  1. Many times, the APP and the invoice are not in sync with the actual dining times.
  2. I'm on Anthem March 31 sail and Allure will be there also. I'm not concerned as I have booked 2 Chill Island Beach Day beds. I've also been there when Oasis and Independence were there and did not feel crowded. Not everyone gets off at CC and or Nassau. Ps. Was there on Oasis in August '23 at CC and the water slides were so crowded that my grandkids basically abandoned after about an hour and after investing $150+ pp.
  3. My receipt for the October '24 sail indicates 5:30, but I believe the actual to be 5-15PM.
  4. That’s crazy. I was able to book a table for 8 over 4 reservations in the planner. This is for Anthem sailing on March 31. As backup, email your request rcldining@rccl.com. Indicate ship, date of sail and reservation #s.
  5. This is the 4th on this topic. Tell your son not to get off. By the way, welcome to CC.
  6. I’m having such a hard time getting the system to recognize the C&A balcony supplement discount on recently released itineraries. Forced to call Royal agents and sometimes it takes some 39 minutes for me to explain what it is and then for someone to do a manual calculation. Simply frustrating.
  7. No comparison between the NJ Transit system and the NYC subways. It's the easiest way to get to the Theatre section from Newark Int'l airport and cheaper and efficient.
  8. You can take the mono rail to NJ transit train station and take train to NYC Penn Station @ 33rd street and a walk or short cab ride.
  9. However, if you price too competitive (low), there's an opposite effect. For instance, on my March 31 Anthem sail, I received an e-mail announcing certain senior based discounts. One was the Water Park cabanas at CC for a little over $800. I had reserved 2-day beds at Chill Island, which were being priced at $399 each, but I paid $199 each when originally booked. If I had paid the current going price, I would have cancelled the beds and jumped at the opportunity and booked the Cabanas. In addition, pricing for Hideway Beach were going in the low $20s. Primary reason, IMO, is that it's an Easter sail from Bayonne NJ and there's going to be a ton of kids. Also, don't know if there's another ship visiting the island.
  10. Did you e-mail your request at rcldning@rccl.com
  11. I used Galveston Express @$35 pp each way. Run on the hour.
  12. On my 9 niter on Liberty September’25 sail they added Sydney Nova Scotia.
  13. Q? Will this action cause re-pricing of cruise fare and with the current inflation in cruising prices it may cost more than the original 2X fare.
  14. Also D+. On recent Oasis and Harmony sail the main theatre had the first 3 middle rows reserved and assume that they are for suite Paxs. Also, the Ice show had the first middle 3-5 rows reserved for suites and upper tiers.
  15. You should have no problems if you do an early disembarkation with your bags. The disembarkation process/custom is so much easier now with the Facial Recognition Technology. Newark International is only about 15 minutes from terminal.
  16. I think in addition to the IT issues, many agents are not familiar with some of the rules and benefits. One agent tells me that the DP340 code was Casino benefits. I almost threw up the coffee that I was drinking at that time. Also, when I booked the Liberty sail, it was the C&A folks that advised the agent that the August 21 sail was in the blackout periods. I referred him to the C&A listing of benefits which states the summer blackout dates were from June 15-August 15, but he would have none of it. He reiterated this was a most recent change. Ps, can't fight City Hall .😜
  17. My grandkids loved Chop's and Giovanni's. and not sure they would have enjoyed 150 CP. They enjoyed the atmosphere and the menus. They basically ordered from the adult menu, without a problem.
  18. With all of these complaints and abandoning Royal, I’m surprised they are still functioning. 🤣
  19. I calculated mine, however the agent calculation was sbout $250 cheaper. When the 30/30 promo was in play my calculation on the 2nd pax was right on. However, not so clear with the 60% off 2nd pax.
  20. Yes, I reread the restrictions, but I don't know if there's has been a more recent change to the blackout dates. One agent tells me that there was an update and the new blackout periods, other than holidays and spring break, to be from May 15-September 12. Another tells me that it coincides with the Kids Sail Free promo. Is the C&A desk making up rules as situation come up. The DP340 benefit was not available on the Liberty August 21, 2025 (my preference), but available on the September 18, 2025, sail.
