gillo Posted January 5, 2013 #1 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Are there any europeans that can who tell me anything about bar prices please. I have noticed on the forum that a lot of our American friends are talking about drink packages, all the prices they are quoting are in $. To make a real comparison i need to know Euro or Pound. I am going on the Serenade in June, the new photos look stunning. Happy holidays Gill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc24cruiser Posted January 5, 2013 #2 Share Posted January 5, 2013 As it is an American company all the prices aboard the ship is in dollars. I have just googlee the exchange rate when I need to know how much things are in pounds. This is the exchange for today...$10 is £6.15 and for euro to pounds it is 10 euros is £12.33. I an going to check if these have changed before my cruise in April so that I can work out if something is good value or not. But another way to look at it is....if you are putting a deposit down for your account, check how much it is in dollars. That way you know how much of a chunk of your money you are spending each time :-) To further answer your question I think the soft drink package is $6 a day, which works out as £3.70 ish a day...them gratuities on top. The cans of drink are about $2.50 each so if you drink more than 2 a day you will be saving money. For our 5 night cruise it is $30, which is about £19, with gratuities it works out as about £21.85. Hope that helps :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gillo Posted January 5, 2013 Author #4 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Thanks JC. Read on here today that are selling a beer and wine drinks package for $45. Done a converter this comes to £28. Just wondered if anyone knows the price of a beer or wine to see how many drinks i need to do to go into credit. This $45 included the 15%. Thanks Gill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best value seemed to be in the mixed drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
