AI / Non AI - Staff Treat You Differently?

[trollking]

We were on the IE last year during August and went All Inclusive. At times i got the feeling that we were being treated differently (worse) than non All inclusive people on board.

 

The staff seemed less attentive and didnt ask us as frequently if we wanted drinks. I thought it was just me but reading other peoples posts on here it seems that other people have the same feelings.

 

I thought that it was because of tipping but then it is a "no cash" ship so why the difference with the staff towards AI and Non AI?

TK, personally have never experienced this myself, but could imagine that the non AI will be pressurised to buy drinks and the non AI who have already "paid" for the AI are discouraged (more Profits) or am I Just being Cynical ;)

We were on the IE last May and have to disagree with trollking, we never felt we were treated any differently from the Non AI passengers, we were always served in a very speedy and efficient manner and never had to wait to non AI passengers to be served first.

 

In fact quite often we were served before them and always with a smile.
