ONBOARD EXPENSE ACCOUNT
Setting Up Your Account
If you did not set up an account during Online Check-In or during boarding in the cruise terminal, you can do so in the Royal App or at the Guest Services Desk on Deck 5. Onboard Expense Accounts can be set up with a credit card, a debit card, or cash. Our ships utilize a cashless system, so your SeaPass card will be the only way to make purchases while onboard. Please note that a temporary hold of $99.75 will be placed on your card to verify funds. Onboard purchases over $100 will generate additional holds. The hold will be released within 3 to 5 business days after your cruise ends, but can take up to 30 days, depending on your bank. You may add other guests to your expense account by visiting the Guest Services desk. A daily limit can be placed on arcade spending. All charges can be viewed in the Royal Caribbean App or on your Stateroom TV. Printed receipts will be provided for each onboard purchase, and a preliminary statement will be delivered to your stateroom on the last night of your cruise. A final statement will be e-mailed to you within 24 hours of departing the ship on the last day of your cruise. Guests on a cash account will need to settle their account at Guest Services prior to disembarking the ship.

HELPFUL TIPS FOR TODAY
Departure Information
Tune in to Channel 7, where your Cruise Director Eric will provide essential information on the departure process in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Avoid the Lines & Save Time
Place a credit card on your account today. A copy of your account will be delivered to your stateroom on departure morning to verify all charges before your credit card is charged.
Play Smart. Swim Smart. Stay Safe. Make a splash at the pool – but keep safety top of mind, too. Although lifeguards are on duty, adult supervision is still required for children ages 12 and under at all times on the pool deck.
Children in Diapers
Due to public health regulations, children in diapers, swim diapers, pull-ups, or who are not completely toilet trained are not allowed in the pools, and whirlpools, or the H2O Zone.
Royal Caribbean Transfers
Will be available at the terminal to get you to the airport right on time. Book yours by noon with Guest Services the day before departure.
Teen Pamper Party
Exclusively for our 12- to 17-year-old guests, join us for an hour of fun and pampering at the spa. After all, you’re on vacation too. You deserve a little spoiling! Only $69. Noon - 1:00 pm, Vitality Fitness, Deck 11
Casino Redemption
Before the end of the cruise, redeem all of your casino chips, tokens or slot machine tickets. These items are not redeemable by mail, so be sure to visit the Cashiers Desk before you head home.
We’re all in this together. Here are some things to keep in mind for the health and safety of everyone onboard.
Safety First with Swim Vests.
Play it safe at the pool, swimming smart and looking cool. Complimentary swim vests are available in 3 sizes designed for children ages 4 to 12. Swim vests are located near the towel station on Deck 11
GOOD TO KNOW
Beat the Rush
Avoid lining up to settle your SeaPass account. Register your credit card on the Royal Caribbean App. No check-out will be required.
Hold Steady with Handrails
Even on the calmest of seas, the ship may shift unexpectedly. Use the handrails located throughout the ship whenever we are sailing.
Be Careful with Doors
Doors onboard to staterooms, the decks, restaurants and other venues are typically heavier than doors back home. Please use caution when opening and closing them.
Lost & Found
Please alert Guest Services if you have lost or misplaced any items prior to your departure. You can use www.chargerback.com to report lost items after you leave the ship. Lost and Found will hold items for 30 days.
Poolside Safety
Splashing in the pool is fun but the pool deck can become slippery as a result. Please watch your step in this area.
Stash the Trash
Kindly dispose of all waste in the bins provided. It is prohibited to throw trash overboard into the ocean.
Our Pipes are Sensitive!
Our toilet system onboard is very sensitive. Please do not flush anything except toilet paper. Thank you!
Safe Departure
Please take a few minutes to check your safe for any valuables you may have secured during your voyage.

FAQ
ONBOARD EXPENSE ACCOUNT
Setting Up Your Account
If you did not set up an account during Online Check-In or during boarding in the cruise terminal, you can do so in the Royal App or at the Guest Services Desk on Deck 5. Onboard Expense Accounts can be set up with a credit card, a debit card, or cash. Our ships utilize a cashless system, so your SeaPass card will be the only way to make purchases while onboard. Please note that a temporary hold of $99.75 will be placed on your card to verify funds. Onboard purchases over $100 will generate additional holds. The hold will be released within 3 to 5 business days after your cruise ends, but can take up to 30 days, depending on your bank. You may add other guests to your expense account by visiting the Guest Services desk. A daily limit can be placed on arcade spending. All charges can be viewed in the Royal Caribbean App or on your Stateroom TV. Printed receipts will be provided for each onboard purchase, and a preliminary statement will be delivered to your stateroom on the last night of your cruise. A final statement will be e-mailed to you within 24 hours of departing the ship on the last day of your cruise. Guests on a cash account will need to settle their account at Guest Services prior to disembarking the ship.
