I'm much more leery of my fellow passengers then the crew. Been to the buffet lately? Or belly up to a bar with dozens of others wanting a drink?? How often do you think the passengers get tested before they board the ship?

Yep, just make it a habit to stop by the lounge or sundeck and stock up!! (A few times a day...lol...)

Strange Bar Closings on Equinox Today in Grand Cayman

I guess I got lucky. I booked a cabana for the day when we got to GC. (I was ticked off that we had to tender 6 miles south of George Town itself) I had no problem receiving my bottle of Grey Goose and bucket of 6 beers when I checked in to my cabana...what a deal that was! $99 to book the cabana...and about $80 dollars+ of booze and food given to you as part of the deal!! Bean counters must have been off on holiday at the time 🤣 -
Don't be sorry about it...you're relaying your experience...you certainly don't *want* to be negative and you're not making it up... I appreciate your feedback.

Strange Bar Closings on Equinox Today in Grand Cayman

And you should be concerned. Here's an example: I booked my Sky suite back in August. At the time, there were 3 Room Service breakfast categories. Continental, Premium, and Specialty. When I boarded Jan. 12th, Specialty breakfast category was not on the card in my stateroom. My butler informed me that this was not for Sky suites starting that day. (Of course, this was the breakfasts I was looking forward to...) Only Continental and Premium. However, Specialty breakfasts were on the app for 'Retreat Guests'...I showed him that...and he said "You are absolutely right sir" and I had the breakfasts for my cruise. The timing for these (unannounced) changes is colliding with what you expected when you purchased the product. So one needs to be aware of what was advertised when you made the purchase compared to what they offer when you arrive in your SR. And bring it up on the spot when something is missing. It was the same for the afternoon canapes...not for Sky suites any longer...unless you pointed out that that was the bargain when you made the booking. Now, I didn't care about those, but my neighbors down the hall did...they mentioned it and *boom* they got them. (They had a different butler BTW) I haven't looked to see if the marketing blurbs have been updated on the website...but it's obvious they are doing a little more differentiation between upper and lower suites. And it certainly makes the lower suites feel lower...lol... -
I didn't think much of the X questionnaire. Too short and too vague. The only real opportunity to comment on various aspects of the cruise was the area for 'your final comments'...that part was an essay for me on both the good and the not so good. Oh, and it asked me if I would care to give an opinion on shore excursions...click yes or no. Then the list of ports was incorrect. Aruba was not listed, Puerto Plata (which we didn't go to) was. I find the Princess questionnaires to be much more granular. It took more time but it asked about most all aspects of the cruise. And it specifically gave you an area to comment on up to 5 members of the crew.

If statistics in future years show a significant increase in revenue for GC due to this change, you can bet your pippy that other islands will make a similar change. Why wouldn't they?? So let's hope it loses revenue for GC. -
They will never, ever get that money from me for 'specialty' dining. I can afford it...I just won't pay it.

IMO also...

I would have been really surprised if you regretted it...I didn't read it that way...
-
Pretty bold statement for only being on the ship for a couple of days. (giggle...sorry, couldn't help myself) Keep on rocking!!

OH, I CAN HARDLY WAIT!!!
