royal girl Posted February 9, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Hi. On the Anthem, are we able to get three comp drinks (per Diamond Member) between 5:30 - 8 pm in any bar or in the Diamond Lounge? That's how it was on the Oasis last April. Thanks! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biker19 Posted February 9, 2016 #4 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Three drinks from any bar and unlimited drinks in the Diamond Lounge. I'm pretty sure you can't get one at the Bionic bar - there may be other exclusions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted February 9, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Bionic Bar is the only "bar" exclusion. Of course, you can't use the vouchers in any restaurant. And just like your Oasis experience, the same "list" applies, Lounge or bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libertybelle41 Posted February 9, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 9, 2016 But the three coupons can be used throughout the ship still require you to order off the "special menu" of drink options. You can't just order any type of drink, yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mek Posted March 30, 2016 #10 Share Posted March 30, 2016 We just turned Diamond on our last cruise. I read on another post that a glass of wine can be taken from the lounge to dinner. Is that correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackshirt Posted March 30, 2016 #11 Share Posted March 30, 2016 We just turned Diamond on our last cruise. I read on another post that a glass of wine can be taken from the lounge to dinner. Is that correct? Technically, taking drinks from the DL is not allowed but like many rules, it may or may not enforced. The DL concierge on our last cruise (Explorer) actually got in a bit of trouble with upper management for not enforcing the rule. One night a number of officers were in the lounge doing some sort of inspection and they witnessed a number of guests leaving with drinks. The next night, the DL concierge put a notice on every table reminding guests not to take drinks out of the DL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaylemh Posted March 30, 2016 #12 Share Posted March 30, 2016 (edited) We were able to take 1 drink to dinner on Anthem. I can't see what difference it makes, if it comes from the DL or a bar, you can go to any bar and get a drink to take to dinner.

tserface Posted March 30, 2016 #15 Share Posted March 30, 2016 On Adventure last year we just went to the Diamond Club and then, if we wanted, stopped at a bar and used one of our vouchers to get a glass of wine to take to dinner. They never required the vouchers in the DC so as long as we were before the deadline to use them they were still available on our cards. The wine bar guy was especially nice to us and even gave us some pretty good pours. We tipped him, of course, but it was still a super good deal.

GMomKassie Posted April 7, 2016 #16 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Is this 3 vouchers given for entire cruise or daily vouchers? Is unlimited drinks in Diamond Lounge daily? Also, has anyone bought beverage package. Wondering if it is cost effective? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cot427 Posted April 7, 2016 #18 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Instead of taking drinks out of the Diamond lounge, which is discouraged. Just go there before dinner, say 5pm, have one or two drinks and then leave about 5:45 so you can stop at a bar on the way to the dining room to get a drink with your voucher. That still leaves two drinks to use after dinner, pending you have enough time! That process worked out very well for me on Oasis last year. I would stop at the R Bar/Champagne Bar.

Biker19 Posted April 7, 2016 #20 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Also, has anyone bought beverage package. Wondering if it is cost effective? You'd have to drink 6 drinks per day on top of the DL and coupon allowance to make it effective - basically become an alcoholic for that sailing.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camofwilliamsburg Posted April 7, 2016 #21 Share Posted April 7, 2016 On our last 3 RCCL cruises the times were from 4:30 -8 PM. The drinks were very limited. You could get a mojito which was nice. I asked for it frozen and was told no. I got a mai tai too. Asked for that as a frozen drink and was told no. One night I went to the Schooner bar and he said NO also. I commented that all that is extra is putting it in a blender. Nothing more added. He told me he would allow me to have that once. It was very disappointing.

robtulipe Posted April 7, 2016 #23 Share Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) On our last 3 RCCL cruises the times were from 4:30 -8 PM. On our last two cruises, which were 12 night sailings on Anthem this year, it was from 5 to 8:30 for the Diamond and higher status complimentary drinks both at bars and in the Diamond and Concierge's lounges. Same with our Radiance Oz cruise last April. On our B2B Freedom cruises last October this time was from 4:30 to 8:00pm so it can vary by an 1/2 hour depending on the ship. All were confirmed by the DL Concierge letters which I kept along with the Cruise Compass dailies. Since this thread was concerning Anthem that's why I mentioned the 5 to 8:30 period but at least both periods gave 3 1/2 hours of free drinks which is what I wanted to pass on. I also should have mentioned since on both of our Anthem cruises they were using the Music Hall area just outside the DL as an overflow area for the DL thus the upper or deck 4 bar there rarely scanned our cards if drinks were requested at that bar during the C&A free drinks period. ;) Edited April 7, 2016 by robtulipe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
