lonelysable Posted November 29, 2015 #51 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Just relating my experience as it happened last week. Maybe I was treated differently than they treat everyone else.:rolleyes: When I was on the Epic [and I should have clarified my statement to be limited to the Epic since I can't say what they do on the other ships] and ordered a foo foo drink, ie a blended cocktail - not a martini or a highball, my experience was that unless I specified I wanted a regular glass they served it in a souvenir glass and charged me the extra $2.25. Also in my experience when I finished my drink the waiter took the souvenir glass. When I ordered another drink (unless I specified otherwise) they brought it in a new souvenir glass and charged me another $2.25 for that. Since I saw them washing the souvenir glasses at the bar, I'm assuming they resold them. In my case, in my stateroom, whenever we brought a glass back it was taken when the room was cleaned. Again, I'm sure if we mentioned it they would have left them. So, I'm just trying to give people a head's up. Unless you want the souvenir glass, ask for a regular glass and pay the lower price. Is the souvenir glass included if you get the drink package? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suometar Posted November 29, 2015 #52 Share Posted November 29, 2015 If you read the Freestyle Daily, on the bottom of page two is the Bar Manager's Specials. It gives the drink of the day, and the price, with the option of getting it in the souvenir cup for an additional charge. For example: (from Norwegian Star Panama cruise, day 1): Cherry Lime-Aid $6.95 Get it in a souvenir cup for $1.75 more So it is only the drink of the day that you can opt to get in a souvenir cup for an additional charge.

Sauer-kraut Posted November 29, 2015 #53 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Is the souvenir glass included if you get the drink package? That's a good question, I don't think I would have resurrected a 5 year old thread to ask it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingofwylietx Posted November 29, 2015 #54 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Is the souvenir glass included if you get the drink package? Yes. Our last cruise in May, we had several souvenir glasses. We had the UBP, we were not charged anything for them. I think we only brought 1 or 2 of them home. Nobody took them from our cabin, unlike the OP's experience.

Thank you for the information, I will pay attention when ordering my drinks. Good to know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattymo Posted December 21, 2015 #60 Share Posted December 21, 2015 With the UBP you don't get a souvenir glass. I asked for an empty one to pay for and the bartender just gave it to me ( I always tip $1 with each drink ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chars Posted December 21, 2015 #61 Share Posted December 21, 2015 A few times when I thought it was fun to drink out of the NCL souvenier glass, I would purchase the first drink and pay for the glass. Then I would order the rest of my drinks in a regular glass and just pour it in the fancy glass. They usually hold the same amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
