You’re right, many would still be on excursions for sure Yes, the timing seemed odd but given they hosted it in the Eatery rather than a lounge it was a quieter time and space available.

It’s usually pay as you go or some sort of drink package or yes Royal Caribbean has so many drinks per day “ free” if you’re at one of the high status levels. But oh well, I guess your friends enjoyed themselves . I guess your friends didn’t read what was included in their cruise fare. Was this there first cruise ever? I cruise Celebrity & RCI also. They have free drinks! Celebrity from 5 to 7pm unlimited. RCI Diamond 4 per day anytime. RCI Diamond+ 5 per day anytime. I am Elite on Princess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These were seasoned Princess Cruisers Elite. Funny part was we told them the drinks were not free. They didn't believe us until days later when they saw their bill. No, they did not enjoy themselves after they saw their bill. From that point on they did not have a drink. Sometimes it pays to listen to others.

No true lounge nor live music as we tend to have on the other ships. This seems like a sign that the PES lounge is on its way out. People won't go to it in the buffet, so it will be eliminated based upon lack of use. 😡 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is on both Grand and Royal class ships 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats correct. @memoak, the Platinum Elite “lounge” on the Sun Princess was in the back section of the Eatery and not in a dedicated lounge itself. You simply walk straight through to there. It’s not ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
