Summit Embarkation Day lunch?

[Champagne Cruiser]

Were the Embarkation Day lunches for AQ and Suite guests just a trial for the Bermuda runs or are they here I stay? I understand the baskets in Oceanview have disappeared.

We did not have the Blu E-day lunch on the recent first Canada cruise.

 

We had some baskets in the buffet but not that many.

We were told that the special brunches were trials for the Bermuda runs.

Bummer! I was hoping after the "trial" that it would stay and even go fleet wide. With the rising prices on X it would be nice to have a relaxing embarkation day lunch. Sigh.

Thanks for asking JHC52..I assumed they were still a go with so much positive feedback for them.

How could there not be 100% positive feedback on this? I was really looking forward to this since I am in a suite for the first time. One of the things I like about HAL is that returning passengers enjoy lunch in the MDR on embarkation day. It makes such a relaxing way to start your cruise vs fighting the crowds in Oceanview. Wonder why X stopped this?
