Less than a week after Carnival Cruise Line announced room service would no longer be complimentary on its ships, the company said it is waiting to make those changes until a better plan could be put in place.
According to a Facebook post from Carnival brand ambassador John Heald, the cruise line revealed that it was evaluating the adjustments made to its room service plan initially scheduled to take effect in January.
Heald said the company was working to “balance the interests of our guests with our efforts to reduce food waste costs.” As a result, no changes will be made until a new plan can be developed and finalized.
While Carnival cruisers won’t have to worry about paying for their room service for the foreseeable future, the cruise line is working hard to start charging for the service despite the delay.
The original changes were announced last week, with officials saying Carnival ships would be switching to an a la carte stateroom service menu starting in mid-January 2019. Prices for a wide variety of menu items were expected to range from $2 to $5 per item.
As part of the original plan, passengers would have been charged for lunch, dinner and late-night menu items, but continental breakfast would remain free of charge.
