Royal Caribbean Testing New Unlimited Alcohol Package Rule

Posted: July 10, 2022

Health & Safety, Onboard Features, ,

Royal Caribbean is trailing a new policy modification for its unlimited alcohol package.

The new policy will required all adults occupying a stateroom to purchase an unlimited alcohol package if one adult in the room purchases it.

Cruise Critic is reporting Harmony of the Seas will test out the new policy during a few sailings, where all passengers 21 years old and older will be required to purchase a beverage package, if at least one other person in their cabin has one.

This trial package will be for eight Harmony of the Seas sailings starting September 30, 2022 through November 18, 2017.

Clearly the program is being tested as a consequence of too many guests sharing drink package benefits with other guests who have not purchased the drink package.

When Royal Caribbean first announced their drink packages, they stipulated that all adults in the same stateroom must purchase a drink package if one did, but the policy was soon dropped thereafter.

Australia, Countries, Onboard Features, ,

Royal Caribbean has updated its towel policy for guests who like borrow towels during the cruise.

The new policy started on January 15, 2017, for guests borrowing as many towels as they like during there cruise, but if they don’t return the towels they will be hit with a a $24.99 replacement fee.

The change in policy was communicated via Royal Caribbean’s Crown and Anchor Society Newsletter.

This new policy is great, as guests don’t need to return there towels immediately, and will be hit will a bill if all towels are not returned prior to the end of the cruise.

Royal Caribbean’s towel policy has changed over the years, with their sometimes being a fee for unreturned towels on certain ships. In January 2014, Royal Caribbean announced it was eliminating the unreturned towel fee, but the fee returned to certain ships in the time since.
