Yes, and also a Vintages.

CrusinPeg, looking forward to your review as we'll be onboard FOS in January. You mentioned the casino was good to you. If you played blackjack do remember what the minimum bet was? Princess is usually $5 but I think I remember $10 last year on LOS. Just curious. Thanks

Just got back from freedom too. I know they had $6 tables. I played a single deck blackjack that was $5.

We only did the slots, but I remember there were a few 3.00 table events.

Thanks everyone for the information. I like blackjack but $10 a hand is too much to play for 7 nights! $3 and $6 minimums means I can probably play every night even if some nights are not very lucky. Something to look forward to.

We are just back from the Freedom last week .... I have to say it was one of our favorite cruises too !!! wonderful ship great crew ! Yes they do have the new Coke machines they are located by the big screen on pool deck.

 

Really? We are just off on Sept 16th and the "NEW" machines were not on there and the crew didn't expect them anytime soon. A co-worker of mine is going in Oct. and she really wants the 125 choices from the new machine and wondered if she would be lucky enought to have them on her sailing.

Did they put a Park Cafe on board yet?

Can't wait to read your review. We also did FOS western and loved it!

How do the freestyle machines work?!? Do you have to buy a soda package and then you swipe your card?

[sadie8]

We're boarding Sunday and can't wait. What did you all do in Falmouth?

[pearlie]

Hi, Do they have Giovanni's table? or just portofino?

 

Welcome home, glad you had a great trip, we go in a few weeks.

Maybe someone else can chime in here...we didn't drink soda.

[Ren1216]

I'm not certain, as I have not [I]yet[/I] used the new machines... but I think it's the same as the self-serve system they already had in place. When you purchase the soda package, they give you a thermal cup that contains a micro chip. If you make your purchase online, the cup will be waiting in your cabin. To use any of the self-serve machines, you need this cup. Otherwise, you can get a soda in a glass from any bar or dining venue by presenting your Sea Pass, which will have a Coke logo on it.
