Review summary

Was very displeased with your "new" 3-FREE drink program for DIAMOND CLUB MEMBERS. Your restrictions on the TYPE OF DRINK and the TIME SCHEDULE (4:30-8:00). We could not participate in events and enjoy our drinks when we wanted them. Poor decision on ROYAL CARIBBEAN to change these two areas.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
It seams the ship was a bit understaffed at times, table dirty a much longer period than in the past on our many other cruises. Needed attention in many of the mens-restrooms. floors wet, urinals over flowing.

Cabin / Stateroom

Athan was very attentive on our needs.

This is not a new Diamond policy and even in the Diamond lounge you are limited on what type of drinks you can get. We always get the booze package and we drink what we want...When we want.

Agree. Not a new policy at all. Most Diamonds and up get pretty tipsy during the happy hour with unlimited booze for 3+ hours which basically accommodates early and late dinner seatings. One thing I didn't like on Liberty is that they don't honor diamond happy hour in MDR as they do on Oasis class and the lounge is small. I can live with the brand limitations since it's still top shelf.

It's not a new program or drink package. They have always offered the free "perk" during Happy Hour for Diamond members. We always purchase Deluxe Drink packages... We drink what we want when we want and as much as we want.

We are Diamond as well but we always purchase Deluxe Drink packages. We like to drink what we want when we want and as much as we want... no restrictions of any sort.
