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 4. 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.

WELCOME TO SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO
DAILY SNAPSHOT
Tuesday, January 9, 2024 San Juan, Puerto Rico
Puerto Rico’s 500-year-old capital is a history buff’s dream. The Spanish settled this harbor and that influence is still evident, from the fortress walls lining the coastline to the rainbow of colonial buildings. Venture further out from the old town and nature unfolds. You can scale high into the jungled mountains of El Yunque Forest, or keep to the foothills on a riverside horseback ride.

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.

We’re all in this together. Here are some things to keep in mind for the health and safety of everyone onboard.
Wash up!
The best way to prevent colds, flu and gastrointestinal illnesses such as Norovirus is to wash your hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds after bathroom breaks and before eating.
GOOD TO KNOW SeaPass Card and Government Issued ID
Please note that guests are required to bring their SeaPass Card and a Government issued Photo Identification to get off and on the ship.
Just a Reminder

Bringing Food Ashore

Beverages and Other Liquids
Please note that local security authorities will dispose of any liquids returning to the ship. Unopened liquor bottles will be stored onboard for safe keeping and returned to guests on the last day of the cruise.

Our toilet system onboard is very sensitive. Please do not flush anything except toilet paper. Thank you!

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 4. 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.
DINING Specialty Dining Reservations Specialty Dining reservations can be made through the Royal Caribbean App. You may also dial [7000] on your stateroom phone and select the restaurant you wish to dine in or visit the restaurant and make a reservation with the Maitre d' outside.

WELCOME TO SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO
DAILY SNAPSHOT
Tuesday, January 9, 2024 San Juan, Puerto Rico
Puerto Rico’s 500-year-old capital is a history buff’s dream. The Spanish settled this harbor and that influence is still evident, from the fortress walls lining the coastline to the rainbow of colonial buildings. Venture further out from the old town and nature unfolds. You can scale high into the jungled mountains of El Yunque Forest, or keep to the foothills on a riverside horseback ride.

HELPFUL TIPS FOR TODAY
The best way to prevent colds, flu and gastrointestinal illnesses such as Norovirus is to wash your hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds after bathroom breaks and before eating.
GOOD TO KNOW Bringing Food Ashore
Due to port health regulations, food, including fruits, vegetables and drinks, is not allowed to be taken off the ship when visiting a port. Food will be collected at the pier and returned to the ship for disposal.
Beverages and Other Liquids
SeaPass Card and Government Issued ID
Please note that guests are required to bring their SeaPass Card and a Government issued Photo Identification to get off and on the ship.
Please note that local security authorities will dispose of any liquids returning to the ship. Unopened liquor bottles will be stored onboard for safe keeping and returned to guests on the last day of the cruise.
Shore Visits for Minors
Illegal Substances
All guests ages 17 and under must be accompanied by an adult to depart and return to the ship at all ports of call destinations.
Mind your Step
Don’t let a misstep ruin your day in port. Mind your step on uneven sidewalks and streets. And please note that some curbs can be very steep.
Take Precautions Ashore
Safe traveler tips: Avoid mass gatherings as a security precaution and avoid being late back to the ship. Be cautious and practice situational awareness when exploring new areas. If on a Shore Excursion, stick with your group. If travelling on your own, consider alternative routes and allow yourself extra travel time to and from the ship.
EXPLORE ST. KITTS & NEVIS Shore excursions have limited availability and sell out quickly. Guest favorites include Caribbean Scenic Railway Tour, Catamaran Fan-ta-sea to Nevis with Snorkel & beach and Essential St. Kitts. Book on the Royal Carribean App or at the Shore Excursions Desk, Deck 5

SeaPass Card Cash Limit
The credit limit for cash SeaPass cards is $500. Once this limit is reached, the account will be deactivated. To reactivate, a cash deposit is needed or simply link a credit card. Visit Guest Services to learn more.
Beat the Rush
Avoid lining up to settle your SeaPass account. Register your credit card on the Royal Caribbean App and no check-out will be required.
Smoking
All Royal Caribbean ships are non–smoking (including e–cigarettes) except for designated areas in the Casino (for active players only while playing) and the open decks. Please be sure to properly dispose of cigarettes, cigars, and pipe tobacco.

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 4. 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.
