I would love the block but currently do not have any extra blocks, but if you would sell it, I would be interested in buying it if I can afford your price. I would also pay or reimburse you for the shipping. I live in Washington State.

I would love to find a clear Symphony or Sovereign block but neither seem to be available, even on EBAY

I wish I could find a clear V1 or V2 Wonder, but I have nothing I can trade for it other than a Clear V! Independance.

Agree, as I just posted a minute ago on this subject.

Victoria has the capability to do repairs on the smaller radiance class ships and they have been hauled into a drydock there before. If the parts are available, and the damage isn't too bad, it is possible to get her fixed. Until a diver, in full cold gear looks at it is all speculation. RCCL will post an update when the inspection is complete. Regardless, the ship will eventually get repaired, and she will probably have paying passengers on departure from Victoria. As said, until the inspection is complete and availability of parts is established, it is probably too early to panic. I believe the Serenade did a retrofit there a couple of years ago.

nope. none for sale on ebay other than colored ones which nobody really wants in my opinion.

would you sell me one?

Does anyone know the email address for the loyalty ambassador on the Odessey? Our next cruise will be on that ship and we are hoping that being recognized as a new Pinnacle on the cruise with 700 points that we can hopefully get a clear crystal block. We know that on other ships that the loyalty ambassador normally has a small supply that they have hidden away for some folks.

We only need to find one block to have all of the blocks on ships that we have sailed on. If anyone has and will sell me the block I will buy it. We live in America. We want THE SOUVEREIGN OF THE SEAS. Email: baumeier7@msn.com

I am gluten sensitive, but not a celiac. I have eatened many times on the Radiance (my favorite class of ships) and have had zero issues finding/ ordering gluten free food either in the MDR (tell your waiter) or the windjammer. The best way to get windjammer you desire is to talk to a chef in the windjammer and they will get or make it for you. Their gluten free pizza's are super because you can order anything to be put on it and you get the whole thin crust pizza steaming hot delivered to you at your table. It takes some time for them to prepare it so assure you have a bit of time. The same holds true for hamburgers with gluten free buns, and the doghouse also has gluten free hotdog buns on request. I have found that the French fries are not an issue for me, but the chef will, make you gluten free fries on request. Ed

you can also go to guest services and draw out REFUNDABLE OBC which are the VISA OBC credits.

We love the Radiance class ships grand suites and the smaller suite lounge. The ships grand suites don't have a couple of things that the new ships have. The bathroom night lights don't exist, and there are fewer 110 volt outlets. We take a simple 3 outlet two prong plug in to provide more outlets as needed. A plus is that the balcony doors when locked, cannot be opened from the outside, but if you have a kid or prankster, they can lock you outside. We leave the curtains partially open for the nighttime bathroom trips, as well as the room steward can see if we are on the balcony so they don't inadvertently lock us outside.

no reservations required. There is at least one time when it is only opened to teenagers.

yes, the doghouse has gluten free buns and meats and sides. Each ship handles it somewhat differently based on demand, but if you ask, they will get and prepare for you. The buns are frozen, and I believe they are made by UDI, but there are other suppliers also.

Dog house has gluten free but you have to ask them as the buns are kept frozen until requested then warmed. The gluten free meats are also normally available but again, most times you have to ask. In very busy ships it can take some time to get what you want, but we have gone early and told them what we wanted and at the time we showed up to pick up they were available, warm and tasty, along with gluten free sides.
