Whether this group was booked directly with RSSC or GCT it should make no difference here at all. The exact same thing could have happened if GCT was not involved at all.

Groups like to do things together and they want this handled and it can affect other passengers.

We took the whole grill one night on PIP I am sure others wanted to eat there that night but the "group" had it. On DDD we dominated the CLUB on MINT we were very noticeable in STARS and the VOF - Voyager lounge Kareoke night --- well!!!

However other than the grill other passengers were joining in with us and I do think there is a difference in a "company" group as opposed to a group of people like LCT.

I was on the Diamond once. ONLY 20 passengers not AMX. Well the 20 found each other and we became the "other" group. We still had a good time.

All cruise lines take groups. They are a lot of profit and no cruise line will turn them down or limit the number in a group. This is reality.

It sounds like that the only real problem was the first night and I think that there is no doubt that this was a lack of judgement on RSSC part - either corporate or the Hotel Directors.

Marc is right here. How this group was booked through GCT or direct with RSSC should have no bearing on the treatment of the other passengers aboard.
