earljr Posted July 20, 2010 #26 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Hi all Just received an answer to a Email I sent to a pal of mine currently on the Emerald. He says the drinks at the platinum, elite,and suite evening cocktail party are $5.00 for the drink of the day. The $2.99 drinks are in all bars etc after 8:00 p.m. Are different ships doing different things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted July 20, 2010 #27 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Earl, maybe I got confused over this, but I swore they had changed it to $2.99 for the cocktail hour from the $5 previously. Maybe we will have to wait for reports to dwindle back in to see if this was just a 'test run' for a couple of ships, as Princess sometimes does. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toto2Kansas Posted July 20, 2010 #29 Share Posted July 20, 2010 I sure hope they have the test on the Grand in Sept.:D:D I would think this would be a real calling card to bring those Elite/Platinum passengers into the cocktail hour. One drink at $5 is almost not even worth the effort IMHO! But I agree Earl...............test away, just make sure it is being tested on the next ship we sail on, maybe we would attend these functions more often. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know people seem to enjoy this but personally I would rather pay another dollar or two for the drink of my choice at another bar where there is better people watching or entertainment :) Let's hope they change to 2.99 by september...

coconutmonkey Posted July 20, 2010 #32 Share Posted July 20, 2010 I was on the Sapphire princess in June and the drinks for elite/platinum were $2.99. Great deal and great margaritas. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
