Icon cruises are on some of the certificates for August sailings.

Haven't seen any for us.  Plenty of cruises and certificates being offered, but not one ICON....Maybe soon?   🙂

DH is Signature and no Icon invite. Received no invite to Wonder either.

Strange how that works!!!

No kidding?   Haven't seen that.   Did you book it?

I was invited to Masters event but already had a cruise booked for those dates

Got it.   Well thank you for your time.  Enjoy!

I'm Masters and have not

Thank you so much!!!!   Crossing fingers we get on it.

Have you ever been on a cruise where they label it the Signature Event at Sea?   They have a Welcome Party, Nightly Casino Programs, Private Slot Tournaments, Specialty Dining Event, Perfect Day a CocoCay Experience and Gift.   Sounds like it is a typical cruise experience with a little bit of additional bells and whistles.  

Just wondering if anyone has heard if invites will go out for the Icon's inaugural cruise or have gone out to Club Royale patrons yet?  Clarity: Club Royale players that have status that do receive complimentary cruises already.    We received invites to the WOS for that inaugural.  It was wonderful.   

Thank you!!!

Thank you!!!   I'm already booked on this ship for 2 weeks, end of oct and beginning of november back to back.  I just don't think i want to change my flights, etc., to get on this.  We'll see.   Have fun, if I don't go.   

is this not posted in the right place...?

Can anyone tell me how this event is any different than the complimentary cruises they offer based on your status and play throughout the year.   If you have any details on what to expect from the following below that would be wonderful.  This is for the Wonder of the Seas?

Welcome Party  (I think i see these invites on any of the complimentary cruises i receive, and haven't gone.   Is there something special about this one?)

Nightly Casino Programming  (Is this any different than a typical night in the casino?)

Private Slot Tournament

Specialty Dining Event  (Any details?)

Perfect Day at Cococay Experience  (Do they do something special here?)

Commemorative Gift  (Pin?  Bottle of Wine?)  Any ideas.   

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Infinity Bay Resort is amazing.  We have been many times and actually spent a week there.  Never had AI but we will next trip.  This is only half of the pool.  Gigantic.  Great food, drinks, and facilities here.

Hi Brother Craig, was this a ship excursion with Royal Caribbean?    Thank you!!!   

Hello,

If anyone has had experience working (which it seems we've seen more and more doing this) on the ships and have had to conduct a teams or zoom meeting, what was the outcome?   Were you able to rely on Wifi on a daily basis, or was it a total bust?  Thank you in advance.  Considering working on a cruise as my home office can be anywhere as long as i have wifi.  Would like to try this a couple of times before end of year.   

Thx Everyone.   Appreciate the input.   

Since the Trains cannot go through Canada, I cancelled the Best of Skagway and Train ride and booked the Eagle preserve and Lynn Fjord boat and rafting excursion.   How much of the views do you miss if Train cannot go through Canada?    I'm still not sure if i should still book the Train options.   Anyone who has done both, please weigh in.  Really appreciate it.

On our September cruise we bid on a few suites and most weren’t available. We ended up getting the Ultimate Panoramic suite which was seemingly the first suite of the ones we bid on to sell out.

LOVE THAT STORY!!!!   CONGRATULATIONS ON THAT SCORE!!!

It was my first time on RCL last week and therefore my first time experience of the bid up system. I put a bid for a GS and waited and waited and waited for a response. Finally got the rejection email 24 hours after sailing! What a joke 

OK...that's making sense now.   I've not gotten any updates in 5 days.   3 bids are still pending.  1 has Upgrade Unavailable Status - and i sail tomorrow.     I've wasted a lot of time checking to see if something changed...cause i couldn't help my self.   Oh well...thank you for sharing.

People in those classes of rooms are probably also bidding on upgrades which will leave their room open for you!

The other day there were probably 25+ of some of those classes available and now there are none...it will be interesting.   

Hello informed peeps of RCCL.   I've got 3 different "pending" bids on 3 different classes of rooms currently.  I sail Monday.   When i look for cabins of those classes on cruise booking websites, those cabins are no longer available.   So are the chances of my getting upgraded a cold chance in you know where?   Your input and wisdom would be greatly appreciated.   Thank you.

Where do you check the status of your bid?  I cannot seem to find it.

If you just google Royal Up ...the royal caribbean royal up link will pop up.   you need to plug in your last name and booking id/# and you'll see your status.   https://www.royalcaribbean.com/booked/cruise-room-upgrade   Good luck.   

Thank you everyone.

yes thank you. I'm familiar with the states and bermuda. Would like to know about Med and Europe.... Anyone know for sure? Thank you so much.

I'm looking to find out if the casino remains open while in port in Greece and Italy? Thank you.

Was your offer from Casino Royale?

(I received the email from Club Royale....yes it is legit. You pay taxes only. Nice Oasis class ships (allure, oasis, harmony and then the Liberty) Inside cabins with VB. Wasn't planning on another cruise, but jumped on this opp. You and a guest. $122 pp...(taxes). Upgrades not available on Harmony. Ship is pretty full.
