I guess if there is no choppy water or heavy thunder storms while cruising. The ship should stable. But if encounter thunder storms, i dont think the ship would be stable. Same like when you encounter turbulence in the plane, no matter how big the plane is also can feel it and make you feel discomfort if have sensitive motion sickness. No need to choose interior state room, even if you want to choose balcony class, you should choose those near the center of the ship. ↡ Advertisement 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we booked, already quite full, and maybe the type of rooms we want are not that common... in the end my parents' room was just above ours... wah wanna go there must walk like 70m, take the lift, then walk back same distance to the room... to pass them things or take things from them, means do this twice... siong... 🙂 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time after almost 20 years. Do you have to rent WiFi on board? Can get data roaming signal at sea? Last year I took the Genting World Cruise, first time in my life on a cruise. If your route is similar, then the ship will dock at land almost every day - Port Klang, Penang, Phuket, etc. So if you not paying for the Wifi package which is really slow and good enough only for messaging if available, can consider use Data Passport if on M1 plan or similar for other telcos, or subscribe a autoroam data package to use when docked. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atrecord Supersonic January 13, 2023 Share January 13, 2023 more advice: (for RC) bring your own slippers and toothbrush/toothpaste. They dun provide. if you ask, they will direct you to go level 4 those atas shops buy those furry slippers that costs $30... if got elderly going along, then it can get a bit tricky in that the normal toilets, shower area is inside/on bath tub, so need to step up/in... For sure my mother will have a big problem with it... Fortunately - and we never knew why - when we checked in, my parents were given a room where the toilet is separate from the bathroom, and there is a separate shower area from the bath tub... The toilet and bath are combined in both our room and the kids' room, so the room my parents got were ideal for them (elderly). If getting the wifi package and is planning to max out the devices (we had 3 rooms, and made sure each room got at least one phone connected to the wifi, to stay contactable). Then at nights sometimes wanna use laptop/tablet, so will log out from phone first. Thing is, there is specific instruction on how to log out correctly (when first logged in), and we initially didn't know... we just switched off wifi on the phone and proceeded to login on the laptops/tablet, and this resulted in the wifi kicking out (i think) the first (of 4) devices that we logged in. So the phone with wifi switched off, is still 'logged in' in their count, and one phone got kicked out... this was a problem cos the phone(s) that was kicked out was not aware, and when calling whatsapp, it will just keep ringing (rather then give engaged tone or no dial tone...). It was worse if it was my father's phone that got kicked out - as he doesn't know how to connect back (we helped him with all these). 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lala81 Hypersonic January 13, 2023 Share January 13, 2023 (edited) Top top tip for RC. Everyone Bring a lanyard. Scanning in and out of areas much easier. And don't use a private dns for your handphone. I couldn't access the royal carribean app bookings properly until the next day. By then most of the reservations all gone liao... Zzz. The bookings start 6/8pm? of the cruise start day. Edited January 13, 2023 by Lala81 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heartlander Turbocharged January 13, 2023 Share January 13, 2023 The RC food seems leaps and bounds better than Dream World from the video below The Windjammer food seems much better than The Lido. But my wife now on RC messaged me that it is not that fantastic, think maybe she not in the mood to enjoy lah as very busy this period. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
