iswimlikearock Posted September 20, 2013 #2401 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Did you try sending it to AL_Concierge01@rccl.com ? Number 01 and 02 work together..I last got an email from 01 about 3 weeks ago. I tried both with the same message... Grrr! I'm going to try to send one from my gmail maybe that will work.

Don Pedro Posted September 20, 2013 #2402 Share Posted September 20, 2013 We are in a GS this Sunday on Brilliance but no email from concierge, is that the norm? Some had told me to expect email a week or two out... any feedback on Willie? Sent from my KFJWI using Tapatalk HD I got an e mail from Willie at about 2:30 yesterday. One interesting thing was that the evening CL function was listed as being from 5:00 to 8:00 PM. That was the same hours as I just had on the Jewel. Looks like RCCL has cut the time by 30 minutes.

pjlee3333 Posted September 20, 2013 #2405 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Thanks.......so I'm guessing Efren took over the CL,while Francis is in the DL? I'm assuming so. Forgot to ask Ruth who was covering her vacation. Liked the views in the concierge lounge better so didn't use the diamond lounge during the 2 weeks.

negc Posted September 21, 2013 #2409 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I got an e mail from Willie at about 2:30 yesterday. One interesting thing was that the evening CL function was listed as being from 5:00 to 8:00 PM. That was the same hours as I just had on the Jewel. Looks like RCCL has cut the time by 30 minutes. Late seating has been changed from 8:30 to 8:00pm on Brilliance which is more likely the explanation for the change in happy hour time in the CL and the DL. This was the case on the TA from Harwich, and I didn't notice anyone suffering from the earlier closing time. In fact drinks were frequently available around 4:30 each evening. Both lounges were very crowded due to the extremely large number of Diamond, Diamond Plus and Pinnacle members onboard, a situation that is expected to be repeated on the upcoming repositioning cruise from Boston to Tampa. Jose and Rajif in the CL were especially good at their jobs.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bar staff was meticulous about serving last call just before 8, so it was not a problem. Edited September 21, 2013 by travelgoddess1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But one question, if I send the concierge a message, should I wait until a few weeks before the cruise, or can I email them at any time? I have some questions (never been in a Grand Suite before so have no idea how any of this works) but don't want to bother them too soon. Any advice?

Depending on the subject.....IMHO: the week before your cruise the CL gets the roster and will have your name and cabin number. That makes it easier for the CL to build a file on you. It is hard to wait but it time most efficient way not to be forgotten. Enjoy, GS rocks! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
