Host Jacquelyn Posted October 21, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Anyone who sailed recently, were there still prizes for winners of the trivia contests? I KNOW the prizes were lame, but I really did like the bag-in-a-bag and the pen / highlighter. In any case, on Serenade this past August, they eliminated all trivia prizes. The staff did not think this was the case on other ships, rather this was the decision of the CD. Curious about other ships. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare OCSC Mike Posted October 21, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 21, 2023 We won prizes on Wonder in June. Not just pens & highlighters but some stuff I hadn’t seen before like stress balls & drink koozies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mets123 Posted October 21, 2023 #9 Share Posted October 21, 2023 They haven't had trivia prizes on the Liberty since at least the September 7 sailing. The staff is blaming supply chain issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danv3 Posted October 21, 2023 #11 Share Posted October 21, 2023 No prizes on Liberty earlier this month. While the prizes are nothing special, I do think they make it just a bit more fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually the daily trivia contests get smaller prizes but the 'Progressive Trivia" (totaled scores over the length of the cruise) winners get larger prizes.

schlimazel_traveler Posted October 21, 2023 #17 Share Posted October 21, 2023 We got a Bingo T-shirt (one to share amongst the team) for winning regular trivia games on Vision this summer, and a Bingo T-shirt apiece for winning progressive trivia. I actually liked pens, highlighters, key chains, and luggage tags...we used those! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should at least give people a coupon for something on the ship. Even if it's like a 25% discount at the gift shop, a buy-one-get-one drink at the bar, something. People don't have to use it, but if they do, Royal makes some money in the process that they probably wouldn't have made otherwise. Missed opportunity on their part.

meadowlander Posted October 21, 2023 #24 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Prizes and coupons were distributed on Jewel's 2 most recent sailings. Print on coupon lists 5 are needed for a prize but I do not think that is enforced. T shirts, North Star bags, highlighters, medals, key chains were given.
