cublet Posted January 27, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Yes myself and partner will be onboard [emoji3] Sent from my iPad using Forums Hello and welcome to my small (but perfectly formed) thread. As you probably know RCI does not arrange Meet & Mingle get togethers for cruises of fewer than 7 days though there is usually a postcard on the community notice board at Guest Relations. Speak soon.

cublet Posted February 26, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Hey! Myself and my partner Jimmy will be onboard :) Hello, There's usually a signboard by Guest Relations advertising FOD meetings. In the past they have usually been in either the Champagne Bar (now R Bar) or nightclub (soon to be someone's stateroom). But of course we can arrange anything we like ourselves. Do you have a preference? Regards, Cublet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete&Mikeuk Posted February 26, 2018 #6 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Have been on a few recent cruises where RC have actually advertised in the compass but yes usually Champagne / RBar.. I will miss the Labyrinth [emoji22] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGinBoy Posted February 27, 2018 #7 Share Posted February 27, 2018 That's one of my biggest gripes with RCCL at the moment - removing ALL OF THE NIGHTCLUBS. How can they justify having a youth orientated brand and stripping out nightclubs? Sigh. Champagne bar works for me, otherwise I'm pretty fond of the Viking Crown bars.

Hello, I think the 'problem' with the nightclubs as far as RCI was concerned is that after 'late' the sole clientele were chiefly the non-staff entertainers/musicians that met there to be social and not to drink. I cannot remember what the curfew age is but I think some that would have wanted to be there shouldn't have been allowed there.

TheGinBoy Posted March 3, 2018 #9 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Eh, the other cruise lines - including RCCL sister line, Celebrity, find a way of making it work. I think it's sadly just down to penny pinching as cabins make more money than a night club. *shrug* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I nearly upgraded to a suite today but decided I couldn’t justify for such a short cruise! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suiteguest01 Posted March 25, 2018 #15 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Hi Pete and Mike, we only booked this cruise the other week and a Junior Suite was only about £80 more than a balcony so i thought what the hell, at least the double cruise points will come in handy. We've cruised on the Liberty but not on Independence of the Seas, so looking forward to it have to say. and its only the second time we've cruised from Southampton, makes a really nice change not having to worry about flights as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cublet Posted March 26, 2018 Author #17 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Hello, I was thinking about a JS but then thought I wouldn't be carrying enough clothes for three nights to make the walk-in wardrobe worth the extra money. I might carry a wreath to put outside where the Concierge Club used to be.:loudcry: Regards, Cublet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cublet Posted March 26, 2018 Author #18 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Hey guys my partner and i have just booked this cruise, would be good to meet up with you all for a cocktail or two for sure Hello, Cocktail or two?? I'm with Ernest Hemingway who said "One Martini's enough, two Martinis are too many, three Martinis are not enough". I'll drink to that.

Suiteguest01 Posted March 27, 2018 #20 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Hey Cublet like your idea for a wreath where the concierge lounge used to be, or we could raise a glass or two or three in the Diamond Lounge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cublet Posted May 8, 2018 Author #21 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Hello, I've received confirmation from RCI today that there will be a Formal night on this cruise. Regards, Cublet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGinBoy Posted May 8, 2018 #22 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Awesome news. Middle night I assume? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cublet Posted May 9, 2018 Author #23 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Awesome news. Middle night I assume? Hello, The email said the day was at the ship's discretion but I think any night other than the middle one would not be practical. Having said that, I cannot remember when or with whom, but on one cruise the last night was Formal - and I'll bet the bar takings fell as a result.

Suiteguest01 Posted May 14, 2018 #24 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Hi all not long until our cruise, do people want to meet up on the first night for a few drinks ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cublet Posted May 14, 2018 Author #25 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Hello, I see from the new deck plans that the Champagne Bar is still the Champagne Bar so can I suggest we meet there immediately after the muster drill? Regards, Cublet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
