bigbeergut Posted April 1, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 1, 2018 It's been a while since I've cruised but I was glad to see that mints and towel animals have returned to the standard cabins. These were waiting for us after dinner. Hopefully we'll see these return to the rest of the fleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swoopy2110 Posted April 1, 2018 #2 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I think it'll be to show off the shiny new ship and that they won't be making a permanent return Enjoy your cruise :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulxyz2004 Posted April 1, 2018 #6 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I´ve had towel animals on every single cruise. The chocolates have been standard on every of the Oasis class for the first few sailings. No worries, they will disappear. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Towel animals seem to come and go, hopefully they'll continue on all ships? Do you think this has anything to do with our D+ status? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with your status, just with the ship being showed off. It´s not a question of they would stop after a few cruises. They definitely will stop after a while. They are certainly not back. I´ve said this above and will repeat, it´s been the same with every new Oasis class ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We spent a lot of time on Oasis and mints and towel animals were standard for a long time. Not just to show off a new ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just to show off a new ship.I'm not really sure what you mean by the towel animals.... I've never NOT had towel animals on a cruise. I've been cruising for over 10 years and 8 cruises in the last 2, and had towel animals on every one. As far as the mints... I've really NEVER understood the fascination people have with a 5 cent mint, and the amount of talk and attention that people give it. To each their own I guess, but it simply amazes me.

bigbeergut Posted April 1, 2018 Author #17 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Towel animals seem to disappear each time RCL want more profit. It reduces the amount of towels they need to have on board and wash. The last time we had them, they were small, made from hand towels not larger ones Everyone needs a mint before bed. I've seen the stateroom attendants count them out because they track every mint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well maybe we're starting to figure it out. It must be the D+ status. Now that I'm thinking about it, I've had mints every time since we got to D+.

Nothing to do with "Diamond" status. I've sailed 30+ yrs on Royal, never not had Towel Animals. As others point out new Oasis ships have chocolates then after few cruises no more...
