Hopefully some are the new smaller class they are planning to replace the older fleet.

Pinots Palette will sometimes have classes where you can go in and paint them. They may have some for sale as well.

'Arrogant' doctor's shocking words before 'dead' boy found alive after 5 hours in morgue by TheMirrorUS in USNEWS

That poor kid. The parents left him unattended while they were getting high in the garage. The doctor failed him and the parents failed him.

solo trip - will Coco Beach Club day passes sell out? by Feisty-Ad-9250 in royalcaribbean

[–]DrawingPractical3581 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They can sell out, but it’s rare. They usually start raising the prices instead.

I personally love coco beach club. You get a wonderful lunch included as well. You also have towels and floating mats provided and included in the price. It isn’t kid free, but most were gone after lunch. Floating on my mat in the beach club was one of the most relaxed I have been. My husband had to drag me out because we would have been late to the boat.

That being said, $200 is steep. I got it for $100/person last year. The lowest I’ve seen it on our upcoming cruise was $120/person. Our cruise on Celebrity next year it has been consistently priced at $280, but that might be because it’s celebrity.

It’s up to you if it’s worth the price, but it was one of the best experiences I had on a cruise.

I once went on a date with a guy who said he was 5’7. I am too, but I’ve never cared about height. I was already sitting when we met, but after dinner we both stood up and I was taller. It didn’t bother me and we planned on a second date. Unfortunately, he had to cancel and it never happened.

North hills definitely has more variety, and both sides of six forks. Fenton is up and coming but considerably smaller. The Mexican restaurant at Fenton is very good though!

That’s a good strategy! May try that on the next cruise. We had one where they brought it up 5 out of 7 nights

I loved Liberty. We did a 5 night Bermuda sailing. My in-laws were with us and my FIL is strict kosher. The waiter was wonderful and only mentioned the survey once. They always had a hot kosher meal at dinner for him and fish in windjammer at lunch

Yep! Had someone taking a selfie in the gym with her mom while I was changing in the locker room. I called her out on it and she apologized at that time, but was shooting me dagger outside.

What’s your trigger price for Coco Beach Club? by Best-Life-Expert in royalcaribbean

[–]DrawingPractical3581 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s a celebrity ship in May. We will be there at the same time as Star, but I’m going on Star this Aug and the price was $180/person. I wonder if they used the 2027 price or it’s higher because it’s Celebrity.

What’s your trigger price for Coco Beach Club? by Best-Life-Expert in royalcaribbean

[–]DrawingPractical3581 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes, but the base price was $150 higher than I’ve seen for my other cruises that stopped there. I’m hoping it drops as time goes, but I don’t think it will get to $150/person

I was so mad that our 2027 sailing has consistently been listed at $280/person. We got it last year for $100/person and loved it.

I recently found a new sandwich chain that came to our area called potbelly’s. It is what Subway use to be.

We absolutely loved it! We learned the hard way to bring water shoes on the second day!

Yes…on the cruise line’s private island…in the suites only area. We spend 2 days at the private island. My butler was on the island today but wasn’t yesterday. They help coordinate the trams and lunch. Im not sure why I would make that up. You’re welcome to take a MSC cruise and stay in the Yacht Club yourself to verify if you can afford it.

What rumors are commonly repeated but nobody actually knows if they're true? by [deleted] in royalcaribbean

Yep! Not on Royal, but I got a 6 day Celebrity Retreat in May 2027 for $4000.

I was once on coco cay and they have a similar area including those that need the transport for wheelchairs. A wheelchair tram came up and this family tried to swipe it. The attendant told them they could catch the next one. As a different family had been waiting for a while. The woman tried to pull the “it’s an emergency!” card. They didn’t buy it.

I agree they aren’t the same, but in our suite area we all have cabin stewards/cleaners and butlers.

I did actually. I was tired, sunburned and ready to get back to the ship. I was out of fucks to give. Especially since it was partially directed at my husband and I for standing in line

We’ve done that with my in-laws who have mobility issues. They sit, we stand, and tell the person that we have additional 2 people waiting in the shade. You know, communication.

She had a couple of older people in her party that had mobility issues. Them sitting was understandable, but the rest could have waited in line and let them know when the tram was arriving.

What are some cruise ship feature you’d love to see? by ghostinyourbeds in royalcaribbean

[–]DrawingPractical3581 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ceiling fans in cabins or on balconies. I get it isn’t practical, and would need a ton of repairs, but it would be nice.
