If only the advertised prices of a Cruise were true prices. So much more to add on once booked.
But to answer your question I read somewhere (I could be wrong) that the break even was 5 drinks per day?
My advice would be to cruise a lot this year and take advantage of those double points and get to Diamond where you get 4 free drinks per day.
Level up with Diamond Plus at 5.
Pinnacles have open bar at all times. (kidding)
thanks for the input. I think I'm one cruse away from becoming a Diamond Member

Beer is about $8.
Mixed drinks about $10-$13.
When deciding, don't forget to consider port days, when you (most likely) wouldn't be on the ship for much of the day.
good point

Still trying to decide on whether or not to purchase drink package, but with some feedback from fellow Cruise Critic members, hopefully I will make my decision. Sailing on Oasis of the Seas next year (I realize prices may change between now and then), so I"m wondering what domestic beers costs per purchase, and mixed drinks (ex. gin/tonic), and also the slushy drinks like a pina colada costs if I purchase individually. And I also realize the 18% gratuity is tacked on. Please be kind in your responses. No mean spirited comments. Thanks

What is current cost of beer (domestic), mixed drinks, and the fancy frozen drinks on Oasis? Thanks for the info.

Not a big drinker so I'm unsure if I should purchase the drink package. Just wondering what the cost of domestic beers run on Oasis of the Seas, if I chose to pay as I go.

Thanks all - your feedback was helpful

Two quick questions for anyone who can help:
1. Is there traditional "Formal Nights (2)" on Anthem of the Seas? We sail on 10/27/18. I've read on CC that there is no formal night any longer on Anthem, but when we called RCCL we were told there are two Formal Nights in the Main Dining Room. We always dress appropriately for dinner, but would like to know if I need to be Suite and ladies in our group need to bring formal attire.
2. as you can tell by my code name, I'm from the Philadelphia area. Eagle play in London on the Sunday of our Cruise. What are the chances that the game will be shown on TV's? Is there a sports bar on Anthem? or should I search for televised game at other locations on the Ship (Schooner Bar, Casino Bar, etc.) ?
-
Will be sailing on Anthem in late October 2018. It's a seven day cruise. How many formal nights will there be? One or two? Also, we are sailing over Halloween. Will the cruise have any special events on Halloween Day itself?
thanks.

Fantastic. Thank you for the quick response - much appreciated.:D

What address do I need to use with my GPS if I'm driving to Port Liberty?

I received notice yesterday from RCCL that the 08/31/18 sailing of Adventures of the Seas has been cancelled.
They said the ship has been re-deployed. What does that mean?
RCCL has given us three option: 1. refund
2. Book a RCCL in May for same $ and onboard credit
3. Book any other available cruise for same category and OB Credit
not sure of all option details, but those are general terms.
Does anyone know anything I should be aware of before I proceed to re-book?
Helpful feedback would be appreciated.

Thought I was Diamond Member, but found out I'm Emerald Member. Just a few more points till I become Diamond. I have a question about Drink Package Specials for Emerald Member.
I realize RCCL has drink package special offers once in a while for Diamond Members, but do they ever have special deals for drink packages for Emerald Members. I frequently check my cruise planner for specials, but I don't want to waste my time all over the next few month if specials offers are only offered to Diamond Class members and higher.
-
thanks all for the helpful info.
Will regularly check my planner as recommended.

I am a Diamond Member. Just booked our cruise for next year.
Does RCCL ever offer any type of discount, coupons or special deals on their drink packages prior to the actual cruise date. I will most likely purchase the drink package, but I was just wondering if I should wait and see if they offer any special deals over the next year until my actual cruise departure date arrives.

Dear Buckimion,
Our group of 8 just returned from 9 day cruise upon GOS on Saturday @ 08/27/16. We stopped at Bahamas on Tuesday @ 08/23/16. Just outside Port gate, we connected with cab driver who took all 8 of us in large air-conditioned cab for $4.00 per person (round-trip) to view Atlantis. We only wanted a one hour quick tour of some island attractions, but mostly see Atlantis close-up. Cabbie was nice, talkative, and informative. He stuck to one hour schedule. We also tipped him for his service. There were three ships in port at the time so cabbies were not hurting for business. You need to barter slightly. Eventually, you'll find a cabbie to accommodate your needs. Good luck.

Our group of eight will be on same cruise. We have 13 year old and 15 year old joining us for first time. We have same concerns about keeping them occupied and not wanting them to be glued to their phones. Phones will be locked away in safes. Five in our group sailed Grandeur for the first time last year. We always sailed Voyager Class. We all really like Grandeur. Like ship's layout and especially centrum area. We booked this cruise while on our 2015 Grandeur Cruise. Booked same rooms and got a real good deal. No complaints about Grandeur. Beautiful ship with lots to do. Hoping for smooth sailing with two "no phone" teenagers.

Fantastic

What are some of the attractions at Atlantis Resort?

Helpful Info - thanks all.

Going on same cruise in August. Are there any "theme" nights for passengers?
ex: White Night (everyone wears something white), seventies disco night, etc?
Were there any at sea days where they prepared/served special food on pool side? did you happen to notice if pools are available for late night swimming or are pools drained and cleaned at nights? Thanks

Thank you

I've forgotten the web site that can tell me the number of ships in a particular Port during a specific date. Can someone please remind me what the web site is called? Many thanks
