Arriving tomorrow via RCL. First time in Cozumel. Have no plans. Was just thinking of grabbing a taxi into San Miguel. Anything to see sites wise, maybe a good lunch spot, etc? Want to just walk around, maybe find some actual local Mexican shops. Don't want a beach day as we are in Cococay this trip too. Any ideas? Thanks

Buy it when you can and keep checking back for lower prices. You can cancel and rebook if that happens.

Your Set Sail pass is used before you get your seapass cards. The "DX" for the drink package is on there.

People prebook and don't show up. When the standby line starts to form, get in it.

Your picture shows up when you scan the card, so no real threat of people using your card to make unauthorized purchases. I've only been on one cruise since covid (another in 2 weeks), but was impressed with the speed of checkin.

The shareholder benefit is OBC and it's very easy to get. We got back to cruising this past Jan and easily applied it to 3 cruises. One of which is in Oct 2024 and I'm no longer a shareholder. I'm getting 4.3% from a savings account with PNC on cash.

Thanks for the heads up. It's down below 87 now. Wonder why it's tanking. I sold mine when it hit $109 from a $38 cost basis.

Never felt checks were secure enough. I don't typically go around handing people my bank account numbers, name, address, etc. Different times now than when checks were popular.

If it takes less than a week for the maintenance, this makes perfect sense as to why the weeks before and after your cruise can make the stops. They apparently need to shut that engine down for a few days once the maintenance can be done (available mechanics, parts, etc). You agreed to the terms when you signed the contract. You can't then come here and cry that you don't accept those terms. You may think that makes me an "RCL Tweaker," but I think it makes me an adult.

If your credit is good, and you are concerned about holds, request a credit limit increase before you leave. Best to only use about 25-30% of your limit so if you do what I do and charge roughly $2,000 each month and pay it off, I want the limit to be at least $8k.

I've always emailed the form and proof. I get a response within a couple days.

When I bought in, my thought was hey, should make enough for a "free" cruise. Made enough to cover multiple cruises and also used the OBC offer 3 times. Big win, and really a No Brainer investment in 2020 and again when it dropped to the 30s last summer too.

I'm out. Sold at $109 for a 180% profit.

Every time I think I missed a chance to sell, I'm glad I held a few days later. Over 108 now.

Yes I do. I have 2 cruises booked currently. One for Oct 23, one for Oct 24. Oct23 OBC has been applied and spent. I can use my last statement to request the credit for the Oct 24 cruise. Holding the 50 shares 4 more weeks will save me from paying the higher tax rate. At which time I'll make a decision on them.
