puggylicious Posted March 25, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Is there a diamond breakfast on the Explorer? We recently sailed on board the Empress and they held a diamond breakfast on the second floor of the dining room. It was very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CntPAcruiser Posted March 27, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 27, 2018 A diamond seating area was offered at breakfast in the main dining room on Explorer last time we sailed on her. Depending on the ship, sometimes they use a separate doorway with a sign indicating that it is only diamond and up; other times you walk in and let the person at the door/desk know you would like to be seated in the diamond section.

Wow, I haven't seen a Diamond breakfast seating area in a number of years. I didn't realize any ships still offered it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouhunter Posted March 27, 2018 #4 Share Posted March 27, 2018 There was a Diamond seating area on Independence recently in the MDR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squadron Posted March 27, 2018 #5 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Wow, I haven't seen a Diamond breakfast seating area in a number of years. I didn't realize any ships still offered it. Had it in MDR on Radiance last Sept - very nice - met same people daily. Just off Liberty and it wasn`t available. Hate large tables at breakfast because so many can`t make up their minds about the menu and it becomes too time consuming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 2-hour breakfast can sometimes be fine, but I'd rather it be my choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseguy1016 Posted March 28, 2018 #10 Share Posted March 28, 2018 My question is, if you're walking into the same dining room but just sitting in a different area, is it the same breakfast as the "regular folks"? What makes it a "Diamond Breakfast"? Do Diamond members get to order from a special menu or do they just get to sit in a special area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwest the man Posted March 28, 2018 #12 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Just off the independence and they had it. The big difference for me was the much faster service compared to the regular side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's the same breakfast...just a designated area...nothing really special. That said, IMHO, the waiters are typically the best and can often remember what you want to order and where you want to sit...specially if they see you every morning. What's nice is there's usually no line to get in. We end up making friends because we see the same people every morning.:) Edited March 28, 2018 by bonsai3s word Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mearley09 Posted March 28, 2018 #14 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Heading out on FOS in 2 weeks. Does anyone know if/where they do this on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CntPAcruiser Posted March 30, 2018 #15 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Heading out on FOS in 2 weeks. Does anyone know if/where they do this on it? They had this last year when we were on Freedom. It's in the same dining room that is open for breakfast, just off to one side. I forget if they had a separate entrance or if you just mentioned you were diamond at the podium as you walked in. As for the specialty coffee, we were constantly told that the machine wasn't working in the MDR and we'd have to get our own in the diamond lounge, but amazingly, others elsewhere in the MDR were getting cappuccinos or lattes. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
