Why does he not do an Ocean View cabin?

@bodyloverz30 11 месяцев назад

The Diamond/Diamond+/Pinnacle on Balconies+, should bring down the total cost, and the onboard booking bonus, is better for a Balcony cabin.

@bodyloverz30 11 месяцев назад

His rates are not yours, being that Pinnacle's get a 150% Single Supplement Fare.

I did a 15 day Carribean cruise in February before COVID and met many Canadians who cruised for 3 months of the winter, going from ship itinerary to ship on the Holland America Line. They found it was cheaper to do that than rent a condo in Florida for the same time period. I was intrigued by the quarter year cruising concept. Like a quarter timeshare only better - food, housekeeping, entertainment, places to see and things to do. All kinds of people.

@jazzyflorida3757 11 месяцев назад

Big commitment from him to choose this lifestyle to live out his retirement. I love cruising, but just as excited as I am getting on the ship, I’m also ready when it’s time to go home, and get off the ship! And after 1,000 cruises, this man should have some major upgrades and perks. Royal should take care of him ALWAYS. He pays full price and an inside cabin? Royal can’t upgrade him to a free balcony after 1,000 cruises! That’s ridiculous.

@clbert7460 11 месяцев назад

He gets a free cruise per year because of his loyalty status. But he worked most of the time he was cruising when he was young; he was still working as of four years ago. Not sure when/if he retired.

@MoDavI-sl7iy 5 месяцев назад

Trust me, they probably gave/give him all kinds of discounts, but told him not to tell us for several reasons. 😂

@Van_The_Man 11 месяцев назад

I had a chance to sit with Super Mario, in his office, on a Trans-Atlantic cruise for 45 minutes one day. He was just as polite, personable and talkative as he is in this video. Later at a Royal Caribbean Trivia session, I had a chance to sit with him and other Pinnacle Members, I am not a Pinnacle member, and he remembered my name days later. They got a perfect score on the Royal Caribbean themed trivia! What a life!

@hrdickens 11 месяцев назад

Love keeping up with Super Mario! We met him in March of this year (2023) and really enjoyed asking him questions and just interacting with him and Jolene. Very sweet man and we are waiting for him to make Guinness Book of World Records so we can get a signed copy 🖤 Thanks for giving us the opportunity to keep up with him and sending love from Heather, CJ, Beth, and Timmy!!

@jersla1999 11 месяцев назад

I agree with Mario. I actually prefer inside cabins, as I sleep better in total darkness. In addition, the lower cost inside cabins allows me to cruise more often. Thank you and Mario for sharing your knowledge.

@FraserAtSea 11 месяцев назад

I've actually chosen a similar lifestyle for this year - I'm ship hopping for most of 2023 and having an absolute ball. I do wonder if I'd prefer to be living on ONE or two ships, but really enjoying seeing so many different ships!

Thanks Alanna for the updated video... super helpful! I have had the pleasure of meeting Mario on several cruises and can attest he is just the nicest person. He is always super willing to chat with you onboard and offer great advice on how to maximize your cruising... although I try to keep it respectful and visit during office hours. As a single cruiser, I have followed his booking strategy which has allowed me to cruise more often and move up the Crown & Anchor levels very quickly. And speaking of a wealth of knowledge... the trivia questions he comes up with are killer... but super cool facts to learn.

@videosbywilliams 11 месяцев назад

I was fortunate enough to meet Super Mario on Oasis of the Sea last November 2022 he was very informative and extremely easy to talk with I even asked him if he mind me taking a picture of him because my sister and I love cruising and also chose Royal Caribbean as our favorite cruise line. Working on getting Diamond Plus.

@cathyparsons8878 11 месяцев назад

So nice to see you & Super Mario together! You always do a great job interviewing him. We have had the pleasure of meeting him onboard the Symphony OTS and he was just as nice, friendly and genuine as he appears on screen. We hope to see future updates on Mario. Thank you both for a very informative video. Be safe & healthy! 😊

@sandralynn1309 11 месяцев назад

Many Thanks to you Alanna for the informative video with Superman-Mario. George and I recall watching the first one about four years ago. Then, during the pandemic halt of cruise travel we stayed in Galveston for a week and imagined ourselves on another Voyage someday. During that season one of the Passenger ships arrived for a few days. We cheered along with you and your husband as the empty Cruise ship docked in Galveston. Your beautiful baby daughter was smiling from the stroller that morning !! It was a moment of Joy and Hope not soon forgotten. I recall you folks drove all the way down just to view the ship entering the channel and docking. We're still here at the Port of Galveston awaiting the __ new __ Carnival Jubilee this December.

@jennerspatterscruisingchan5731 11 месяцев назад

Alanna, thank you for doing another series with Super Mario. He is my cruising hero and I got to meet him on The Oasis in December. He is such a nice guy and he sure is living the life! He is so right on the fact that shorter cruises cost more. We sailed the week before Christmas last year and I think that is the way to go if you want a holiday cruise, much cheaper but you still get the holiday vibes.

@CruisetheWorldAtoZ 11 месяцев назад

You are so welcome Jen! I'm thrilled you got to meet him, I remember you showed my the pictures! That is a good idea for some holiday cheer!

@thomasallen6980 11 месяцев назад

You would be sick of it in a month. Everyone tried that with some condo ship and they all moved off three months later because they spend tons of money but did not control anything. Who in their right mind wants to go to the same seven souvenir shops and a bounce island more than once or twice? Very unreliable internet. More reasons to get a new "bucket list" with better ideas on it.

Thank you Alanna and Super Mario for the video and pricing update. My family just sailed Harmony of the Seas (Week of June 23) and I walked by Super Mario's desk on the pool deck. Our first encounter w/Super Mario was back in 2010 on Oasis where he was being honored at the Captain's reception. I thought that was an accomplishment but was even more amazed when we saw him being honored on Harmony. Wow, he has a life style I'm kind of thinking about and these numbers and information really does help. I truly thought RC offered a discounted cabin. I still recall him saying, "cruising is the best value that provides room, meals, entertainment, and an opportunity to wake up at a new designation".
