Well well well, the cruise planner checkout page is frozen, and I called and the phone rep says he can't even get into the system. He said "don't worry, they're working on it. I apologize for any inconvenience." I'm not holding my breath to actually get the Coco Cay thrill pass for $43.99. Grrrrr. Is anyone surprised? 🤣


I had this happen yesterday when using my IPad.  Moved to the desktop computer and everything worked perfectly

My daughter and granddaughter are sailing the Navigator on Thanksgiving week. When I’m logged into both website and app, it does pull up her sailing, which may be because I have used her login to check things before. When I login as myself, I see lower discounted rates on Refreshment and Soda packages than she sees when she logs in. She’s Plat and I  am D+, so I’m wondering if there is also a bigger discount for C&A status…it’s very strange. Mine shows for Refreshment, $17.99 and she shows $22.99…Soda- mine $6.99, hers $8.99

I always wanted to do that twister boat. The beach break not so much but oh well. Cant book it alone any more. Says some birds and a buffet spread and open bar. Some other animals there on that island.

 

I looked at it after you mentioned it. Looks fun. Of course, I wouldn't mind the buffet & open bar part.

 

One of our favorite excursions is Captain Bob's speed boat & snorkel trip on St. Martin. Fast boat (I think his boats are custom and he just adds engines). They fly. But it also involves snorkeling, beach, lunch, drinks onboard, a stop at Maho to see the planes, etc. We're doing it for the 2nd time in March, 7 years after the first time.

 

I have to find stuff like that so that it appeals to both me and my wife. She's big on snorkeling but doesn't really drink. I can snorkel for a little bit then I get bored. So this has a bit of everything. I can go back to the boat for a beer while she snorkels some more.

Seems like a good sale to me but some stuff close in sold out. Prices good but sold out. People now complaining about the sale .. a few days from now will be saying sold out. And complaining.

 

It all depends on what you're shopping for. We haven't booked an excursion through Royal in forever, don't buy any drink or dining packages, don't buy anything on CocoCay, etc.

 

So I wasn't really looking for much. Happy to save a little on the Mason Jar brunches we had already booked.

I remember the same thing happened about six months ago. Offered extremely cheap specialist dinning but you couldn't complete the purchase

My cruise isn't until April 2025, and when I try to add beverages/dining, it says "amazing experiences coming soon". Am I too early? I just put the deposit down this morning


from my experience, once you get closer to one year out from the cruise, is when the cruise planner options begin to pop up 🙂

Thank you.

I had hoped to purchase during the sale and just watch prices but at least I know it's not "me" LOL

Taking our boys (15 and 13) on their first Royal cruise.. wondering if I should get them refreshment package? My husband and I already have the unlimited bev plan.

 

My boys always got a good value out of the Refreshment package.  Mocktails, Freestyle Machines and Red Bull.  Black Friday pricing is usually the best for that package always.  Although not as great this year on my upcoming cruises.

Just a question, I've got 2 rooms booked.  My son & family (3) will be next to mine.  I originally booked the internet for 3 devices as a Xmas present and it cost $279.83 and averages $13.32 pp/pd.  If I included a 4th for myself the price totals $293.93 for an average $10.50pp/pd.  Will I be able to log on even though I'm in a separate cabin.  Can't recall what info is required to log on.

Yes. The cabin/person that books it needs to create the login and pw but after that anyone on the ship can use it.

Agree with mike. They cant tell who is sleeping in which cabin when it comes to who is using the internet. If you give out your log in to them they can use it anywhere on the ship.

I went through every offering and couldn't find a single thing that was 55% off... 

Internet with 4 devices on Easter Anthems ail shows 55% reduction.🤣

I certainly didn't look at every item but that's the only 55% I noticed on my March, June, and July Wonder cruises. Pretty sure I saw several 50% off items though.
