big al Posted September 1, 2021 #1 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Hi All- I heard that now as a Diamond member you are allowed 5 drinks per day ANYTIME or ANYWHERE on the ship..is this true? Before you had to get the drinks like up to 8 pm and only certain bars honored them..also: do the 5 drinks a day include Coco Cay and Labadee? Is this information found on the RCI website? Thanks!

Big Al Diamonds get 4 drinks a day, all day, anywhere including the private islands. Well except room service and the mini bar. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big al Posted September 1, 2021 Author #4 Share Posted September 1, 2021 I just read on the RCI site that Diamond members get 4 drinks a day, not 5..5 is for Diamond Plus, which we will be soon..doesn't say about the 2 private islands, though...

Another_Critic Posted September 1, 2021 #6 Share Posted September 1, 2021 To add ... drinks in the Diamond lounge are now charged a voucher. No more free unlimited Diamond lounge drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sea calls my name Posted September 1, 2021 #8 Share Posted September 1, 2021 I love this new change and hope it continues. It was so nice last week to be able to get a "voucher" drink during the middle of the day, or after the nightly show. Also, things I like ( like Sauvignon Blanc) I can now use a Diamond Voucher for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, because there's an actual human bartender there processing the charge on your card. Just let them know you want to use a Diamond Voucher.

brookmill18 Posted September 1, 2021 #13 Share Posted September 1, 2021 I'm assuming the answer is yes, but a Diamond level under 21 can use the 4 drinks a day for speciality coffees, non-alcoholic drinks at bars, sodas, etc? They can be used at Cafe Promenade or Coffee station at Wind Jammer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre-Covid, the vouchers were only for 21 and over. If anyone has info, would love to know. Was rethinking getting her the soda package and could avoid paying for some mocha lattes at Cafe Promenade!

RFerrington Posted September 2, 2021 #17 Share Posted September 2, 2021 I’ve read conflicting information on this one, too. In the past vouchers were only for adults but I believe @smokeybandit reported that all D+ regardless of age were able to redeem coupons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bren61 Posted September 2, 2021 #19 Share Posted September 2, 2021 I thought I read that as of Sept 1st they are opening the Diamond lounges back up. Will they still be using the vouchers, or will we go back to the cocktail hours for free drinks in the lounge between certain hours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Diamond Lounge will be open but the free drinks during Happy Hour are a thing of the past. Any drink you get in the Diamond Lounge will require payment. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
