I'm guessing it was John Denton, an exceptional Hotel Director who really cares about the D+ cruiser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had suggested Royal Lite when I called in but Royal Classic would work. When I book American Eagle, I know that the plane will be smaller than the usual American Airlines experience. I am booked on the Majesty for the Feb. 8th sailing so I am impacted by this sudden change. I had checked out the reviews and was expecting what I will call a "nightly event" in part of the CVL. I am sure we will all survive this but I will not be sailing on ROYAL LITE ships in the future. I will stick to the RCCL regular fleet. We also booked MJ when the "lounge happy hour" was still implemented. See you on Feb 8 on MJ, my first and -now I know- last booking with this Royal Caribbean MINUS ship!

truffles2 Posted January 30, 2020 #254 Share Posted January 30, 2020 We are boarding in a couple of weeks. I am in the middle of a project and really don't have time to read 11 pages but am wondering if anyone knows the status of the coffee machine? I am already worried about my morning coffee.

LOL There was never any machine on majesty because there was never any lounge. I believe Majesty had a diamond area in the dining room for breakfast, and In that area you could order a complementary specialty coffee. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare thrifty99 Posted January 30, 2020 Author #259 Share Posted January 30, 2020 They did still have the separate Diamond dining area in the MDR for breakfast and there was coffee shown but I don’t recall what exactly they were offering. I just got my normal coffee in the Windjammer each morning and added a Cafe mocha packet to it I had brought from home for my own specialty coffee.

When we sailed majesty this past July, it was not offered. If we wanted, we could sit in a designated D and above and suite area in the dining room. Or we could sit anywhere in the dining room and have the same menu, but no speciality coffee. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted January 31, 2020 #269 Share Posted January 31, 2020 You guys all think anyone working for the company is your friend? Really? Look what happens when one tried to use a clearer head to do something nice for guests. Shut down by a corporate bean counter. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted January 31, 2020 #270 Share Posted January 31, 2020 So here’s an idea—— why not create an informal gathering in the same spot every evening during happy hour. It can be in schooner bar / Viking crown or whoever. You can put a post on the community bulletin board and spread the word through social media. That way, those who want to meet up with other cruisers can do so. There are several daily “standing“ meetings on the message board already. I’m not sure why a crown and anchor gathering couldn’t be an additional one. just a suggestion m 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in this case rumors from onboard MJ say that present HD Rodney who is known to not "favor" the C&A program , triggered shoreside to abandon the happy hour event in VCL...........
