JJean Posted February 15, 2020 #1 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Who should we ask for wine glasses. We asked the steward and he said we could get them from the bar. We did that a few times and then they said get it from your Steward, asked the front desk and they said call room service. Before we have always just picked up 2 from the bar.

2 mains Posted February 15, 2020 #2 Share Posted February 15, 2020 We usually call room service and they happily bring empty glasses of any type. Usually ask for a bucket of ice for our wine bottle and two fresh glasses and never wait long for them to appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satxdiver Posted February 15, 2020 #3 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Call room service as soon as you enter your cabin. We also request a bucket of ice and give them a $3 tip when it is delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Room Service will bring them to you along with a champagne bucket if you need it! Getting them from a bar is another option, however. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus Traveller Posted February 15, 2020 #6 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I pick them up from a bar so I don't have to bother either the room steward or room service. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just call RS using the quick link button on your cabin phone, or pick up from most bars. I get a water glass because they are shaped better for red win especially. The std wine glass is too small.

neverbeenhere Posted February 15, 2020 #10 Share Posted February 15, 2020 We have the list. Four wine glasses, one extra pillow, one extra blanket, one shower cap. Professor S. T. Eward brings when it fits his schedule. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brisalta Posted February 15, 2020 #11 Share Posted February 15, 2020 There are usually a rack of wine glasses on the steward's cart to replace dirty ones in the staterooms. The quickest way to get wine glasses after boarding is to politely ask for empty ones at a bar. Please make note of the word politely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did that once when we had a cabin on that deck. They only have plastic glasses. Wine does not taste as good out of plastic. 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wine and water glasses (and the smaller bathroom glasses) are on the stewards carts. I just politely ask to have the wine and extra glasses when they get a chance. In doing this they will know what we need and keep the bar area stocked with new glasses as we use them. Happy Trails 🥃🍷 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reina del Mar Posted February 15, 2020 #17 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Have never had a problem with steward bringing wine glasses on request at boarding. If all else fails, they are available in buffet at dinner. Just ask there, or help yourself ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're better off getting a couple of water glasses at the buffet during dinner to bring to the DR the following night. They hold about 1 1/2 times the typical Princess wine pour...just enough to get us through dinner without a refill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antmaril Posted February 15, 2020 #20 Share Posted February 15, 2020 (edited) I was on the Sky Princess in late January. On the first day, I asked the room steward for two wine glasses. He told me I could order them from Room Service. Then, he brought us a glass of champagne (we were in a minisuite) and we decided to just use those for our wine. That night, after turndown, the room steward had brought us two proper wine glasses. Edited February 15, 2020 by antmaril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliforniaDon Posted February 15, 2020 #22 Share Posted February 15, 2020 We use a pre-typed up form to introduce ourselves (includes our names and cabin #). On it, I say that we would like two small wine glasses and that we will rinse them and put them away for the next day. The note also mentions a request for distilled water, and that we only need ONE robe and stuff like that. We end with a note of appreciation for how busy they are and that we will try to be model passengers. I don't know if THEY appreciate the "handout", it makes me feel like I am helping them a tiny bit. We have always gotten our wine glasses by happy hour on boarding day.

Thrak Posted February 15, 2020 #24 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Sometimes the steward just notices our wine in the cabin and glasses appear without asking for them. Other times we pick up a couple from a bar and take them to the cabin. Sometimes the steward will provide clean wine glasses every day. Others don't provide glasses and remove the used ones from our cabin. To avoid having them disappear when the room is cleaned we have rinsed them and put them in a cupboard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookmama22 Posted February 15, 2020 #25 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Just off the Regal Princess and our steward brought us two wine glasses when he saw we had brought wine aboard and he did replace them with clean glasses daily 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
