Do you get a bottle of wine plus a gift plus a snack item, or do you choose one of those things on the list of amenties? TIA I've been getting a random bottle of wine or champagne from guest service. Chefs choice is whatever snack they choose to deliver. The amenities you pick. You can call and set it for a certain bottle of wine, but they may substitute. Mine are set to chocolate truffles and the beach bag. I get 3. The beach bag counts as 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t see where it says that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe when they said that they were short, just got them in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted October 30, 2023 #29 Share Posted October 30, 2023 For a couple of cruises, we ordered the beach tote (the blue and white stripe) as one of our 3 gifts. It did not count as 2. I’ve never heard of any selection that counted as 2 gifts (yet). m 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should cal, and cancel it anyway. I've been giving the bags away. Trying to cut down on cruise junk before I move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tardy Posted October 30, 2023 #31 Share Posted October 30, 2023 the way I read the beach bag amenity is that it is one bag per house hold ( or per cabin so. if two in cabin only one bag left but counted as one amenity on each guests list...

You were given the wrong info by a Royal employee. Each time I have called Royal as to my welcome gift preference, I have been told I could only select 1 bag. When I am on the ship, I visit the loyalty ambassador & get the amount of bags I prefer. Completed a b2b this month and was given 6 bags over the 2 cruises. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can call Royal if you have not already and specify your preference e.g. toiletry bag.

nelblu Posted October 31, 2023 #38 Share Posted October 31, 2023 On 10/29/2023 at 9:51 AM, cruisegirl1 said: And to make to more confusing, many YEARS AGO ( 20 or more), there actually were welcome aboard gifts provided to passengers. I don't recall if it was all returning passengers, or those at a certain level. Items such as toiletry bags, photo frames, tote bags, fanny packs (cross body bags😀), hats, then there were snack baskets/boxes. It was not something one could select but a standard gift given to all eligible. Some used to complain about the gift (didn't want what was the current gift, didn't like it etc.) so RCCL got rid of the complaining by eliminating all the welcome gifts. Is this something you recall? M Here’s is photo of 2 gifts. One is from the Adventure and the other from the Vision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coralc Posted November 1, 2023 #40 Share Posted November 1, 2023 (edited) They are great! Just chocolate truffles in pastel colors with a hint of fruit flavor! But you will probably get something else instead. There are photos online, but we ate ours. 😚 1 hour ago, gkbiiii said: Does anyone have any idea what the "Fruit Truffles" are and what they look like. Have seen no pics and no reviews: am confused?

Fruit flavored. Lime and orange etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
