Freestyle on serenade

[eem0924]

Is there a freestyle machine on serenade?

They have not added freestyle machines on this ship for some reason. Most drink locations will fill your soda package cup with a soda gun. Some bars only have bottled two liters to fill your cup (vintages).

Have they changed this and added them for the world cruise?

Will add that to the list of things we will be looking for on our B2B immediately prior to the WC.

Doing the Repo part of B3B next month, be interesting see if any Changes started even then. Last time was on Serenade they were cleaning out the Deck 3 Covid Isolation Wing

Just off my first cruise on Serenade (Aug 12-17 2023) and loved it.  Didn't notice any significant changes yet that would indicate it was being prepped for the World Cruise (they did repaint the lines on the promenade shuffleboard court if that counts).

I can confirm there are no freestyle machines.  I did see some bars pouring sodas from 2 liter bottles.  I drink Coke Zero and at the Solarium and Pool bars they would just hand me a can of it (or pour it into the beverage cup with ice if I had it with me).  Random aside... the drink package beverage cup I got on Serenade was smaller than what I got on Oasis and Anthem last year.

Yikes... I was on Deck 3.  Didn't know it was the COVID wing. 😮

Thanks for the info, that's interesting.  Always wondered how they kept the COVID folks isolated.  Of course, that's exactly where my cabin was.  Just forward of the front elevators (3530).  🤷‍♂️

Yeah they were cleaning them out last Oct, probably cleaner now then a non-isolation Cabin 😁
