Interesting subject. I read one article that said the Royal Group had 4 ships capable.

I know Apex was built with it. I don't see anything that points to a particular ship in the RC line.

Yes + 18% grats.

How many drinks you get for the 15 punches depends on the kind of drink, the barista and the ship's rules, that's why you should wait till on board and ask before buying. It is one of the very few things that is the same price in the planner as on board.

That doesn't really work, as who do you ask? There will always be different people working, and multiple places you can get a coffee.

You be nice, have a dollar bill in your hand for a tip, one punch:)

(but I already paid a tip) $.36 a punch:)

You can also email the cruise line and let them know the needs you are looking for and it will be included in your information to help those serving you.

Just email: special_needs@rccl.com

Give them Guests name, booking number, ship name and sail date.

Can you please elaborate, if possible, on how you were able to upgrade the drink package for only one person in the cabin?

 

Not sure about him, but I booked separate reservations, one room had my wife and daughter, and other room had my son and I. He is 13 so I didn't have to pay for him to upgrade:) so I got a single.  I don't drink coffee, but would get them for my wife and daughter. They pretty much knew that as one was non fat and one almond milk.  So I didn't push the subject of two drinks, which is what is spelled out in the rules. Also says no sharing, lol.

Thanks.   Not to be a kill-Joy (no pun), but heard reports of stomach virus.    Know how many affected ? 

The one before us around 200, this one I heard around 40, but no one transported to any hospital on mine. 

Many were sea sick as the boat rocks quite a bit. It was a little windy. 

They were doing everything they could possibly do to prevent it, short of dipping us fully in antibacterial spray.

I commend all they were doing. 

Hi,

Just got off the Joy.

Yes Veuve is certainly on the list.

We had Veuve mimosas in the Garden in the morning and took remainder with us. 

Had several at dinner.

I am mainly a scotch drinker so I certainly scored. 

Was drinking $100+ doubles/triples  of Macallan Quest, Macallan Enigma, and Macallan Terra. 

Other premium drinks all day. Water bottles are certainly a plus to have as well as, red bull ect. 

Starbucks was a bit of a pain as in the beginning they would only allow one drink at a time, and I always wanted to get two. 

So I would have to go from one to the next, or get back in line. Was a little mad at first, but they were just doing what they were told. 

The last few days they relaxed and let me have them. 

Very few people on the ship had this package. So the bars know you by name when you order with is great.

They take extra care of you.  

Best upgrade on a ship I have ever done. 

I have a hidden camera that I take along for hotels and cruise cabins.

It clears the air very quickly, and is hard to refute.

They are quite cheap now, and come in just about anything you can think of.

Amazon even has a huge collection for sale.
