Churro Waffles- Concierge Only?

[dreamer17555]

What will be the next item that gets hit with a pay wall?

Not a paywall per se... but I could see them cutting out turndown service for all non concierge rooms (I know some don't enjoy it but I really, really do.)

I could see with the lines for the shows getting so crazy and how everyone wants an early BG, DCL coming out with their own add on for "priority access" that is behind concierge but before general public for boarding and seats to shows.

We lost Happy Hours already and now the churro waffles. We lost the live animation classes and its now basically a glorified Youtube tutorial playing on a screen... Heck I could see the Royal Gathering being added as an upcharge activity with the direction DCL seems to be heading in

I think the bigger picture need to not be on if you personally like turn down, eat churro waffles, used the happy hour specials, or miss the live animation classes but that these cuts might eventually come for the very thing that you do enjoy if we just keep allowing DCL to make these choices without changing spending our habits and not sharing our negative feedback directly with DCL.

I read online (so I take it with a grain of salt) that they will be served in Concierge and offered for a fee to non concierge...so an upcharge to have them. Again, this has not been confirmed by anything official from Disney. I would be very upset by this....just on principle. First charging for snack foods in the pubs when it used be complimentary and now, if true, upcharging for the churro waffles. Leaves a bitter taste...

Ok, this is what I read. What is with them charging for snacks in a pub but they were free previously? Can you explain?

Happy Hours? I rarely drink, but I will every now and then. Did they replace it with Sad Hours?

Pay for early dining? Toilet paper-? Cha-ching!

We also lost character breakfast on sailings with 3+ sea days, ice sculptures and all the fun decorations on embarkation day.
I really hope they don't stop evening turn down. It's just a part of cruising that I enjoy. Not to mention all the bunk beds and Murphy beds to be set up.

It is starting to feel like death by a thousand cuts honestly. Several of the Marvel Day at Sea sailings in 2026 are not having pirate night fireworks when in the past themed cruises have had both (on different nights). I know many ppl were excited to see all the discounts for DCL but this is sadly the fall out- to keep profits where they have been DCL will start cutting back more and more...

Think dcl are realisng they have too many ships now for a premium service and will becoming a cheaper and more basic service. Very sad.
