I don’t want sodas that badly. I’m Diamond too, and I’m going to just drink ice water instead. It’s also crazy that we have to pay tips on soda packages when we’re using the Freestyle machines (the bars have virtually nothing decent sugarfree for us type 2 diabetics) and no bartenders involved in serving us there. This is a BAD move, Royal. :-(((((
IF PRICE INCREASES FOR DRINK PACKAGES I WILL BE GOING OVER TO NOWEIGN CRUISE LINES WHERE INTERNET AND DRINKS ARE FREE , I AM DIAMOND PLUS SO IF YOU DONT WANT TO LOSE ALOT OF CUSTOMERS DONT PUT UP PRICES , ME AND MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY CRUISE ROYAL 2 TIMES A YEAR THAT WILL COME TO A END FAST
