Yes! And possibly talk about priority boarding as that’s what I came to this video to explain and I didn’t hear anything about it. Still a informative video!
We just cruised on the Freedom of the Seas and we couldn’t have been happier with our experience! Also zero covid cases on the cruise. Boarding was an absolute breeze! Our scheduled check in was 1:30 but we just came straight from the airport and were on the ship eating lunch by 11:30 I think. It was incredible! And getting off the ship (though sad!!) was a breeze too.
All great tips. I wanted to just add this: As soon as you get on the ship, reserve the shows. Sometimes the app doesn’t work, so call into the box office or guest services and reserve the shows the first day! Shows fills up and you don’t want to miss any of them!
Your videos have been very informative and entertaining. The videos have made me seem like an expert without cursing too much in my life. Thank you so much.
I used to work for Port Everglades. The big tip of being at THE check in time is important. There is no where to go around the terminals to wait and the port staff will enforce RC's time requirements
One thing we found challenging on our recent cruise (we disembarked Mariner of the Seas on Feb 8, 022) was that there weren't reservations available for the shows in the app with the exception of the ice show. The announcements were constantly suggesting you reserve tickets through the app, but you actually couldn't. Awfully frustrating given the mixed message. We navigated it, but it was really confusing...
You know what would be a decent idea if the cruise port accepted rental car returns so the ppl that’s flying in and renting a car could save time and just return the car at the cruise port and board the ship. Yeah I know that’ll take a lot of space away from ppl driving to the cruise port but it’s just a thought
We got to the port to board Oasis 2 weeks ago, and the wifi in the building was out. We couldn't access 2 of our covid tests. Lesson learned. PRINT EVERYTHING!
We took our first cruise on Allure of the Seas last month and absolutely loved it. We started in Miami and went to Mexico and Honduras. We can absolutely recommend the Royal Caribbean. Greetings from Germany Nils and Francesca 😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
@@gerridroubay6149 Hello Gerri, yes we have done a lot. Day 1: Miami Day 2: Sea day Day 3: Cozumel Mexico / Sur Eco-Park Day 4: Roatan Honduras / Turquoise Bay Day 5: Mexico / Puerto Costa Maya / Tubing Adventure on Bacalar Day 6: Sea day Day 7: Miami You can also watch our video on our channel, then you can see it exactly. ruclips.net/video/mW2sfide4bg/видео.html&ab_channel=FRANCESCAundNILS I hope I could help. :) Greetings from Germany Nils
Thanks Matt for all those tips. I always follow those but the new ones are great with this situation we have since 2020! I cannot wait to board the Ovation for my Alaska cruise.
I have a cruise coming up in October on the RCI . I called the Support team to ask about the COVID-19 regulations and told me that fully vaccinated guests do not have to have a PCR and can only bring their vaccination certificate or proof.
We were just on Brilliance several weeks back to Cozumel & Costa Maya & chose the early departure back in Tampa on Saturday Morning, it was early & made for a very long day back to SC; we will probably not do the self departure in our next cruise in November. My advice for anyone, unless you don’t mind toting your own suitcases; tag your suitcases & leave them in the Hall the night before you depart. You will thank me later, I won’t do it again; I guarantee you of that. Awesome Time had by all & we cannot wait until then next one.
Wow! Amazing video. So detailed. My mom and I are going on one in 2 weeks, and she can't walk long distance. Rather concerned how far she had to walk through the terminal.
We went on our first cruise last week on Independence of the sea. We had a 11:30 check in time but was on the ship by 11:20. We actually had to wait for the crew to get to the Muster location. LOL. Currently I disagree about checking luggage, Our room was ready when we boarded so we could just dropped off our luggage instead of waiting for it. Also did not like them dropping the bag in the hallway with a bunch of other peoples bags. Currently since they are running with limited capacity they are not selling the same rooms two cruises in a row so the y have all the rooms ready to go even if you are the first one onboard. I know this won't last but take advantage while you can.
Thanks. All great information. I'll be traveling w/my family who are seasoned RCL customers. So, now at least, I won't be clueless about the embarkation process. Can't wait.
Agree on the proctored test. It was so easy and quick. We were sent back to our room to get our sea pass card rather than give our room number last week on Odyssey.
How far in advance did you order the proctor test? Also how many days did you fo it before the cruise? Did they email you the results do you could print it out? Also what is the cost?
I laminated mine before I knew there would be boosters available. If you do have it laminated, don’t worry. The pharmacist who did my booster added a sticker, much like a file label, and wrote on that.
@@miwang3 On 25 May sailing Odyssey of the Seas, rang RC in April and told Covid Test must be Supervised, by a Doctor or full time Health Professional with Date of Test, Lab number or name, name of Health Professional. A handwritten doctor's note is not acceptable
I really appreciate you’re tips because my wife and I are just about to book our cruise on the harmony for the first for my wife’s and I . Plus where taking our girls on there first cruise on the harmony also.
@@RoyalCaribbeanBlog is too.thank you. Where really hoping at least these masks will be gone by summer . We’re coming up on 3 year’s with theses masks . And with us taking our girls first cruise. And we are hearing the numbers are coming down. Hopefully that make a difference. With cruise lines.
You are a lifesaver! I leave in March and thought I was too late to book any onboard entertainment. Thank you THANK YOU for your current, updated videos!
No, you cannot use the test that came from the government because they are not proctored. Which means when you take the test you have to log online to a website and someone watches as you take the test or in other words confirms you took it.
I don't recommend hotel shuttles because of their infrequent schedule, crammed seating, and limited luggage capacity. Paying a few bucks for a Lyft to be on your own schedule and less exposed to other people is worth the cost, in my opinion.
May I add one? I was on Anthem out of NJ in February. We were not aware that we would be outside during the check-in process for 2 hours. While we did bring jackets, we packed them in our checked luggage. My advice: pack them in your carry-on!
Super excited to be sailing next Friday on wonder! Although I’m nervous as this is my first time traveling without my family. I haven’t been on a cruise since 2018, the protocols have definitely changed. My boyfriend and I are coming in from Canada but how can we access the app if we don’t have data/wifi?
I wanted to say that in a way it has been a dream come true with the Cruiselines automating things using the APP , E-Mustering things I have always wanted back in 2012 when I first sailed on Royal.
I am finally going to drive myself to the terminal and also have my own room so I am getting on that ship as soon as possible and leaving as late as possible :))
Great video. haven't been on a cruise since 2005. Things have changed and not just the pandemic. Will they confiscate bottled water and I can bring wine on board?? Could I bring a bottle of booze??? Have no idea where to ask this question.
We booked the Key and thought that entitled us to an early boarding time. There was no notice at that time that it wasn't. We missed the early check in and wound up with a 12:30 check in! We wanted the Key mostly for the early boarding and Chops lunch. Both would be invalid with a late boarding. The Key was $475 for 2 of us! We cancelled the Key and bought the internet for me for $168. Not happy with how this was handled. Royal now has a Notice on the Key ordering form.
Thank you for this!! Do you/does anyone know what time the boarding time actually opens the 45 minutes before? At 12:01?? A certain time in the morning??? Thanks!
Your blog is great . Since the restart (Covid),we’ve been on 2 cruises so far . We’re going on our 3rd on Monday🙋♀️🙋♀️. We’re Pinnacle’s in training 😂😂.
great tips! Generally how long do you have to wait for the room to be ready? also if I bring wine/med/doc in a carry on bag, will I be able to store the bag and enjoy water activities?
Just came back Saturday from the Bahamas on Freedom of the Sea and we didn’t have to prebook shows/entertainment. Wasn’t an option on the app. Everything was open for all. I couldn’t agree more about the carry on bag and all your essential needs. And a change of clothes/swim suite. It took a long time to get our luggage in our room. Great video lots of important information.
does the online check in start at midnight of the day when its supposed to begin? my online check in is on september 8th, does that mean if I check at 12:00am on september 8th I can do the online check in?
QUESTION. i am flying from Orlando to Seattle 2 days before my cruise. I am planning on going to my doctor or Wal Greens to get the covid test done.3 days before the cruise ( Either the day I fly out or the day before). Do I need to Antagin test or the PCR test.? i am 67. What happens if I dont get the results before my cruise. ? What is the earliest I can do the Covid test and still have it good for the cruise. Hope this makes sense. LOL Really do not want anything to keep me from this cruise.
@@RoyalCaribbeanBlog Thank you. I know I will. Last year we did Odyssey and we loved it. I think what I loved the most was that it was low capacity. That big 🚢and Coco cay only for us. Best royal experience.
Matt, thanks for the very helpful video. Last night's live video was great too. You are the best source of RC info out there. Looking forward to your review of the Wonder and we'll be re-reviewing your Harmony video since we're on it in May.
I was thinking the same thing and then totally forgot to set my alarm! I checked in this morning at 7am and got an 11:30 check in time, so not too early!
@@alicia2434 great ship 🚢 a lot of activities in it.I enjoyed zip line.the abbys loop, the aqua theater 🎭 show! Tons of things to do inside the ship! Especially if you are winning in the casino 🎰! 👍😀.. 7 nights is not enough! 😊
What is the most current information regarding pre cruise testing for vaccinated passengers departing out of Venice in September for a seven night cruise
i am about to go on a cruise next month, starting in rome... the whole covid card, vaccination proof, negative test results and whatnot are quite confusing. i have my european vaccination certificate and antigen tests are useless unless you actually have symptoms... so do i really need to pay 100$ or whatever for a PCR?!?
Hi I’m sailing in August.I’ve been reading about it being hurricane season. Was it a good idea to book for August? In the event Of hurricanes being out there will Royal Carribean give me a refund is I decides not to go?
So if we’re vaccinated we can use the at home test? My cruise on freedom of the seas is in about two weeks and I’m trying not to stress myself out about everything i have to do for covid
do you still need covid testing or proof of vaccinations ? hasnt this been lifted? sailing into cozumel from galveston port 4 day cruise closed loop cruise galveston/cozumel back into galveston . please advise. thank you :)
We are taking a cruise shuttle bus to the cruise port. Would you advise us to do the check in & what happens if we are not there at that appointed time?
Matt, in Sydney Australia they would be more rigid in the boarding times on the ship. I was surprised that they were more relaxed with the boarding time over in Miami the 2 times I cruised from there. This was all before Covid-19 though.
We are sailing on July 31st at WOS but cannot complete my online check in yet. Still waiting for my son’s passport. How do I reserve my embarkation time without completing my online check in?
Matt I think time is due for new embarkation video and update every 3 months.
I agree for sure
Ya man!
Yes! And possibly talk about priority boarding as that’s what I came to this video to explain and I didn’t hear anything about it. Still a informative video!

First day while still in port you need to turn off your cellular service or you'll forget! Cellular At Sea is great but $$$$.

I second the at home test. Super easy. Test doesn't go deep in your nose and get results instantly
Wait...you can use those home test kit? The one the UPS mailing out to your home? 4 tests per household.
Also to note. There is two by Abbott but only the one with emed is the approved one
No, you cannot use the test that came from the government because they are not proctored. Which means when you take the test you have to log online to a website and someone watches as you take the test or in other words confirms you took it.
The only problem with check in times is hotel shuttles don’t always match up.
I don't recommend hotel shuttles because of their infrequent schedule, crammed seating, and limited luggage capacity. Paying a few bucks for a Lyft to be on your own schedule and less exposed to other people is worth the cost, in my opinion.

You can only use the abbots home test that is proctored, but yes, that’s acceptable
I know we need to check in on check in day but what is the earliest you can actually check in time wise 730am 10am ?
Don’t need a test anymore right?
do you still need covid testing or proof of vaccinations ? hasnt this been lifted? sailing into cozumel from galveston port 4 day cruise closed loop cruise galveston/cozumel back into galveston . please advise. thank you :)
Regarding printing out the luggage tags prior to boarding- will those luggage tags be available in the app closer to boarding?

Does everyone in the stateroom have to check in separately or can one person check in for everyone in the stateroom?

Matt, in Sydney Australia they would be more rigid in the boarding times on the ship. I was surprised that they were more relaxed with the boarding time over in Miami the 2 times I cruised from there. This was all before Covid-19 though.
We are sailing on July 31st at WOS but cannot complete my online check in yet. Still waiting for my son’s passport. How do I reserve my embarkation time without completing my online check in?
