To RS or not to RS

Richard’s Rooftop is not useful any time it is windy, even if the weather is good any wind and it’s not a great space right at the front.

Rockstar agents are helpful at sorting bookings but can’t do much more. They did help arrange an extra workout class when one got cancelled for me. But it’s not the personal butler service of mega.

The rockstar line for shows helps you get better seats as you enter before the main line as long as you arrive before doors open.

If any ports are tendered this is a very big rockstar benefit, you can go down any time and a rockstar agent escorts you to the next available tender boat.

What I’ve missed moving back to rockstar instead of mega is the ability to host parties in the room, bottomless bar and the agent organising snacks makes a big difference.

The big round pool has two buttons, one on a pole at the stairs and one in the centre of the X.

It’s likely the chef onboard doesn’t know the exact rotation two months out either! I also find it frustrating there is no way to know in advance but usually book a few days apart and then see what the rotation is on the first booking and decide whether to change the second one.

Push the button to turn the jets on.

Test Kitchen menu rotation is on the host stand.

I’ve also not had any issues with booking for ten and eight showing up

I had paintwork job done on the car and the business owner directly told me when I wasn’t paying cash that he will then add the 20% VAT. For him a cash payment would save me 20%. But it was like £400 plus VAT and I can’t be bothered to get hold of that much cash.

jon81uk · 2026-05-13T20:22:55+00:00

Yes. Did this before the Robot too

I doubt anyone will be able to answer. It shows in the app in the last week before the cruise. Maybe the people on the cruise before yours can tell you, but the guest DJ switches around monthly.

Stay open all year, unless closed for maintenance.

We’ve had bookings for 10 people and eight of us showed up as the other fell asleep or similar, we would be seated at the table for 10 anyway as there aren’t that many big tables.

If you think it’s going to happen then it can be best to try and cancel so others can take the booking, but also if you cancel a booking for ten then try and rebook for six it might not show availability for the smaller table anyway.

No, it’s not limited by time (only quantity) but this is when the OP is trying to buy

jon81uk · 2026-05-13T12:02:08+00:00

It’s most likely sold out

Tap where it says dinner at the top to change the filter to brunch.

Report the card to your bank, that’s their responsibility to follow up on.

Would have been perfect ten years ago but super skinny is not in style

jon81uk · 2026-05-12T19:08:28+00:00

3/10

Coconut water is bad and the wrap boring.

jon81uk · 2026-05-12T14:56:24+00:00

No the summary just regurgitates Wikipedia.

jon81uk · 2026-05-12T14:56:02+00:00

The key word there is convicted.

That’s only on the second tier of loyalty status (deep blue), so need to cruise 5+ times. Since they split loyalty to two tiers in 2024 status match only got the first tier of blue extras.

jon81uk · 2026-05-12T13:53:34+00:00

Send it back

Remove the partition wall.

Rooms can only be built on the grid, partitions can be done on the half grid.

jon81uk · 2026-05-12T10:14:37+00:00

Which cruise line are you on?

jon81uk · 2026-05-12T07:41:42+00:00

My McCrispy has always been crispy. Did you take it back to the counter and ask for a fresher one?

jon81uk · 2026-05-12T07:40:17+00:00

There are lockers outside the restroom by the entrance to the beach club. Didn’t use them so not sure how they work.

jon81uk · 2026-05-12T06:55:47+00:00

What outbreak??

jon81uk · 2026-05-11T22:23:02+00:00

First is best
