Same one we did last year? that was Royal Caribbean wasn't it? It was a HUGE upgrade from Carnival..

The one we did last year was Royal Caribbean and it was a lot nicer than Carnival and about the same price

It will be February 27-March 3 2025. I’ve been playing phone tag with this lady all week. Carnivals line that I call in to goes in a very frustrating loop. She called me back today but we were on the boat. I’ll email her again in the morning and try to get her on the phone again.

Guy I work with is a cruiser and gets great package deals if you need help.

 

[Bigbore500r]

Is there a tentitive "attendee" list yet? Post it up!
Im gonna see if this works w/ kids school schedule next year, if so we are probably in

 

[Hardly Satisfied]

Good. I've heard people say why spend the extra money for a balcony because you aren't in the room a whole lot but trust me, you're in there enough for a balcony to make a difference.

Yes it makes a difference but I stubbed my toe several times going in and out

Having trouble booking a boat , because you are currently on a boat......
Now that's first world problems!

Just got off Carnival Radiance Friday. This was my second cruise. Hated the first. This one was a blast. Coming home with some of their cash helped in overall experience!! Catalina was great. Rented a golf cart for an hour and drove around the island. Had great wings at Lua Larrys and had bunch of beers at Marlin Club., which we had basically to ourselves. Steakhouse on ship was good and had thin crust pizza like every day. Heroes sports bar on ship was nice. Kids were in a regular view room with only a window. We had a suite with a deck (a must for me moving forward). Was off ship and to my Tahoe in 20 minutes Friday....

That's Almost the best part...

No boat to put away, no toy hauler to un pack, no tanks to dump, no vehicles to wash, and a handful of laundry to do!

@RiverDiva

When you book with the RDP group, does it put us all in the same area of the ship, or dining, or ?
Or is it just a small savings on price?

I know she said they went with anytime dining so unless you all show up at the same time then that's a no. Where you're room is doesn't really matter its what pool or bar is everyone going to be at

 

[fishing fool]

Fishing fool and wife are booked. Balcony level 8

You can still join under your specials if those are better. You just have to use this lady so that she can connect us on everything. For instance, dining in our group get together, etc.

 

[beerrun]

Mrs beerrun and I are booked

 

[beerrun]

Just something you may want to get at booking is FIRST TO THE FUN they only have around 70 spots but it allows you to get on and off the boat without waiting in the lines

 

[RiverDiva]

WMC and Fishing Fool are booked as well!

 

[Bigbore500r]

I'm booking this morning

 

[Bigbore500r]

Mr & Mrs 500r are booked!

Lets party!

 

[beerrun]

So dumb question but what are the chances we get RDP shirts and get everyone's screen name printed on the back above the RDP logo?

I spoke with Barbie and am trying to figure out how to make this work. Going as a single occupancy room is expensive! lol!

So maybe there’s a married couple on here that both have deals. Dave and I both did. So I booked my room with my Dad on a special and Dave booked his room as a single on a special. My Dad and Dave will just switch spots.

So on the drink package it only allows you 15 drinks a day sounds like alot but once you hit 15 you are done you can only get a drink like every 7 minutes again sounds like who would dink that fast without the drink package i can go to the bar and order a bucket of beers with the drink package you cannot

What do drinks typically cost on board? I can’t drink 15 a day anymore. lol
