No Pins permitted unless staying in a suite. Royal has effectively closed the Suite Lounge to non-suite Pinnacles! Pinnacles in the suite lounge I've talked to come to the suite lounge because the diamond lounge is annoying. I'm sure they can't be happy about this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping that's just awkwardly worded, and they aren't getting rid of the traditional happy hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sine the limit is a firm $13, what is to stop them from raising prices (e.g. Martinis, Cosmos, Manhattans) to $14 or more.

Rare xpcdoojk Posted June 7, 2021 #36 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Isn’t that how it works now. I don’t actually know, as I just go to a bar and order the Diamond Red Wine, and hand them my card. I was worrying something bad had happened to you, as you were missing on so many threads that seemed right down your alley recently. good to know you are well. jc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare killsport Posted June 7, 2021 #37 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Probably dumb, but an important question…will this impact the specialty coffees in the morning? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cigar King Posted June 7, 2021 #39 Share Posted June 7, 2021 I'm happy with these changes and hope they continue past the current troubles. The vouchers are a better fit for us and hopefully this will result in a less crowded lounge. Question: Does anyone know if the flexible arrival program is going to be available to suite guests? I would assume yes, but, this does not say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, this drink threshold comes in the same threshold as the drink package. I believe $13.00 is its limit too and if they did that, that would mean drink package holders would revolt as they lose as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a "poor 4er" and believe me I don't need to be pitied. I'm thrilled about this development as it works much better for us than the "old" set up, so will be very pleased if it continues going forward. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When that happened, we thought: “Oh, well, the beginning of the end.” Isn’t this where RCL wants to be? As D+ we enjoyed the CL and, in the absence of it, the DL. Oasis class, we probably spent more time at Trellis Bar, than in DL. A major plus is the “any drink up to $13.” Prefer that and 5 a day works here. That’s fine. Hopefully we’ll still have access to coffee machine and DL breakfasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pinnacles I witnessed in the DL seemed to just want to be big fish in a little pond. Sadly, they were demanding and rude to the staff. Wanted to make sure everyone knew they were pinnacles. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HicksRA Posted June 7, 2021 #49 Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) I personally will miss Ps in the SL. I’m not pinnacle but always enjoy their company and conversations. Who else has more knowledge and things to talk about relative to cruising than them? I’ve met some really great people that way - especially on long cruises. Some want to refer to Pinnacles as snobs. A snob is a snob but not all Pinnacles are snobs. Edited June 7, 2021 by HicksRA 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone on the Adventure posted their welcome email from the concierge in a <major social media site that begins with F> group this morning. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
