troykahack Posted October 18, 2016 #26 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I can confirm this, I ran into Super Mario on Saturday on Enchantment and he said the exact same thing. Cant confirm this, he said they were opening up multiple bars/lounges to accommodate but didnt get specific Mario is a nice guy. I think moving to Freedom soon... will he come back to EN? Also, what happens to the Suite Guest on the TA, what bar will they have access too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SL up on 17 will be in full service for the suite guests, apparently no Pinnacles, though. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, what happens to the Suite Guest on the TA, what bar will they have access too? He said he was doing TA then going to Freedom, didnt say anything about returning to EN. When I ran into him a few months ago on Empress he said nothing about going to EN next so who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swsf99a Posted October 18, 2016 #31 Share Posted October 18, 2016 My security level is not the highest....but....once the data is compiled....what will RCI do in the future when cruises are all D, D+ and Pinnacle. The Harmony TA will have a ton of entitled cruisers. What will Royal do in the future? I have not yet joined the vast starboard conspiracy !!

tlatrice Posted October 18, 2016 #33 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Why would someone NOT choose to be a Crown and Anchor member? Wouldn't their TA enroll them to get the balcony discount?:confused: My parents and sister haven't. Despite me telling them to do so. And my sister has been on 2 cruises now.

Richst48 Posted October 19, 2016 #34 Share Posted October 19, 2016 We were on the August 12th sailing of Enchantment and I did not hear the count of all the tiers but I do know that Mario was the only Pinnacle and my wife and I were 2 of only 3 Diamond + members on board. There was never many people in the CL or DL any night so must not have been many Diamonds on board either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired LEO Posted October 19, 2016 #35 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Mario is a nice guy. I think moving to Freedom soon... will he come back to EN? He'll be spending at least a year on the Freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was never many people in the CL or DL any night so must not have been many Diamonds on board either. He was the only Pinnacle on our sailing as well. I thought that was a once in a billion chance of happening since there are so many pinnacles Sent from my STV100-1 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be awesome doing the FR TA with him on board :) Cindy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joandian Posted October 19, 2016 #38 Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) We disembarked Mariner 2 days ago and I think there were around 600 C&A members. No Pinnacle, 40 of us D+ and can't remember the rest. Edited to add....went to duck into the Conceirge longe for a coffee last morning as we had a deck 9 Humb JS and the name had been changed to Diamond lounge. Did a quick trip to deck 14 and sure enough, the sign said Conceriege Lounge. They changed the signs overnight. What do y'all make of that?

UCF_Knight Posted October 19, 2016 #41 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I don't recall exact numbers, but on Oasis last week I believe it was around 200 Diamond, 80 Diamond Plus, and 16 Pinnacle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torpeedo Posted October 19, 2016 #42 Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) We were on the Anthem a few weeks ago for a 9 night New England cruise. Rounding it off we had about 700 diamonds, 300 Diamond +, and 20 Pinnacles. I didn't catch the number of the rest of the levels but there were many. The Diamond lounge was open to the Music Hall to accommodate the large numbers and we visited a couple of times. There were about 18 servers so everyone had good service. We visited the Concierge Lounge also and was never crowded. The lounge was all the way at the aft of the ship so it was a long walk. Service was OK but not nearly as good as the Diamond Lounge. I was beginning to think the CL had a one drink maximum! Edited October 19, 2016 by torpeedo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted October 19, 2016 #43 Share Posted October 19, 2016 As for changing the locations on Mariner, that looks like a smart move. It gives the D+, suites and P's the larger, nicer lounge. And that should clear out the smaller former Concierge lounge for Diamond members. I fully expect all Voyager and Freedom class ships to go with the deck 14 Suite lounge instead of a Concierge lounge as they go into dry dock as LB did. On LB the old concierge lounge is a game room. Adventure is supposed to be making that change during her upcoming dry dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STANMELB Posted October 19, 2016 #44 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I'm really part of a vast starboard conspiracy. :rolleyes: To tell you the truth, I was just curious. The topic comes up from time to time, Royal tends to readily share the information. Statistically speaking I doubt we could ever gather enough information to make any kind of determination. Carry on. Thanks for starting this discussion. I find the numbers very interesting. On our recent Oasis class cruises I noted the over 50% of the passenger were 1st time cruisers on Royal Caribbean.

We always use the lounge on deck 14 unless we are just popping into the concierge lounge to grab a coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you think Diamond Plus would be in the same lounge as suite and Pinnacles? On other ships it's the SL for suite guests and Pinnacle guests. Diamond and Diamond Plus have the DL.

Rare John&LaLa Posted October 27, 2016 Author #49 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Hoping to have the Harmony TA numbers later today. Should be Huuuge. 13 more Pinnacles than the previous guesses.
