How many total passengers on this sailing?

I think Ken mentioned earlier that there was supposed to be 5500 onboard.

I saw a video yesterday of someone getting a bagel at the make your own bagel bar?

Anyone know where this is?

I don't want a "supposed to be" number, I want an actual number.  😄

 

Yea, I saw his earlier post.  He said 4500 for 3-day and 5500 for inaugural.

 

So almost 2000 RCI newbies.

Only about 1900 new cruisers.

 

Edit: Well, I see @Another_Critic has covered this.

Mike S.? If so, he is awesome.

Yes that's him. He is great. We had him on the Odyssey and the Wonder Inaugural.

Not sure if you know but you can view what's going on by pulling us up on the RC app.  To do this open your app, go to top middle and click the calendar.   Scroll to the bottom and click Change ship/Dates. When this page comes up scroll to the bottom and click Browse our ships. Next page, Pick Icon then when it pops up pick our date Jan 27 - Feb 3 2024.

I hope this helps.

If you go into the Royal app you can select the cruise date, change it to yesterday and you can see the schedule for each day.

I wonder, is this full guest capacity?

Is it top 30 only or all pins or are you in a suite 

We aren't in a suite. We went to CK as soon as it opened and made reservations for the week. I think the top 30 Pinns are the only ones that can go into the suite lounge.

Hey, Renee !  Forgive me if you already mentioned it (I’m coming in late) but you guys in a full suite ?  Wondering if the high # of Pinns is causing you any access issues.  Good to hear that you were able to get into the CK without a problem.

 

Have a great cruise !

I heard the Crown Lounge was packed during HH, but we didn't go. There are only 55 seats in there. The wait for dinner in CK was less than 10 minutes for a 2 seater. They did have some 4 seaters and up and there always seemed to be a couple of them open when we were there.

Are you getting paper cruise compasses?
 

Once onboard & connected to the ship wifi, use this link…

 

https://minio.rccl.com/compass/cruisecompass.pdf

 

That should give you the daily Cruise Compass in PDF form and you can save them to your phone or iPad.

Yep he will be here all week. By the way I need to meet you and @Ozark_Kid , @ReneeFLL and @FromSea2ShiningSea to put a face to a name and to say thank you. So let’s pick a place for lunch or drinks or what ever y’all want. 

Let me know where and when. Maybe after dinner sometime at one of the bars?

This is the first time in along time we forgot to ask for one the first day. 

Finally got a Peach Daiquiri! At Basecamp bar!

 

Another larger glass than normal.

Not yet, but we only had drinks from the Lime & Coconut during Sail Away and in the Coastal Kitchen.
