I stopped cruising on RC when this all started. I’d been cruising with them 20 years and they bump me for a suite guest who may never cruise again? What’s the point of the locality program?
I completely understand. When the Key was introduced too I was also a bit shocked as well at the fact that people can now essentially buy-in to get the same perks. I definitely share your sentiment because “what about us?”. We’ve spent years getting to where we are. Thanks for sharing!
This is a bit of a weird grey area, as some say yes and some say no. I don’t usually partake in the happy hour but I’ve heard that it can vary ship to ship.
Thank for this, as D+ since 2010 we have been affected by so many changes it is difficult not to choose other cruise lines. Next year, 2025 is our first RCL cruise in six years because of the way they treated us.

Aren’t the drinks during happy hour free and don’t count against your vouchers for diamond plus?

Of course! I completely agree and understand too, it is frustrating. Hopefully the cruise goes well!
Great information 👏
First I’ve heard about this. None of the other (major) RUclips vloggers have mentioned it.
It still states on the website that diamond will still have access
They do have access! It’s just restricted around the times on certain ships/sailings with regards to the small eats :)
