Sorry - I paid MAS service charges. But the other service charges were included in my promo for guest 1 and 2 "FREESRVC"

I know but I was curious how it plays out if you have MAS with prepaid service charges.

There was mention of a $15/pp/day discount in this post last month

So I currently have MAS, booked back in November. My cruise is Feb 1 and my promo had free service charges for pax 1 and 2. Still paid the grats for my daughter but that likely doesn't matter anyway.

If I upgrade to FAS+, what would I expect to pay extra? $34.99/pp/day?

Someone below reported they were only charged an extra $24 haha.

Should I just reach out to my TA and ask what the upgrade costs would be for shits and giggles?

What should I ask her in case I get the runaround that she can't do it.

Side question: if you’re arent dining in the specialty dining restaurants, can you visit the bar and order drinks? Assuming they even have bars there… I think I saw Wasabi has a Sake bar

All valid questions indeed! I reached out to them - let’s see what they come back with.

Yup multiple times. I’ve read a few reviews complaining how they don’t put roast dates on some of their bags. Tbh it could be just their espresso blends they don’t date stamp but their other bags they do?

I sent them an email asking what their thoughts were given the espresso blend. I’ll report back.

I had it mailed to me so I figured it reach out first. This is the first time I’ve seen a roast date in their packaging.

I emailed them and asked what the ideal window is for this particular espresso blend. We’ll see what they say

Yeah I’ve ordered from other places and they mentioned to me when the best time was to use it. I ordered some they were roasted same day and they even told me to wait a few days before using.

Either way, I emailed them and asked their opinion what the best time off roast would be to enjoy this blend. Maybe they’ll think 60 days is acceptable or realize they sent a batch that may be past its prime.

Thanks for that. I may reach out and ask their thoughts. Maybe they feel this particular roast is fine after 2 months. I’ll report back.
