Rare FionaMG Posted December 24, 2022 #5 Share Posted December 24, 2022 They've sadly gone downhill big time. Used to be a fancy do with a ton of officers, canapés and roving waiters with a variety of free drinks. Definitely worth attending back in those days. We usually still go, not least because the programme perks are pretty decent and we feel we are showing our appreciation by attending, but we have adjusted our expectations accordingly. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamingos Posted December 24, 2022 #6 Share Posted December 24, 2022 It's really bad sparkling wine, so be sure to get the mimosa instead. 🙂 The captain and top officers come out, tell you the stats for your voyage: how many passengers, how many C&A members, including how many diamond, diamond+, and pinnacles are on board. The top points people get recognized, as well as any new pinnacles or those reaching a milestone number of points. They will give you updates about their ship, or RCI's plans, or new ships and itineraries. On Voyager last summer, the captain started something new by bringing out regular crew members being recognized for achievement or longevity. A couple of them definitely had a deer in the headlights look about them. One was a butcher who had been with RCI for 10 years. I don't know if any other ship does this, but it was nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare little britain Posted December 25, 2022 #13 Share Posted December 25, 2022 On Vision and Brilliance they bought on a crew member who had amazing voices . The young guy in Brilliance was from Zimbabwe and worked in the jewellery shop. He was awesome and they later announced they had forwarded a recording of him singing to the Entertainment department to see if he could move to the entertainment team … 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last cruise it was held at 5PM in one of the lounges. Passengers were happy to have a pre dinner drink (Mimosa) and not use a voucher. M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are listed as 13 anchor and crown gold, thank you. It is a sales pitch for new ships, a little entertainment, and some free drinks. However, Gold is the bottom of the tiers, and it's something you won;t be able to go to, without an invitation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
