"YES" (we all had the beverage package). " No it's NOT free , you paid for it since you had the beverage package. The other foods were not free they were included in your cruise fare. It seems a common mistake that people ( not just the OP ) state something was free when in reality it is baked into your fare. Possibly replace "Really, it's free?" with "Really, it's not an extra charge?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be a generational thing, but people are no longer standing idle while they watch a guest berate an employee. Interject. Just be firm and calm. “Sir, you're being inappropriate.” If he snaps back, you can say, “I’m sorry you got the wrong drink. I’m sure you would agree we’d all like to move on and enjoy our dinner.” It's the same as my elementary school-aged kids. If they see someone bullying another kid, they're supposed to speak up. I can assure you, you would regret saying anything to me cruiser to cruiser ... sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely - if we had a favorable impression of the wait(er)(ress), I would speak to either the HW or the DR Mgr and indicate that the passenger is a jerk or a-h and the employee not deserving of the dressing down (s)he received. At least there would be someone else sticking up for them. I hear what you are saying, but I also suspect you would not be one acting like the person described in the earlier post. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynnSD Posted July 11, 2023 #55 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I like Steelers approach. Let the managers know it’s the passenger not the waiter. Jeez, too much negativity! You’re on vacation! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
