Sequence everytime. Throw away the box (the board folds), a plastic bag for the cards, the counters have their own bags. Takes 30 seconds to learn, the main rules are printed on the board, infinite permutations and you can play with 2,3,4,6,8,9,10 and 12 players.

The original poster said she would book a different package each which is what I said you couldn't do. I never thought about booking the same and upgrading one. However it still makes no sense as the coffee element, which is what the poster was interested in, remains the same.

Use one Elite internet package first then, if you need to buy a full package part way through there are often discounts. You will still get your Elite discount on the new package. Unless you do a lot of browsing prepare emails off line, then logon, push send, incoming messages will download at the same time, log off. Read new messages off line, repeat twice a day and you will be amazed at how far a 90 minute package will extend.

No aqua and above are only on the AI rates.

Sorry you both have to have the same package. The coffee, teas and chocolate are the same on both packages. For some reason there seems to be an effort to overthink this. All coffees, teas and chocolate hot or iced without alcohol are included in either non alcoholic packages. If you did order something over the package for example a bottle of premium water you would only pay the difference in price plus 20% gratuity on the difference. 💲1extra would cost you 💲1.20.

On selected cruises only, never on TA's , the new system is just great everyone has choices.

Exactly - everyone who liked AI can still have the benefits, anyone who doesn't (for medical reasons alcohol in any form is a "no, no" for us) now has the choice. Its a win, win for everyone. We have already changed back to X for a cruise which we were looking to do on Princess.

Plus the long time for the Covid tests and isolation periods before they can work on the ship currently around 4 weeks minimum from being offered the job to starting work.

The point is you now have choices which AI took away. We don't need unlimited WiFi as we prepare all messages off line, turn on WiFi push send, incoming messages arrive at the same time, turn off WiFi and check messages. Repeat twice a day have never used one 240 minute package. We don't drink alcohol just the coffees, teas and chocolate. We get our was water during the Elite Happy time - 2 bottles/cans each. Also 2 juices which we take to dinner. We pay the tips up front and would be happy to have them included in the basic price just as X does in Australia and New Zealand where it is marketed as tips not required.

The clue is in the title. Any non alcoholic coffee, tea, chocolate is in the package. Any of the former with alcohol added is not. Enjoy the Cafe Al Bacio.

Just go with the flow, expect change and adapt as you go. If you want certainty don't book a cruise or any other trip and just stay home. We have done 4 cruises since August 2021 and all have been subject to changes during the trip.

Same ports as Celebrity which operates fine with no smoking anywhere within the ship.

On Silhouette 2 tables with a 💲5 minimum and 1 with a 💲10 minimum. Promotional chips can only be played on the inside numbers e.g. not red/black, odd/even.
