  1. Hello all, I have been lurking on the RCCL website for the past 4 months checking out prices on a spring break cruise, 8 night on Freedom out of Fort

    Lauderdale and the prices have been fluctuating between $2900-$3100 for

    a Interior cabin for me and my wife and 2 kids(9-12). Now Royal has this special Every 3rd night free and children 12&under sail free. The cruise costs more now than without the specials! $3500. I looks to me that they raised the prices of the cabins before putting out the specials. Is this normal? I love

    RCCL and want to stay with them but they seem to be pricing me out. The same cruise on the NCL ship for 1 less night is $2350. Am I being overly price conscious?

  2. Just off Brilliance yesterday, FABULOUS CRUISE!!! Loved every minute of it.

    Have only 1 small concern. Why doesnt RCCL charge $5 more per booking and

    give free wifi??? Its ridiculous that they wanted $29 per hour for wifi.

    I just dont understand thst at all. Does it cost them more as people use it?

    Maybe I dont understand and someone could enlighten me as to why they do this. Dont get me wrong, I loved the cruise and love Royal and this would never

    stop me from going on a cruise in fact we are planning Alaska for next year. Am

    i wrong??

  3. So... the porter is going to remember you when you come back for your next cruise???

     

     

    Nope, just knowing that I gave him a bigger tip might somehow pay off after I go inside to check in. I could be wrong, but I have never had any problems with bags/tags and the like. Like I said, I just feel better doing that. It might/might not make a difference.

  4. I always give the porter $20. That ensures me(in my mind ) that my luggage will be treated correctly onto the ship. I was in the restaraunt business for 15 years before I got a real job and I always took extra good care of the bigger tippers. Human nature at its best. I always try to give whomever is helping me a big tip at the start. That way they remember you better.

  5. just off the Enchantment two weeks ago and won $500 on a Five Times quarter machine. Played the $1 Wheel of Fortune daily and won nothing, but, as usual, saw several other people hit spins for $1000 toward the end of the cruise. Also heard of someone winning $3000 on a Wheel of Fortune machine. Did MUCH better on 3 card poker!

     

     

    Love 3 card!!!

  6. Hit the Grand Princess for $1750 on .25 machine near the cage. Then later

    that same night hit the 1.00 Wheel machine for 1k. NICE!!! Always play 3 card and Let-it-Ride bonus. One night hit 2 straight flushes and 3 of a kind on the same table(paid for the cruise) I think I saw them throw that dealer overboard later that night. He delt 5 straight flushes and 2 3 of a kinds in 25min. Never seen anything like it before. Will be on FOS in 2012.
