And these are cvs and Walgreens in Fort Lauderdale or just in general?
-
Our family from Mass will be on Oasis in February but will be in Florida for three days before the cruise. What are our Covid testing options? Is there a cvs or Walgreens in Fort Lauderdale that we, as out of state residents, can get an appointment at. Any other options? Thanks.

Just to be sure.. We're on Royal next month on Odyssey.. We aren't breaking any covid protocol but taking a taxi to Nachi for the day, right? That's allowed?
Curious about this myself. Planning for Feb 2022.

Interested in knowing as well.

If you booked with 3 and get 3 FCC’s and then book something with a KSF Royal will work with you and apply the 3 FCC’s to the first 3 passengers totals. They are able to move money around between guests as long as all the guests are sailing.
Yeah. That worked. In reality, they messed up the credits on the emails. The first one listed no credits applied and the third passenger for free. The second listed two credits, one for the total amount, and one for a partial amount. The third again listed no credits, but was reduced another full credit amount. I called and the truth was in the middle of sorts. They did apply credit to the third person first which dropped them to zero but as the receipt show no notation of credit, and given the third person was so close to the zero amount already, the cruise fare value barely changed and I didn't notice a difference between that and the new cruise value value. Then they put the full value on the second person with the second receipt. Then the full on the first with the third email.
But the whole thing was still short a good chunk because as the rep told me, I applied my credits over the computer and it only will apply it per passenger and reissue the remaining balance once your done and if I wanted to use all the credits for the trip, I had to specify that but the online doesn't allow it to be specified. Trouble with her claim was that I had it applied over the phone via C&A to begin with and said I wanted to use all the credit toward the sailing I already had booked. They didn't apply it as I verbally requested. Ugh. At least it's done. I have a new slip with the correct amount now.

We received our FCC for our cruise fare the other day. It was correct for 125% of the fair. I called C&A and they said they applied it to our next cruise. I got the approval of the credit application yesterday and low and behold, it's short 1405. They only credited the fare on the the first two passengers. Apparently our DS who was the third on the booking only cost a dollar when we booked onboard on one of our last cruises. So if you are booking with more than two people, especially right now since it's kids sale for free, you can't even use the credit for it. I have no plans to take two cruises next year and as of now, don't even get my 100% back with the application to only two passengers; never mind 125%. I'm calling this morning to have them take the credit back off and put in for 100% refund. It's the only way I can get back to "100%" applied to my next cruise. Sneaky and ridiculous. If you didn't pay for the 3rd or 4th passengers in the first place, why divide up the fare for the credit! You are just screwing over families for the benefit of your pockets!

We received our 125% for the onboard credits, which was correct, but still have not received the remaining balance to the cruise fcc that we were shorted. Giving them one more day before calling.

I hope that was incorrect if that is the case I want my money back, I always plan everything in advance
Agree. Us too. When I called originally back in March when our April cruise was cancelled, I asked the rep about the 125% OBC. He said we'd get a seperate credit number/email that can be used for anything. No disclosure in the email or by him that it was only good for being onboard and not ahead of time.

Same letter here too!

We received our FCC today too. It is for a 3 night Mariner cruise and the amount was less than half of what we should have gotten. Just crazy!
This is simple math. Cruise cost total, minus taxes & fees, times 125%. It’s not rocket science.
Exactly!

Our group of ten received our FCC's for our canceled April sailing on Freedom. With just my booking, cruise fare was 3370 (taxes and port charges were already refunded). With the 25% extra, we should be receiving 4212. We received three individual credits of 469 each which is only 1407 and grossly short of what we are due. The others in our group had similar small credits on their booking numbers and not anywhere close to what they paid. Anyone else having this same issue?

Assuming Gatorade/Powerade/Vitaminwater under 17 oz is ok?

I've stayed in 1406. No noise. No breeze either. Gets hot on the balcony.
And it's funny that it was mentioned to book a 3rd and have a no show. We always are 3 and book a 4 JS (or GS). Friends of ours wanted to book an OV for Freedom in April and come with us. They were 3 but Royal would allow them to book an OV unless they were 2 or 4. If they wanted 3, they were only allowed to book a JS (yes I faked this booked to confirm this was the case). So they booked a 4 with a 4th and will just have a ghost show up. And it was about 1k cheaper for 4 than 3. Made me think of all the times I booked with 3 and what I"ve paid extra for the 3rd. By that, I mean I believe the first two are more when you book 3 than would be if you book 4. So basically they "tax" you for leaving that 4th berth empty.

Anyone have a connection? Seems every other ship in drydock has someone working there that posts pictures. Haven't seen one of Freedom yet.

DW and I will be on Freedom mid April and would be in line for our first block. Do they do it at the Top Tier event on Freedom on in room? Asking because we are in a larger group with a bunch of people that are just Gold (or it's their first cruise all together). Also curious if we'll get one that looks like the redone Freedom or the current (and soon to be old) Freedom. I'll say the later on that one.

That a different Seaplex design I see?

Add me to hoping for a deal!

Interested in knowing the answer on the question of taking advantage of a price drop post booking as well.

Looking for the same info as well for our April trip.

I cannot fathom Royal returning to the West Coast with a new ship. Doesn't seem like a wise business case.
Royal Precruise Covid Test Question
in Royal Caribbean International
Posted
Thanks all. We are definitely going to wait and see what the protocols are come mid January. If they stay how they are now, the other fam we are going with, who is going to FL a few days later than we are, and our fam is going to get tested up here near Boston beforehand. Well bring a home test with us that way we can get redone within the 48 hours. They can get retested before they fly and still be within the 48 hours. Now our new dilemma is whether we get the kids the shot if they require it for over 5 year olds.
