caladezi Posted August 9, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 9, 2022 We will be going on our first cruise post covid and were wondering if there is still a Mariner lunch and tiles given out. We have been collecting for years and hope that it is still an event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john2003 Posted August 9, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 9, 2022 On our May NA cruise we got the tiles but no lunch. There was a drinks reception but no officers turned up. Weird, I thought but maybe Covid precautions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crystalspin Posted August 9, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Have been to only one Mariner lunch. It was nice, with the stewards all in satin shirts, but the line to get in to the dining room was so long other times, we've skipped it other cruises. I understand if you miss the lunch you can collect the tile at Customer Service desk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been no lunches to my knowledge and they leave your tile and any other awards in your room 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half the time, I have no knowledge of the luncheons which is weird but I get my tiles at Guest Services. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare FlaMariner Posted August 9, 2022 #9 Share Posted August 9, 2022 October 2021 ....Mariner's Lunch on the Rotterdam....I can't remember if we got tiles then but it was the inaugural cruise and we got a nice plate. December 2021 ......No Mariner's Lunch on the Nieuw Amsterdam (but it was a 5 day Caribbean run) but we did get tiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people do tile a coffee table and so on. I am not as inventive. I'll bet you would get alot of responses if you started a thread, lol.

fatcat04 Posted August 10, 2022 #12 Share Posted August 10, 2022 We love the tiles so at least we can expect that. My dh puts all our HAL (and cruising) mementos in his office. Lots of his clients cruise so they get a kick out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted August 10, 2022 #13 Share Posted August 10, 2022 We always the loved the Mariners Lunches (which we always skip) because it means that the Lido will not be too crowded :). Hank 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
