Please guide me thru the APP.

Agree. Funny, the last few times that I asked Casino desk for repricing, the agent stayed online until I received the revised invoices.

Can't, because I'm not sailing on Symphony. I've got a sailing on Anthem in about 29 days and it still shows the old menus.

Not thrilled and I wish the poster would have shown/uploaded the other nightly menus.

Thanks, you said it for me. I guess lack of funding and adverse are on the opposite side of the spectrum.🤣

Lack of IT funding is one of the main issues with Southwest Airlines cancellations.

Mine was not so much interruption, but cancellation due to my wife being in the hospital. Royal reimbursed me 50% of fare less the $100 cancellation fee (NRD). Put a claim via Chase CC (Allianz was the insurer) for the trip interruption and cancellation benefit. After providing proof of the hospital stay and medical issues, I was reimbursed for the amounts that I was exposed to. It took about a little over a month, and this was during the Pandemic.

I'm not saying that they have a great IT system. For instance, I booked 4 cabins while on Oasis in December and it took some 45 minutes to an hour for completion. Don't understand why their system simply populate the necessary information by entering the individual C&A #.

Thanks. It is still strange as it was a family cruise.

Not sure what ships you have been on, but I found none of the problems that you indicate. Since sailing opened up, I've been on Mariner, Oasis (2X), Allure and Anthem (2X). The only delay that I experience is when I order a drink in the WJ, theatre or other entertainment venues and the pool area.

Maybe you can clarify something for me. While sailing Oasis in early December, stopped ty the Next Cruise Desk and wanted to book 4 cabins for a future cruise. I was told that I was only allowed 3 and needed approval from a supervisor for the 4th. Is my situation different than yours as you mention being able to book 4-6 sails at a time. I found the limit being placed as strange.

Happy Hour in the DL was in the 3-3.5 hours.

I remember when there was only a D event and only got some cheap wine and pretzels and or peanuts. Beer was extra. Just the cash benefits that I accrue from being D+ is real money that I save from the balcony cabin to solo supplement. I never expected to get into the CL because the invite was quite rare. Only twice (Quantum & Anthem) in some 40+ sails have I had the opportunity to see it listed on the C&A welcome letter.

I think we are confusing between miles earned and the perks needed each year to retain certain a level or benefits. United for one, the miles earned/accrued no longer expire, however, in order to maintain a tier level each year, one needs to earn certain # of miles. From a Royal perspective, Casino Royale one needs X number of points each year to retain a certain level, eg. Prime = 2,500 points. At the beginning of year, it begins at 0. The tier levels are distinct from the C&A levels and accrue add'l benefits. eg. unlimited drinks in casino, discount on internet package, free cruise(s), etc. Casino Royale year starts April 1 and ends March 31 of following year.

I've got a group of 8 sailing on Oasis in August and had no problem booking specialty dining. Are you sure the other cabins/reservations are linked. When you bring up your booking, do you see their reservations #, etc. Even though I asked the Royal agent on board when I booked 4 cabins to link them, they were in essence not linked. I had to manually enter their reservations # by clicking missing reservations.

Isn't this a similar of another poster that posted similar gripes about a month or so back. With the possible once a day cabin cleaning I'm waiting for gratuity topic to be resurrected.🤣

It looks some $4-5 higher per restaurant than on my February Anthem sail. Not sure how much higher they can go. I guess the demand is there, plus it's a new ship. The MDR menu shown is the current and not the test menu.

We saw Frankie and the Dreamers (Jersey Boys/Frankie Valli) and Beatles Celebration on our Anthem Easter sail Both were fantastic performances but especially with Frankie. Received standing ovation on 2 nights. Kids in the audience were going bonkers. Ps. The wigs worn by the make-believe Beatles left a lot to be desired.🤣

Are the menus the new or the present ones. I'm on the February 4th sail and the APP still shows the original menu.

Keep in mind that Royal is not changing the menu because it's stale or repetitive.

Mamma Mia is on the Allure and I believe Grease is on Harmony. Don't know about Hairspray. Anthem has "The Gift" as its production show.

My problem with the serving of Ice cream in the MDR its half melted by the time it's served--but still delicious. Give me Dairy Queen soft serve with a chocolate topping (brown top).

My father used to make braciola from tripe in a wonderful meat sauce/gravy. Simply delicious.

I still have a fanny pack and lots of Casino key chains.🤣

Yeah, but we non-pinheads have to order from the kiddie's menu.😂
