Richard’s rooftop happy hour changes

Just saw this on another website. This makes enjoying RR even nicer during happy hour. Love the new addition to free offerings.

This is very cool.  I wonder how they'll "monitor" this.  The cruise I was on there was a group we ended up hanging out with most nights that would stockpile glasses of Moet so they could keep the party going past 6.

 

The spirits seem like mostly the same things they stock the room bar with, but the cocktails and wine will be a nice addition to the Moet.

That’s a nice addition, even if none of the cocktails are quite to my taste. Bit surprising there are no mocktail or premium non-alcoholic options though.

Probably the same way they do the Moet--not at all.  The bar will likely quit serving at 6, but whatever you have on your table before that is yours....even if it is several "extras."

With a big bar tab, and a ton of loot on our sailing this Fall as Rock Stars, I don't foresee us hoarding a bunch of drinks before they cut us off, otherwise we'd never be able to walk to dinner. 🤣

Does anyone know which ship this is on?

Valiant Lady is what I saw, with the suggestion it was fleet wide.

this happens on every voyage i've been on.  the crew always swings by at like 5:59 for "last call" to top you off, and they'll frequently offer additional glasses if they still have a bottle open that they need to kick.

Yeah.  They definitely didn't bat an eye at the stockpiling, and when I would walk up they would just ask how many so I would bring a couple handfuls back for the group.  I guess, really, the other options on that menu are probably not much more expensive than a glass of Moet as far as what they charge for the drinks on board so the cost wouldn't be much different regardless of what you're stockpiling.

For what you pay for a suite, especially since the price increase, a few extra glasses of these items is essentially nothing.  If they really cared, they would quit handing out black bracelets to people who call themselves "influencers" but put up 2 or 3 poor quality YouTubes about VV.  There are people who do good videos, but there are some who appear with their complimentary black bracelet and are awful.

Absolutely.  the number of videos I have seen on Tik tok recently with people reviewing their sea terrace suite one minute and up on Richard's rooftop the next initially confused me.  Then I realized this was going on.
