  1. Hello, For those booked on guarantee basis, we are on the Beyond April 27th and were just assigned our cabin 43 days out. We booked the last cabin late February, an oceanview guarantee. We were assigned a deluxe oceanview room all the way forward on deck 8 and are very pleased. On our last three cruises we had aqua class and had bigelow products, curious to what brand shampoo/conditioner/soap the oceanview rooms have? Has anybody had any of the cabins 8109, 8107, 9103, 8101, 8100, 8102, 8104, 8106 and can comment on your experience? We also booked late and unable to get dining reservations earlier than 9pm, so decided not to reserve. Just curious how long to expect to wait for a table in the MDR having no reservations? We like to eat around 7:30pm. Thank you.
  2. Hello, We were avid cruisers of royal Caribbean and strayed to Celebrity for the past few years which we love but want to experience a combination of both royal and celebrity each year. We have some questions if you don't mind answering, again, its been a few years since we last were on a Royal Caribbean cruise. 1- We are diamond, do we have access to the diamond club on the Freedom of the Seas, and if so what time at night does it close? 2- Celebrity offers us discounts on internet and the drink package, does Royal offer discounts for diamond members for the drink and wi fi packages? 3- The Freedom is due for dry dock next April is it showing wear and tear now? 4- What time does the viking crown lounge close at night? Is there music there late at night? 5- What time does breakfast end in the MDR? 6- What brand of shampoo/conditioner/soap do they use? 7- Celebrity has the sunset bar outside and is open late at night does the Freedom have a bar open at night and if so which bar? Thank you for the help!
  3. Ok, I will hold off, today it is buy one get second half price but regular rate is 105 per person per day which makes it $78.75 per person, I will keep watch, thank you.
  4. Hello, we just booked the Freedom 8 night in December. We always get the premium drink package, but since our cruise is way out, we have time to purchase. What is a good price for the premium drink package to lock into? Right now I have a buy one get one half price, but it appears the regular price went up to $105.00 per day. This deal will be $78.75 per person per day. What price do you feel I should purchase at? Thank you.
  5. I used a casino offer and booked a room for April 27 on the beyond, the ship only had one high end suite left (still available) or an oceanview guarantee, so I took the guarantee oceanview room, still waiting to hear assignment of our cabin.
  6. Actually this cabin was booked as a comp with blue chip. My other half got aqua class and concierge offers but we wanted this particular sailing so they created a new offer while on the phone for an oceanview comp.
  7. Thank you, was afraid we arrive and not get on the ship, thanks for the reassurance.
  8. That is what I was worried about, whether they oversell like flights, thank you!!
  9. Hello, we booked the Beyond April 27 cruise, the only choice of cabin available was the most expensive suite or an oceanview guarantee cabin. We chose the oceanview guarantee cabin and still do not have a cabin assignment. For those who have previously booked a guarantee cabin when was your cabin assigned to you, how far in advanced from the sailing? I wonder if anybody who booked guarantee cabin was not assigned a cabin and got bumped from the sailing? I had no choice, it was the only cabin assignment available to us and I been watching it each day with no availability besides the most expensive suite. I am getting worried and hate to take the time off from work to find out we can't get on this sailing.
  10. I got like an oceanview panoramic room. 1k is quite a bit of money, it can buy your drink package and internet.
  11. I have a cabin assignment, they also have move up like celebrity where you can bid on an upgrade, I was not aware of this. Thanks.
  12. Hello, honestly, I believe the only time we actually used the balcony was on one cruise and that was for less than 20 minutes. We booked the Celebrity Beyond three weeks ago, there was only one cabin available an outside guarantee so grabbed it as we want to do the 8 night ABC islands again. I still am waiting for a cabin assignment and understand it can be anywhere, but now are thinking, do I really need that balcony??? lol. I think I am going to find like you, not missing the balcony. I agree totally with you, I rather be on deck 6 close to everything and can use the stairs too. Have you ever gotten upgraded booking the guarantee rooms?
  13. Thank you. 5:45 is way too early and 8:30 too late. I always have dinner between 7-8 but my young grandsons will be on the cruise so figured 6:30 happy medium lol.
  14. Hello, its been awhile since we cruised Royal, we been cruising Celebrity and booked a second cruise for this year on Royal but have some questions: (Freedom 8 night cruise) 1- I have chosen Mytime Dining, I noticed on somebody's post that said maytime dining is 7-9:30pm. Does this mean we are unable to go to dinner at 6:30? 2- When does check in start, 45 days? 3- Do you like the specialty restaurants, any advice? 4- We have three big trips planned for this year and the reason why we booked this is that our kids asked us to join with our grandkids of course and how could we say no? We want to keep the cost down, for over 25 years I have had balcony cabins, and we chose a 4N room which is on deck 6 very forward, room 6504, has anybody stayed in this cabin or any of them close to it and how was your experience with this room? Thank you.
