Yes. We had 21 pinnacles on a recent cruise, so everyone had access. However, pinnacles were required to make dinner reservations on a daily basis, and could not get them all at once for the entire cruise. Breakfast was offered in coastal kitchen and was not available in a specialty restaurant. Lunch was available on a space available basis. m

I hate that circle pinnacle circle. Funny-on a recent Mariner cruise, when they still had the Pinnacle evening event, the chairs were already placed all in a big circle. We left the room just after we walked in. I hate that circle. m

Nice. Neither the points nor the accommodations would qualify you for a tour over other passengers with more points (pinnacles) or higher accommodations (full suites). We have not been offered any tours since the return to sailing. Hope you e joyed it. m

We order the chicken noodle soup from the children’s menu all the time. Just asked your server for the children’s menu. It is available for both lunch and dinner. m

Thanks. Were you offered a tour based upon your accommodations (suite) or C&A status? Upper tier diamond plus (340+) and pinnacles used to receive tours, but have not since return after Covid. M

Why would it need to be changed back. Anyone has the ability to rent a cabana there. Obviously the cabanas were not rented by just those who were eligible for Barefoot Beach. It made sense to open it to others so that the cabanas could all be rented. m

Yes, thanks I am aware of that. The OP mentioned renting 4 cabanas so they could be on Barefoot Beach. I was surprised that being on Barefoot Beach was so important that someone would rent a cabana just to be there. Honestly, the lunch is simply not that good anymore. m

Not sure who she called, but that is definitely wrong info. D's are invited to the top tier. And, not sure why she had no benefits paper. Anyone who has sailed once is at least gold, and gets that paper. Now, if people read it....that is another issue. Tour invite? That would be great! Would love to see them again. What tour did you get? M

Last few cruises, the bulletin board was removed, but as you noted, the info will be in the compass. One is already listed several days in the compass for a cruise next week on Adventure. M

Thanks for the reminder to check the back pages of papers. The top tier event is ALREADY listed in the cruise planner for my cruise next week. M

good to know - thanks M

It is not suspect, not every venue is on every ship. Among others, there is no solarium bistro on Adventure. Some venues are specific to certain ship classes. M

Sorry to interrupt your question, but did you book the cabanas JUST to get into Barefoot Beach? Thanks M

each? are you in different cabins? M

Common occurrence. But somewhat exciting the first time M

I believe it is per person per night. m

Blades is correct for both the four night and three night Allure cruises. Here is the 3 night entertainment lineup. The four night adds Blue Planet.

Low 30 pinnacles currently on Allure (four night). We have full access to suite lounge/coastal kitchen (B-L-D) but can only make dinner reservations one day at a time, based on availability. Information to that effect is listed on the benefits document in the cabin info. We will also be here for the weekend 3 night. I understand there will be 60+ pinnacles on board. Not sure of access for that cruise. Good food, good entertainment, good staff. m

Regarding dress, dining, entertainment etc., i was interested in what the ship will be offering during the full cruise, I’ll check a few of the blogs after the cruise sets sail. m

For those on the full voyage, what is expected to be a normal routine? Are there formal nights, and if so, are they as frequent as other types of cruises? Is there expected to be entertainment every night? Is the dining menu similar to what we currently have on board (several courses each evening). It would be super exciting to be on the full voyage, but I know that I could not keep up with that type of routine, plus touring for nine months. m

You and your family in Royal/Star lofts will have full access and priority over other groups. Why will you think that others in lower category accommodations, or those not in a suite would have priority? No worries. Enjoy your cruise. m

A glass of tap water on non Oaiss ships. Breakfast on Oasis class ships. M

every 350 pts. 1050 is any balcony on a Caribbean cruise ( or a trade in value) Today the price of a cruise makes the cruise worth much more than the trade in. My Icon cruise is worth over $7500!. Then at 1400 pts, it is a JS M

Forgot to book a milestone from last December! Thought I had done it already and wondered why the cruise had not shown up in upcoming cruises. LUCKILY, I realized it two weeks ago and booked it before it expired. Icon for March 2025, a nice way to try Icon for free. M
