to $1000. If the cabin cost is less, then that is what is covered. If the cost is more, then you pay the difference. If you chose a higher category cabin it covers up to the cost of the minimum available priced OV you pay the difference. Have always booked a higher category when redeeming points. Used to be you would not get points/credit if you paid $0. Not sure if still that way. A whole lot of years ago had that 1 time and reservation agent added $$ to invoice so points were awarded.
