Tom47 Posted December 22, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 22, 2022 According to this article, an upside down pineapple indicates the couple participate in "the lifestyle"(swingers). I have been on 24 cruises and have seen straight up pineapples, indicating pinnacle status on RCI cruises, but never an upside down pineapple. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/swinging-holidays-are-on-the-up-heres-why-7khpbdqbn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know people who just like the tropical nature of pineapple and use it as a cute motif—no signaling intended.

NateUpNorth Posted December 22, 2022 #5 Share Posted December 22, 2022 There were a pair of pineapples upside down via magnets on a stateroom door on our floor last week. It could have been the scenario you've indicated.... magnets not quite strong enough to keep them upright.... or a joke. Who knows... we laughed and moved on.

They didn't pay attention when they were pinning it on or started HH long before getting dressed or both. 🤣🍻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BND Posted December 22, 2022 #7 Share Posted December 22, 2022 This has been the subject of several threads over the years. I thought everyone who cruised knew it. I avoid buying anything with pineapples on it lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helen haywood Posted December 22, 2022 #11 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Where I come from, the pineapple is a symbol of hospitality and an upside down pineapple means it’s time for a guest to leave. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
