  1. Type this into google: royalup not selected site:cruisecritic.com You’ll see it’s asked and answered daily. I have yet to see anyone here post good news after boarding. I’m sure it happens but I see this question probably ten times a day on many cruise forums, and so far none of them that I saw said they got it.
  2. Starlink on Symphony at PortMiami is fine — 6-9 mbps down and up, latency is 47 unloaded but 2 seconds under load. Tried it in JS 8640 and it is very usable early on. We are both going to try to work Monday and see.
  3. While this is true, the majority of cruises are sold through a TA. Also refer to the article I mentioned about. If one cruise line increases fares by say $250-$300 per cruise, it makes them less competitive. The majority of cruisers may use rewards programs but aren’t loyal to one. That $150/pp price hike on travel search engines x a family of 4 will 100% reduce bookings and profits for any line that attempts this.
  4. I would just show up and at the port say she’s a no show.
  5. Is she the primary name on the booking? Was it a comp or casino discount or interline or other discount cruise?
  6. this is a horrible idea because then your TA and other middlemen will get a commission on top of it so the prices will go way up.
  7. Yeah that’s no go for me! I wonder how many ship designers got fired over that!
  8. Aha! I snagged a recent paid upgrade to 10240 for February but I keep watching hoping a nicer suite opens for cheap, lol!
  9. In Miami on Symphony in October we were non suite and boarded within 10 minutes of entering the terminal!
  10. If Royal had a “Pinnacle” phone number like AA’s Executive Platinum desk, it would endear me to RCCL even more. Cruiseline front line agents and even TAs are among the worst in travel.
  11. thanks! I brought my most recent certified copy for my cruise this Saturday and plan to see how it goes!
  12. I hear if anyone flaunts a gold sea pass card in front of you, they’re good to go!
  13. I can’t for the life of me figure out which birth certificate royal wants. plenty of posts say “notarized” but I’ve ordered 3 and each one is just certified with an embossed “county” stamp but no notary stamp.
  14. Sounds like the only option is to reduce weight on the ship to increase speed, therefore I believe all passengers should toss their long pants overboard and commit to wearing shorts in the MDR and on formal night! If that isn’t enough weight savings, I heard that Pinnacles get priority debarkation so maybe we can debark them all today?
  15. once they can make it so everyone gets 2 small bottles of water and can RoyalUp for fancier gifts!
  16. * canned ** in the event of shortages, we may substitute for other items on this list † gifts do not include mandatory 18% gratuity ⁑ "your" as defined includes "our"
  17. Yes, it's normal, asked often here. You will know on boarding day and they will write you new tags (porters).
  18. I don't believe you can contact the cruise director directly. You can send a letter to RCCL (USPS) tho: Corporate Guest Relations 1050 Caribbean Way Miami, FL 33132
  19. This is the "Gone" part of the GGG sale. You've been warned for 11 years it might happen.
  20. Just have your party all scream "I can't believe there's free (luxury food) over at the (distant restaurant) right now!!!" and when that group flees, you can "oops" their boomboxes into the ocean.
