Wow. The more I am reading the more I ask myself why I never thought about this before.  Also sounding like more than I expected are doing back to back.  I am learning a lot of good stuff.  I didn’t even think of needing a new sea pass.  This certainly sounds like something I may get addicted to doing.  Sounds like RC goes out of the way to make it as smooth and enjoyable as possible.

Were these pics taken right after the storm?  I am not seeing anyone on the slides or near the pool.

 Wow , those are going to be some expensive ice cream cones? Might be better options for you then booking cruises?  LOL

Have you tried the ice cream down by the pool.  So good.  Might be the sea air all around it.  It’s the only reason I cruise! Ben and Jerry’s is an option but it is inside.  Maybe I will get a B&J next time and carry it out to the pool.  Then I can see if the sea air has the sam effect on all ice cream.

The soft serve ice cream is all served (can’t make the foot tall cone). 

Great,  they still have the ice cream machines going. Now that I know they are around I can start booking cruises again!  Looks like I will need to get two at a time now.

Thanks.  Sounds pretty Simple and fun.  We have cruise friends that may only get to do a 5 day cruise so I found a 9 day cruise that has a 5 day cruise before and after it.

You will love doing a b2b.  If not in same cabin, no problem.  Room steward will bring a cart to your cabin and remove everything hanging up onto the cart and you pack up anything in drawers, bathroom etc and they simply take your luggage to your next cabin.

One time My Dh joked he will put his underwear and docks on hangers so he didnt have to repack them.  They thought he was serious and bought him a bunch of extra hangers to do that.

 

Lol, that’s funny and sounds like something I would of said!

I wonder if there are more than two of you they would adjust so you can seat together

I have never done b2b cruises but I am considering one now.  I understand all things can change these days but based on the past, when booking b2b do you have to book the same room?  Am I assuming wrong that you don’t have to get off and back on between cruises ?  If you don’t have to have the same room, how does your luggage get to the second room? Do you just set your bags outside the room and they take care of it from there?  Is there anything else I need to know about?

We made D+ a few years ago on the Vision, we got our pins, etc the day we reached the required cruise days.

How did it happen, did you go to the Loyalty Ambassador?

You are doing a great job with posting pic, explaining what’s going on and going through this process you are going through.  Thanks!

Thanks for posting the pics.  Crazy, looks like a ghost town.

Woooo! Now all we need is to be allowed to fly to Spain to get on the cruise and it’ll be good to go. The Harmony TA is my honeymoon so have everything crossed it goes ahead 🤞

Based on the U.S.Embassy & Consulate In Spain & Andorra, Effective June 7, 2021, vaccinated U.S. citizens can travel from the United States to Spain.

OMG, Vanilla please.  

Yes, and I way over eat it but hey, it’s a cruise!

Would you cruise out of Florida if the sailing was allowing more than 5% un-vaccinated?
 

yes

Is this something new?  If so how long have they been on RC site.  I was checking out rooms on Independence.  When I was checking out the suites I noticed a button that said view virtual tour.  Clicked on it and it was a 360 camera tour of the suite.  For the balconies they only had Spacious Ocean View Balcony virtual tour.  Looked on Harmony but did not see any.

Getting ice cream down by the pool. 

They are now showing all 8 sailings for July and August.  6 of the 8 sailings show the interior rooms sold out.

Royal has had the opportunity to activate that clause in past and didn’t do it. I do recall they attempted to once, but got heavy backlash and backed off

Yes, I remember wondering if they would take action on it and they never did.

So at what capacity is RC cruising at now?  Will there be limits on just test cruises or on all cruises.

In all likelihood, both sailings have capped out due to the CDC's CSO capacity restrictions.

When I noticed them missing last night that was my first thought, capped out but I thought it was because many were excited to get cruising again.

It will be nice if we can use them at dining.

I am just ready to cruise.  I couldn’t pick all 4 so I didn’t pick any.
