AHHHHHHH (that is me screaming for joy)!!!

My husband and I are individuals that love the warm climates (Caribbean, Mediterranean, etc). However, last summer we went to Alaska on Quantum (I was initially very skeptical). Shockingly, it turned out to be in our top five cruises (we have gone on 24 cruises to date). It did not hurt that we had the most perfect weather... I would probably give Alaska a try.

Thank you everyone for the very candid responses. I think we are going to pass on the card.

Thank you for the reply. We are trying to determine if it is worth it to get this card. I thought maybe if the OBC and/or stateroom upgrades were worthwhile, then perhaps I would go for it.

Greetings! I am curious...for those of you that have the above CC, have you found it to be beneficial? What types of OBC can you earn? Have you ever received a stateroom upgrade? If so, how does it work? Thank you!

That menu looks fantastic! We certainly did not have anything like that on Harmony a couple of weeks ago!

Hello! Unfortunately, I do not have any advice for you, as I too have been trying to contact them for the past couple of weeks (cruising on 27th May). If anyone does have advice, I am all ears. Thank you!

I am so glad to hear the positive reviews about Harmony, as we will be boarding in 12 days. Happing Sailing everyone!

Greetings! I have seen the "Royal Burger" served in the Main Dining Room. There are also burgers in the Windjammer as well.

I would love to hear more, as we will be boarding Harmony on 27 May 2023! Thank you!

I totally understand the sentiment. However, both of my children were reassigned as Emerald.

This happened to both of my daughters as well. When you are a minor, by default, you are the status of your parents. However, once you turn 18 years old, you are your actual status (based on how many points you have accumulated). Now this took place over eight years ago for both of my daughters. The only surprising part of your post, is the fact that she was able to be Diamond on the current cruise...

We are thinking of booking Wonder for next year - thank you for your observations.

Thank you very much @DaKahuna. Yes, we will be sailing Harmony in May and are Diamond Plus and was just wondering if we needed to make reservations. Perhaps I will anyway. Thank you for taking the time to "bring us all along" as I am reading every word you type. Continue to enjoy your cruise! Gina

Greetings! I know that you are in a suite, however I have a question: is there still reserved seating for Suites, Diamond Plus and Pinnacle on Harmony? Did you make reservations for the Ice Skating Show, or were you allowed in due to status? Thank you!

Hello! I had a balcony guarantee last summer in Alaska on Quantum of the Seas. My parents also did a balcony guarantee. Our cabin was phenomenal, and there's... not so much (they were looking at the life boats). It's just a chance you take.

On Quantum last month, iFly was $29/pp and North Star was $19/pp.

I am on this cruise too! I will certainly say "hello" if I run into you. Congratulations on your marriage - my very first cruise was my honeymoon 22 years ago and we have been smitten with cruising every since (this will be our 23rd cruise - all with Royal). BTW you said your friend will take you to the port on Sunday...the cruise leaves on Monday😀

We are on the 15th August sailing and there have been no updates at all. Once they sent out the "final itinerary" that was it. I will not allow it to ruin my vacation.

You notice that it has Giovanni's Table listed, but there is no Giovanni's Table on Quantum.

I too was wondering the same thing and asked about this in a post I started yesterday. I am more concerned with the actual menu - as the menu posted is outdated.

Thank you so much! My concern was that the sample menu showed a serving from Giovanni's and I know that ship does not have a Giovanni's Table. I think I will give it a try! Thanks everyone!

Thank you Biker19, that's what I was afraid of...

Greetings! Has anyone ever done the Taste of Royal Lunch on Quantum of the Seas? If so, how was it? I have looked at the sample menu on the website, but I believe it is rather outdated. We will be on Quantum on 15 August 2022, and this looks rather interesting. Any information on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
