crilski Posted July 7, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 7, 2019 I will be on the Empress as a Diamond. I understand there is no Diamond Lounge. Do they do anything special for Diamonds to make up for a lack of lounge? I assume 3 drinks on my card - anything else wonderful? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisegirl1 Posted July 7, 2019 #3 Share Posted July 7, 2019 (edited) We sailed empress two years ago, and there was nothing except the party (that biker mentioned) on the open patio behind the Boleros shortly after sail away. I’m not sure who gets invited to that party, if it is suite, pinnacle and upper tier diamond plus, or open to other categories of crown and anchor enjoy m Edited July 7, 2019 by cruisegirl1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted July 7, 2019 #6 Share Posted July 7, 2019 I've heard breakfast in Chops and reports of a happy hour in (I think) Viking Crown where you can get more than your 3 vouchers based on your S&S card. I'll know more in mid-August. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
negc Posted July 7, 2019 #7 Share Posted July 7, 2019 We were able to have drinks in the Viking Crown Lounge, even though it was open to the public also. We were not limited to three drinks, but since we probably only had two, it was just my experience, and the policy could be that it was 3 drinks per person. Apparently they used to have some snacks up there also, but the Board of Health shut that down as they didn't have sneeze guards on the tables, because they really weren't set up for serving any food. As Pinnacles we could have breakfast each morning in Chops. Even though no diamond or concierge lounge, we enjoyed the Empress and her crew immensely.
