I used my duplicates to trade for blocks that I needed. Also traded for blocks that I did not need when I had duplicate blocks that friends needed, I now have 27 different ship blocks, and I have sailed on all 27 ships. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave a couple of mine to my sister, for ships she has been on, but did not get a block. The most of them, I give to our favorite crew members. Our excellent head waiter on Vision this last time almost cried when I gave it to him. Told me he had been wanting one for so long! Was always envious of his room mate that had one. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big "enhancement" I see here is that not only do you get more vouchers, those vouchers can be used at ANY time of day for pretty much ANY "normal" drink. Before with the Diamond Lounge and HH vouchers, you could only use them on certain cheap drinks, and only during the short HH period of time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_G Posted July 14, 2021 #232 Share Posted July 14, 2021 We're missing one block and we forgot to ask for it. Now it's been so long I can't even remember what ship it was. If they're letting them run out I might have to call and have it sent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very clear if you were in the call and heard the discussion that went along with it as well as the other slides. They really were not meant to be posted for consumers in on off shots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides it's going too Mexico. Didn't have much choice, one kid in College, one in University and my wife teaching elementary school all with slightly different schedules. There were a couple other cruises that I could have moved to but it would have meant an additional $4000 or more on top of the $5000 I already paid. This one was a wash other than the points I used for airfare 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My next block cruise is in October so I will find out if Enchantment still has blocks. What are the parameters for blocks? Will be Diamond Plus in October... never seen/received a block.

Do you receive block during the actual cruise you reach the milestone, or on the following cruise? Looks like we will reach a milestone on last day of 7 night cruise.... assuming they still have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We drink water from the DR and WJ but like a couple of bottles in the room. When we get thirsty at night. I’ll probably be bringing some on along with some diet soda. Maybe a case of each. 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LXA350 Posted July 14, 2021 #250 Share Posted July 14, 2021 The voucher system for the drinks is finally a real upgraded perk. You can choose pretty much any cocktail on the menu, better wine etc, it's a win win. If they would have added in addition 1 speciality coffee voucher to be used AM then this would be perfect. But for this you can still use the Diamond Lounge 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
