Diamond member question

[Ken Greco]

As a diamond member can I bring a non diamond to event and buy that person a drink and mine is free.

Nope. Not in the DL.

You can go to any bar and use a voucher for yourself and buy the non Diamond a drink.

 Yes. You could use your vouchers to get multiple drinks at any bar or show outside the DL.  As a couple they never ask for both cards, and never have they cut me off after the third drink.  Very rare the same waiter or bartender asks for a card after they have served you the first drink.  Could be a dollar or two tip makes you rememberable.

I am on RH right now and believe me they are very strict ring up every drink and I tip generously.

Some people just keep asking until they get the answer they want.

Completely different then our experience on Symphony.  They did check every seapass card as people entered the DL or overflow areas of Jazz on 4 and the Attic. Other then that it was as lax as I have ever seen.  We left the DL several times as it closed down at 8pm. Headed straight to a specialty restaurant reservation and was still able to get a Diamond voucher drink at 8:15. That happened at Chop,s Jamie's and 150.  Seems like royal is still very consistent with their inconsistency

That is unusual because it's generally not a matter of individual discretion.  They have to ring it up, and the computers know when it is 8 o'clock.

On the AD snowbird repo anyone that sat down at the Blue Moon bar would get a free drinks, even if you were only Gold.

So I will be Diamond on our next cruise , I lost my wife to brain cancer who was my sailing partner for years and years . I met a wonderful women who is going to start cruising with me  but has never sailed . So I cant take her to anything to do with Diamond  events ? I understand people abuse the system , but we have 5 cruises booked with RCCL over the next year . But whatever . Its no big deal to me. I know Carnival will include her in Platinum status so I may just change them all over to Carnival .

You can link her to you as your significant other.

Call C&A and declare the same residence address and significant other, and she will get your C&A level.

When I sail with my bff we go to a bar and I get the free drinks loaded on my card every night.  She insists on paying a tip for each drink, and on the Vision the bar waitress kept us well supplied.  I have no idea how she did it, but we had chocolate martinis and mojitos a-plenty at the R Bar.
