mafig Posted January 12, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I know they have free drinks between 5 and 8 every evening. Is anything else available during the day? Can you grab a bottle of water to go? Any snacks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshrich Posted January 12, 2023 #2 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Hello, when it was open to D+ they did have a continental breakfast in the mornings, now I believe it's just for suite guests and pinnacles so unsure how things have changed, the free drinks you mentioned have stopped for D and above between 5 and 8, now it's vouchers for 4+ drinks loaded onto your seapass to use anytime.

Can you grab a bottle of water to go? Any snacks? When I was on her a little over a year ago you could get drinks from the bar in the evening (using your vouchers or beverage package), to include bottles of water. During the day they would usually have cookies/snacks by the coffee machine, and hors d'oeuvres in the evening. I'm really going to miss those nice CL's on the Radiance Class now that D+ has been uninvited. 😢 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted January 12, 2023 #4 Share Posted January 12, 2023 (edited) On many radiance class ships (it may vary from sailing to sailing), the concierge lounge is only available to suite guests. Pinnacle‘s have access to the diamond lounge, not the concierge lounge. The lounge has continental breakfast, evening cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, and specific morning and evening hours for the concierge, should you need specific services During the day, it is mostly empty and a quiet place to sit. m Edited January 12, 2023 by cruisegirl1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am currently on a Radiance class ship, 46 Pinnacles (lots of D and D+) and no access. Just for suites. I suspect this will be the norm moving forward. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafig Posted January 12, 2023 Author #6 Share Posted January 12, 2023 We are in a suite. I thought the Concierge Lounge had free drinks between 5 and 8 (not using your vouchers). Some posters above are mentioning we have to use our vouchers, so I'm confused. I thought the voucher use was for the Diamond lounge. My original question was if we could grab a bottle of water during the day in the Concierge lounge....it seems not. However, now you've got me wondering about cocktails in the Concierge Lounge without using vouchers if we are in a suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vouchers are not provided to full suite guests (unless they are Diamond or above). Non-suite guests who previously had access to the CL have had to use vouchers that come with being Diamond or above. Guests in full suites have never had to use vouchers in the CL. Those full suite guests who are also Diamond or above also get vouchers that can be used outside of the CL. Bottles of water are not available in the CL outside of the 5 - 8 cocktail happy hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DaKahuna Posted January 12, 2023 #9 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Color me confused (what ever color that may be.) I thought there was free beer, wine, soda, and bottle water in the Suite Lounge on all Oasis Class ships from 1100 - 2300 (11 am - 11 pm). Is this not correct?

Rare DaKahuna Posted January 12, 2023 #11 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Ah -- excuse me -- I thought it said Symphony vice Serenade .. I will miss the Concierge Lounge on Radiance class ships. One of the best, if not the best, cruises we had was on Brilliance. I loved the Concierge Lounge and did not want to leave the ship after the cruise was over.

RosieRoo Posted January 12, 2023 #12 Share Posted January 12, 2023 (edited) Love the Radiance class ships. They are my favorite, but I don’t usually book above a JS as the suite perks just aren’t that great. Royals suite perks are not the same across the board. On the larger ships like Oasis and Anthem you get Coastal Kitchen for breakfast, lunch and dinner, the all day suite lounge and free internet. You don’t get any of that on the Radiance class ships, but I still love them. Also, any of the drinks you consume in the suite lounge during happy hour don’t count towards your free D or D+ drinks.

Ashland Posted January 12, 2023 #13 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Just on Serenade this past September & October. CL is now for suites (GS & above) with comp drinks and snacks 5-8. During other hours there was morning continental breakfast and cookies etc throughout the day. It was nice to be able to use our 5 drink vouchers pp during the day anywhere. Enjoyed Serenade especially for our October Panama Canal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that was our favorite perk when in a suite on Serenade. In all honesty the CL wasn't much. There wasn't really much of a view. I had the DBP so I never bothered with HH. The snacks and breakfast items weren't anything I couldn't get in WJ. Really the only benefit of it was that it was quiet and the wifi seemed really good there.

We took our drinks across the hall to the Vortex area...great views from there and they had it designated for upper tiers since there were so many on our PC itinerary. 116 Pinnacles 326 D+ 357 D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are sailing this October, and may not get the drink package......they have gotten rather expensive. I want to make sure I have this right. We are Diamond. So we get 4 drinks a day on our sea card, that we can use anywhere, for any drinks, anytime on the ship? My husband drinks Jack Daniels, and I drink vodka. On Celebrity, he is unable to get Jack with his Elite Plus drink perk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted June 27, 2023 #19 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Post-restart, I love the lounges having a permanent bar in Radiance class ships. Must faster bar service compared to ships where you have to wait for the server to go next door to get your drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can order your drinks from the bar menu and your D drinks are capped at $14.00. Celebrity only allows the CC HH drinks to be ordered off the limited CC HH beverage menu at the different bars. Same as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many happy memories in the Radiance class CL's on all 4 ships in the class. Unfortunately, I can't book a full suite to gain access (even if I wanted to) because there are no cabins on this class higher than a JS that are accessible. Love the smaller ships, wish there was a little more love back. 😪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
