Royal Caribbean Restores Drink-Package Request Option
The cruise line is also offering double points on newly booked sailings, while a sprinkler incident affected Anthem of the Seas.
Royal Caribbean again permits customers to call and request a non-alcoholic beverage package when another adult sharing their cabin buys the Deluxe Beverage Package. The option returns about a year after it was removed.
The restored drink-package exemption comes with a stricter approval process and significant penalties for violations, according to the report. Details of the approval requirements and penalties were not provided.
Separately, Royal Caribbean is offering double points on newly booked cruises. The revived promotion includes two changes to its rules, though the supplied information does not specify those revisions.
On Anthem of the Seas, fire sprinklers activated in the Royal Esplanade. Water sprayed from the ceiling to the floor, covering the area. No cause for the activation was provided.
The State Department has also issued a warning against taking marijuana outside the United States, including aboard cruise ships, according to the report. Royal Caribbean prohibits passengers from bringing marijuana on its ships, even when it is permitted where a traveler lives.
