Planning to book a last minute cruise for late April on an Oasis class ship. Does anyone know if RCCL is limiting capacity? What is the approximate crowd size lately?

Also, can someone send me the link or know the cost for drink and internet packages? Is there a discount for Captain’s Club (Emerald) or buying in advance of the sailing?

Thanks so much!

Agreed!

Anyone know why Falmouth was cancelled on the Feb 26 Reflection Sailing? I figured Grand Cayman would be, but was surprised by Falmouth. 
 

Thanks!

Thanks for the info! I was looking at a 2022 cruise.  Must be why it’s missing.

I didn’t see Grand Cayman listed on the Celebrity website about Covid restrictions. Does anyone know if you can get off the ship independently there, or do you have to take a Celebrity sponsored  excursion? Thanks!

Are there larger Edge balconies on the bump out like the other ships? We typically book concierge class and try and book one, if available. Is there a listing someplace on the board or are they easily identified on the deck plan? Thanks in advance! 

Thanks to both of you for your great ideas!

Happy New Year!

We are sailing on the Windsurf this month from St. Maarten and wondered how late we can stay onboard on the last morning of the cruise. Our flight does not depart until mid afternoon so there is no need to rush in the morning.

Thanks so much!

Thanks so much for your feedback!

We are sailing on the Windsurf in January 2016 and have booked the Mercure for the night before sailing out of St. Marrten. I'm second guessing our selection and wondering if it might be too far away and we will spend more to get to the port. Has anyone stayed at this hotel? Is it walking distance to anything? What are your thoughts? Thanks so much!

We sailed twice in October; once we left the port early because a hurricane was headed right at Ft. Lauderdale. We were supposed to go to the Western Caribbean and the Captain made an announcement after we sailed that we were headed East because the weather was better. Another time, we had a rain out on our day in Cozumel, total torrential rain. I think that if I went in the fall again, I would choose November, but I think its probably a crap shoot!

Sorry I wasn't clear- I just meant do they have a parade that would appeal to children since they don't offer the one with the DreamWorks characters.

Thanks so much!

We are sailing on the Indy in a couple of weeks and I just read that there are no DreamWorks characters on this ship. Can you tell me if there are kid based parades on this ship?

Thanks!

Thanks so much for your reply!

Hello! Has the pool opened up yet at the Margaritaville in Falmouth? We are looking for a place to go there for a beach experience without traveling to Ocho Rios. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Thanks!

Are there restaurants or local offerings of Salmon or Crab in the towns of Skagway, Juneau, or Ketchikan, or is a tour necessary? Does Princess offer any local meals?

Thanks!

Thanks! What night is formal night?

Hello, sailing on the 5 night Ruby on Jan 27 with one formal night. I'm wondering if lobster is served in the MDR? From reading or her posts, it sounds like it is served in the speciality restaurants, which restaurant is best?

Thanks so much!

Hi There,

Does Princess serve lobster on the formal night for the Ruby Princess? Sailing in January.

Thanks!

Thanks so much for your suggestions!

Hello,

Booking the Golden for an Alaskan cruise in June. Is it better to get the mini suite on Deck 8 since it is covered? We have always been on Deck 9, seems like since the weather may be a factor, 8 might be the better option. Also, is there a side of the ship that is best?

Thanks for your help!

Going on our first cruise to Alaska and there will be 10 of us. We are going on a 7 day inside passage through Glacier Bay and will either choose Princess or Holland American. They both offer special perks right now, Holland is offering a free drink package per person ( not big drinkers),and Princess has on on board credit. . I have sailed Princess before, although it has been about 5 years, but never Holland. When I think of Holland, I think of an older sedentary crowd, but not sure if this still the case. We are all in our early 50s, so may now be classified as older! I thought I would ask opinions for the better cruise line option. The other difference is that Princess is out of Seattle and Holland out of Vancouver.

Thanks for your feedback!
