    On our Allure cruise last month, I asked guest services where Starbucks was located and she informed me, Cafe Promenade literally was the same thing. She said, "save your money, the coffee IS Starbucks". I am a coffee snob and we had the deluxe drink pkg so it was nice to get our quad Americano each day.

    You can get free cruise offers without tiering up in the casino. My wife got over 500 points on our first RC cruise. Nowhere near the 2500 points. On the ship, she got $100 off on our next cruise. Shortly after getting home, we got an email offering her a free stateroom on select dates and sailings. Pretty good variety of options. By the time we decided what we wanted to do, we got another free offer for March sailing options. Plus, we noticed her $100 off offer had increased to $200. Just recently, we got free offers for April. Bottom line? As long as you play a decent amount, even without tiering up, you will have some great options for discounts and offers. You may not get to choose any cruise you want, but there are enough options that you should be able to find something that interests you.

      @keyman6689 9 месяцев назад +3

      @FrancisSiuChock I believe you need 2500 points to make it to the 1st tier increase. If it's $5 per point, that's a lot of play on penny slots. We took $200 for the 2 of us to play on for the week. We ended up bringing home $100 of it. We had good, consistent play. Playing off winnings a lot. Some ups and downs. My wife got about 536 points, I believe. I had like 468 or so. She's the one getting the good offers, so it seems 500 points could be a threshold. Although I was offered a $75 discount on a cruise. But, I haven't had any of the free stateroom offers. With the offer we chose, we saved roughly 60% on a 5 night cruise on Mariner vs. booking online. Yeah, it's probably not a cruise we would have chosen to book normally, but we couldn't pass up that deal. We're excited for it!

    Fun Fact: We're booked on Jewel next November. Booked while on Voyager for 1015pp (inside GTY). Since it dropped to 985 and RCL repriced the cruise, saving us $120. It has again dropped to 955. But if they were to reprice at that, the total would *increase* by 200 bucks because they've increased the tips and taxes/fees. So a lower room rate doesn't apparently always mean savings.

    Couple of more tips: Just got of WOS last week and found out not only you can get Starbucks Beverages from Café Promenade with the Refreshment Package, you can also get them at the Vitality Café which was in the Spa/Gym area. Also, WOS had a Smoke-Free Casino where The Attic and Studio B are located and was good to be in there without that strong smoke smell in the larger Casino. I did the Izumi Lunch and was wondering why I got half a sushi roll when it was considered a large plate for the fixed menu but now I understand. Good thing I got 40% off that fixed price when I reserved the lunch before the cruise.

    I found out about Club Royal's comp'd cruises system in 2017. Haven't paid regular fare for a Royal Caribbean cruise since. Now 20 comp'd cruises later. I think I have enough long term data to say that the amount of money I've lost in the casino to get my 20 comp'd cruises in the last 6 years is only about 40% of what the cost would've been had I booked the same cruises on my own. With that said you need to really understand the comp system and how to take full advantage of it.

    Thank you for discussing sunscreen application! I've found I burn if I start off with the spray sunscreen, but don't burn if I start off with the lotion sunscreen. I believe most of the spray sunscreen gets blown away so you don't end up with as much on your skin. I still pack the spray to reapply sunscreen to the tops of my feet and legs if they have sand on them, because trying to use sunscreen lotion on sandy skin only seems to work as an exfoliant skin scrub.

    Here's a little fun thing I do with the Casino. Cause I hit Prime and do get the free Cruises.
    But first, like Matt said. Gambling is a RISK! I've honestly only been ahead 1 time in all the cruises I've been on. But at the same time, I make sure I have a limit on when I need to stop!
    Now what Matt didn't mention on the Free cruises people get, is that they are for free for at least 2 people. But what I do is I go by myself. Because I do, I get double the Crown and Anchor Society points. I've been on 13 cruises with Royal and I'm 2 cruise away from being Diamond Plus.

    I'm old school - I ALWAYS print a copy of my SetSail pass and bring it along. That way if the app malfunctions OR my battery dies, I can still board quickly and easily. I also laminate my luggage tags and use rubber loops to attach them to my suitcases. Popup showers are common in Florida, and I've seen those folded paper tags get quite soggy as they're being loaded onto the baggage carts. How long will they stay attached once they're sopping wet and they start jostling with all the other suitcases? It's anyone's guess, but I don't want to be that guest whose bag ends up misdirected because the staff couldn't find or couldn't read my luggage tag!

    I have done considerable research on Royal Caribbean casinos and Club Royale. At firstt I was pretty excited, but then I found many people complaining that they got much fewer points that they expected for what they gambled. It appears that Royal Caribbean does not track guest's points accurately on table games, as it depends on the average bet value and time spent playing, specially at the most crowded times. I think I will stay away of the casino until they fix that.

    • @kosttoomuch

      Yup, I used to do this on another cruise line, making friends with dealers/pit bosses is your best bet. Personally I dislike spending a significant amount of time in the casino while on vacation and my financial situation has changed so I prefer just paying out of pocket. For the other cruise line it was around 10k passing through the casino per free 7 day cruise offered, which playing blackjack you barely lose anything.

    I just doubt the cruiseline would spend the extra money adding this option the website, just to save customers money, therefore lessening the companys profits.
    If too many people watch specific flights, the price goes up. It would be the same here, I would assume.

    $3.00 = 1 point and you need 2,500 points. That's a lot of money.

      $5 per point in slots. I have 10,457 points so $52285 through machine but have only lost or spent out of pocket $387. In return I have 3 cruise booked included a Sky Class suite and receive 1-2 monthly free sailing offers where I only have to pay tax. Plus the free annual cruise coming up. So it is a risk but can pay off.

    @10:00 So, to get a free cruise, I'd need to spend (at $3-5 per point) somewhere between $7500 and $12,500 to qualify? Don't see the margin there. Even with the "free" drinks in the casino, paying the couple hundred for the cabin and the drink package would be a better investment. Unless, of course, you're going to be gambling in the casino anyway, which we're _not._

      Not exactly. We spent about $2500 total in September on Allure in the casino and both my husband and I reached Prime status. You just keep playing what you win back into the machine. It's not necessarily all out of pocket. If you put in $100 and win $1200, put that $1200 in winnings back in the machine. Keep doing that and, as long as your luck holds out, you'll earn Prime status with free cruises and free drinks without spending much out of pocket. We have taken 2 RC cruises already and have 3 more booked. All have been comped casino cruises earned with our $2500 out of pocket investment. These cruises include a Junior Suite and a Sky Class Aqua Theater Suite. Not bad for our small investment! You just have to hope your luck holds out in the casino!

      Your scenario assumes a total loss. You're probably going to win money along the way, which means you have extra money to gamble. Remember, it's based on the money you're wagering, regardless of if it's your cash or money you won.

    • @kelpy_0
      @kelpy_0 9 месяцев назад +1

      Your math isn’t right. We only spent about $500 and recycled our money (as in we never cashed out) so say we got $700 spent and we get cruise offers constantly and last year we went on 3 cruises just off the status we gained on our first cruise.

    I disagree with having your sign and sail card on your phone. I'd much rather print it out and put it with my other documents. I never use my phone for my airline boarding pass either. Ive seen a couple of situation where the persons phone went dead and one guy dropped is phone and shattered it right in the airport. I know its convenient, but I refuse to rely on technology for important documents...

    Almost all my RC cruises, and unlimited drinks, are free through the casino. Yes, I may lose money in the casino, but I would gamble even if I paid for the cruise, so it's totally worth it. We budget a certain amount for gambling, and stick to it. The only problem is that we used to get lots of offers for free cruises in the mail, and now we hardly get any, so it's harder to accrue those points. They seem to be catering to new cruisers now and cutting back on perks for those who are "loyal to Royal".
