djh Posted February 23, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Question for anybody that travels in suites and has a better memory than me. Years ago, it seemed like we got a lot more suite benefits than we have today. Not only big things (like invitations to sit at the captains table), but just little perks (like fresh fruit etc.) We travel on Royal and Celebrity often, so I think sometimes when I'm expecting a perk and getting nothing, I may be confusing it with Celebrity. Or sometimes confusing it with diamond plus perks. Any useful input would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioRob Posted February 23, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 23, 2016 This depends on which suite you're booking. Starting in May, RCL is introducing a new suite class program that at the high end is pretty nice. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/royalsuiteclass For example, in the Star class, benefits include: Ultimate Beverage Package Complimentary Specialty Restaurants All Day Access to Coastal Kitchen Special In-Suite Dining Suite Lounge In-Suite Hand Crafted Cocktail Service Complimentary Minibar Specialty Bottled Water Nespresso® Coffee Maker Service Complimentary VOOM Internet, Fastest Internet at Sea Complimentary Fitness Class Complimentary Spa Thermal Room Access Exclusive Access to Signature Activities Daily Gratuities Included Complimentary In-Suite Movies Luxury Bathroom Amenities by L’Occitane® Duxiana® Mattress Frette Linens, Towels and Bathrobes In-Suite Welcome Amenity Royal Genie Service Customized Welcome Gift Food & Beverage Requests In-Suite Dining Requests Complimentary Laundry & Pressing Services Escort Guests On and Off Ship Priority Reservations Priority Theater Seats Access to Suite Sun Deck Access to Exclusive Suite Beach on Private Islands Priority Boarding & Departure Handle Special Requests Some of the big things there that stand out to me that are new/different include the Unlimited Beverage package, free internet, daily gratuity included, butler, and specialty dining included. That can represent a few thousand in savings if you use each of those items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishgal432 Posted February 23, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 23, 2016 No more slippers, chocolates. They have also cut down on the daily deliveries.on the positive side, some ships the concierge will walk you off the ship all the way through customs.

djh Posted February 23, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) No more slippers, chocolates. They have also cut down on the daily deliveries.on the positive side, some ships the concierge will walk you off the ship all the way through customs. Sometimes. On Navigator that was the case. Both times I've been on the Liberty the concierge has just walked us to the gangway. Also, I am aware of the new suite perks on Oasis and Quantum class, but while they seem to be increasing, I feel that on other ships the perks are declining. But like I said, maybe I'm expecting something that was actually done on Celebrity. Edited February 23, 2016 by djh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

critterchick Posted February 24, 2016 #13 Share Posted February 24, 2016 No more glassware other than the standard bathroom and a couple or water glasses. They used to provide a full array of wine, cocktail and martini glasses for all the liquor you weren't allowed to bring onboard.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
