I have a friend on next Saturday's 8 night, he wanted to know if they have two formal nights or just one?

Thanks,

I love cruising so I would go in a heartbeat, but it was a bad decision there are many people that would not consider cruising because of the news coverage.

We used Downy Wrinkle Release it worked pretty good

I used my wife's flat iron on shirts sleeves, not easy and poor results, but well it's not designed for that.

I called today Independence of the seas

Unlimited

One device $15 a day ( $105 a week)

Two devices $10 a day ($140 a week)

Thank you for sharing, I personally like these older ships.

If it's Royal it must be really high, LOL

Because I have three coworkers that make 1/3 of what I make and they have only been on one cruise and it was RCI and they look down on Carnival like its for poor people

Good to hear you had an awesome time.

Did you get the Internet plan, and it is still 140 for two devices?

Thanks

We always buy just the medical plan from an online company.

I called my employer's health Plan they also cover with limitation.

Buy it's the peace of mind.

pscruzinboyz thanks for posting, that is good move for Carnival I hope Royal does take note.

Well I find $ 210 over priced for two devices.

The 140 for two devices was a price point that I didn't feel I was getting over charged .

Another reason to consider other lines .

Just yesterday I purchase one with my GoPro Hero 4, while there 3 more people got one, I expect to see many more on our upcoming cruise. :)

Good my wife and daughters will like that.

Thank you for posting, we are on in 26 days.

Now that I know how long it takes to get your laundry back, three days!

I will not consider a cruise longer than 7 days without laundry facilities.

It's a nice tradition at sea, I wish the marketing team would consider it.

But I understand only small percentage would go.

Does anyone have any updates?

At least two companies have received U.S. government approval to operate ferries between Florida and Cuba, their executives confirmed Tuesday.

6 from cruise ship hospitalized, Miami-Dade Fire Rescue says

From a local tv news

The restrictions that were eased have nothing to do with cruise travel.

Correct cruise travel was not addressed nor was normal airline travel other than restrictions for general travel still not valid, but like Washington Post reports today:

"But—and this is a huge but—prospective travelers will no longer have to obtain a specialized license from the government, which seems to pave the way for a future in which leisure travel is more common, if not completely legal."

Thank you both,

Where do these secret stairs take you ?

Royal Caribbean International announces new Amenities Packages for 2015

 

Miami, FL, 6/17/2014

 

Royal Caribbean International (RCI), the second largest operator of cruise ships in the world has announced that beginning in 2015 that it will offer to passengers various, luxurious amenities packages for the cabins. No longer will soap, shampoo, robes, slippers, towel animals, etc. be provided, instead guests will be able to purchase the fine amenities that they desire.

 

There will be several levels of packages, from ones that provide the basics of soap and shampoo, to ones that include conditioner, shower cap, sewing kit, hand cream, body lotion and more. Additional packages will include one that features robes and slippers, along with nightly turn down service, towel animals and a Godiva chocolate on the pillow.

 

Bathroom amenities will be manufactured for Royal Caribbean by the prestigious Cheetham & Steele of London.

 

No prices have been announced yet, but a spokesperson for RCI has stated that the prices will be "reasonable", and suggested that the basic package of just soap and shampoo will be around $5 per person per day, and the most extensive package at around $50 per person per day.

 

The RCI spokesperson added, "we are also considering bedding packages, where the guest can choose between mattress, sheets and pillow types; from just the basics to ultra luxurious, featuring 300 thread count sheets and memory foam mattresses. We are currently in discussions with the century old manufacturer of quality bedding Yoora Sukker of Germany."

Well done , that's funny.

Sorry great experience here.

I am going to have a great cruise, but

No cheap shampoo

No midnight buffet

No after dinner mints

No irons down the hallway

But the number one disappointment is no goodie basket.

Pretty soon bring your own box of tissues,

I wish I could order a really nice basket of free samples, so I don't have to hear my wife make a comment, Carnival always give us a goodie basket.

I was just told by customer service no self-laundry with iron on Vision of the Seas, is this correct? I had done search about month ago where someone said vision class ships have one in deck 2, but she said that is not the case. I like to iron my shirts for MDR.

Is the customer service person correct?
