Just back from a great cruise new aditions since refit great,staff fantastic as always but our junior suite was very tired looking and the evening meal was sadly very poor and after doing over 30 cruises this was the first time we have had to go to the buffet for evening meals but the food was a lot better than the main restaurant which is a shame.

We were lucky to go on her maiden voyage - and to have sailed on her another 6 times but! I am afraid to say the Indy is not the ship she used to be. The staff are still great but the whole concept is now focused on selling! Nearly every talk or seminar is aimed at selling something, from the expensive excursions to the never ending spa treatments. The specialised dining has increased in price as well as the drinks packages. We also found that the ship docked much further away from the usual places forcing everyone to have to pay for shuttles etc. Very disappointing. On the plus side, the staff are still great and the food was excellent! We are however now going to try another cruise line.

Further information

Onboard

On Royal Caribbean cruises, dining options include traditional dining with set times (around 6:00 PM for early and 8:00 PM for late), flexible My Time Dining (usually 5:30 PM to 9:30 PM), specialty restaurants with variable reservation-based times, and extended hours for buffet and casual dining venues to accommodate varied schedules. Keep in mind that specifics can change, so check the cruise line's website or contact customer service for the latest information.

Royal Caribbean strives to accommodate various dietary requirements for their guests. They offer a range of dining options to cater to different dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and other specific dietary restrictions. When making a reservation or prior to your cruise, it's recommended to inform Royal Caribbean of your dietary requirements so they can make the necessary arrangements and provide you with suitable meal options. Their main dining rooms, specialty restaurants, and buffet areas often have options that cater to different dietary preferences.

Generally, Royal Caribbean guests have a luggage allowance comprising checked and carry-on bags. Checked bags usually have a weight limit of around 50 pounds or 23 kilograms each, with varying allowed quantities. Carry-on bags can include personal items, medications, and valuables, and are typically brought to staterooms. Special items like pushchairs and medical equipment might be allowed. Baggage policies can change, so it's advisable to refer to Royal Caribbean's official website.

Royal Caribbean features a versatile "Wear What You Want" approach for most of its cruises. While formal wear is optional, smart-casual attire is common for evenings. The cruise line encourages self-expression in attire while ensuring respectful dressing in public areas.

Iglu Cruise has a team in place to provide necessary assistance to make your holiday run smoothly. If anyone in your party requires medical or mobility assistance, notify your Cruise Specialist at the time of booking or as soon as possible if circumstances change after booking. The Special Assistance Team will email a form 6-8 weeks before departure, which must be completed and returned.

Travel Requirements

All passengers (including all children), should hold their own full 10-year (5 years for children) British Citizen (GBR) passport. The passport should be valid for at least 6 months past your expected return date to the UK, as this is often a criteria for entry to certain countries.

Royal Caribbean strongly recommends that all guests consider purchasing travel insurance to protect themselves against unexpected events that could disrupt their travel plans, such as trip cancellations, medical emergencies, baggage loss, or travel delays.
