DINING OPTIONS<br />
Group Dining<br />
Reserved Group Seating shall be located in one area of the dining<br />
room (if available). The Cruise Line will attempt to honor the request;<br />
however, dining assignments will be made on the basis of availability<br />
at the time of group finalization.<br />
Should additional Guests be booked into this group after group<br />
finalization, the same dining room seating accommodations are<br />
not guaranteed.<br />
My Time Dining ®<br />
My Time Dining ® provides you with the flexibility to plan dinner<br />
around your schedule. Reservations can be made between 6:00-<br />
9:30 pm each night, so guests can choose the best time for them.<br />
My Family Time Dining SM offers kids an expedited 40-minute<br />
dinner, along with Adventure Ocean ® pick-up service. More fun time<br />
for the kids means more leisurely dessert time for parents. Daily<br />
reservations can be made online beginning at 3 months and up<br />
to 4 days prior to departure at www.<strong>Royal</strong><strong>Caribbean</strong>.com under<br />
>Before You Board > Pre Cruise Planner. Gratuities are required for<br />
My Time Dining ® and if not pre-paid on your final payment, will be<br />
charged to your SeaPass ® account onboard. My Time Dining ® does<br />
not guarantee tables together for groups of over 10 guests. Parties<br />
larger than 10 guests may be seated at staggered times and may<br />
not be seated close to each other.<br />
CRUISE DOCUMENTS<br />
• Cruise documents can be expected approximately 28 days prior<br />
to sail date. <strong>Royal</strong> <strong>Caribbean</strong> International ® reserves the right to<br />
hold documents until final payment has been received.<br />
• Guests traveling together in the same stateroom will receive one<br />
set of e-docs for the stateroom unless otherwise requested prior<br />
to printing of documents.<br />
• Requests for paper documents rather than e-doc (electronic<br />
documents) must be processed prior to thirty (30) days from<br />
sailing and require an additional fee of $35.00 per person.<br />
GROUP AIR PROGRAM<br />
• <strong>Royal</strong> <strong>Caribbean</strong> International ® will provide Air Arrangements<br />
with inclusive travel packages at competitive fares. While <strong>Royal</strong><br />
<strong>Caribbean</strong> International ® will make every effort to accommodate all<br />
air requests, Group Guests originating from the same air city may<br />
not necessarily be accommodated on the same flights. All Guests<br />
using the Custom Air Program will receive transportation and<br />
baggage transfers between the airport and pier.<br />
GROUP MARKETING AND PROMOTIONS<br />
• All marketing materials used to promote your Group must be preapproved<br />
by your <strong>Royal</strong> <strong>Caribbean</strong> International ® Corporate Sales<br />
Manager. All materials must contain a statement identifying the<br />
ship’s registry.<br />
ROYAL CARIbbEAN CRUISETOURS<br />
The unique nature of cruisetour Groups requires, in some cases, the<br />
use of different guidelines from those that apply to general Groups.<br />
The following paragraphs describe those different guidelines.<br />
Except for the differences described below, the above-referenced<br />
<strong>General</strong> Group Guidelines apply to cruisetour Groups as well.<br />
• If every member of a Group is purchasing the cruisetour, a single<br />
cruisetour Group booking will be created.<br />
• If some members of a Group are purchasing a Cruisetour and<br />
others are not, bookings may not be booked inside the same<br />
Group. Additional bookings in individual reservations or Groups<br />
may be required to accommodate all guests.<br />
• A <strong>Royal</strong> <strong>Caribbean</strong> Alaska Cruisetour Group can have up to sixteen<br />
(16) staterooms (thirty-two (32) Guests); all other cruisetours can<br />
have ten (10) staterooms (twenty (20) Guests) without any special<br />
approval. Group requests beyond these limits may be made and<br />
are subject to contracted terms. Please contact a <strong>Royal</strong> <strong>Caribbean</strong><br />
Cruisetours representative at 888-307-8401 for more information.<br />
CORPORATE AMENITIES PROGRAM (CAP)<br />
• The Corporate Amenities Program (CAP) provides your group<br />
with a menu of complimentary amenities to enhance your<br />
program. Selections for the use of CAP points may only be<br />
requested for Groups above the minimum Group size (eight (8)<br />
staterooms) and must be made before final payment is due. The<br />
availability of CAP Points plus the number of CAP Points varies<br />
by ship and sailing date.<br />
Contingent upon the itinerary, VAT or other governmental imposed<br />
taxes and fees may be assessed against certain onboard or pre-paid<br />
goods and services purchased. All such fees shall be the sole<br />
responsibility of purchaser.<br />
<strong>Royal</strong> <strong>Caribbean</strong> International sailings may be operated by<br />
<strong>Royal</strong> <strong>Caribbean</strong> Cruises Ltd., or its affiliates, including but not<br />
limited to RCL Cruises Ltd., RCL (UK) Ltd. (with respect to certain<br />
Brilliance of the Seas sailings) and <strong>Royal</strong> <strong>Caribbean</strong> (Cruzeiros)<br />
Brasil. See your passenger ticket contract for the identity of the<br />
specific operator/carrier for your sailing. Your operator/carrier,<br />
or another member of the RCL Group of companies, acts as an<br />
intermediary between you and any airlines, hotels, transport<br />
operators, shore excursion providers, and other contractors<br />
providing any third party services to you. For more details, see<br />
your passenger ticket contract.<br />
