Bowen Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 I think this is just going to be something people ought to expect, they definitely renamed that lounge for a reason.

Shanethegriff Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Is this a new general rule that you've seen or just on a specific sailing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They changed the name to Crown lounge about a a month ago and told everyone not to worry, that it wouldn’t affect Diamond members. Then it came out that it would exclude Diamond members, but only on specific sailings. Then people started getting notices that their sailing would have too many diamonds and so the lounge would only be Diamond plus and up. This is my first sailing since that announcement and we got a notice saying Diamond is not allowed in the lounge from 5-8 pm. My speculation is that this will become the norm. You can still use the lounge, just not at night during prime time. Neesa, RCIfan1912 and WAAAYTOOO 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not a huge deal in the end but kinda screwy. WAAAYTOOO and Neesa 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattycruise Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 I’m on Jewel.  No crown lounge access for diamonds between 5 and  8 due to the large number of D+ and pinnacle.  They have someone standing outside to check seapass cards.  The funny thing is you can also enter via the Viking lounge! .  I went once for the snacks and what a disappointment. Dried out fish things, cheese looked like it sat forever. Messy. Definitely not worth it.  I’m glad it confirmed my aversion to the lounge between 5 and 8!

Jolly Ogre Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 So now that they have guards there, are they there all day? What happens if you are in at 4:45? Do they come and escort you out? Neesa, TXcruzer and RCIfan1912 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand your thought, just want to clarify. RCIfan1912 and Neesa 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
