Anyone recently travelled sky/star class on Allure or Oasis?

[SarcasmSpasm]

Was wondering if anyone can report on the hours for free drinks in suite lounge?  Is it still 11-11?

 

thanks!

Thank you!  Happy to hear that.

We sailed Sky class and our friends sailed Star Class on the Oasis on the June 30th sailing. The suite lounge (which is beautiful by the way) was open from 11:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Service was very friendly, we enjoyed the lounge very much. We would go up nightly for pre-dinner drinks. Enjoy the Oasis -- we loved it.

Can you tell me if you can still access the outdoor deck seating area there?  Thank you!

11-11 is only for beer, wine, and soda (limited options of each). 4:30 - 8 for the normal drinks. What's nice is that with the suite lounge and suite restaurant in the same place, you can have drinks with dinner without needing a drink package or pay for them individually. That's the way it was on the Allure last October. Had to suffer through that for two straight weeks.

No outdoor deck on the Allure next to the Suite Lounge. There is outdoor seating at the pool area for full suites and Pinnacles.

If I remember correctly, Allure has a Suite Sun Deck, but no reserved seating directly by the pool.

Yes many people waiting for clock to hit 4:30, lousy selection of wine 

[Mslynn79]

Complimentary beer and wine are offered starting at 11am? And then hard liquor is included from 4:30-8? Would this be the same for Symphony? Sorry for asking what is probably a dumb question, but it will be our first time sailing sky class.

That’s the problem with rccl different perks depending on type of ship , prefer perks on celebrity since suites have dinning room on all ships and suite lounge is open all day for all drinks not just beer and wine ( except for tiny ships for Galapagos)

Free wine on Allure in May was not good and I'm not even picky. It was disappointing. There are many inexpensive good tasting wine. One of the red wines tasted like straight up vinegar. I started drinking mimosas at 11am and that was palatable.

[Tricia28]

Also wanted to mention that we received our suite concierge email today for our Harmony August 11 sailing next Sunday in Sky Class and no mention was made of any free alcohol until the evening hour. Wondering if they are doing away with the free beer, wine and champagne that used to start at 11am?

We got ours today for August 11th Allure.  It states, A selection of complimentary wine, champagne, beer and soft drinks is available from 11:00 am - 11:00 pm in the Suite Lounge.

Nope, free flowing now

I already have the drink package (Thanks to the “intern who cannot type”) but curious if the free beer is tap beer or bottles/cans.

Thanks

Bottles and cans have been our experience.

Our first time in a suite too coming up. Can you tell me if the servers on Coastal Kitchen are happy to fetch the free wine/drinks from the Suite Lounge or would one need to leave their table and fetch it themselves?

Fab, thanks.

 

Have been weighing up the deluxe drinks package. Have always had it before but with coffee and waters in the room and a few SL drinks before dinner and now wine when we dine at CK, I think we’ve made the right decision to drop the drinks package. Of some of the nights we are not dining in CK we have one night at Chefs Table so wine taken care of their too
