ONECRUISER Posted April 2, 2017 #1227 Share Posted April 2, 2017 After one week on LOS, I can't recall a single item in the MDR, Golden Corral aka Windjammer, or any of the specialty restaurants that I would pay $7.95 to have delivered to the room. Period. Serenade WindJammer actually was really good at dinner, was better tasting and choice then Main diningroom... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velvetwater Posted April 2, 2017 #1232 Share Posted April 2, 2017 We ordered it and liked it last cruise but are not bothered about ordering again especially as we are 1 floor up from the Promenade cafe. Royal should take a leaf out of Carnival's book and have a for a fee hot/better menu and a free menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beachdude Posted April 3, 2017 #1235 Share Posted April 3, 2017 We sailed the Allure of the Seas last October. It is now Sally's favorite ship.

Suzieanna Posted April 3, 2017 #1239 Share Posted April 3, 2017 ??? so, have they gone back to charging for the late night service only? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted April 3, 2017 #1240 Share Posted April 3, 2017 ??? so, have they gone back to charging for the late night service only? I doubt it. They may delay the rollout here and there, but I'd be surprised if they backed off on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is that it's just not free anymore (unless it's continental). For a 7 day cruise it would come to an additional $55.65 for in room breakfast for the week. Am I missing something?

Xcapist Posted April 3, 2017 #1244 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Wait...I'm confused....Are you saying I can no longer get hot items on the menu (door-hanger that you put out the night before) free...there's now a charge :confused: Yes the charges will be instituted on all ships over next few weeks. Only excepted delivery is Continental Breakfast. The schedule is on RCI website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy free delivery while you can - I have to admit, really bummed about new $7.95 charge every time I want to order room service - especially considering I am disabled and some days I just can't do much, so planned on having room service on my balcony if a "bad" day happens while on cruise... now I have to budget for it grrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be possible to order individual items for under 7.95, but once you add more items the flat fee is actually better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewFoundLander Posted April 3, 2017 #1250 Share Posted April 3, 2017 My family and I had often enjoyed room service over the years and like every other dining option there were hits and misses. At first I was disappointed but if I allow myself to stay in that mindset I am in for a life filled with misery as things will always change, some better, some worse and sometimes both at the same time depending on your vantage point. I choose if I want to cruise, I choose if its Royal, I choose the room, I choose if I'll buy a beverage package, I choose if I buy specialty dining and now I'll choose if I want to pay for room service. My only caveat is for those with genuine mobility difficulty, I wish there were an equitable solution, I am even happier to pay if you can be accommodated without having to. I hope my chosen cruise line remains profitable, successful, innovative and strive to provide me (and my family) options we can decide if we want to pay for all while bringing us around the world at a base price that seems very economical to me. Cheers All. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
