Another cutback I suppose. 😁 There was no card on my October cruise on the Enchanted, but the schedule for the lounge was printed on the bottom of one of information sheets provided on boarding. So, no cutback or semi-cutback, take your choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How discounted are the drinks? We've only ordered drinks once, & I don't remember the cost. We go for the appetizers. 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VibeGuy Posted November 26, 2022 #87 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I’d be happy with a mechanism to see the PES apps offer and buffet features in the MC app, on which they’ve spent a bucket of shareholder money. Imagine, an app that shows things to the people who should see it, when they should see it. *puts down bag of gummies not intended for children* 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VibeGuy Posted November 27, 2022 #89 Share Posted November 27, 2022 An adult liver can metabolise about one standard drink per hour. Princess pours are remarkably consistent. Let’s assume one greets the day with a mimosa at 9:30 and has another at 10:30. One then has a glass of Prosecco to pregame lunch at 11:30 and a glass of wine with said lunch at 12:30. One now retires to a sunbed in the Lotus Spa Pool area and commences four hours of languid reading and soaking, each of which has a libation. Perhaps a glass of wine while showering and changing. Roll into the PES event and a couple of Port Lemonades later it’s time for dinner. Sparkling to start, a glass of still with the entrée. A drink with the show, a nightcap after. Boom, there’s 15, it’s not even midnight yet and a 160 pound adult has never had a BAC over 0.02. You can obviously drink a little harder (swap some of those for Beverly Hills Iced Teas), but it’s absolutely possible to max out the package without ever having a noticeable buzz, let alone being drunk and disorderly or even needing much recovery time. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiliconCruiser Posted November 27, 2022 #90 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I've never been, since I was of the opinion that it was just a ruse to sell watered down cocktails. But some of the offerings look inviting, especially those that aren't available in the MDRs. Might be worth exploring ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this still available? If it is they didn't tell us in Regal's internet cafe last year. Had to purchase a full day's internet to spend 5 mins printing off the tickets needed the next morning. I requested to be comped for 5 minutes on the Enchanted Princess (I already knew they couldn't limit me to #minutes). Cafe Mgr complied. But it wasn't a big deal as I booked EZAIR so I was their passenger until I boarded for SFO. Didn't need to print though as I just use mobile boarding passes Never hurts to ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare geoherb Posted November 27, 2022 #93 Share Posted November 27, 2022 There wasn't a card with the menu, but the schedule was included on a handout of all the Elite activities on the Caribbean in August. The strange thing was that even the loyalty and events manager said she did not know the menu ahead of time. I thought it was moderately well attended, but we had more than 1,600 Elite and Platinum passengers on that cruise plus any suite passengers who were not already at one of those levels. I did not have the drink package. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disneyochem Posted November 27, 2022 #94 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I enjoy going just for the appetizers. I need gluten free—I tell them the first night. From then on, there was food I could enjoy! That’s great service in my book! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h20cruzer Posted November 27, 2022 #95 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I was on the Sky TA, went with another couple the last two night sorry I missed the first 12. I did have the drink package. Nice looking appetizers live music snd plenty of places to sit. Felt very relaxing to me. Going on the Royal on Dec 12, with no drink package ( I didn’t drink enough to make it financially worthwhile. Will pay for my drinks as I go. I saw the drink menu of which there are 1 or 2 drinks I could choke down for. $6.50 ha ha. I also have the free mini bar in my room for being elite, as well as the bottle of wine I am allowed to bring onboard. My question is this: do any of the bars offer any type of happy hour pricing on drinks, if so do you know which bars and what kind of discounts? Thanks Norma 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We wouldn’t think of asking them to join us. We will meet up at dinner. Edited November 27, 2022 by billco 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks No. There is no happy hour or discounted drinks other than the limited selection at the PES "event". Prior to the shutdown there was always an affair on a formal night when they did the champagne waterfall. Waiters would circulate through the crowds in the Piazza area with free champagne and some other drinks. There also used to be a "welcome" affair where they had some free drinks. I don't know if those functions have been resumed since the restart. I'm guessing someone else here will know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VibeGuy Posted November 27, 2022 #99 Share Posted November 27, 2022 There used to be an hour or two of limited 2:1 offers at selected bars, but that died before the Recent Unpleasantries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
