WonderMan3 Posted November 13, 2018 #1 Share Posted November 13, 2018 On another board someone is reporting that they called Celebrity and got confirmation that Room Service will be a charge on Edge; $7.95 per order plus 18% gratutity regardless of what is ordered. Has this been discussed before? First I am hearing of it. No word on whether if suites will be charged also or whether this will spread to the rest of the fleet. (I am guessing it will if it works as they want it to on Edge.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted November 13, 2018 #2 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Is this after breakfast hours? Thought that's what the discussion concluded but it was not clear? We do not use RS very much but for breakfast it is handy..We,ll have to pack a small tray to haul our food back to our room! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WonderMan3 Posted November 13, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted November 13, 2018 This is what it shows now. So apparently they changed it back to $4.95 for the overnight service only since that post was from November 3rd. They must have gotten backlash.

Just a couple of days ago the app was showing the $7.95 charge for our January Edge cruise, with no exemption for suite guests. Now it's $4.95 overnight with no charge for suites.

TeeRick Posted November 14, 2018 #9 Share Posted November 14, 2018 It says no charge for suites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailAway78 Posted November 14, 2018 #10 Share Posted November 14, 2018 It may have been an error on the App as VT suggested. Celebrity’s website was not showing any change to the complimentary 6:00 A.M. to 11:00 P.M. Room Service policy for Edge bookings. No regular charge was on the App for the preview cruises but there was a typo indicating the overnight service fee for non-suites at $4.99 instead of $4.95 on the preview cruises which was also corrected.

Sky111 Posted November 27, 2018 #11 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Not to change the subject but I watched a video of O"Shehans showing the menu. That too says you will be hit with a service charge, fees etc. I guess NCL hired someone from a Cellphone billing company. so many hidden fees. Is there a place I can go online to see a list of them so I know what to avoid? Is the TP still free in the cabin or is the a limit on usage?

These are standard X room svc charges that have been in effect..No charge for suites or non overnight orders Breakfast in room still free.... but most rooms in need of a table!

RICCruisers Posted November 27, 2018 #14 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I believe Sky 111 is in the wrong Topic List. Talking about NCL.. I assume they were joking about limited use of Toilet Paper (TP). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cynic in me thinks they left tables out on purpose and were going to charge a fee (until they got a backlash) as they want to discourage people from using room service. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PINEY10 Posted January 31, 2019 #20 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Jelayne are you in a suite? Or does no charge applicable to all types of rooms? On RCCL allure. They don’t charge for continental breakfast but charge for everything else. Movies $12, popcorn $2.50, etc. it’s becoming the Spirit Airlines of cruise lines. Will never do RCCL again. We were last in about 12 years ago. Quality deteriorated significantly, ship is filthy, way too many people. Like Celebrity but if they start nickel and diming, not sure we’ll return.

sailingmickey Posted January 31, 2019 #21 Share Posted January 31, 2019 We just complete the 7 day cruise aboard the EDGE. We were in an infinite balcony and order room service every morning. No service charge or gratuity expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
