Black Friday starts the 9th.
zebra36 replied to Ken at the beach's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Rebooked Giovani's lunch for a few days and saved a few bucks but not much else interested me. -
Beginning to look that way!

I just plan to use OBC on cruise, not worth the bother to do otherwise for me.

Dining Review after recent return from 2 sailings
zebra36 replied to LobsterStalker's topic in Royal Caribbean International
On the VOS recently, the beef (prime(?) rib and tenderloin) were certainly a cut(no pun intended)below what has been served in years past. Haven't seen rack of lamb in a while. Just seems to be a downward trend in quality of food offered in the main dining room. I certainly did not go hungry but just getting disappointing. -
Canceled and rebooked for same time slot on Vision. Ate lunch there just last week and was able to order two apps and two entrees with no problem. Filet was good and had the gnocchi. Skipped the potatoes on the plate with the filet, certainly a bargain especially with the larger discount offered now. ENJOY!

Never mind see this has already been posted!

Royal has been rather stingy and lame with prizes offered. Last memorable score for me was a T-shirt years ago which no longer fits(LOL) Just need to play for the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat!

Just reached the level where I would qualify for the "upgraded toiletries" but sounds like not worth bothering to request if they are not there. Maybe it is a guy thing, but I can use whatever is in there.

Enchantment rooms added with ship enlargement.
zebra36 replied to cruisegirl1's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Nice thing about those rooms is that the showers do not have the shower curtains that try to attach themselves to you but have the plastic(?) fixed sliding thingy's. -
By the glass can(?) be iffy when doing so in the dining room. Though I probably could not tell the difference I like to see the wine I asked for poured from the bottle which will not happen there. I generally grab a glass at one of the bars when heading into the dining room. Selection is always hit or miss at any venue.

No more check in on the website-app only
zebra36 replied to BND's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I checked in online a few weeks ago and all seemed OK but I cannot bring up the set sail pass on my phone or print it out from my PC. Will just go to port with passport and as much info as I can print out and muddle through the process there. -
Perhaps if not been to one previously, might be worth the time if nothing else of interest is going on at the same time. Once you have done this you will may come to the conclusion that a second visit is not worth the effort.

When this stock was considerably cheaper, I imagine many here bought for the OBC benefit and just held onto as a curiosity as I have done myself. It is getting to the point at my age I am not sure I will take enough future cruises with Royal to justify holding onto this and probably should just cash out and pay for a few cruises with the proceeds.

Have you booked through MGM Rewards
zebra36 replied to CarolRoy's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I have been able to get the OBC credit applied to a booked cruise and I believe at the time the only requirement was that the booking had to be made within the past 30 days. YMMV -
THE ROYAL CARIBBEAN VISA SIGNATURE® CARD
zebra36 replied to gowensricks's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Worth it if a $200 or equivalent point bonus offered for signing up, after meeting bonus requirements not worth keeping IMHO! -
Your choice. But if the option to get airline luggage tags for the $25 fee it is something to consider., either way I would not do the carry off your own thing.

Dramatic tidal flows do not seem to occur when tours in Oct. are run and I would not care to pay to do one of those to look at the tidal basin with nothing going on flow wise. Will probably just explore the town on my own.
-
I remember when a waiter would come around after dinner with a tray full of those drinks but haven't seen that in ages. Actually heard of folks not realizing they were being sold and just kept drinking them as the cruise went on not realizing the cost, not sure if this is just a tall tale.

I still have one of those T-Shirts though my ship is barely in shape to fit into it.

BOA rewards phone number
zebra36 replied to vacationlover_mn's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Thanks for asking, now I have the info I will need in a few weeks for my one and only call for this. When finished I will cancel this card. -
Great start, hope you can continue with you trip summary and photos. BTW great looking family.

Utopia of the Seas Short Cruises??
zebra36 replied to lcpagejr's topic in Royal Caribbean International
3 or 4 day stay at an amusement park with stops at Coco Cay is most likely the best revenue generator. also, I would guess that the average daily onboard spend on shorter cruises is higher. -
Just off Vision out of Baltimore
zebra36 replied to KPookey's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Did the overnight thing last year and with later arrival and early(?) departure the next day just did not seem like enough time to really explore on both days.
