cruisegirl1 Posted January 21, 2018 #428 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Janet and I were on the Serenade 1/5 to1/15. The DL was full by 4PM (drinks start at 4:30). No overflow. All drinks there are 3 drinks on your card. We spent the cruise in the CL. This was a recent post for our roll call for the Serenade. Maybe a way to get people to clear out of the DL after they get their 3 drinks or not to come to the DL at all. Are you saying that there is a three drink limit in the DL on Serenade? Interesting. Is this a total of three drinks regardless where you get them, or three in the lounge and three elsewhere? Not an issue for us as we rarely use all three drinks. But, from what I read on these boards, others have observed folks in the lounge drinking for several hours at a time (of course they have to be there the whole time to observe others) , and I imagine more than three drinks are consumed.

Ski-Lady Posted January 21, 2018 #430 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I'm not sure, the part about 3 drinks from your sea pass was posted by someone else on our roll call.

reallyitsmema Posted January 21, 2018 #433 Share Posted January 21, 2018 The bolded part is what SkiLady had posted in their rollcall but that same poster posted the following immediately after, in a different rollcall: Janet and I were on the Serenade 1/5 - 1/15. There is no overflow for the Diamond Lounge. DL was full a half hour before the 4:30 drink time. All drinks elseware are 3 on your card. Outside the DL was a zoo, taking 20 min to get a drink We went to the CL. It looks like they might have misspoke in the post to Skilady's rollcall. She has asked them to clarify, but as of now, the poster has not answered. Thanks Ski-Lady. Honestly if there was any limit on DL/CL drinks, I think we would all have heard by now! M As I pointed out in a previous post, the person Skilady quoted posted to two rollcalls and in the post Skilady quoted, they did not use the word elsewhere as they posted in their other post. The person misspoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaniDanielle Posted January 21, 2018 #434 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Used robe? Like the used sheets you sleep in and the used towels you employ in the bathroom? And the used flatware and china in the dining venues? <smh> Perfect answer! We have made many new friends over a cocktail in the Lounge. My husband can’t drink because of his meds so drink packages are a waste of money for us.

Milwaukee Eight Posted January 21, 2018 #443 Share Posted January 21, 2018 CL has been gone for a while on Oasis class, replaced by SL. I really don’t believe the CL was “replaced “ by SL. The CL was closed and another Lounge was created elsewhere for Suites and Pinnacle. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKNYC Posted January 21, 2018 #444 Share Posted January 21, 2018 He was quite clear that Diamond members would not lose lounge access.

It is a lovely fruit that doesn't look like any particular race of people.

Maybe next time We went to the Diamond area the second night (only) and they did ask to see our sea pass card. Never tested the unlimited drinks.

No limit in Oasis Class SL 11-11 Sent from my iPhone using Forums I don’t think cruises will be canceled because of lack of free drinks but we are certainly rethinking our cruise choices going forward because of the over crowding, lack of seating and slow service during the cocktail hour before dinner in any lounge. If you add up all the extras on your Royal or Celebrity cruise you’ll find you can do a more expensive cruise that includes everything you’re paying extra for.

ILCTCRUISER Posted January 21, 2018 #449 Share Posted January 21, 2018 It was a bar called the Hollywood Odyssey all day and early evening, and only the cigar bar after 9pm. It was also the typical overflow for the CL, when the CL was down on deck 10. For a short while, it was the DL and then morphed into the CL.

If you add up all the extras on your Royal or Celebrity cruise you’ll find you can do a more expensive cruise that includes everything you’re paying extra for. I guess, that if the lounge was full for the entire time, I might calculate this into my choice of cruise line, but I have never seen a full lounge 15 minutes after first seating for dinner. So, go have a cocktail at any bar, at 5 or 5:30 or whatever time the lounge is open, then 15 minutes after first seating show up, have more free cocktails. Grab a glass on the way out of the door as you head to my time dining. Stop at bar before you enter the dining room get another glass, add them together. You should be good to go. Seriously, these threads are so silly. People get so wound up about a serious non-problem that I wonder if they use logic ever. JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
