sross6019 Posted November 4, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 4, 2014 We will be on the Allure in 2016, but planning ahead. There will be a large group of us. All except 2 are in junior suites. The 2 are in a C2 (Central Park balcony). If we decide to eat at the Coastal Kitchen will the other 2 be allowed to join us, since it is for JS and above? I know this is early but we are talking at Thanskgiving and trying to decide a lot since everyone is spread around the state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Shippy Posted November 4, 2014 #2 Share Posted November 4, 2014 ....I would not count on any answer you get today as being accurate next month let alone in 2 years ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSU Posted November 4, 2014 #3 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I know on Oasis, Coastal Kitchen is for Grand Suites and above. So your friends would not be able to join you if Allure is converted to Dynamic Dining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Shippy Posted November 4, 2014 #4 Share Posted November 4, 2014 ..do not know if it would be anywhere near the same... We have sailed in the Yacht Club on MSC. That is their version of a dedicated suite area. To bring a guest in that restaurant for dinner is $40.00 ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeySailor Posted November 4, 2014 #6 Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) If Allure goes the way of Oasis with Coastal Kitchen and a Suite Lounge fitted in place of VCL, it will be for Suite Guests (GS and above and Pinnacle Gold Card Holders) All the official RC flyers that were posted do not mention JS having access, but as we all know that can change before our eyes and maybe different in 2015 and 2016. Hopefully there will be a happy balance and JS will get access, time will tell:) As for now which has been posted for Oasis and in reviews from recent sailings Note: for the TA it was slightly different But for now it is my understanding that: Suite Lounge & Coastal Kitchen (GS Suites and above & Pinnacles) Diamond Lounge (D, D+ & Pinnacle) Suite guests who are also D,D+ & PC Concierge Lounge (D+ Pinnacle and Suite Guests) business as usual Now if CL becomes fully wonderland, then it may all change again;) Happy Days!

STANMELB Posted November 4, 2014 #7 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Sailed on the Oasis October 27, 2014. Your information is correct for the Suite Lounge Deck 17 and the Diamond Lounge Deck 4. During our cruise we were informed by the Concierge for the Concierge Lounge and various Officers that the Concierge Lounge will be closed sometime in February 2015. It will then be converted to Wonderland on both decks 11 and 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also more suites, especially JS Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaylemh Posted November 5, 2014 #12 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I'm surprised since JS cabins are included on Quantum. RCI just changed their website. Coastal Kitchen on Quantum and Anthem now show Grand Suite and above. I hope they honor the reservations that have already been made. They also changed their menu. Filet mignon is no longer on the menu. http://www.royalcaribbean.com/quantumoftheseas/dining/restaurants/coastal-kitchen/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MADflyer Posted November 5, 2014 #14 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I am traveling solo and tried to arrange a guest for night 2 on Quantum and did not get a clear answer, so did not push it. I will try to take a guest on day 8 and see how it works. Quantum will try to remain JS and above, while Oasis and Allure will be GS and above. I am glad MSC have arranged some solution for their version as when I last sailed in Europe with them, I was not allowed to bring any guests to the Yacht Club designated dining room. A $40 fee seems reasonable for a upgraded dining experience for guests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non suite guests can join their suite friends/family for $50 pp. ;) PS Sky suite guests (to me the equivalent to a JS) will have access to the suite dining room. Those suites also have butler services but no access to Michael's Club (Concierge) Edited November 5, 2014 by drarill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
