If there was one, might want to check the Roll Call thread or FB group.

Yes, the ship's interpretation of that paragraph, hence the reason to ask on board before buying the card. Some have successfully argued with the barista or ship staff to get anything for one punch - YMMV.

It won't help much, but here what the prices were for the other Crystal ships: The two Crystal Cruises cruise ships that remained after the sale of Crystal Endeavour to Silverseas, Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity, have been sold to unknown buyers. Both ships sold well above estimate. Considering their age, the ships did exceedingly well in the auction. With 103 Million paid for Crystal Serenity, and 25 Million for Crystal Symphony, it is more than likely both vessels will be sailing with guests again soon. Two famous cruise ships that had been under arrest for over four months have been sold off to an undisclosed buyer. The 2003-built Crystal Serenity, valued at 37.5 Million USD, sold for nearly triple that amount at 103 Million USD. Crystal Symphony, built in 1996, also sold above the estimated 20 Million USD, instead selling for 25 Million USD. Considering the age of the vessels, the prices paid are well above analyst expectations. However, both ships have been in immaculate condition throughout their time with Crystal Cruises and have long been a favorite for Crystal’s guests. The buyer of both vessels is undisclosed, with only two shell companies listed as buyers, CSE Ltd. standing for Crystal Serenity and CDE Ltd. for Crystal Symphony. Richard Horton, who represented the Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony’s secured financier, confirmed the news to The Tribune: “For the Serenity, the total amount paid for the vessel was $103m. The buyer was a company called CDE Ltd. For the Symphony, the amount agreed was $25m for the vessel, and the purchaser’s name was CSY Ltd.” The Tribune further speculates that the buyer would be a London, UK-based entity. However, those rumors have not been confirmed. Earlier this year, the most prominent candidate to purchase both ships was Manfredi Lefebvre d’Ovidio, the former owner of Silverseas. Since the sale was made known, both the 51,044 gross ton Crystal Symphony and the 68,870 gross ton Crystal Serenity have taken to sea for the first time since February. Both are sailing close to the Bahamas in what is likely a test sailing for the new owners. Although selling the ocean-going vessels that belonged to Crystal Cruises is a step in the right direction, the further process of selling all of the cruise line’s assets could take months, with sorting out who gets paid any financial compensation a process that could take months or even years. As Cruise Hive reported, Crystal Endeavor has already been sold, with Royal Caribbean Group cruise line Silverseas being the likely buyer, although neither Royal Caribbean nor Silverseas has confirmed the purchase. This leaves the company’s river cruise ships that were operating in Europe. These are still for sale, with heavy interest from several parties. The most valuable assets, such as marketing databases from Crystal Cruises, were not covered in the sale of the ships and will likely attract a lot of attention when they are finally sold.

Yes.

Star.

And you might still get notifications on the app during the sailing.

Do a title filtered search for either Royal up or Royalup, this question comes up weekly and there are at least that many threads on it.

The Wi-Fi on the train is probably good enough for a proctored test on board.

Need to careful with absolutes, RCI has had a few times when that was not true.

They will likely adjust pricing to get to some optimal level of users. Use of the app should have a minimal affect on things as most of that traffic can probably stay on the ship (not need the sat connection).

In the early days of the O3B roll out, folks were routinely getting up to 25Mbps down on the ship - that didn't last long.

It's really though to know when to catch a falling knife.

The details of the Endeavour purchase should be listed in about 6 weeks when they file their quarterly with the SEC.

Look up Ovation and Quantum related threads from the main RCI section drop down menu - perhaps post this in one of the existing live from threads.

24/7 coverage.

This - most reported being able to only do one at a time.

Some may also be stocking up on the gov't tests - you may want to hold off. We just got a set of 8 iHealth tests as part of the second order (ordered 5/25/) - their expiration is 8/7/2022.

The app and the RCI web site, yes. Go to the LA on board to ensure all the info is correct.

Look at any ship with a similar length cruise in the app (like the 6/24 Anthem sailing) - the menus are bound to be very similar.

The size of a credit card.

No.

Not that I can find.

That language sounds like it's for sailings from China - the rules are likely different during her stay in Singapore. Read some of the Spectrum info/reviews on the Singapore Cruise Society FB page.

Nothing, you simply get moved to the newly assigned cabin.

The cost is typically the same on board. The reason to buy it on board is to ask how many punches they use for the drink you will order - if you they use more than one punch, financially, you are better off buying drinks individually. You can share/give the punch card to anyone.
