Are curling irons on the list of prohibited items to bring onboard? Cruising on Utopia next week.

Thank you so much for sharing the email you received. Much appreciated.

Do the extra points apply to any charge made by the card that day or only for Royal Caribbean cruise reservations?

Me too until Hurricane Helene took over broadcasting in the Orlando area tonight.!

Totally disagree. My last cruise was a 4-night on Allure. No booze cruise atmosphere at all. (felt like a 7-night...just shorter) I am cruising next on a Utopia 4-night in December. We'll see what the vibe is like then.

Thanks for the "heads up" about the helipad rescue. Hope that won't happen on our cruise but at least we know what might have happened if all of a sudden we do not have access to our cabin.

Thanks so much for sharing your experience. My husband and I are sailing in cabin 9500 on November 18. I believe that our cabin also has the bed by the window. Hopefully we wiil have a little better view being two decks up. Totally agree that some chairs and a small table would make a nice addition to the room as there is definitely space.

Me too.

Thank you both. Just missed it the first time.

Is there no ice show scheduled for Utopia?

Loved Nordic. I'm onboard!

My husband and I are also elite. Wondering how being elite supports your mobile bar. What do you actually do to save some of your drinks for later consumption? Love your review. We sailed on Connie several years ago and would love to again sometime soon.

Is it too late to request that you please continue to share the rest of your Reflection journey with us? I was so enjoying your posts. I just found your live review this evening was I was looking for recent Reflection information. Please don't leave us hanging. We need to know the outcome of all of your journey goals!

If you check the web page for Phoenix, they are listed as playing on Icon for the next three weeks.

Just off Allure Dec. 15. Yes, they did have Love and Marriage show as well as Quest. Definitely agree with poster, ours was not a party cruise vibe either.

We feel the same. We cruised on Allure in 2015 and just returned from a 4-night sailing on Dec.15. The ship is in great condition, the cruise director is very energetic, comedians were outstanding. Mama Mia is fabulous. Our sailing was the last performance for the current cast and they surprised guests with a caroling performance in Central Park. (nice ) They still have the 70"s party in the promenade which is getting a bit old and the ice show Bladez is definitely not up to par with previous shows.

Many people like myself pay the grats onboard. I know how much they cost;they don't have to be included in the upfront cost. Many cruisers live within driving distance to a port so would not need airfare, hotel, shuttle costs,etc. I like the information the original poster suggested to be included.

We were just on Allure last week and never had one reminder about any rating in the dining room. First time that ever happened. Very refreshing!

Same. Loved Nordic Prince with the real VIking Crown Lounge!

Just arrived home this morning completing a 4 night sailing on Allure out of Port Canaveral. Dec. 11-15 Yesterday we were supposed to visit Coco Cay. The winds started out about 30 kts getting up to around 52 kts. Watched as Coco Cay went by in the distance. The ride to Port Canaveral was windy all the way home. The ship is so big that we only experienced a mild sway but it was certainly noticeable. Looking forward to hearing how the 3-day sail to Nassau and Coco Cay goes this weekend.

Thanks. Wonderful to hear. We're onboard one week from tomorrow and hope we will experience the same.

Were there any Diamond time exclusions to the Lounge last week when you were onboard?

Thank you so much for your help.
