izzypooch Posted August 22, 2010 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Leaving tomorrow for the Immagination (Yeah!). Will be buying the soda card but was wondering if that also includes a thermos-type mug/cup. The last couple of times I cruised Royal Carribbean it did, but wasn't sure what Carnival does. Thanks for a quick reply from someone who recently sailed and bought the soda package on Immagination so I'll know whether or not to pack my own little bubba keg.

FrogFritter Posted August 22, 2010 #2 Share Posted August 22, 2010 You do not get a mug on Carnival with the soda card, but I believe it is because they use cans to fill your glass. On RCI, it is fountain soda so they use the travel mug. This was my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savs Posted August 22, 2010 #3 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Nope sorry, not mug was given to us when we bought 4 soda cards. I don't think it has anything to do with the cans, since they could just pour the soda into the mug. I just think they do things differently. I found when I went on the RCL, they did give us the mugs, but we never used them. Too big to carry around everywhere. We just went to the bars and they would give us plastic cups and that worked out great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerose Posted August 22, 2010 #4 Share Posted August 22, 2010 If you bring your own mug on board, will they fill that up for someone with a Soda sticker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugeniuss Posted August 22, 2010 #5 Share Posted August 22, 2010 as stated, the mug is not included, but you do get a couple dollar discount on a mug at the time of the card purchase.... I believe it winds up being about 5 bucks.... the mug is pretty good in quality, so I got one.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted August 22, 2010 #6 Share Posted August 22, 2010 If you bring your own mug on board, will they fill that up for someone with a Soda sticker? depends on the server- we never had luck with doing that but have read here people do it. On Princess they give you a mug but we didnt feel like carrying it around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkJellyFish06 Posted August 22, 2010 #7 Share Posted August 22, 2010 My dad bought the soda card last year. When buying it, he also bought a mug, that he got a few dollars off since he purchased the two together. It leaked, so it was a waste of money for us. Luckily we had brought our own bubba keg mugs. It was great having them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ship Addict Posted August 22, 2010 #8 Share Posted August 22, 2010 If you purchase the Carnival mug at the same time as your soda card, it is only $4.95 instead of $6.96. Yes, they will fill this instead of a regular plastic cup when you use your soda card. Now, if you brought your 64oz bubba keg to them for a refill, they would probably refuse or only give you one cup's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinManiac Posted August 22, 2010 #9 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Will they give you the can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LINANRIC Posted August 22, 2010 #10 Share Posted August 22, 2010 No they will not.. WHY can't they just give you a can instead of pouring it into a plastic glass...I would much rather have the CAN...:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eeyore_Lover Posted August 22, 2010 #11 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I always just take my own insulated cup and transfer the contents once I get the plastic cup from the pool server. No one has ever said anything to me about doing that. Nothing worse than watered down Coke from the melted ice cubes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinManiac Posted August 22, 2010 #12 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I prefer pouring a small amount from the can into a glass full of ice and replenish when needed. Stays fresher. If not, I like to drink straight from a cold can. Sounds like neither impossible, so I will not buy a card. So there Carnival!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayvan Posted August 22, 2010 #13 Share Posted August 22, 2010 No they will not.. WHY can't they just give you a can instead of pouring it into a plastic glass...I would much rather have the CAN...:) They wont give you the can because it's much easier to control the clean up this way. The can's are recyclable and people would be throwing them in the garbage and leaving them all over the ship.... of course i don't really know the reason but this sound to me like it may be the case...;) We have bought the mugs and they are great... a good size and you can use them with the pop or juice or even hot drinks...
