Thanks, Kevin. It was still listed on the 11/28 email, so I wanted to be sure.

Suggestion for others; lets all include a post here about what you liked or disliked. That may help others who are considering the same cruise.
A couple quick thoughts:
- Bring comfortable shoes, you'll do a lot of walking
- Check your account daily via the TV. Three days in a row had to go to guest services to get bogus charges removed.
- No laundry facilities, you need something washed you have to pay Royal to do it.
- TV service has limited channels. You can hook up an iPad or something via HDMI but you need a remote you can program for a Samsung so you can change inputs.
- Voom internet service very good. Able to stream video with their surf & stream service.
- Don't forget that the TV monitors in the elevator lobbies are interactive, get menu's for example.
Enjoy, it's not Disney but it's not bad.
I was going to get the regular package. I had looked prior to the cruise and it was $8.95/day. When I went back a few days later to actually buy it, they had a promotion to get the stream package for the same price so we did.I only had the Voom Surf package without Stream and was still able to stream Youtube videos. If you aren't planning to watch full episodes, save the extra cash. Amy
Good point. One thing DW said was that there really needs to be some way to communicate with others in the group. There were numerous times when we had down time and would have liked to meet up with other DISers but had no way to contact anyone. Maybe distributing a directory of everyone in the group would work. At least that way we could call each other's cabins. Texting only works if everyone has an Internet package and you know their number.We found it good just to communicate via text with others in our grouo.
Due to privacy reasons, distributing a list wouldn't be possible. One suggestion would be to use this thread or perhaps the Facebook group page to organize mini meets or to just say "we are in pub come join us".Good point.

Maybe you could give people the choice to opt in to being on the list. Using the boards or Facebook is limited to those people who have internet access (and check it regularly).Due to privacy reasons, distributing a list wouldn't be possible.

Now that I think about it, there is a post on page 1 of this thread that lists people's names and cabin numbers. It isn't everyone but it's quite a few. I didn't even think to look at that during the cruise.
Looking forward to seeing the group photo of everybody.
...Oh wait, we forgot to do that.
We looked at that board one day. Along with the notes about Friends of Bill W. someone had posted a note for a meeting of Enemies of Bill W. They were meeting at 3:30pm at the Champagne Bar.There was a message board of sorts at Guest Services. I saw notes about Red Has and Friends of Bill W.
