Good info here. I normally travel solo, and never eat in the MDR, but going with family in Dec., and will make a point of seeing where our table is when we board. Anything I can do to alleviate more work for the short staffed ship, I will gladly do. Right to the table it will be for me.

My free gift is 37 now 🤣🤣🤣

As long as it takes you to walk to nearest bar, once you step on ship. Show your boarding pass until you get your sea pass cards at cabin.

Expand to other countries and continents. If Fall of 2023, either a TA or a TP. Both are amazing. Have done several of both and have a TA planned in Oct. and a TP planned in April. Do you have the time, or are limited on days?

I get confused because everybody always says boarding time. It’s check in time, right? Boarding could start at anytime, depending on what might or might not happen on the ship. I have been in a couple of situations when boarding didn’t actually begin until 2pm, because of inspections.

Depends on where you are sailing from. I am sailing from Barcelona and the 270 rule is in effect for a booster. If you are sailing from US, no boosters required. You can find this info on the Royal website.

You pay for it when you purchase it online.

Let’s not get into the discussion about whether or not to get your kid vaxxed. It is nobody’s business what people decide for their own child. The issue is, Royal changed this protocol AFTER final payment.

Yes, I am on Wonder TA out of Barcelona. The cruise line only recommends booster, but Spain requires it since I am over the 270 days. Of course, Royal does not mention that. I have to go directly to a Spain website for their requirements.

The cruise line recommends. I think it depends on what the country requires.

So you don’t need to have your last shot within 270 days to enter Italy? I’m leaving from Barcelona and will need to get a booster to enter Spain, since I’m 270 days over my last vax. I’m not boosted either, but if I need it to enter Spain, I’m waiting for new one to come out.

All at once. Once you log on the first time, it counts 24hrs from then.

I’m seriously wondering if this was a typo or mistake. We have already made final payment, and many on this sailing have kids. I don’t have any, but I would be livid that it changed 2 months before sailing. I would bet Royal is getting a lot of phone calls right now. There are also other TA’s besides Wonder.

First, S&S and Surf will always be more expensive on board. There have been threads recently figuring out cost savings if D or D+. You will get one 24 period free, being Diamond. Since your days you need internet will then be 5, count on the ship price being at least $5-7 more per day than pre cruise price. Since you won’t be able to have any access in port, unless you find a wifi spot, do the math. I think the pre cruise price will save you money, but not a lot.

Had the same issue checking for price drops on my Navigation New Years sailing for this year.

I travel solo and love sea days. I have the Wonder TA coming up in Oct., and then also the Ovation 18 night TP in Apr. I did a TP a few years ago, 24 nights with 18 sea days. I like to bring some crochet and cross stitch with me, and normally don’t treat sea days any different than a usual day at home. I also load movies, or TV series, and books on my IPad. Sometimes I might go to some trivia games, or other things that interest me. Im not a big crowd person, so having my own entertainment is essential to me.

Are they on your cruise planner, and you can’t book them? Usually once they are on cruise planner, you can book. When is your cruise? Sometimes they will load tours several months in advance, and some only a few months. There is really no set time.

I have been on Ovation and love her. Finally, after moving these cruises for 3 years, I will be sailing a B3B on the Ovation, starting Mar27/2023. SP, NZ, and TP. I choose Ovation.

I thought late night clubs were open to 18 and over, but no drinking. When did this change? It’s been a long time since I have been clubbing. @lauraingallsYou didn’t say what ship, but some have Boleros which has salsa dancing.

It was painted in April to celebrate the 60th anniversary, and will be celebrated for 6 months. It will probably be a different color if you visit again. 😉

Yes we did. We, up here, don’t like to many hot, sunny days, especially me….I was up at 0430, opening everything up from the hot day yesterday 🤪 And we may get some rain today. LOL Have fun on my fave ship. Won’t be back on her until March for a B3B out of Sydney (finally, after moving them for 3 years).

Not really the original, but saying it is, brings the tourists flocking in 😉 ”The first Starbucks store was located in Seattle at 2000 Western Avenue from 1971 to 1976. They later moved the café to 1912 Pike Place.[16] During this time, Starbucks stores sold just coffee beans and not drinks.”

I looked back on my Roll call and found this, but replace Wonder with Voyager for your ship. Not sure if they will get back to you, since your sailing is close. Worth a try. Wonderevents@rccl.com. provide your name and cabin #, dates you wish to use the Room, Number of people you estimate will be playing & times ( example 10 AM to noon )

Many people call it Left, Right, Center, but the acronym is for Left, Center, Right. It’s a dice game.
