CHANGES TO CROWN AND ANCHOR BENEFITS

[John&LaLa]

Remember the outcry on a TA, may have been Vision, where they wouldn't let folks take drinks out of the overflow lounge.

The only thing RCI is "happy about" is to be able to fleece their "guests" out of more coin.

 

Never sailing these bozos again.  Service has declined, perks are non-existent, cleanliness of ships is horrible, and the behemoths are not conducive to comfortable sailing.  Retch.  Staying with Celebrity, Princess, Oceania and Azamara.

There you go, another satisfied customer.  Thanks for sharing.😱😂

Horrible fits

 

Says so on my Cards Against Humanity box😉

 

But I like to think of myself as an oportunist

You lost me on cleanliness is horrible.

You weren't talking about picking up soda and water in the DL to be consumed later🤔

 

I was referring to the cases of water and soda people purchase before going onboard and bringing it on the ship.

Apologies, I was confused. The topic was trending towards folks in the past grabbing cokes and waters from the DL when HH was unlimited.

Yes that was done as well as taking drinks and snacks out which you mentioned was a no-no.  I found that lounge policies and overlooking certain things tended to be dependent on ship and concierge / personnel at the time.  Some were stricter than others.

I tend to doubt that RCI is going to have a crew member stationed in the lounge from 6AM to 11PM which are typical operating hours of the coffee machine.

I agree.  My guess is that the self-serve coffee is gone, gone, gone.

Most ships seem pretty easy going in the morning. Coffee and danish to go

Maybe, but I hope not.

If I had to guess, which is all we have been doing for over a year I will say you will have to use a voucher for soda and water in the lounges during HH

Maybe they should place one of those one coffee cup machine in each cabin.  They have those in the Caesar's properties in AC.

If they do that, they will create two more things to complain about - LOL

Be careful, I some time ago called someone a troll and was penalized by the mods.  Still have the check mark/demerit.😀

Our last cruise was on Royal, up the coast of Norway to the North Cape, it was great.  Ship was clean, service was excellent, no problems.

That was in 2019 before COVID19.  I doubt if Royal has decline to the unsatisfactory standards stated on these boards.  When and where did anyone run into such substandard conditions?

They don't make good coffee.  Passable for a jolt of caffeine at best.  Maybe a Nespresso machine...

6am after being up until midnight...a jolt of caffeine is ideal at that point!

Absolutely love my Kcup. I'd even bring my own pods and a creamer
