Just checked - still not available to book - rang RCI and they said we will have to book on ship !!!!! Where will we have to go to book? How will we know what is on and what to book for? Sounds like a stress situation waiting to happen !!!!! I guess as long as I have a cocktail in my hand I’ll cope ha ha.

Thanks for all the replies great fun reading them all - wait for it to stop especially made me chuckle :D:').
Almost packed and ready to go and very much looking forward to our cruise on Allure (first time FL and Allure) and especially looking forward to whatever the weather brings :D:D

Thanks for all the helpful and fun replies - I have found only 2 packet macs (there are 3 of us ! We will have to play rock,paper,scissors ha ha )
Then I will follow the crowd going to the nearest bar :'):'):')

Ha ha I’m loving your replies thanks.:D
Good idea about the poncho - I think we might have a couple of those at the bottom of a drawer somewhere (unopened from a previous excursion) I’ll get searching!
Keep posting the good ideas

Ok I’m after suggestions. I’m quite happy whatever the weather happens to be but we have booked a cruise in the ‘rainy season’ - what do you do when it rains ?
Still go to the beach regardless / wander about in the rain getting wet (no coat - never take one to the Caribbean!) / find a quite corner to read and people watch or put the drinks package to good use :D:D.
Just wondering :)

Thanks. Question about muster drill - sometime the drill has been done inside, other ships on deck and sometimes with/without life jackets. How is it done on Allure? Reason I’m asking is that as it’s a huge ship everyone will be going the same way and I just want to try to plan what to do before/after to avoid the crowds.

Love the reply about collect towels at 8am :'):'). We are sailing on Allure in a few weeks - how does the towel system work - do you have to show your pass, do you have to return same day - we were thinking of getting towels day previous for early excursion.
Thanks Gill

Wine up to $12 per glass. Show your card to get fresh squeezed OJ.
Thanks Bob, I’ve been looking at the wine price lists posted by other members and noticed that a lot are over $12 - will I still be able to order those but just pay the extra.
Thanks Gill

Not forgetting the sometimes overlooked daily 'shooter' at dinner! Mostly Baileys based, but included in your drinks package. I've put them in the after dinner coffee before now too ha ha
Oh I like that idea :D. We’ve booked a drinks package for the first time - sailing on Allure in a few weeks time. How does the wine work - is it all wine selection up to a certain $ or only a select few by the glass? Also fresh OJ - if having breakfast in MDR do you have to show your card to get the proper stuff !
Thanks

Ok what is a labadoozie ? And is it good ha ha. A terrific review, thanks. Not long till we go I was excited before I read your review now I can’t sit still with excitement ha ha.

Thanks for posting that, made fantastic reading BUT - Oh my ! Oh my ! How am I / we going to be able to choose what to do ha ha. I am so excited !
On an earlier post someone mentioned that they offered 50% off speciality dining on the Wednesday I think - did they do that on your cruise?
Gill
-
18% is charged on the cost of the package at purchase.
Thanks
Gill
-
looking at beverage packages - is the 18% gratuity payable on the package at purchase or is it charged on every soda etc purchased?
Thanks I was getting confused !!!

Hi did they have a carnival parade down the promenade?
Thanks

Hi Gill,
Yes the discount was advertised. Not sure how often it happens but it could be because there were 1800 kids on board and the restaurants were empty every night. We did Chops, 150 and Giovanni's. I did do the beach and snorkel excursion through RCCL in St. Maarten that was excellent. I believe that it was 3 hours and it was perfect amount of time. The martini bar would be the champagne bar. You can get martinis at almost all of the bars. Hope that this helps feel free to ask anything else. Enjoy your trip it will be great.

Thanks for great info. What are your thoughts on Labadee - I have seen a couple of video clips and read several reviews about rocky beach under zip line, very crowded at Columbus cove and lots of comments about the market !! There are lots who say it is brilliant and others who would rather stay on the ship. I know everyone is different but just curious as to your view and what you did.
Thanks Gill

Hi the 50% off sounds interesting was it widely advertised or did you have to do some searching? Was it for all restaurants we are interested in Samba Grill, Chops Grille - we were going to book the bogo offer. Did you go on any organised excursions at the ports - we were thinking of the 6 hour boat ride and snorkel round the island at St Maartin. Is there a dedicated martini bar on board? What are your top 3 must do on Allure.
Thanks for any info.

Hi do you have the option to share table with other cruisers (we like chatting to other cruisers) or do you have to eat with your own group - there will be 3 of us sailing on Allure in September.
Thanks

Hi has there been a price increase in shore excursions? We are sailing on Allure on 2nd Sept and are just about to book and have realised that they seem to have gone up example a snorkel trip was £45.88 now £52.44. Is this usual, do they come down, is it just because of dollar rate changing. Gill

Warning to other fans of Wine Flights. The choices have been reduced to just 5, and none of those include Ice Cuvee, which I understand is very popular. Also, the measures have been reduced from 3 x 125ml to 3 x 100ml, even though Horizon states 125ml. Oh, and the price of each wine flight seems to have increased also. We were very disappointed.
That is a shame, we love the glass house - do you remember if they still had Little Eden on the menu - I had a look at the wine menu on the web site, but alas i couldn’t find it !!! It looks as if we will have to start at the beginning again ha ha

Hi just got off Azura
Had châteaubriand on the menu.
Enjoy:)
Thank you so much for that - I’m drooling already ha ha and we’ve got another week to wait !!!! Hope you had a great cruise.
Gill

I have been looking at new menu and don't see chateaubriand on either menu - has any one been on Azura recently - is it still an option.
Also trying to find out if glass house still has Little Eden moscato available - it became a favourite after trying it on one of their wine tastings :D
Thanks for any info

Thanks for the replies, now all I have to decide is with or without catamaran ha, oh it's a hard life !
