Ashland Posted January 3, 2021 #2 Share Posted January 3, 2021 No one knows yet how they will handle the lounges...stay tuned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted January 4, 2021 #3 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I would bet money that they will be open if cruise sails, doubt your cruise will sail if it’s April 2021, I also have a April 2021 cruise currently that I have little hope for. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it’s yet confirmed if Odyssey will have a SL instead of like her sisters that have a CL. Maybe during CV19, they added SL’s to all ships. 😇 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's probable during the initial restart. Sure there will be pushback in which case they might dedicate a venue to Pinnacles like they do on any cruise with high top cruisers. Pictures of a packed lounge will lead the CDC to respond and potentially withdraw certificates to sail so there will be changes during the CSO phase of a restart. So be it, let's get ships sailing again. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot- what is the difference between the Suite Lounge and Concierge lounge? The RCI booking site says that the Grand Suite has access to the Suite/Concierge lounge. So, I guess I'm just happy to get access to whatever the lounge with free evening drinks is 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted January 4, 2021 #19 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I believe the only difference is D+ can go to the concierge lounge, but not suite lounge. And I think the discriminating factor there is the size of the lounge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad to say, I do not believe we will be sailing. I have my first hump april 2021. Never had one before and booked at the best balcony rate of any balcony by far. I also used a credit card I cut up and no longer deal with that bank. Checked lift, and it would be the 3rd week of a b2b, if I cancelled the first week to do the lift, I have a awesome corner aft. I dont see anyone holding out hope for april, even ourusualbeach on another post said he thinks march and april is toast. Maybe they will extend double pts and how far out you can lift a d switch? ..though I'll probably be cancelled by then. I sure hate the idea of losing that good price and paying $300 more for a balcony or even more out into the new releases. If it werent for the crazy posts cruise message boards would be dead...that and the cancellations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s a SL, nobody was ever kicked out of the CL nor was it converted or renamed. How do you know it’s a SL? M8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted January 4, 2021 #25 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Honestly - at this point who cares about the name on a lounge door! I simply hope to get back on any ship and would gladly give up a lounge for the chance to sail again. When I started sailing 30 years ago - I had no lounge and must have been perfectly happy as I've sailed many times since. Recently, (well that is relative) we sailed ships ( Empress and Majesty) with NO LOUNGE. M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
