We were on the Allure this last summer and sodas were free all day in the Suite Lounge. Has anyone been on the independence recently and are they still free? We leave next week and debating if we need a soda package. We were going to ask conceirge but haven’t received a email from them yet. Does anyone have their email address? Thanks and happy cruising!!

I weighed yesterday and was up 8 lbs from our 8 day cruise and while cruising felt like I was being pretty responsible and only had 3 slices a day of the yummy raisin bread which found out on the last day they toast it in the coastal kitchen which made it beyond yummier than it already was! We foolishly packed our work out clothes and never put them on all week 😂 Next cruise is in November so I have a little time to get back down!! Safe travels back home and thanks for sharing your adventure!

We just had 2 chill island cabanas last week one I bought and the other my husband bought. the week before sailing I emailed the suite concierge about cabana location and he listed everyone for us but didn’t tell me who was at which cabana. Our friends told the cabana attendant the cabana number and got wrist bands. When we got to chill island around 10:30 no one was at the stand and we just walked back to the cabanas. We never left the cabana area but no one ever asked to see a wrist band. Personally I think you can just keep the reservation and list the other people on it and have them pay you. You can always say you weren’t sure where people wanted to go and you are traveling with a group. We had a group of 18 half in suites and half not and RC linked us all before hand and then the suite concierge booked us all reservations together for the shows.

The independence is our favorite ship but we’ve only done longer cruises on her. We will be on a 3 day cruise the day after thanksgiving. Do they do an ice show on the independence 3 day cruises? We just returned from the Allure today so I’m loving reading about your adventure!
