Royal Caribbean Lobster night for Australian Cruises?

[Bluekat74]

I've only been on cruises outside of Australia so wondered if someone could confirm that they dont do Lobster night for Australian cruises? I'm on Voyager next year 18 night Sydney to Perth via NZ

Though I've never had lobster on any of my prior cruises, perhaps it's always the night that I'm not in the MDR :confused:

I don't recall any lobster on our VOS cruise earlier this year.

For some reason RCL don't generally do it on Australian cruises.

Maybe I'm odd, but I've never been able to understand the big fuss about lobster night.

 

Perhaps that's because we have crayfish downunder, which are much tastier than lobster.

I understand that on Australian itineraries RCI serve prawns (aka shrimp) instead of lobster.

 

If they relied on me, anything that lives in the sea would die of old age!

Never had a lobster night on my cruises so far, but I've eaten everything from snails to crocodiles on them

No Lobster night on our Med cruise last year and we ate in the MDR every night except one.

We were on VoS Jan this year and there was no lobster night as such. But I do remember that you could purchase lobster of the menu in MDR for somewhere between $30 - $40 on certain nights.

Only every had lobster night out of Us/Canada.

 

But the big butterflied prawns (shrimp) are much better - so sweet!!!

Cool thanks. On the two cruises I've already been on, Lobster night was associated with the second formal night, so a lot of fun dressing up. Will definitely be interesting to see how the menu will be different then.

No lobster nights on RCI out of Australia (sadly) but we have had lobster tail on Princess.

no lobster nights on our RC cruises, but we did have BBQ lobster tails for lunch one sea day in WJ on Radiance earlier this year :)

[Aussie FF]

Always had a 'giant shrimp' on RCI, in place of lobster.

[fishtaco]

Perth to Singapore March this year we had Lobster tails on VOS in MRD

Did the same cruise you are going on and sadly no lobster, but you could have it for a price.

I've always had Lobster on all my RCI cruises 5 nights or more. I just had it on their sister company Celebrity British Isle cruise on the 2nd formal night.

[Very Frequent Flyer]

No lobster night on my 5 night cruise to Brisbane on the Radiance earlier this year. Instead, lobster was available in the main dining room for $34 extra. It tasted crap!!!!! :mad:

Out of Australia and the Med? It's always available on the USA cruises but not necessarily elsewhere it seems.

We had lobster (free) in the MDR on our Caribbean Carnival cruise last year, they also had an excellent Surf and Turf (no upcharge) in the specialty restaurant.

Yes, except not in Australia. Those that did get upscale priced lobster on the rare occasion out of Australia would have got the tasteless deep frozen lobster and I suspect that the "shrimps" we get are not fresh either.
