Coupons are good Any drink under $13 any time of day and on CocoCay. Suite lounge will get you any drink you want if they have a full bar like on Oasis class although we have gotten any drink we have requested in other suite-lounges as well Did they add a blender to the SL?

I asked the reason and concierge said new safety protocol and social distancing. They have not charged for sodas during lunch in Coastal Kitchen.

As much as I like being able to order off the ship menu, the service isn't nearly as prompt since they have to go to an actual bar to get your drinks instead of the rolling cart bar. Hopefully that's one covid change that gets reverted back to the good ole days Just order two at a time😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I can order a drink in the suite lounge and pay for it, use my C&A drink allotment (If applicable) or order a free soda and there is no safety protocol issue? Just a safety protocol and social distancing issue for a free drink? Hmmmm! M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFerrington Posted August 12, 2021 #63 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Very disappointed to hear that the SL is not serving drinks 11-11. I guess I'm not surprised...but still disappointed. I agree with @George C. I will just keep my DBP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That, for sure, was the highlight of highlights on our last Celebrity trip. Made nicer because we booked it before Luminae was a thing and you instead got comp specialty dining based on your cruise length - then the Concierge calls us once onboard and notifies us "You get Luminae, PLUS the 3 nights specialty dining when you booked." I think that's the best news I've ever got onboard a ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare JessyCruises Posted August 12, 2021 #71 Share Posted August 12, 2021 If the intention is to implement safety protocol and social distancing, it seems to me that changing it from 11-11 to the standard happy hours would do the opposite. Instead of guests visiting throughout the day to grab a drink, they are now going to have everyone congregating during a short window of time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
