The nuts have gone!

[Bonnie Voyager]

Oh no!, I loved using the basket to keep loose items on the dresser.

 

I too found the containers useful! :D

[davenew]

On a recent Adventure of the Seas sailing the welcome back basket had no nuts, trail mix or cheese & crackers :eek: Only some cookies and dried fruit :( Is this another cut back or was I short changed :confused:

I think you will find that it is due to nut allergy sufferers:)

I an Diamond and got the smaller gift"Basket" whilst on the Freedom OTS last October. Missed the pillow chocolates more than the nuts.

Just back from the Indy. All we got was a bag of mini cookies. Nothing else. I used to think that being diamond had it's perks. Now I'm not a happy cruiser!

Such a small thing to lose your happiness over.:)

Happy sails (with or without our Diamond basket).

The D+ "welcome back" gift is no longer a basket. It is a plastic bag with a small bag of almond and a small bag of shortbread cookies.

 

Choice of beverage still comes with it.

 

Just back from the Freedom and here's what we got. There was also 4 complimentary bottles of water this time in our cabin. We are D+

I liked the baskets that we got before and always reused them. We also liked the nuts/fruit, cheese ,crackers selection. Nothing went to waste with us. Keep them coming RC.

Ive never got a welcome back basket before ?? how do you get one of these ?

[Yorkshire Voyagers]

Just got back from the Adventure transatlantic and received the basket, complete with nuts, cheese etc.

You get them automatically starting with Emerald C&A status. The D+ ones have a few more items, although I believe the Emerald and Diamond guests get the same "basket".

Emerald and above get a welcome basket. ( At least this week. Who knows about the future.)

Thanks, I guess i wont be getting one for a few more cruises :D

[Emdee]

I asked for water and got beer!

Then neither the steward or anyone around could get me an opener. On the transatlantic last year the beer bottle was actually partially opened and quite flat.

 

However still happy to get the wine ( one big and one small) and the snacks which are handy in the airports.

The Blue Ribbon Basket is the Diamond amenity. The White Ribbon Basket is the D+ amenity (Nuts, crackers, cheese and chocolate cookies).

 

Just got back from the Adventure transatlantic and received the basket, complete with nuts, cheese etc.

 

OK! Perhaps the nuts have not gone. Looks like I was mistakenly short changed since I am D+ but received the blue ribbon D version on this sailing. Didn't appreciate there was a difference in contents. Thanks for clarifying the situation ;)

They stole our nuts a while back.:eek: Its only a matter of time until they take the basket away as well, not that I really care. Matter of fact we didn't even get our complimentary soda on a recent cruise.

[lovelife]

On our last sailing in March this was waiting in the cabin. Yummy crackers and cheese +.

 

 

 

And this (I did not order the fruit as a Diamond Plus gift)

 

 

 

Then later in the week this was delivered

 

 

 

Then this

 

 

 

All this was really way too much for us to eat!

Very disappointed to be lured into such a boring thread with a sensationalized heading. :p Happy Spring Joe...finally. :D

Absolutely not the reason.

 

Nuts are sealed.
