Precisely. On recent cruises, weve been unable to get a seat in the Diamond Lounge because it was filled with new Diamonds. That was the major negative impact of the Double Point program. Please don't say you can get drinks at any bar. The drinks are not the point. It's the ability to meet new people in a quiet context on a regular basis. In the past, we made many lifetime friends in the CL and DL. Not so much now.

They actually made public announcement that the executive chef was being replaced? That seems rather harsh.

They will often convert the four seaters into two seaters.

There's a big difference in how captains see their responsibilities. Some seem to love interacting with passengers while others put on the cloak of invisibility. I wonder if their is anything in their job description dealing with passenger contact.

No mushroom soup??? That's one of my favorite dishes,

The question was specifically about someone with no status having access to the Diamond Lounge. I doubt if there would be any exceptions.

Exceptions??? On what basis?

I'd rather have a good waiter and assistant waiter than a good CD.

England fairly stong favorite for that match. Will Kane be the difference?

Disagree, but there's no point in trying to argue the issue.

We've had problems, mostly in the dining room with charges being wrongly assigned to either myself or my wife. Then spent time at Guest Services trying to explain that one card was charged for 6 and the other for 4 (as D+). Once, the agent spent ten to fifteen minutes printing out receipts for every drink.

But it does prevent getting a serious case of COVID and possible hospitalization.

Most likely in the pub. Looking forward to seeing the real football.

Nope. Diamonds cannot visit the suite lounge.

Our January flight from New Orleans leaves at 2:10. That's fine. Why stress? We'll hop a cab after the cruise and enjoy the Delta Sky Club for a couple of hours.

Actually, I have found the prime rib to be hit or miss. Sometimes pretty good but sometimes fatty and chewy. I'll stick with the delicious short ribs.

Keep the short ribs and lobster tail. Everything else can be changed.

A lot of peole would notice. On our recent cruise on Adventure the DL was often filled to capacity with a very large spillover into the Viking Crown Lounge. It's not just about the drinks. It's about the ability to meet people and establish lifelong friendships, somthing that's simply not going to happen sitting around a noisy bar.

Why the necessity to mention the "generous tips?"

I'm asking what the extra charge is to include an additional device. Sorry for not being clear or if you didn't understand.

What's the additionl cost for the extra device?

What about Diamond and Diamond Plus vouchers. Will we be charged $1.00 for each drink?

Simply not true. "The most controversial firing in the show’s history didn’t fit into either of those categories. Hannah Ferrier, who was the Below Deck Med chief stewardess from seasons 1 through 5, was let go for having prescription valium aboard the yacht." I doubt I would call prescription valium, which is legal, "illegal dope,"

What's the Elite breakfast?

You can also take two or three bottles home.
