  1. Do you mean when do you become D? If so it's the cruise after you reach 80 points in C&A. Have you already downloaded the RCL app? You can see individual drink prices on there, just click on dining, then bars and lounges and then the individual bar and it's menu. (might be a dollar per drink more out of the UK because there will be no added gratuity).
  2. Thank you for all of your lovely photos and your time to keep this thread alive. I've really enjoyed checking in every day and seeing where you all are and what you are up to so hoping someone else onboard will keep posting. Enjoy the rest of your trip.
  3. He's much braver than me, my knees were wobbly just walking over the bridge on the pavement😀
  4. Should not be too bad, all the schools in Europe are back then.
  5. I would think 6pm is correct for a Med cruise, it's normal to have later times than US cruises. I remember one cruise years ago when RCL had a ship based in Malaga that late dining was 9.30, even we who like late sitting changed to early which was 7pm.
  6. Sadly it does sound like what they told you is correct though, you will not be able to book the Dubai/Africa leg (unless you have any friends onboard).
  7. @ringers0815Thank you for all your beautiful pics and for keeping the 'live' part of the thread going. Just wondering if life onboard is continuing normally or has it been taken over somewhat by the changes for the 3rd segment and all the talk of that?
  8. We're on that one, here's the roll call
  9. Are you saying that you know that notifications get sent to the UK agents and the UK office at the same time as those in North America? I have spoken to the owner of the agency I often use and he has had no idea of cruises that have been cancelled. The last time this happened to me was in 2022 when Radiance was pulled from Australia. He actually said to me he didn't think it was correct until I sent him a copy of the cancellation letter that others had posted on here. It took him about 3 days to get confirmation.
  10. Sadly it is how RCL operate in the UK. Over the years I've had major changes/cancellations of cruises which I've read about on here which UK TA or even RCL UK office have no idea about. All have turned out to be correct and the news seems to reach those in the UK offices a week or so later I've complained even sending emails to Miami but nothing changes so I've learned to live with it. I sometimes think the Miami office sees us in the UK as second class customers.
  11. I think you've done the best thing, I would probably have done the same. Even if it gets you nowhere you've lost nothing. Hope you get the resolution you want (especially as something similar could happen to all of us due to be on Anthem in October).
  12. I think at this point the Straits of Hormuz are considered safe. I know MSC (and maybe others) are still doing their 7 night Dubai cruises until April when they too have changed their repositioning route. We've also been on Dubai cruises in the past when we've seen Iranian ships and planes nearby, may make me feel a bit nervous at the moment but I don't think they'd go if they thought there was any real danger.
  13. For me option one is actually a much better itinerary than the original one. We are booked on the Anthem repositioning to Singapore in Oct/Nov and I really hope they change it to something similar to this.
  14. I'd love to see everything carry on in this thread. I'm really enjoying following along, big thanks to all those onboard who have contributed so far. Hope those who are staying on and any others who board will continue to keep posting here. I'm also following a couple of others on FB but I still love CC best😁.
