Definitely call and see what is happening but there are also itineraries that require kids to be 12 months old and over. It could be one of those and the system is having issues with the child's age.

It was very nice, it was a two bedroom grand suite with two bathrooms. It slept 8 but there were only two of us. Plenty of room! 😄

Pringles as priced similarly in our grocery stores too. There is just a huge mark up on the ships.

There used to be little bags of chips at Park Cafe on many ships, including Wonder, and at The Cafe at Two70 on Quantum class ships but not any longer. If you plan on ordering room service, you could add some to your order so you have some for later, but I wouldn't pay the $7.95 room service fee just for chips.

We book suite GTY when they are available and also bid through Royal Up. We then were assigned our suite and got a 2 bedroom grand suite. I was able to cancel our bids on grand suite and owner suite but do not want to be in the position of not being able to cancel a bid and "winning" a cabin that is of lower value than what I was assigned, so we will not do Royal Up again when booking a GTY. I know it is rare to get something other than a junior suite, but it does happen.

@DaniDanielle She's a cutie! How is Charlie doing? Haven't seen you post much, so was hoping he wasn't sick again. 🙂

That is true in the Crown Lounge, not the Suite Lounge. Drinks in the suite lounge are unlimited and do not require vouchers.

Access to the theater is on deck 4 and 5, so you would not have crowd traffic from that venue. Access to the cabin corridors is from the elevator lobbies, so as long as they are down the corridor a bit, I wouldn't worry about it.

Those cabins have side facing balconies. There is a public space that overlooks the aqua theater that gets very crowded during shows. There is a door that goes from the cabin corridor to that public balcony that I would be worried about slamming all the time.

Deck 6 is our go to deck on Oasis class ships. If we can't get that, we will take either deck 8 or deck 7.

@taznremmy Oh no! Were you treated on the ship or a hospital in Honolulu? I hope you are able to enjoy the rest of your cruise home and have a quick recovery.

Do you have Elite or higher status on Celebrity? It could be a status match.

It is ship dependent. We were give slips for every drink on our recent Serenade cruise and never saw a slip for our drinks on Oasis.

Yes, you can use your drink vouchers for any drink up to $14. Crown Lounge has a coffee machine that makes lattes, cappuccinos, americanos, etc but we don't find them to be very good, even when adding an extra shot of espresso.

There is an ignore feature that you can use if you have an issue.

No ice packs available. I would suggest you buy an old fashioned, screw top ice bag and bring that with you. They are between $10 and $15 depending on the size and do not sweat like baggies do. We traveled after my husband had surgery and was still icing his leg and the ice bag worked great. We just asked the cabin steward for a large ice bucket of ice each day and extra towels. He left a plastic wine chiller bucket twice a day for us.

There are complimentary drinks available in the suite lounge during happy hour for those sailing in grand suites and above. If you are sailing on an Oasis class ship, there is also free beer, wine, soda and bottled water available from 11am to 11pm.

That makes perfect sense, might as well use the 8 vouchers and save on the cost of a second refreshment package.

Port Canaveral has been strict in our experience.

No, just one block unless your C&A accounts aren't linked.

You should review the benefits as they have changed a lot. It clearly states the drinks are daily. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/content/dam/royal/resources/pdf/crown-and-anchor-society-benefit-grid.pdf

Try to see if you can once the system comes back up. If you can't, you can email for help and they will do it for you. I had an email hacked a couple of years ago and asked for help and Laura was very responsive.

Furniture in our cabin definitely were not replaced but the drapes were. No rips and they kept the cabin very dark. We did have a vent cover held on with scotch tape, but that is a different story.

I was #170 around 11am at our polling place. I was expecting to see a higher number as we have one race that has been very contentious from the start.

Mac and cheese in Serenade WJ was good too when we sailed recently. It was also shells and very cheesy.
