That seems to vary with the customers and how many ships are in port. There will likely be some empty spots away from crowds around the pool and South Beach.

njkruzer Posted December 6, 2021 #331 Share Posted December 6, 2021 On the app when I pull up the menus in the mdr for our 10 nt December 30th cruise, for nt 9 it shows venue closed! I doubt that. Not going to worry. Figure they'll still feed me. Just Royal IT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main outdoor pool is midship. Forward of that area is the indoor pool. Just forward of the indoor pool is the solarium. Radio 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an I phone and husband has android, we bought the $1.99 texting on the oasis in October, didn’t work between the two phone, made a few trips to the Voom desk , then it worked once and stopped. On a side note I was receiving texts from home in airplane mode, weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Radio Posted December 7, 2021 Author #338 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Hello everyone and good evening. . . Today was a very relaxing day at sea. I went to the Port/Shopping talk in the Royal Theater to see what was happening. They handed out raffle tickets to all passengers (30 ish) They had the first drawing, and I won. Woohoo. . .I won a Gift Bag from Effy. It was 8 different pieces. That was nice. I stopped into Casino Royale for a bit, and that worked out well. It's too early to tell if Casino Royale will be "Radio friendly". I then went Deck 17 and had a 2 hr workout in the Vitality Spa before I woke up from that dream. My visit to La Patisserie wasn't as good. I think I need to order a different type of Coffee beverage Next time. I was able to watch news for a bit before I got ready for dinner. The sun came out later in the afternoon. The temperatures did get above 60 though, and that was very nice Tomorrow we arrive at Port Canaveral around 2:00 p.m. Here are a few pics from today. Thanks for tuning in. Radio Wonderland Deck 5 Wonderland interior Port and Shopping Show - Royal Theater Hey hey. . .I won a prize.

On deck 14? 2- Is it open for lunch of embarkation day? 3- Do they allow kids 12+ for lunch? Is it the best place to eat lunch on day #1 or do you recommend somewhere else?

I know both were shut down for the last 2 cruises. ALso wanted to know if Solarium Bistro is open for breakfast? Thanks in advance... We were on Anthem the week before (Thanksgiving week), and we saw both WWRY and Spectra. I thought the entertainment was as expected (comedian, juggler, violinist, Beatles Celebration, and Frankie and the Dreamers -- no Royal cast production shows). Service was very good. About 2600 pax; lots of kids (I heard 800!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We and the family are on the Dec. 24 Xmas cruise. Is it possible to determine the anticipated total of booked passengers and of that total how many are children? By the wa, RCL has changed the testing rule for un-vacinnated ages 2-11 starting Dec. 11. PCR before and rapid antigen at check in. You could try calling the crown and anchor number and see if they know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's no longer formal night, it's dress your best or something like that. Just wear what you like. You'll see a range from shorts and t shirts to tuxes.

I doubt that. Not going to worry. Figure they'll still feed me. Just Royal IT. I have found that the menus in the app tend to reflect the current sailing of the ship in question rather than sailings farther ahead. For example, I have a 12-night sailing on Anthem out of the UK next summer and on those sailings there is always a daily pie and curry option. Those are both missing at the moment as well as the venue being closed on the later days, like yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
