KevinsCruising Posted April 5, 2012 #1 Share Posted April 5, 2012 If NCL is reading this, I think it would be a great idea to add to the Bon Voyage list, the capability of ordering someone a bucket of beer to be in their state room. Some people don't like wine but would really appreciate a bucket of ice cold beer in their room............ I know I would :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaShark Posted April 5, 2012 #2 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I believe that NCL does not offer items through the Bon Voyage program that you could simply purchase onboard the ship. It would be redundant at best. If you want a bucket of beer for your stateroom, you can simply pick one up at any bar onboard. If its a matter of someone else paying for your bucket of beer, they can simply buy OBC for you through the Bon Voyage program and you could buy the bucket of beer using that OBC. Either way...you're covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know about ordering the OBC but I like the idea of having a bucket waiting for them when they open their stateroom door. Now thats a Bon Voyage !!

MCAT48 Posted April 5, 2012 #5 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I second this idea. I just purchased the captains choice bv gift for myself id rather have beer instead!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicorn Posted April 5, 2012 #6 Share Posted April 5, 2012 This would be great. The wines on the Bon Vongage Gifts are the usual wine you can purchase on board so why not this as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know about ordering the OBC but I like the idea of having a bucket waiting for them when they open their stateroom door. Now thats a Bon Voyage !! I totally agree. Just bought Bon Voyage wine for a honeymoon couple leaving this weekend, but they don't even like wine.. A couple of buckets would have been a GREAT choice..

firstprincesscruise Posted April 6, 2012 #12 Share Posted April 6, 2012 That would be great for our upcoming Gem cruise. DH and I both would rather a couple buckets of ice cold beer then a bottle of wine. I am the only one that likes wine and even I would rather the beer. Hopefully NCL gets on board with us. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting it on Facebook. Tell NCL to come to this blog and comment so we can read their answer. They could even get cool looking Bon Voyage buckets just for the pre-orders !

2Cruise4Ever Posted April 6, 2012 #19 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I totally agree.... a bucket of beer as a gift would be GREAT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leekel619 Posted April 6, 2012 #20 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Nice idea. They must have their reasons. Grab one at a bar on your way to the stateroom. Leave it there and grab another when you go back out! Don't forget to save your receipts for the bucket deposit/return.

seafish Posted April 6, 2012 #22 Share Posted April 6, 2012 YES - YES totally agree on a Beer Package - should be available through room service. Other cruise lines do - very convenient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victress2007 Posted April 6, 2012 #23 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Isn't cold beer already in the mini fridge? Ok, not a bon voyage gift, but still, cold beer in the room. Vic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
