Fpacifico Posted October 16, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Thanks SO much! This is exactly what we were looking for. We signed up for the beverage package today. Happy Cruising, Lynn You will love it, we do it and we are never sorry. You also will get premium wine selection at the chef’s table. We tried multiple drinks, if you don’t like it, you don’t feel like you have to drink it, just try something else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lornaburg Posted October 18, 2017 #5 Share Posted October 18, 2017 We've never had a drinks package before. When you "buy" a drink at the bar do you have to tell them you have a package or does your card tell them automatically? What about in the restaurant? Because everyone gets wine included how do the waiters know you have a drinks package and require upgraded wine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceLovesSailing Posted October 18, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 18, 2017 When you get a drink they'll ask your room number, that's it. The computer knows you have the package and won't charge your account. At the restaurants, A year ago, we told the host/hostess. Sometimes they told the wait staff. Other times we needed to remind them. Once they knew, they only offered the upgraded wines. I've heard they now know if you have the drink package based on your room number given when seated.

Bill'sBride Posted October 22, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 22, 2017 They know when you are seated, but if you ask for a wine list when you sit it triggers them again. At the bars and buffet you will have to remind them of your cabin # for their accounting. It was never a problem.

LEESRE Posted October 22, 2017 #8 Share Posted October 22, 2017 "I've heard they now know if you have the drink package based on your room number given when seated." NOT always true, we have just sailed on the Viking Sun and we had to remind the wait staff each evening that we had the package. Even between the first glass and the second glass at dinner sometimes they did not remember and tried to pour the all inclusive wines into our glasses.

impala1ss Posted October 25, 2017 #9 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I have a slightly different question. I have seen the bar list of wines on-line. I'm assuming these can be purchased by the glass. If we get the "silver seas " package do we get to choose only from the wines on the menu or are there wines available in addition to those on the menu?
