workingboy Posted June 9 #1 Share Posted June 9 Hi all: Sailing on a short cruise on the Navigator in November. I haven't sailed on Royal for over 12 years. (We are primarily on Celebrity) Quick question - is there Breakfast available in Chops for Diamond plus members? Thanks in advance!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcur Posted June 9 #2 Share Posted June 9 According to the C&A benefits chart published last October 2023, that benefit is for Pinnacle only. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nelblu Posted June 10 #4 Share Posted June 10 As a D+ with 340+ points never been invited. However, I do attend Cheers with Officers luncheon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe @workingboyis getting D+ from his Celebrity ‘match’ and I believe any amenities for being D+ which are based on your C&A ‘points’ apply. Since some Celebrity passengers sailing on Royal using their ‘match’ status, will not have a lot of C&A points, they would not get invited to Cheers w/Officers. You would not get invitation to Chops breakfast as it is a benefit for Pinnacles and guests in suites. Edited June 10 by wallyj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveru621 Posted June 10 #6 Share Posted June 10 On Radiance class ships, D+ was available in Chops for many years. It was not publicized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew that but wondering if I had missed something. 🤣 I remember many years ago when my wife and I were either D or just made D+ that we were invited to the 'Lunch with an Officer", and I can't recall the ship, but the venue/private room was by the WJ. It was a small group as there were only 4 couples and the Officer. That was the only time invited until I reached the 340 points level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That has not happened in a long...long time, that I know of. On World Cruise, Pinnies not in a suite were not invited into Chops for breakfast. It was pretty dead in there each morning. Was a nice perk for us in a GS though, with fast service as to being only a few couples in there. 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why a Z-to-P would not be eligible for the Suites/Pinn breakfast. That perk is a function of status and not specifically a function of points. Has it been publicized that Z-to-P members will not be eligible for the specialty breakfast ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually made Diamond Plus, with Royal Sailings back before I moved over to Celebrity. Even though I got Elite Status for many cruises on Celebrity with the prior status match, I have actually earned Elite Plus with actual Celebrity sailings at this point. Thanks to all for your responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted June 11 #18 Share Posted June 11 On Freedom, I remember being able to bring my WJ plate into Chops to eat breakfast in there as D+. But there was no sit down and order full breakfast from Chop's staff in there...if that is what you were talking about? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There used to be the opportunity to have breakfast in one of the restaurants adjacent to the WJ for D, D+ and Pin pre covid, but that disappeared after the restart. Now it is reserved for just Pins and Suites. Edited June 11 by orville99 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted June 11 #22 Share Posted June 11 2 hours ago, steveru621 said: See post #6. Yes...again...yes...again yes I know, I read that post. But was it the "carry the plate you filled up at the WJ" like we did on Freedom to eat in there...or the order from the Chops crew members...like it is now for Pinnacles and suites? Otherwise...bottom line last few years...and current. No...D+ does not have access to Chops for breakfast...unless in a full suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and I also remember the special section of the MDR where D and D+ could have an "exclusive" breakfast....which wasn't particularly exclusive, but they did give you fresh squeezed juice for nuttin' ! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
