Debinwaller Posted January 26, 2023 Report Share Posted January 26, 2023 We are on Adventure this week and found out some BAD information ! We hadn’t seen lobster night come up and we only had two days left. So I checked with guest services and was informed that starting with our cruise, Royal would no longer offer Lobster Night! I told him there were gonna be a lot of disappointed folks cause we loved that special night!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampurp85 Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 There is no more lobster night. They have a night where lobster is on there but it's the second formal night. ChessE4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DunwoodyDad Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 OP said Adventure which looks to be sailing 4/5 night cruises, which I don’t think has had lobster nights for a while (old or new menus). I believe they are only on 7 night or more cruises. RCIfan1912, Neesa and Rackham 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampurp85 Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 Adventure can do 6/8 nights but it still stands that it's on the 2nd formal night. With the new menus people are getting confused. Not to mention it's less lobster because they now charge for anything over one.

ChessE4 Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 In December, no lobster on 5N Allure cruise, which jives with only having one formal night. RCIfan1912 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Last Lion Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 So if you are on a 14 day TA, would there be two lobster nights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't count on more than one lobster night, but the general guideline for a 14-night sailing is 3 formal nights... https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/generic-onboard-dress-code WAAAYTOOO and RCIfan1912 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steverk Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 Adventure is on a 5 night cruise. If memory serves, Royal hasn't had lobster on 5 night cruises for a long time. I remember one from 5 years ago when they did, but nothing post pandemic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoomSlayer Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 Adventure is just 4/5 night sailings. Was on it just before X-Mas and scheduled on it again in March. On my pre-X-Mas cruise, the only lobster available in the main dining room during was available with an upcharge if you ordered from the chops specialty section, not the main menu. I am not sure I have seen lobster night on any of my recent 4/5 night sailings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtran Posted May 18, 2023 Report Share Posted May 18, 2023 Onboard the Symphony now on a 7 night Mediterranean, the crew is confirming that there is no more lobster night on Mediterranean cruises - only on Caribbean itinerarys.

michaelp1446 Posted May 18, 2023 Report Share Posted May 18, 2023 Jewel on Northern Europe sailing confirmed no lobster on second formal night. We were told not available on EU sailings.

People who don't know just spreading rumors and especially lies. It's always been like this. So nothing new or bad. Royal Caribbean can't possibly transport hundreds of thousands of lobsters from Carribean to Europe. And then, same guests who hate Royal Caribbean book Celebrity or Disney which is 2, 3 times the cruise fare alone. You can't possibly compare apples to oranges!!! Most of us can't spend 5-10 thousands on a cruise vacation. Rackham 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jays2rc Posted May 25, 2023 Report Share Posted May 25, 2023 We had lobster night in March on Allure of the Seas out of Galveston on a 7-night cruise. The only change was a $16.95 charge for additional lobsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampurp85 Posted May 25, 2023 Report Share Posted May 25, 2023 So for reference, lobster night is usually on 7n+ sailings that depart from the US. Med sailings and ones less than 7n won't have a lobster night. So it isn't that there aren't any lobster nights, it's that they aren't had on particular cruises.

No lobster on a 8 day cruise to Norway out of Copenhagen in 2015. This was back in the days when the menu had names like "sage" and you could get a chilled soup every night.

CrimsonCruiser Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 so...as someone who doesn't eat shellfish and therefore never participated in lobster night... What makes it lobster night? was it just the unlimited part? because reading this topic, it sounds like there's no free lobster at all and we just got off of Harmony and on the second formal night in the main dining room you can the lobster tail as part of the included dining just like before...so I'm confused by all this "no lobster night" talk.

I don't eat lobster. But usually on the second formal night of a 7n cruise from USA ports there was unlimited lobster. The new change is you get one lobster tail and have to pay for any extras. You can also upcharge lobster as you stated. Neesa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And people are mad enough about the lack of unlimited that they don't think there's a lobster night at all anymore? I just think that language will be confusing to first timers who may think there's no free lobster period.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampurp85 Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 This entire post was misleading. The original OP was talking about a cruise shorter than 7N and then people sailing on Med/European cruises kept replying that they didn't have a lobster night. When that criteria wouldn't qualify anyway. It just like when people post they removed something, and a ship never had it....i.e. Freestyle machines on Liberty.

Yeah, it's terrible quality, minuscule lobster tails. For included, it is okay. But for $16 it's WAAAY overpriced. I can get better tails from my local Acme for $8-$12 right now.
