Only the Sky Suite has some kind of bar soap. All other suites and cabins on the Sky it is not supplied and is not available. It is not fleet wide yet. Thank you for asking your steward. We'll be on Enchanted next July so I know not to expect bar soap. Disappointed. I'm not washing my face with pump soap. Guess we'll bring our own. Link to post Share on other sites

We use Dove at home but don't mind the Princess bars. I'm very disappointed they cut back on the bar soap. Not everyone wants gel or pump soap. New cruisers won't know to bring their own if they want a bar. 5 Link to post Share on other sites

The last cruise we took, the PB cookies were not "out". I'd read on CC that you have to ask. So, I did. Asked in the buffet and the server that I asked delivered 4 (asked for 2) right to my table...they were still warm. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
DrivesLikeMario Posted November 11, 2019 #82 Share Posted November 11, 2019 It's the same with the triangular-shaped hash browns. If they happen to not have them in the breakfast buffet, just ask. Most mornings, they had a secret stash of them. 😉 1 Link to post Share on other sites
azbirdmom Posted November 12, 2019 #83 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Interesting upgrade to Alfredo's. Wonder why they need the computers? Hope they aren't setting it up for cover charges in the future. 😕 Link to post Share on other sites
Host CJSKIDS Posted November 12, 2019 #84 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Keith, have you seen Jovie bartending around The Sky at all? I know she was talking about going there and I'm so hoping to see her again. Hope the weather has cleared up for you. Link to post Share on other sites

dogdoc2002 Posted November 12, 2019 #90 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I saw on a the live from thread from the previous sailing the Freestyle soda machines weren't onboard yet. Any sign of them yet? Or if anyone onboard has an idea when they'll be added? We sail on the Sky in December and debating getting the soda package since the price jumped so much since our last sailing 3 years ago. I prefer Coke Zero and may opt to just carry on soda if the machines aren't ready next month. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

sunsetbeachgal Posted November 12, 2019 #98 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Keith, This is a fantastic thread and love your pictures! The changes to Princess Live and Club 6 look great. Can’t wait for your weather to improve so you can give us a phot tour of the Retreat Pool area and other outside areas. Thanks again! Enjoy your cruise! We sail on the Sky in January.

I also liked the revised Trattoria menu...fried calamari & the Burrata with tomatoes are back. 👍 I think there were 7 pasta options (got the 3 pastas sampler) and got the dessert sampler with all 4 options. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
