capsplace Posted September 7, 2022 #51 Share Posted September 7, 2022 We were on the Reflection for TA in April. Unbeknownst to us, CANAPÉS we’re offered during the Elite HH in Sky Lounge. No idea this feature had been reinstated. But it was only for this cruise. The following B2B Mediterranean, no CANAPÉS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of people attended. Maybe they only offer HH on longer cruises? Anne I think I spoke to you at the Capt Club desk during the next cruise, when no snacks were offered.

Just for my own curiosity what did the CC host say when you questioned them about no longer having snacks during the CC HH in the Sky Lounge?

I'd like to know also. This has been a highlight for many Elite guests don't know why they stopped it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac66 Posted September 7, 2022 #55 Share Posted September 7, 2022 (edited) We were on the Equinox in April. We are elite with an included basic drink package. The HH became a moot point, no snacks served. Just got off a 12 night Summit cruise. A premium drink package was included in the fare. Again, the HH was a moot point, no snacks were served. The AI fares kind of makes the HH obsolete. Edited September 7, 2022 by mac66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sky lounge on the S class ships was a great venue. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuAnn Posted September 7, 2022 #57 Share Posted September 7, 2022 21 hours ago, davekathy said: I will. But from what others have posted, the pre covid style CC evening HH in the Sky Lounge is no longer. We'd like to see it come back. We still plan on going to the Sky Lounge for pre diner drinks. Should be less crowed than the other bars/lounges.. So it is still open at 5 pm then? I had read somewhere on here that it was not open for HH? 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Elite Breakfast, coffee and the HH included there is no reason anymore to book the beverage package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve been drinking fancy coffees at no extra charge for years, maybe because we have premium drink pkg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoy an Aspen coffee at Cafe El Bacio and noted on my recent Eclipse cruise a couple of the staff were using steamed milk in place of whipped cream for the topping. They had to make new ones. What a waste. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
