They really were not meant to be posted for consumers in on off shots. Seemed clear to me based on the knowledge already circulating 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was definitely referring to having the Balcony discount combinable with any offers that go to all consumers...for example...instant savings and OBC offers. i went back and watched the webinar again and they were very clear about that 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they still do the complimentary wine ( although most of the time it was that Beringer stuff 🤢) Apparently most officers didn’t enjoy hosting the tables, and it was always an effort to get them to attend, so I’m thinking most officers may be doing a sigh of relief. FWIW; with the vouchers it means I can now get a decent glass of Whispering Angel with dinner instead of the house hooch PG; it may also mean I can get a decent g&t before dinner. Shame it’s only 5 vouchers a day though!! Does the new policy put a dollar limit on the drinks you can get with the voucher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artvlay Posted July 16, 2021 #290 Share Posted July 16, 2021 With the vouchers having a $13 limit, can you get a drink for $15 and be charged the balance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But someone reported that they were charged 18% gratuity on the full amount of the more expensive drink, not just on the amount over $13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeannie333333 Posted July 16, 2021 #292 Share Posted July 16, 2021 One benefit which we are disappointed about the change is the reserved seating. We always used to arrive 10/15 mins before the start of a show knowing we could sit in a good seat. But now we have to arrive 45 minutes ahead of the start of the show - really?? I remember many years ago as cruising newbies we arrived 30 mins ahead of a show to ensure we had seats we liked - so now we have to arrive even earlier than we used to i.e. 45 mins to select a seat? That is a benefit enhancement how exactly? Does anyone ever go to a show 45 mins before the start? Have I misunderstood this enhancement? Or is that just their way of removing a 'perk' which we used to find very valuable? Disappointing Jean 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You always had the option to show up early to get your preferred location if you didn't like the reserved seats so you have neither gained nor lost anything with this change. This is a loss for those of us who were quite happy with the reserved location. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
