However this great location(old concierge lounge) was moved from the original windowless smaller space location on deck 9.after the first drydock and was never meant to be the permanent location.

Sometimes we gotta make adjustments on the fly and play the hand we are dealt. I would have had no problem first voicing my dissatisfaction with the LA and the followed that up with an Email to the CAS when I got home. Other than that little bump in the road I hope you had an enjoyable cruise.. We loved the Majesty, otherwise. Plus, sailing out of NOLA is like a super-port, and we were there for 4 days before the 1st cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that time cruisers that elected to sail on that ship were willing to forgo some amenities do to the itinerary. Majesty had the faux diamond lounge while she did 4-5 night cruises to the Bahama's from Florida. Now RCI has moved her to NOLA doing 7 night cruises, so the type of cruisers you attract are more apt to expect the standard Royal amenities, which are definitely lacking on Majesty. MJ ran 3/4 night out of Port Canaveral and had the Diamond Event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmie Posted February 22, 2020 #384 Share Posted February 22, 2020 My husband and I will be on Majesty over our anniversary in 2021. It’ll be our first cruise as diamond. Is there any special coffee for Diamond and above on board? Not a big deal if not; we’ll just get him a refreshment package like always, but just wondering so we could maybe save a few bucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great, but that doesnt answer the question. I guess I need to look up when was MJ in Pt Canaveral. Majesty came to Pt Canaveral in May 2016. Roughly 4 years ago. So I'm guessing the expanded HH in the VCL coincided with the move north. Edited February 23, 2020 by John&LaLa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milwaukee Eight Posted February 23, 2020 #395 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I guess the next question would be when did JD start on MJ. I have it from good sources both here and otherwise, it was he who started the Diamond Event. JD did lots of things above and beyond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Favorite spot so far; really enjoy VCL. I always found the layout to be awkward for anything other than looking out the windows. The circular path around it was to narrow. Little open space. And the rock wall addition messed up the back view. But the biggest pain in the butt is having to switch elevators to get to the MDR for dinner😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
